Others (Open)

Emilie had to give him a weak smile when he said he wasn't someone to let the past influence the future. But what exactly was he meaning by that? Was he saying they had a future? Then she felt immediately silly for thinking it. They had only just met, of course he wasn't talking about a future for them together.

"Alright." She then walked over to him, but here and now, there was nothing she could do for him. They needed peace and quiet, so he could concentrate on trying to learn to control the voices he hears. She knew of one person who could really help him, he was a telepath himself, and that was Matt Parkman. She hadn't met him in this time line, but she knew him well in the future, and she knew he would do what he could to make Matt's life easier.

She then had to laugh to herself, realising they both shared the same name. As she had hugged him and ran her hand through his hair, she noticed him looking into her eyes, and she felt a rush of, she wasn't sure what she felt, but it was nice. He then spoke about going somewhere it was just the two of them.

"Sure, we can go to my place." The apartment her mom had, was quite a big one, and had a lot of space, in fact if he really needed somewhere to stay, her mom might let him bunk with them. It would get him off the streets. She then began to lead him in the direction of where she stayed, using a hand to rub at his back a few times. She was still very upset herself, and was finding it difficult to keep her emotions in check.

However, as she walked back to her house, she couldn't help herself but think how incredibly handsome he was, and she felt her face flush slightly. Could this maybe lead to the start of something? Or was she way ahead of herself? He was older than her after all. They were soon back at her apartment building, and within five minutes they were inside her bedroom. She didn't even put any music on, Matt would need total silence. She sat down on her bed and patted the place next to her, her eyes still brimmed with tears.

As Matt walked with Emilie, his mind was flooded with the thoughts of people around him... It was worse than in the park. The flood of thoughts made his vision blurry and at times he would blackout for a moment. But soon they were at Emilie's apartment building and with the voices dying down, Matt couldn't help but sigh with relief. Soon they were in her bedroom, and Matt could only hear Emilie's thoughts. It wasn't as bad as it had been before... It was only one voice instead of hundreds.

"Oh thank you god... That's so much better..." Matt said, standing up straight and rubbing his head. He looked up as Emilie's thoughts came into his head and he couldn't help but smile.
"Handsome huh... Thanks." Matt said, sitting down next to Emilie.
"So... you wanna teach me to stop hearing about how good looking I am?" He said with a chuckle.

*Sorry, short muse today*

{ooc - we can all have days like that - mine just happened to be raising the roof last night lol}

Once they had reached Emilie's apartment she couldn't help but give a slight smile and chuckle when Matt thanked god, assuming that this was because he was now only hearing her thoughts. Wait, he was only hearing her thoughts. Hadn't she just been busy saying how handsome he was? Ah well, it wasn't anything she wouldn't have said to his face anyway. Even if it did make her blush.

"It can be a bit of a head rush at first. Glad it seems less busy in your head now." She meant it as well. She'd only mimicked telepathy once or twice and even then it was by accident. It was an ability she didn't like much even if it was good to know what Matt was thinking about her right now. Although, she wasn't anything special, so why would he be thinking about her at all for?

She couldn't help but blush again as Matt confirmed that he had indeed read her thoughts when she was busy thinking how handsome he was. "Well you are, and you're welcome." She told him to his face, but she was still a tiny bit embarrassed about it, and so her face was still a little red.

"Well, I actually don't mind you hearing how good looking you are, might give me a red face, but it isn't anything I wouldn't say to your face. I'll try to help, although I think there's someone else who could possibly help you better." Although, how they would be able to get themselves from here to Nevada was another matter. Seeing as Nevada was where Parkman lived in this time line.

"Really, it's all about concentration and focus. If you concentrate hard enough, you can either zoom into thoughts, or zoom out of them." She wondered how easy he would find it, and if she should put it to the test. Sometimes it was the only way to find out if it had worked or not.

"Alright, try reading my thoughts now. If you concentrate hard enough you hopefully wont hear what I'm about to think." She said grinning slightly, the tears from earlier forgotten, although, she was still shaken about the whole Pinehearst deal.

The fact I was thinking how handsome you are, should tell you what I would love to do right now. Kiss me Matt. Kiss me. She smirked to herself, at those thoughts, but if he had been concentrating hard enough, he wouldn't have been able to read any of them. Even if that was a sad thing.

[shadnicth]

Matt simply smiled as Emilie commented on his remark to her thoughts. It was cool that she was taking this so good, compared to what had happened when his grandfather had run into a telepath. He was furious for weeks... However when Emilie mentioned someone helping him, he heard the name in his head.
"Matt Parkman? In Nevada?" He said, looking at her with a curious look.
"I have to go to Nevada to have someone help me?" He said with a smirk. He'd never been outside of New York, so it would be interesting to go to Nevada... Maybe he'd stop over in Vegas.

Matt nodded as Emilie began to speak about focusing. Being able to tune thoughts in the sense of zooming in or out of them. He simply nodded as she asked him concentrate, focusing his mind as best he could to block out the thoughts. His face frowned as he closed his eyes to try and increase his focus. Emilie's thoughts were loud and clear at first... but as she began to speak about what she wanted to do, Matt's focus kicked, muffling her thoughts so that it was barely a whisper.

The fact I was thinking how handsome you are, should tell you what I would love to do right n... K... e ...att. ...e. The thought was read as, Matt smiling a boyish grin as he looked at Emilie.
"Hey I did it! I didn't hear... well I heard, but I couldn't make out what you were thinking! It was barely a whisper!" Matt said, looking at Emilie with his eyes seeming to sparkle with joy. He then looked at Emilie as his eyes locked into hers.

"However..." He said, leaning in forward to her, his face close to hers. He could feel her breath on his skin, his eyes still locked into hers, as he brought an arm up to her, placing it on her back, beginning to stroke it gently.

"I don't need to be a psychic to know you want this..."

He leaned in, his lips coming into contact with hers as he kissed Emilie, his other arm moving up and landing on her shoulder.

[emilie]

Emilie laughed at the way Matt picked up on her thoughts about Matt Parkman being able to help him control his ability more, and how he'd have to go to Nevada to do so.

"Yeah, Matt Parkman, he's the one. He's got telepathy, and it's fairly advanced, he should be able to help you control it, better than I can." She then began to wonder when he would leave to go to Nevada, and if he did, would he come back again? Or, would he stay there if he got onto a better thing? She then shook her head, why was she even worrying about that? They'd only met about half an hour ago. It wasn't like they had been dating or anything.

When Emilie had explained to him he had to focus to try and shut out the thoughts, which would be a lot easier right at this moment because it was just herself he would be hearing, but it was a good place to start to try and get that part of his ability under control, she noticed Matt didn't actually say anything, but after a short time, she'd told him to focus and that she was going to think something, and hopefully he wouldn't be able to hear her.

However, the thoughts she had been thinking, she really wouldn't have minded him hearing. The next thing Matt began to speak and she couldn't help but feel slightly disappointed when he said that it had worked, he hadn't heard her. Or more to the point, he had heard, but couldn't make out what she had said. She tired not to show she was upset. "That's good Matt, I'm glad it's worked for you."

She did mean it when she said that. Telepathy could be a curse of an ability to gain if you couldn't control it properly. She saw the happiness in his eyes, they were almost sparkling, and then his eyes seemed to lock with her own. She felt herself feel a little flushed then. Not sure what was going to happen next.

"However?" She questioned his word back to him, but he then got close to her, so close she could feel his breath on her skin, and her own breathing got a little heavier. Was he actually going to kiss her? She then felt an arm round her, his hand on her back stroking it gently, which made her breathing become even more heavier, and her heart pound in her chest.

They barely knew each other, but she knew she was attracted to him, and the way she was feeling now, only proved that fact. Then he said he didn't need to be a psychic to know she wanted this, wanted what? Even though she knew it was a stupid thought the minute she thought it.

Then his lips were on hers and he was kissing her, and she felt his other hand rest on her shoulder. Without a second thought, she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him back, even going as far to slip her tongue in to explore his mouth, and as she did so, she thought he tasted of strawberries, she was feeling quite happy at that moment, and she wasn't about to pull away from any time too soon. However, as they kissed, she still couldn't help but wonder if Matt would come back after his trip to Nevada or not.

[shadnicth]

As Matt kissed Emilie, he could hear her thoughts more clearly now, his mind obviously distracted by what was being said inside of her head. He immediately pulled away from her, as soon as the thought of him possibly not returning from Nevada was heard.
"Whoa, hold on..." He said, looking at Emilie with a concerned look,
"I'm definitely gonna come back... I mean, what kind of person do you think I am?" He said, looking at her with a light grin.

It was hard enough that Matt had lost his family because of his power, actually more along the lines that he had left them in order to protect himself from his crazed grandfather... but that was pretty much the same thing. It was just hard to think that Matt could possibly abandon anyone. He had such an empathetic nature to him.

[emilie]

Emilie was lost in the kiss with Matt, that she was a bit startled when he suddenly pulled away from her, not sure why, or if she had done something wrong. Then when he began to speak and he said 'whoa hold on' with a concerned look on his face, she definitely began to wonder what she had done wrong. Had she deepened the kiss too much too soon, or something? So she just looked back at him with sad eyes, wondering what she had done, and what he was going to say next.

However, when he did begin to speak again, she relaxed a little, she honestly thought she had said or done something wrong to make him pull away from her the way he had. However, it meant he had read her thoughts, so she knew she was going to have to be extra careful with what she was thinking from now on.

"Oh!" Was all she could think of at first, then she smiled at him, "Sorry, I've just not had the best life, and well, I've never really had a boyfriend before, at least, not one whose really stuck around." She knew she should have known better, not everybody was the same, but when you're using to being let down, sometimes it's all you can think about, no matter how nice the person is.

"But to answer your question, I actually think you're a sweet guy, one I wouldn't mind getting to know more. Didn't want you to have to find that out by reading my thoughts." She grinned at him then, before leaning in and giving him a kiss on the cheek, not wanting to take the initiative of kissing him on the lips again, not this soon, she didn't want to appear too eager.

[shadnicth]

"Look... I can get the money off my brother to go to Nevada to see this guy and help me control this power. I'll stay there for a week tops. But I promise that I'll come back. And when I make a promise, I keep it." Matt said, looking at Emilie after she had told him what was on her mind. Even though he had heard it just moments before she spoke, he didn't want to say anything.

"And besides, I still need someone to help me out with this whole being a evolved human thing. Might as well be with the first person who has a power I met." He said, smiling at her.

(Sorry, crappy muse.)

[emilie]

Emilie could only smile at Matt as he explained about getting money from his brother to go to Nevada and promised he would be back saying when he makes a promise he keeps them. "Alright I believe you. I didn't mean to, I'm sorry." She felt her cheeks go a slight shade of pink through embarrassment. She couldn't believe she had acted that way. It was just in this time line Emilie didn't even have any friends, never mind a special friend like she hoped Matt would be, and after the kiss they had shared, she thought that's what he might be.

He then went on to say about needing someone to help him with the whole being an Evolved Human and that it may as well be the first person with a power he had met, meaning herself. She saw him smile, and it made Emilie smile back. She now felt a bit better about it. "Alright, well, I'll be here waiting for you when you get back then." She leaned in to give him another kiss on the cheek then.

[shadnicth]

"Alright then." Matt said as he sat on the bed for a couple of moments that was the awkward silence that seemed to follow events like this.
"Well... I'd better get going." Matt said, getting up off the bed as he looked at Emilie, leaning down and kissing her on the cheek.
"I'll be back soon... I promise." Matt said to her ear while he was close, straightening up and walking to the door, looking back to her.

"See ya round..." He said, walking out to the living room and then exiting the front door.

-Matt Exit-

[emilie]

Finished!
