Your perspective

Yesterday did not go as planned. So of course I was still in bed and breakfast was starting. My stomach was growling. Luckily Matteo convinced me to get up and go and eat.

Before we reached the great hall we were interrupted by proffesor McGonagall. And what happened next snapped me out of my daze.

"Miss y/n" Professor McGonagall said.

"Yes, Professor."

"We need you and Matteo to come to the hospital wing immediately."

"What why? What happened, is everyone ok?"

"Most certainly not. Theodore was in a little accident. I'll let him explain the rest."

When we reached the hospital wing I already feared the worst. The moment i saw Theodore in a hospital bed, I ran towards him. He wasn't in as bad if a shape than I imagined, but it still wasn't good.

"What happened?" I asked.

"Oh it was dreadfull!" He said, slightly opening his eyes to see if there was any reaction. "He happened." He pointed gingerly at Matteo. Matteo seemingly unsurprissed, just shrugged. And I gave him a death stare.

"I was just calmly walking out of the great hall when I was cornered by him! That was when he started attacking me with words, calling me names that should not be spoken in front of a lady." Feeling quite irritated by that statement I continued to listen. "After beating me with words he started hitting me with his fists. By the time I was aware of what was happening he hit me in the head. That is the last memory I have."

Matteo seemed surprised by his words, and I felt anger.

"Matteo could you please leave the room, I would like to talk to Theodore alone." I say without even removing my eyes from Theodore.

As soon as Matteo left Theodore's mood changed he went from the helpless victim to a boy who just got his favorite candy from his mother.

We were still talking when I was rushed out to go to class.

I stop at the entrance of the dungeons, bracing myself for potions. I was very hesitant to enter the room because my seat is next to Matteo's. I sat down only wanting to leave, at least Matteo seemed as uncomfortable as me. We sat in silence throughout the whole class, and I knew neither of us was focusing. Which was a shame because I really like potions. When the class was finally over I started to pack my bag. We accidentally touched eachothers hands. Was that butterflies or just pure disgust, I might never know.

Finally after seven dreadfull hours of school I got to go to bed. Going to bed was the first thing I did, because I was extremely tired. But as soon as my head touched the pillows I was completely awake. But as seconds turned into minutes and minutes turned into hours I fell asleep.

I was running as fast as I can, I don't know what I'm running from but whatever it is I had to go. I started to slow down gasping for air and start to haze at my surroundings trying to identify where I was. It was really dark but the moon was out, I was in a forest with large trees that's trunks was the size of houses. There were barely any leaves on them which seemed odd for this time of the year. But before I could look any further the scene changed. Now I was in a room with dim lights and a large table in the middle, it was a simple room, the more I looked the more detail i saw. There were people sitting at the table, I couldn't quite make out who they were. Except two people. Theodore and Matteo. I try to scream and get their attention but all of a sudden I had no voice I could not utter a word. I tried screaming louder but all what came through was a something that sounded like a train coming to a stop. At last Matteo looked over to me. I felt that there was some hope, but his eyes went beyond me. He could not see me, but for a second, just a second our eyes locked. The scene changed again, I was running from what I do not know. The trees were no longer bare but instead they were incased in flames. I look for an exit, I was unsuccessful in finding one. Suddenly everything went silent. Not a single sound, it was as if someone had turned the volume down but kept the movie on. I feel someone or something breathing on me. I go deadly still not daring to breathe. I brace myself for the worst.
