Between Two Fucks - Charmax

Charlotte had been enjoying the last few months more than she had the last few years. Ever since England, she'd felt better. Max was a large part of that, for obvious reasons, but it went beyond. Miles and Spencer's relationship had come out of England right alongside hers and Max's. She'd have been lying if she said she anticipated her best friend and her brother's relationship less than her own. Seeing them both together and happy was just the icing on the cake for her.

But it did help that she had Max. Their honeymoon state was a sickening display of affection for everyone around, but she was absorbing it all as much as she could. Every kiss or touch or as Miles called it 'grope,' made her feel like weight was being lifted from her shoulders. Except it was always replaced because although they'd been happy as could be, there still hung this dark cloud over Charlotte's head. Her ability she'd always thought was so much easier than Miles' because she could manipulate other people's feelings where he could only ever feel and understand feelings. However, her own emotions were far more erratic than her twin's and she envied him that.

Charlotte had been distracting herself with endless sex and excitement in her new relationship, but she knew that eventually she would need to discuss it with Max. If by some miracle they got more serious, she knew it could cause severe problems for them down the road.

She was breathing rather heavily and shaking from the sudden chill against her bare shoulders. Char nuzzled against his chest for warmth and smiled at his greeting before she rolled her eyes, "I can't believe I sleep with you sometimes." Her fingers slid into his hair and she curled her fingers around it, giving his lips a light kiss, "You're lucky you're cute."

You're so very special, but I'm a creep.

His grin made her melt and she couldn't stop looking at him with that silly look everyone got when they first started dating. She was becoming a walking cliche with the butterflies and the incessant making out, but he made it worth it. Charlotte laughed and bit her lip, "You know, you're probably not even wrong." When he rested his head against her stomach, her fingers ran through his hair.

His smart comment made her snort and she flicked him in the nose when he looked at her, "You were a perv long before me, Parker." Her fingers went back to stroking his hair and she closed her eyes. She could have fallen asleep, but his question made her peek her eyes open. "Are you seriously asking me that? As if I wouldn't have beat you to a pulp if I did mind," It wasn't as though she was some weak, little girl that didn't know how to say no. He may have been cute, but he wasn't that cute. Besides her ability could have always nudged him in a different direction of emotions if she tried. He seemed susceptible enough to it, given that he adored her.

Charlotte continued letting her fingers move through his hair and to his jaw, admiring the sharpness of his features. She adored him as much as she was pretty sure he adored her. "Max, can we have a teensy bit of time for real talk? No distractions until after?"

Charlotte turned on her side and propped herself up on her elbow so that she was facing him. Although she had called for a serious topic of conversation with no distractions, she still couldn't help but lean forward so that she could kiss him while he was close enough to. She had to worry a little about their conversation, for fear of how he'd react to knowing she could manipulate emotions. If he took it the wrong way, she could lose him and it was kind of nerve-wracking.

She settled back on her elbow and sucked in her lower lip, contemplating on how to start. She reached out for his hand so that she could lace their fingers together and she took the comfort from that to begin. "Too much," She answered with a light laugh. Taking a deep breath, she squeezed his fingers and continued, "I need to tell you something that might be a little freaky, but like, I'm not any different, okay?" It was always weird confessing being a mutant to a non-powered human. She'd lucked out in the respect that her family was made up of them and her best friend was one. Even her older brother had found a powered girl. And yet, there she was, sitting with the only non-powered one of the bunch. Aside from the England clan.

Her eyes dropped and she sighed, "I'm, uh, I've got...I've got this ability."

His reaction caught her by surprise and she placed her hand on his cheek as he pressed his lips to hers. While it wasn't what she'd expected, she reveled in the dizzying effect the kiss had on her. He pulled back and she settled herself again, trying to regroup the thoughts that had just scattered everywhere. She pecked him on the lips once more before she flashed him a smile, "You haven't done anything wrong, babe. Pinkie promise."

His curiosity made her grin sheepishly and she squeezed his fingers once more. "Okay, okay, now that you got that off your chest," She gave him a smile and sighed, "It's emotional manipulation. It sounds way worse than it is! Like just because I can coax you into feeling something doesn't mean that I have. I swear. I pinkie swear!" Charlotte's words came into a rush and she tried to slow down, "That's why my emotions are all haywire and why I have panic attacks and get so crazy sometimes. Aside from my natural personality, but like, yeah. That's uh...that's all."

The fact that he wasn't getting up and moving to retrieve his clothing was a good sign. She could tell by the look on his face initially that he was concerned about it, but he wasn't running for the hills. Not yet. He even laughed at the way she was forcing all of the words that were in her head out as fast as she could. She just wanted to be sure that he heard it all before he drew any conclusions about them and about her.

His fingers slid through her hair and across her cheek and there was a tingling the whole way where his skin touched hers. Her heart expanded in her chest and she smiled, leaning into his hand. "It's not. At all. Ever." Charlotte scooted closer to him and wrapped her arms around his waist, "Okay, now that I got that out. I guess I should probably ask you if you have any questions or concerns about it." She realized that she was breaking rules by cuddling up next to him, but she didn't want to be too far from him anymore.

"I should probably mention that you're kind of the only normie in a sea of powered people. So uh, I'm sorry I roped you into that."

The explanation he gave over his conclusions made about the twins made sense. She had seen the way people looked at them when they were together, like they were the same person in two bodies. There were some people that looked at it as freaky or weird, but she appreciated that he hadn't been too weirded out by it. She nodded, "Yeah, it's a little intense, isn't it?"

Her cheek rested against his chest and she was happy that the conversation, as short as it was, hadn't backfired on her at all. Of course there was more to it than just what she was capable of, but she didn't want to get into the messy details yet. They had barely started dating, there was plenty of time for her to mess it up later. Her fingers traced patterns on his chest and she nuzzled against him, "You took that a lot better than I expected actually. I mean, yeah, we're kind of all surrounding normal people, but..." She had to think about the way her parents had reacted.

They'd been uncomfortable about the twins' abilities and downright unaccepting of Will's. It wasn't wrong for her to believe that he could react poorly. Charlotte looked up at him and smiled, "I knew I made a good choice with you."

HIs comment about Spencer made her snort and outright laugh. He was not the only one who thought so. Charlotte grinned up at him, "Who's to say we don't?" If there was anyone that she loved more than her brother or her boyfriend it was easily Spencer, they were soulmates of a different kind and she couldn't imagine her life without her best friend. That they both had boyfriends was a non issue because Miles was fully aware of their closeness and Max didn't seem to have too much of a complex about it either.

Her fingers traced patterns against his chest and she laughed again, "Oh you sure are special, most definitely." But she adored him and she didn't mind that he was the only one without an ability. She still thought he was incredible and he came with such little baggage that she wondered why someone like him would ever want to settle for a girl like her.

They rolled over and she was pinned down, her eyes lifted to his and she narrowed them. Her adorable pervert. "This is not healthy, I think you may be a sex addict," She smirked playfully and arched an eyebrow, waiting for him to disagree. Charlotte would be okay with him being a sex addict with only her though.

You're so very special, but I'm a creep.
