Magical powers. It's something many people dream of having, something people think doesn't exist. But I know it exists because I have powers. I can read minds.

Since my 13th birthday, I've had the gift to read minds. I liked it at first, but, now, it's affecting my relationships with people.

I can hear what people really think of me, which are all bad or mean. I thought Sasha was my best friend, but she was just using me for popularity reasons.

It hurts knowing what people really think of you.

No one knows of my abilities, not even my parents. I also have no friends. Every person who'd talk to me would think terrible things.

Oh, my God, she's so ugly.
Ugh, why am I partners with her? She's so stupid!

I may not be the smartest person, very low grades actually, but it still hurts.

I've heard some nice things, like my hair looked nice, my eyes were pretty, but I felt cheated. No one had the guts to tell me straightforwardly, I only ever heard it through their thoughts.

Today, I'm sitting in history class, alone, waiting for the rest of the class to arrive.

I'd arrive at class early so I don't have a hard time looking for a spot to sit. Especially, for history. My favorite, and only good subject.

I heard today we're doing a project in partners. Great. Now I'm gonna have to hear the despicable things my partners going to think.

I can block the thoughts of others out, but it takes a lot of energy and I kind of need it when at school. To read people's thoughts they have to be in a five feet radius.

It really hurts when I'm in the corridor because there are over twenty kids near me. Which means twenty different thoughts. All different, dirty, cute, morbid, weird thoughts.

My own thoughts were interrupted by a bell ringing. Kids packed the classroom and the teacher went to her desk. Of course, no one sat with me and I heard their thoughts.

"Everyone settle down, today we'll be doing a paper on the war in partners." She announced. "Sal and Y/n together, Ashley and Randy together." Her voice trailed off.

Of all the people in the class, I got Sal. I have to be partners with my crush? The one person I'd rather not be with, I have to be partnered with him. Ridiculous, utterly ridiculous.

"Hey, Y/n, ready to begin our paper?" His voice was muffled by his white mask. I nodded my head and started the paper.

Wow she looks pretty today. A voice spoke clearly through my mind. 

I could recognize it as Sal's voice.

Is he talking about me? I wondered.

"I'm almost done with the writing." I said. "Okay, cool." his voice sounded annoyed.

God, I sounded annoyed! Oh, no, she probably hates me! Sal's voice ringed through my mind in a panicked tone.

"I don't hate you." My eyes widen at my words. It was another reason people had kept their distance from me. I had a tendency to mutter a response to their question or statement. They thought I was "crazy". I mean, they're not wrong.

"W-what?" He stutters. "I don't hate your. . . work . . . " I trailed off. "Oh, okay?" He said, confusion clear in his ton.

I finished my part of the work and handed it to our teacher. The bell rang moments later and I bolted out of the class.

I'm so stupid! This is why I have no friends! I thought bitterly.

My thoughts were interrupted by something cold grabbing my shoulder. I turn quickly and see him. Sal.

"Hey, are you okay?" He asked. "Yeah, totally!" My voice shaky.

She hates me! My crush hates me! God Sal, you're so stupid!

My eyes widen and mouth drops. He likes me!? How, when, why!?

"Is something wrong?" I pushed my thoughts aside and return back to reality. "You have a crush on me?" Once again, I spoke before thinking. "H-how do you know?" He looked at me worriedly.

I start panicking and ran away. "Y/n, where are you going!" I hear Sal yell from behind. I run into the school courtyard to cry.

I didn't want to cry, but I did. I hated my abilities. I heard the doors open so I wiped the tears away and sat up. I saw Sally walking closer to me.

"Are you okay? Did I say something?" He sounded genuinely concerned. I couldn't control myself. I broke down crying again. I hugged Sally tightly. He jumped back, but soon returned the hug.

"I hate myself! I HATE MY ABILITIES!" I yell into his chest. He pets my hair in comfort. "What are talking about abilities?" I freeze realizing I just let out my secret.

"I can't tell you." My voice was hushed. "Can't tell me what? What abilities?" He was asking lots of questions. That's it. I have to tell him. Maybe he can help me...No he'll think you're crazy!

I ignored my feeling and told him. "I can read minds...." My voice was just above a whisper.

He looks at me worriedly. "What?" "I can read minds." My voice got louder. I couldn't see his face, but if I could he'd be doing a confused expression.

"Think of something." I ask him. 'What is going on?' His mind was running with questions. "What's going on is I'm telling you my deep dark secret." I say softly.

His eyes widen. "How, how, how?" His eyes remained wide. "I don't know, but ever since I was 13 I've been able to read other's minds." I explain.

I back away knowing he thinks I'm a freak. 'This is crazy! Cool but crazy!' He thinks. "I know it's crazy!" I yell not turning around.

I hear footsteps from behind and then see Sal walking beside me. "Why are you walking away?" He asks facing me. "Because I'm a freak!" I snap back.

He looks surprised by my words. 'How can she think she's a freak it's so cool and unique!' I think he forgot I can read minds.

"It's not cool Sal! Sure it's a little unique, but nothing you think is yours I know everything you think!" I growl.

I stop walking in the middle of the empty hallway. Tears roll down my cheeks uncontrollably. Sal stops and turns to me. He cups my face in his hands and wipes the tears away with his thumb.

"I think it's amazing and I don't care if you hear everything I think!" He brings me into a tight hug.

'I love everything about you!' My eyes widen and tears roll down my face again. "You do?" I ask happily. 'I do. I really do!' I smile and pull away from the hug.

We look into each other's eyes for an internity. His bright blue eyes sparkled under the corridor light.

Who knew my abilities would bring us together? I love my abilities a little bit more now.
