I've been all on my own and alone my whole life.

But suddenly there is you all around me, your warmth filling the empty cold inside me,

creeping into every inch of my being, not leaving me a route to avoid you.

Except the flight straight forward – awayfrom you.

You say you know 'everything' about me?

Ha, well, I guess that's inevitable since you're an exceptional telepath.

But do you reallyknow everything?

Or are there things you don't know? Or do you pretend to not know?

Or did they really just slip through your telepathic grasp?

Do you know how much I actually love to hear you call my name?

Never has triggered the sound of a voice more comfort and ease in me.

You make me want to make you call my name.

Over and over again.

And it's the way you call my name that makes me want to follow

you to the end of the world. Enclose you in my arms to never let

you out of my embrace again. Keep you. Protect you.

My adorable, naive telepath.

There was you all around me.

Your voice filled my ears.

Your scent filled my nose.

Youfilled my mind.

I always wondered how it would feel to stroke my fingers through your hair.

Feeling those soft, wavy locks rubbing against my palm.

How it would feel to press my face against your chest and listen to your

calming heart beat all night long.

How it would feel to kiss your lips. Again and again. Until they'd be all

swollen and red and you'd be embarrassed and blushing while telling me to stop.

How it would feel to undress you, bit by bit, laying you naked and defenseless

before me, feel your skin, your heat, smell your sweat, listen to your sweet

sounds of endearment, intensely loving every inch of you – how it would

feel to become one with you.

How it would feel to wake up next to you every morning.

How it would feel to have breakfast together, lunch, supper, dinner –

and those silly British tea times.

How it would feel to have you close to me.

How it would feel to have made you mine.

How it would feel to connect and share our lives – making it one.

How it would feel to have all these things knowing they belonged and knowing they'd stay.

I wanted you by my side.

Did you know all that?

Did you know all that and still let me leave you behind?

Did you, Charles?

I never enacted according to these feelings.

Now you'll never get to know that still -

I want you by my side.

We are the better men.

We are the future of men.

Unstoppable.

Unreachable.

Untouchable.

I am Magneto.
