Prompt: you are 12 years old and are Wintumns daughter, everyone finds out how smart you are

AN: thank you @Jaime_prolific2 for this idea 

Walking down the stairs you hear the voices of your mum and dad in the kitchen talking, walking into the kitchen you see them both sat at the table eating breakfast and see both of them turn to you when they see you enter the room "hi sweetie" your mum says to you which you smile at and walk over and give her a hug before doing the same with your dad before sitting at the table and started to each your breakfast that was on the table "you okay" you hear your dad ask you, looking at him you nod your head and go back to eating your food and hear them both sigh when they see you weren't going to be talking, looking up when you hear a chair scrape across the floor you see your mum getting up and walking over to where you was sat at the table before she bent down to your height "how much sleep have you had" she asks you and you hold up 3 fingers to show you had gotten 3 hours of sleep and quickly look down at the table when you see her look at you with a stern face "what have we told you sweetie" she asks you making you look at her "no more studying or reading after 9pm but I stopped after 9 I just couldn't sleep" you whisper and go back to eating your food before leaving the table and rush up to your room hearing "Y/N Y/M/N FORTUNE-KNIGHT" come from you dad but you ignore it and run into your bedroom and close the door and walked over to your desk sitting down and started to study again and putting your headphones on to block out everything else knowing your parents will be upstairs in a minute to talk to you.

Since you had your headphone on you didn't hear your parents walk into your room but turned to face them when you feel your headphones being pulled of your head and you see them sat on your bed "you don't put these unless you want complete silence, what is going on" your mum asks you whilst holding up the headphones that were noise cancelling and helped you focus when you needed it the most mainly when there is a big exam coming up or when you was overwhelmed "my exams start Monday" you say to them fiddling with the tie on your pyjama pants "I thought your exams were next month" your dad asks you in confusion "they was meant to be but I completed all the work last month so my teachers brought them forward so I won't be bored in class" you whisper and look at your parents who was looking at you shocked "I found out yesterday just before I finished for the day" you tell them and hear them gasps "sweetie, we know you are smart but how far ahead are you in your work" your mum asks you moving closer to you and picked you up and moved you to sit in between them "the exams I'm sitting are my GCSEs after I have sat them I will be done with high school" you tell them and lean into your mum "your 3 years ahead in your work" your dad asks you "no I'm 4 years ahead I'm only in my first year of high school but I turned 12 last month making me one the oldest in my year" you say to them both "you finished high school in a year" your mum says and you could hear a bit of proudness in her voice.

Looking at your mum you nod at her and look at your desk that was covered with books and notes of paper "I'm sitting 12 exams in 4 days, doing three exams a day" you explain and heard "is that even possible" come from your dad, you get up and grabbed the list of your exams and what time you would be taking them and handed it to your dad and sat back in between them again "sweetie, we know you are ahead but why did you not tell us you was so far ahead" your mum asks you whilst making you look at her "you remember the detention I got at the beginning of the year due to 'cheating' on a test since I got full marks on it" you ask them and see them nod and saw your mum smirk due to how she went in to your school and screamed at the teachers saying you would never cheat on anything and she got barred from the school for two weeks "well after resitting the exam and getting full marks on the paper again, the teacher asked me to try a harder exam and I got full marks on it, they had me do these tests one day it came back I had a photographic memory and a high IQ, I never told you since I didn't know how to" you explain quietly and was quickly brought in for a hug by your parents but you quickly wriggled out of it not like being hugged like your mum "she is your daughter" you hear your dad say to your mum who just chuckled at him "sorry sweetie, but can you explain why you didn't sleep last night" your mum says and you stand there and twirl you hair a sign that you was nervous "I couldn't sleep due to my thoughts going crazy, like if I fail or what I will do after my exams are over" you whisper and feel tears start to form in your eyes which you quickly wiped away "well, to answer the second question you can figure that out after your exams are over and we will help you okay and to answer the first part even if you did fail we would still be proud of you for trying and failing doesn't mean you your not smart it means you just need to understand the topic, you might be able to remember everything but if you don't know how to ply that into your work or exams then you just need to be shown how it doesn't mean you don't know what it is" your dad explains and you look at them in shock "you will be proud of me even if I don't do well" you whisper to them "sweetie we are proud of you no matter what" your mum says and leans closer to you and gives you a quick kiss on the forehead.
