Exploding Heads

Too little too late did he realize his girlfriend had psychic powers.

Day 6: “Do you like scary movies?” — Scream (1996)

"I don't want to watch this!" Morgan protested again. Devan never listened to her when she said things like this. He had a way of doing whatever he wanted. He'd never raped her but he just always controlled what they watched.

"I just wanna see this once," he said. "I'll hold you if you get scared, babe." There it was. She'd known that was the reason Devan wanted to watch Chainsaw Slayers In The Attic. He was so manipulative.

"Couldn't we go on a hay ride instead?" She begged. "We could cuddle and sip cider under a blanket and see the fall colors."

He threw the remote down and rolled his eyes. "You're so lame," he complained. "You're a big baby, just go get a widdle juice box and go have story and bed time then! Daddy needs his chainsaws!"

There was a ringing between Morgan's ears. The edges of her vision blurred. Devon got rainbow auras around him. "FINE!!!" she screamed!

Devon's face had a brief expression of agony. Suddenly bits of brain matter blood and bone flew across the living room; it covered the walls, Morgan and the coffee table. She walked out of the room, leaving a void of pristine white on the wall behind where she had stood.
