"No nothing is alright my poor baby Theodore was forced to become one of them" she hissed
"He's a?" I began wide eyed
"Draco, blaze, Theo, that Matteo fella you hate too and his brother of course, all them and pansy said she's next" Mrs Nott said
"What not pansy she can't possibly do it" I panicked
"Her parents are just the same as yours dear" she said
It wasn't all that because entering the office I saw Matteo riddle. The one Mrs Nott is right about I absolutely hate and rather not be in the same room Matteo riddle. Where I knew things were just never going to work out is what lead me to my next issue.
"Welcome Miss Hawthorne please sit" Dumbledore said motioning towards the seat beside Matteo
I didn't once look at Matteo or in his direction as I made my way to sit.
"Have I don't something Professor?" I asked
"No quite the opposite, you being top of your class I have quite the opportunity for you" he said
"Okay" I said
"I've got a tutoring program starting up and I'm pairing our best students with those I think can help best, Mr riddle here has gone through all those and they have all quit unable to get him to well comply, your the last resort in the tutoring program and I was hoping you would be willing to take care of this" he said
"Professor I don't think it's" I began
"Your his last hope you know, if he does well in the classes that you help tutor him in I can put in a word to a few people to get you where you want Miss Hawthorne" he said
Knowing full well I would never turn down an opportunity to try and make myself better. To get ahead and try and please my parents so I agreed much to my own dislike of course.
"Yes professor I understand" I said grabbing my books and heading to my next class with anger in my steps
As me and my friends enter defense against the dark arts I see the professor writing in a chalk board up front. It's not until he turns do I get the chance to read the words that were littered on the board. "Lesson on mind reading". My eyes went wide is this the ability my parents put in my paper or did they write all of them. What if he knows and isn't supposed to know.
"Miss Hawthorne" he said facing me
I gulp in in for it now, he definitely knows and I'm totally screwed here. I was already on edge for what Dumbledore is forcing me to do. This was definitely not helping my situation or my mental state at the moment.
"Tell us what it's like to read someone's mind" he said with a wide grin
I gulped down my anxiety as all eyes turned in my direction waiting for my response. Honestly didn't know that my parents made the school aware of my "one" ability.
"Well umm, it's sort of like a bubble of air above someone's head, the louder the thoughts are the ones from people who haven't built up a wall to block others out, the lighter and quieter voices are harder to read at first, the more minds that open at once can be painful for the reader to go through. It's like a sharp pain piercing your brain and it doesn't stop until they stop thinking so hard" I said
"She reads minds?" A ravenclaw girl said shocked from behind me
"Yes well it's her Hawthorne birth ability your parents told Professor Dumbledore before your arrival, every Hawthorne is known to have an ability mainly the females though isn't that right" the professor said
"So can one get more than one ability?" A girl from Slytherin asked while looking at me
"Only one in history ever had three or four abilities but more so were to be said is a curse, the harder to control abilities could make a Hawthorne go mad and insane in the head" I said
"So you only have one then?" The professor asked equally as interested
Although it seems he knew something that very few people knew and that was the fact I had not one ability but many.
"Reading minds only sir" I said shaking slightly
Theo looked at me with a worried expression and Draco simply nodded at me while pansy tried to comfort me. This way my destructive magic didn't show and give away the secret I was hiding.
"Well if it's true what am I thinking?" A Slytherin boy scoffed
"This is absolutely bloody outrageous, this isn't real" he said in his mind
"You think it's ridiculous that I can read minds you don't believe it" I said with a smirk when his eyes went wide
"So back to the topic of our lesson" the professor said
And the lesson went on talking about some of my family members who had the same ability. That each person who reads mind it comes differently for them and so forth. When we exited the class at the end of the lesson Draco rushed to my side with a worried expression.
"What was that about?" He said softly
"I dont know dray, he seems to know something it's obvious" I said shakily
"Hey it's going to be fine princess" Theo said kissing my forehead
"Guess what else I have to do" I groaned
"What?" Pansy asked
"Tutor Matteo, ugh the insufferable prat is going to get on my last nerve" I groaned in frustration
"Oh am I now" Matteo said upon hearing me
"Yes you git" I hissed
"Tell us how you really feel" he laughed in my face
"Oh I can" I said about to hit him but Theo pulled me back and towards the other side of the hall
I huffed in frustration as we walked down the hall together he refused to let go of me in case I rushed off.
"You can't let him get you you Cara mía" Theo said
