Bloody Secrets

CHAPTER 14

ELEANOR

It was two weeks since I hugged Mattheo in the common room, but I hadn't talked to anyone about it yet. I wanted to wait to prove to others that in reality Mattheo is not that bad boy that everyone thinks, he has a side of himself that he has never shown to anyone.He had treated me very badly but in these weeks he has changed a lot, maybe because he discovered my biggest secret and I discovered that he shared this pain too. We both had not a good childhood because of our fathers.

"Eleanor did you hear what I said?" Diana asked me

"No, sorry I was lost in my thoughts" I replied as I took another slice of tart

"I said are you ready for potions lesson?" she repeated to me

"Not at all. I'm starting to hate this matter"

"You'll see, you will improve" Draco consoled me

"And when? It's been almost a month since we started studying it" I said putting my hands through my hair

"If I learned, everyone can learn including you" Diana joked

"Very funny" I said looking at her angrily

We finished breakfast and went to class. As soon as I entered Professor Snape looked at me badly, I was his only student who was doing badly in his subject. I think he hated me, I always made a mess in class and also I never managed to create a potion .

I sat down at the table angry

"What did you do?" Diana asked me

"I really don't want to take the lesson. I hate this subject"

"I noticed Miss Skye that you didn't particularly like my subject" the professor told me

I looked at him embarrassed. He had heard what I had said. He looked at me claiming an answer

"Excuse me professor" I only managed to say

"Well, let's start with the potions" he began to tell the class

"Eleanor, you let the professor hear you" Draco said turning to me

"I didn't think he heard me" I replied

The whole class finished preparing their potions, even Diana had managed to prepare it and I could not believe that I was not able.I looked at my potion and as always it wasn't right

"You will never learn" the professor looked at me angrily. I looked him back without saying anything

After class, I got up without even waiting for the others. I went to the Astronomy Tower and sat on the ground. I couldn't stand be the only one who couldn't make a stupid potion.
