Today... Today, you just wanted to be alone. There was a... Disturbance. You could feel like something was wrong. El closed the gate last time, so you were a bit confused. You were 002. Another experiment by Brenner who was able to escape the lab. You were lucky enough to get out when you were younger. You were also "adopted" by a lovely couple who had found you that rainy night. Only a few years later did El escape and make her way into town.
You were able to integrate into society pretty quickly. It was one of the quirks of your abilities. You could read minds. You knew what everyone was thinking. Constantly. Sometimes it got a little bit overwhelming. Hearing voices that weren't yours in your head. It was draining. High school was where you met your current boyfriend. Eddie Munson. He was sweet, funny, and overall an amazing boyfriend. He was also odd like you. People outcasted him for liking D&D and metal music, like Metallica. And, people outcasted you originally for having a shaved head in freshman year. And because people, especially teenagers, suck; they held that over you for years. It wasn't too much fun being called 'baldie' sometimes.
But, Eddie. Oh, Eddie. He was your savior. He was your night in black leather. He was your savior from the awful things that happened in those terrible four years. You first met him when some cheerleader captain was calling you names, and making fun of the way you dressed. Eddie just sauntered over and quickly silenced the cheer captain. You were in awe of him. You've never had anyone stand up for you before. He had even turned to look at you as you stared up at him with wide bright eyes; his smile was a bright one from what you remember. He said your shaved head was really metal. Best compliment ever.
You two dated for a long time before he finally confessed his feelings for you. You loved him back. Obviously. Though in the four years you've been dating, you've never told him about your powers. The whole topic scared the crap out of you. You didn't know how he'd react. If he'd be alright with it or if he'd run away. (Not to mention all the times you accidentally read his mind.) Every single day, you prayed that nothing would happen and that no one would find out.
And then today. Everything was going fine until you felt this... Disturbance. You weren't sure what it was but you were able to sense it. You tried to contact El but with no luck, so you couldn't have asked her. So, there you sat in the corner of your room, arms wrapped around your legs as they pressed into your chest. Whatever was happening, it was messing with you. You had this terrible headache, and the voices, they were constant.
"I wonder if I should pick up some bacon while I'm out?"
"Oh, a kitty!"
"John, oh, I could just murder you..."
"Oh my god, she is so annoying."
"Why did I put my keys?"
You gritted your teeth as you grabbed the sides of your head in pain.
"I hope Y/N is okay..."
Your eyes popped open at Eddie's echoey voice in your head. You dropped your hands as you stared at your bedroom door. Your mom gave him the spare key since he stayed the night at your house more than his own. You knew he'd let himself in and come see you. You've been distant for a couple of days. Eddie didn't fall for the 'I'm sick' ploy, you know. You heard him.
Right on cue, your door opened and Eddie peeked in, spotting you in the corner. He furrowed his eyebrows and shut the door behind him, walking over.
"Y/N? Babe? You okay?" He looked worriedly down at you. "What's wrong?" His hand reached towards you, crouching down and cupping your cheeks.
You leaned into his touch, letting out a sigh. "I don't know," You murmured softly. "It's just a headache, don't worry, Eddie." You tried to smile up at him.
Eddie just shook his head slightly, frowning, "Y/N, I know you... You're my girlfriend. I know when something is up. Can you please tell me? You've been hiding from me for days." He practically begged, his brown eyes staring into yours. "You're not breaking up with me, right?" He whispered in horror but you quickly shook your head, grabbing Eddie's wrists.
"No! No, I'm not breaking up with you, Eddie. I promise." You frowned and sighed again. "I'm sorry. I don't know what's going on. But... Something is happening. Please just stay here tonight. Don't leave me alone." You pleaded with him.
Eddie nodded slowly, but he still seemed concerned. "You confuse me girlie." He laughed lightly before he leaned forward and kissed you gently on the lips, "You'll be okay." He smiled before standing, taking you into his arms for a hug.
You curled into his arms, trying to ignore all the voices that continued to resonate in your mind. They were growing louder. You could hear them all now.
"You should have told him. God, you're such a coward." You thought to yourself, your voice pushing through the others in your mind.
"I'm hungry, what should I eat?"
"Oh, I forgot to turn off the stove."
"I swear, I'm not having another kid."
"Where did I put my homework?"
You pushed Eddie away from you, gasping for breath as your face flushed with anger. Eddie's eyes widened as he tentatively reached out toward you.
"Y/N? What's wrong?" He asked as you felt tears burn in your eyes.
You looked up at him with urgency, eyes wide and wet with tears. "Eddie, you have to make them stop." You cried, grabbing at your hair in tight fists.
He pulled you into his arms once more, holding you close. "I will, Y/N. I'll try everything I can. I promise." He brushed some of your hair away from your face. "Baby, please what's going on? Tell me how I can help you." He murmured softly as his thumb wiped away the tears that fell.
You shook your head against his chest, "I don't know how to stop them... Please, Eddie... Do something..." You whimpered and pressed your forehead into his.
His eyes softened with concern as he shifted slightly, looking down at you. He placed the palm of his hand on your cheek and you pressed closer to him, soaking his shirt with your tears.
"They won't stop... Eddie..." You shuddered a bit as the voices grew louder and louder. "Please... Help me." You sobbed, your body trembling uncontrollably as the voices took over. They spoke in unison, echoing off one another.
"I love you." Eddie's voice burst through and into your mind.
His single thought echoed and radiated; surpassing the other people's thoughts. Slowly as the echo murmured out, so did the other voices. Your mind was clearing, silencing, and calming. Soon, the only thing left was his voice. You felt such relief. The pain subsided.
"I love you, Y/N." His voice was calm and soothing.
You gasped, pulling back from him and wiping the tears from your eyes. You gazed up at him with wide eyes, "You love me?" You breathed, pressing your hand to his heart feeling it race.
You hadn't said those three words to each other yet.
Eddie tilted his head as he narrowed his eyes in curiosity. "How did you know?" He asked, face red as he brushed a piece of stray hair away from your face.
You hesitated slightly before speaking, "I... Can read minds." You explained, glancing away from him.
Eddie's mouth dropped open as he stared at you, "That's... You must be joking." He exclaimed and shook his head. You turned to him fully, your brows furrowed in confusion.
"I'm serious, Eddie." You urged him on. "If you really want to know, I'll show you. Just watch. Think about something." You told him.
He stared at you for a moment and you took a deep breath. You closed your eyes as you concentrated. Then, you heard his thoughts, loud and clear.
"Yellow peanut butter monkeys?" You asked, opening your eyes to see Eddie's wide ones.
"No way... How did you do that?" He asked, his voice soft and low.
"I told you. I can read minds. Whatever was happening to me, my mind was overwhelmed with people's voices and thoughts. Most of the time I can block them out, but I haven't lately. It's been getting worse. My powers have gotten stronger." You shrugged, "This time, their voices were louder than usual. I can usually suppress them, but today, they were too loud." You rested your head against his shoulder and squeezed his arm.
"Alright..." He whispered softly.
You shook your head, "I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier. You deserved to know. I was just..." You trailed off, not knowing what else to say.
"Worried?" Eddie finished and you nodded.
"Yeah, a lot."
Eddie shook his own head, "You don't have to be. This is crazy but it is also like super metal. My girlfriend has superpowers." He praised you, squeezing you tightly. "You are so amazing... I love you." He muttered, nuzzling his nose into yours.
Your lip quivered as you blinked back your tears. "I love you too." You whispered, leaning into him as he hugged you. "Thank you, Eddie." You murmured as you sniffled.
Eddie ran his fingers through your hair before he kissed your forehead. "No problem, babe."

"Why was your first thought 'yellow peanut butter monkeys'?"
"Gotta make it random for you."
