Theo's POV
"I WAS FUCKING RAPED THEODORE"
Wait what?!
"I- uh" I didn't know what else to say
"He- when the guy raped me he used some similar words to the things you said yesterday" she explained herself
I had obviously no clue or I wouldn't have pressured her to tell me, I felt so bad for her but I- I didn't know how to act, I was clueless how to act to such thing, I felt bad but I couldn't show it, I didn't know how to.
"I'm sorry Lexa, I had no idea"
"It's whatever, I guess the trauma it's still there.... Just don't tell anyone will you Theodore?" Tears rolling down her eyes and as soon as she realized she was crying she quickly wiped them waiting for me to answer, I just nodded and she left me standing alone.
Damn, I felt bad, I was shocked most of all, who could possibly do such a thing to someone like her, I mean she obviously was gorgeous and hay a body like no other but still, there's no excuse to rape a girl.
But gosh that 'Theodore' no one called me that, like nobody, and normally it would piss me off but when it came out of her mouth the first time till now it sounds sexy as hell, I would t want any other person to call me by my full name besides her. I was being a dick because that's how I usually am, but god she drives me crazy, that's the type of woman I'm into, I just hope she never finds out I'm into her, like ever.
Since my mother died literally no one has called me Theodore before and I shut myself towards everyone, coming as cold hearted and being most of the time an asshole. My father was always busy working and he never showed any type of affection towards me either so I was basically on my own.
———————————————
My second class of the day was Potions with Snape, I was on my way there from Herbology which I just had with Professor Sprout.
I reached the class and entered, I sat myself at an empty desk waiting for the other students to join. This class was for 5th year Slytherin's and Gryffindor's.
As soon as everyone entered Snape spoke, "this year we will have assigned seats" everyone sounded upset, so was I. "Please everyone go to the back and as I call your last name step in front at the desk I assign you with your partner, I will not repeat myself twice".
The door opened all of the sudden, Lexa was standing there, she looked tired, I think she came running full speed, "I'm so sorry Professor, I got lost" she explained herself, Snape doesn't give second chances, he doesn't care if you came late for whatever reason, if you're not bleeding it's not important.
"Detention Miss Grindelwald"
"What?! I was like 2 minutes late Sir"
"Two days?"
"Professor Snape it's her first day" a boy tried to convince him, I recognized that boy as Harry Potter, the famous boy who lived, I hate him and his guts, he always has to save us every year.
"Two days detention for you too Potter" Snape spoke, I chuckled a bit too loud
"You think it's funny Mr. Nott?" Snape asked not surprised from my reaction, "two days of detention for you too Nott" great, detention with Potter and luckily with Lexa too, wait luckily? Fuck no Theodore. Don't get attached. "You three may join detention with me tomorrow after classes finish".
He started assigning seats, "Granger and Zabini, Weasley and Goyle, Nott and Brown, Potter and Grindelwald..." wait he just said Lexa was sitting with bloody Potter?! Fuck no and I was sitting with Miss Weasley crazy, hell no.
I looked at Lexa making her way to her desk which was just next to mine with Brown, Potter sat next to her and they clicked, they just clicked, they started talking and laughing, "You're Nott right?" A female voice spoke and interrupted me from my thought, the voice sounded irritating, I turned around to see Miss Weasley crazy talking, shit I'm not prepared for this type of hell.
"Yeah, who are you and why are you talking to me" I tried to sound as most intimidating as possible, it worked, she got nervous.
"Oh well, I'm Lavender Brown and we're desk partners"
"Okay, just don't talk to me" she quickly nodded and sat next to me, her hair was like a lions mane, it was so fucking big.
Lexa and bloody Potter kept laughing at who knows what. Snape told us that for today we had to "get to know our partners", I wasn't interested to get to know no one, specially this Lion mane, until something came to mind.
"Brown right?" I asked Lion mane next to me
"Uy yeah"
"Isn't Grindelwald a Brown as well?"
"Yeah, she's a cousin of mine, our mothers are cousins too" she looked a little proud to tell me she was cousins with the granddaughter of one of the darkest wizards of all time.
"You two get along?" I asked interested. Talking about Lexa was an interesting topic.
"Well yeah, we see each other at family reunions and that sort of stuff" she explained while fidgeting with her fingers.
"Cool, so you know her parents right?" I have ever heard Noah or Lexa talk about their parents, like ever.
"Oh no" she laughed "her mother abandoned her and Noah when they were barely one day old, and her father abandoned them too when they were six" fuck I thought that was a joke.
"Oh, and where is her father now?" I was curious to know why a father would leave they're children alone at the age of six, even if it was with their aunt and uncle.
"Well", she started whispering "her father is one of them, you know a Death Eater", "and her mother, we think she's dead or that she changed identities or something". Wait my dad may know him, he may know Alexa's father. "Nott, why are you even so interested in her?" She asked and got me off guard.
"Oh uh, isn't everyone? I mean she's the new hot girl around here, everyone seems to be interested in her" I answered trying to sound convincing.
"Sure I guess" she didn't sound that convinced.
"Hey, you know if it's true that she got uh raped?" I tried to be quiet. I had to know the truth.
"Well yeah back in April of this year, she was seeing this guy but as soon as she ended whatever they had going he got mad and raped her at a party" she explained, she looked disappointed and sad "just don't tell anyone Nott, she gets very upset when someone mentions what happened" I nodded.
It seems Alexa Grindelwald had many secrets, but who doesn't, I have one of my own.
