-AUTUMN POV-

He kept staring at me while having a soft smile on his face, I rolled my eyes and let out a chuckle "what?" He asks and I look at him

"Stop staring at me." I say

"I'm not staring."

"I'm admiring you"

My stomach is filled with butterflies and my cheeks get a pink tint, I look at the ground while smiling. This is some cheesy shit

Mattheo changes the subject by asking if I practiced my powers, my powers.

I read his book and learned a couple things, I can control people and objects with my mind of course. When I'm feeling a strong emotion my power is also stronger, it can get really dangerous.

I still can't use them on command, it just happens.

"I read your book but I didn't really practice." I say and he nods "let's do that then." He says

"Go stand there" he points a bit further away from himself. I walk to where he pointed and look at him. "Close your eyes." I do as he says. "Your going to push me back."

"Focus. Think about what your going to do." He says. I think about pushing him back. "Open your eyes."

I open my eyes, he is about 7 feet away from me. I get distracted by the students who are outside, already throwing small fire works. "Focus Autumn!" Mattheo shouts making me flinch. He sighs before regaining his posture again.

"Put all your strength in pushing me back, focus, think about it, do it." He says in a stern voice.

I put all my focus and strength in pushing him back, I squint my eyes. I try so hard, I'm breathing through gritted teeth. "Focus Autumn, you can do it." Mattheo says in a soft tone.

He falls back.

I did it.

I let out a loud breath, exhausted.

I fall to the ground too, Mattheo quickly gets up and walks to me. He crouches down next to me "you did it love" he says as he holds out his hand for me to take

He helps me up, a tear slips down my cheek. I don't even know why, but I'm crying often lately. It's quite annoying really. Mattheo wraps an arm around my shoulders and I cry even more.

It's just like all my emotions are suddenly spilling out "sorry for crying so fucking much with you." I say quietly as I wipe my tears. "It's fine." He answers

"I don't even know why I cry all the time, it's annoying."

"It's not annoying. Your body is working through your trauma, you now have quite a few people who you can share your feelings with so you don't have to bottle them up anymore. Your just letting all your feelings from the past years out, it's something good. You went through a lot Autumn." He says looking into my eyes, I take a moment to think of what he said.
