Chapter 7

I'm going back to Hogwarts today
Thank god
I'd much rather be there than here
Hogwarts is the my 2nd home, it's where I've made the best memories and it's where I feel most happy

Im interrupted with my thoughts by Eve my house elf
" Isobel your parents want you downstairs... it's time to go" she says sounding sad, she always reacts like this when I leave even though I see her in a couple of months, " thanks Eve il be down in a minute " I say
" I'm gonna miss you Izzy " she says running to me and hugging my legs
"I'm going to miss you too Eve , and remember if my parents cause you any hassle send me a letter and I'll handle them okay ? " I say as I go down to her level , my parents still treat her poorly even though I've told them not to, it's mostly my father who treats her the worst my mother has gotten better at respecting her.

My parents and I have honestly never gotten along and sometimes I wanna just walk out and start a new life, but I could never abandon Eve or my friends I just can't , that's probably the reason why I love Hogwarts so much is because it's an escape from my house and I can just be with my friends and I can be happy
Like actually happy , not pretending ,usually have to pretend at home , in front of my parents, when I'm out with my parents
Anywhere with them

I have to act because that's all they've told me to do

If I'm crying I need to wipe the tears and "suck it up "
If I have a pimple I need to cover it up and "look pretty "
And if im sad I need to pretend,fake it "just don't be a crybaby"
They constantly want me to be happy and act as though I'm a perfect child with perfect parents
It's all bullshit
It's just a way for them to show me off and show off their money and power and I hate it
But I've gotten used to it , to pretending . Before I went to hogwarts my mother taught me how to be a "lady " and because I never went to school I obviously never had friends
Other than Eve
It was the torture going out in public and seeing kids my age , laughing and playing
Being kids
While I'm stuck in my home , sad and alone

It's sucks

And I'm still not myself
The only people who understand me our Eve and My friends at Hogwarts
It took me a while to open up to my friends because I never really had friends that I could open up to.

Flashback
I really opened up to everyone in 3rd year
We were in the common room and Andrea was talking about something random and then Theo walked into the room and his hand was completely cut and it was a disgusting view
Everyone was freaking out and asking him how the hell he got so injured he told us he snuck into the kitchen and he saw this emerald crystal and it was glowing
Him being the idiot he is he picked it up and his hand started aching with pain ,he described it as "fire cutting through this skin " he then said he flung it somewhere and just ran , he wasn't hungry anymore. (Why was there I crystal in the kitchen ?)

So he's in the common room with a burning hand and no one has a clue what to do.

" I know what to do " I said and everyone's head turned with shock.

" how the hell do you know what to do , I've never seen anything like it " Blaise says

" that's not important right now, Lorenzo I need water right now " I say looking at Lorenzo with panic in my eyes

" okay" he says as he gets the water

"Isobel what's going on your panicking " Andrea says worried

" I know what's going on and I need to help him or else it will just get worse" I say grabbing Theo's hand ignoring the noise of pain coming out of his mouth.

"But wh- " Andreas voice is cut out by Lorenzo coming back in with the water and he's clearly out of breath.

"Thanks Lorenzo " I say grabbing the water from his hands, I place the water on the desk and take out my wand.
