Reader POV

You knew today would be a rough day. The students at Nevermore have been sitting their mid term exams for the past three days. And with exams comes stress and pressure which makes for some interesting interactions with my students. Classes become more of a struggle but at least there was only two more days of exams.

A small sigh fell from your lips as you rubbed my temples desperately trying to soothe the ache appearing there. Mountains of exams that needed grading sat in front of you on the desk mocking you. As much as you love your job and the students exam seasons will always be the death of you. Thankfully your next class would be just having study time before their next exam took place later on today meaning you could try to catch up with your grading.

As if they were following your train of thought the students began filing in taking their seats. Sometimes having an ability that has two sides is useful. However sometimes you Telepathy could be a real curse. Not only could you feel your own emotions and hear your own thoughts you now have that of 30 students. With the exam stress heightening emotions such as fear and anxiety but you could hear their thoughts. The classroom suddenly seems all too loud and overwhelming. Another sigh slipped from your lips as you stood up to address the class. It would be a miracle if you made it through the hour.

Words started to blend into eachother and become fuzzy very early on. It was clear grading wouldn't be happening while the room was this overwhelming for you. With a quiet sigh you tried to focus your mind. Right away thoughts were rushing through your mind. It's like a jumble sell. Each thought trying to be heard and stand out from the crowd. Some thoughts were easier to pinpoint than others. You have Bianca middle row centre seat thinking about what would happen if she didn't get the perfect grade in this exam. Would her reputation as a top grade student be tarnished? Then there was Ajax back right corner seat trying his best to understand the revision in front of him but just coming up with blanks. Then of course there was Wednesday thinking of all the ways she could torture a victim. The ways getting more and more barbaric as time trickled on.  Enid on Wednesdays right was probably the worst to pinpoint. Her thoughts were irrational and scattered and she had anxiety rolling off her in waves. All in all the hour was the most nauseating class of the day so far. From the splitting headache to the emotional turmoil you couldn't help but be exhausted. Of course you could've communicated through the youthful minds of the room to ease the symptoms but you had vowed to never do that unless strictly necessary. A little discomfort for you was not worth breaking vowel.

Control hanging on by a thread you could've cried happy tears when the bell rung to signal lesson change. Even though your body protested every movement you stood and ushered the students from the room with a
"good luck you'll do great! " and a small forced smile. The last thing you remember was Enid's worried smile before hitting the cold floor.

Larissa POV
Exam season meant stress. Not only for the students, of course my staff would be having a rough week this week so i made every effort to try and help with that. Cancelling staff meetings unless absolutely necessary. Watching the students file into the corridor with a sense of urgency my thoughts drift to a certain member of my faculty. Turning to my right I could see her in her doorway bidding her students farewell with a smile. A smile that didn't reach their eyes. That was the first cue. The second was their posture. Back ever so slightly slouched and head slightly tilted downward. It was unnoticeable but to the untrained eye but after all you knew her well enough to notice. The third and final cue was Enid's panicked shriek and the thud of my love hitting the floor.

Within seconds my body had sprang into action and I was holding you to my chest whispering sweet nothings into your hair. The crowd that had gathered started to disperse after a stern look. It was lovely to see the concern they had for you but I knew if you knew they saw you'd be embarrassed and blame yourself for the exams not starting on schedule. It couldn't have been more than 5 minutes before I could feel you coming back around.

"Darling? Are you quite alright?" I questioned trying to contain my thoughts and push out feelings of contentment.

"Mmm fine" was the reply that was mumbled into my shoulder. I couldn't help the frown that appeared. She most definitely was not fine. Anyone with eyes could see that.

"What happened sweetheart?"

Sighing and shuffling to hide her beautiful face in my neck she whispered out " it was all too much. I tried Rissa,  I really did. The thoughts, the feelings, god it all happened so fast. I'm sorry Rissa"

"Oh darling, it's not your fault love. It's okay. You're okay." My hands took their place combing through her soft curls. Internally cursing myself for not realising sooner. Your ability would be torture this time of year. Looking down at how you had curled yourself into my lap head resting in the crook of my neck I could see just how exhausted you were.  Although as exhausted as you were it didn't stop your stubborn nature.

"Love? "
"Mmmmm"
"Shall we go to my office? It should be less overwhelming there"
"Mmm fine gotta plan"
"No darling that can wait, your exhausted."
"Rissa I have to-"
"As your boss I'm telling you to go rest"
"Okay" followed a small sigh as you realise I wouldn't be backing down.
"Thank you. And darling as your girlfriend I'm asking that you come and let me take care of you"
"I love you Rissa"
"I love you too darling"

Ever so gently I scooped the love of my life off the floor and into my arms as we made our way to my office.
