"Come on (Y/N/N)! We're going to be late for Divination!" Adrian shouted as you trudged up the stairs to the North Tower. You sighed, trying your best to catch your breath.
"That would be our luck. Late on the first day of term!" You huffed.
"It wouldn't make much of a difference would it though? Professor Trelawney never gives anyone detention. Last year I poured tea on Terence's head and she didn't even blink. Besides she'll probably already know if we're going to be late." Adrian said as you turned down the left corridor towards the trap door.
"True. I'm not entirely sure why I took Divination this year. I needed on more course and none of the other ones seemed appealing. What do we have after this? Second period I mean?" You asked unenthusiastically.
"Defense Against the Dark Arts. We have 1st and 2nd period with the Hufflepuffs. And just in case your wondering, I know about your secret relationship with Diggory." Your mouth fell open in shock, causing him to snicker. You shook your head.
"I have no idea what you're talking about. Diggory's a Hufflepuff. That would never happen. Not in a million years," you lied, nervously. Adrian chuckled.
"Don't lie to me. I heard Terence and Weasley talking about it. That and when you dropped your ring during Quidditch practice the last year I saw the engraving. Diggory's not so bad. I don't know why everyone acts like he is. Overly perfect, yeah, but he's not bad at all. And you don't have to worry, no one else knows, and I won't tell. But I just have one question?" You nodded, unsure.
"I know you're a big girl. And you've got plenty of guys watching out for you. But I'm your best friend too. And I love you just as much as the next boy. So I have to ask, does he treat you right? He's kind to you? He puts you first? He treats you like the princess you are?" You smiled and threw your arms around him, causing him to stop dead in his tracks. He wrapped his arms around your waist.
"Yeah. He does. Don't worry, the day Cedric hurts me, is the day the whole school goes down in flames. But you're right. I have a whole line of guys who'd pummel him into a pulp if he ever hurts me." Adrian laughed and gestured to the bottom of the latter in front of you. You sighed and began to climb up, Adrian following close behind.
You walked into the musty classroom only to find everyone else already in their seats. Adrian walked in behind you, almost colliding with your back. Students turned in their chairs to see the commotion you had caused. You ignored their stares and did your best not to look around desperately for a certain pale-eyed Hufflepuff. Professor Trelawney stepped out of the shadows , her ginormous eyes gleaming in the dim lighting. "Ah, Ms. Middlebrook, Mr. Pucey, how nice of you to join us. I suspected you'd be late. Please come in. The 2 of you can partner up. Come now, let us begin, there is much to do, and little time to do it."
You lead Terence to the nearest empty table and collapsed onto one of the colored cushions, laid out on the floor. Professor Trelawney set 2 teacups in front of you and filled them with a steaming liquid. She returned to the front of the classroom to begin her extremely odd start of term lesson.
"Good morning class! I'm so glad to have you first thing in the morning. I'm also extremely glad that you've decided to take Honors Divination. I think you will all do very well. Today we'll be doing a bit of review. We're going to be reading tea leaves. And at the end of class I will be reading a few of your upcoming futures for a special treat. Let's get started."

   -Time Skip-

"Alright! Class will be ending in a few minutes I hope you've all learned a thing or to about the person across from you. I will now be reading some of your futures. I'm sorry but I will not be able to get to all of you. I'm just going to read one or two," Professor Trelawney announced. She looked around the room at all of the nervous students, trying to pick someone. Unfortunately her ginormous eyes landed on you. "Ah! Ms. Middlebrook! Let's see your future! Come here!"
You bit your lip nervously, but proceeded toward the front of the room. Professor Trelawney smiled and took your hand gently. She sat you down in a large arm chair, and ran her bony fingers over your palm, studying all the lines.
"Hmm. Yes. That's very interesting. Yes. I see. Ms. Middlebrook do you have a boyfriend?" Your face fell slack in shock. Out of the corner of your eye you finally caught sight of your boyfriend. His face must've mirrored your own expression. On the other side of the room you could see Adrian and Terence sitting stiffly on the edge of their seats.
"No ma'am. I don't," you replied. Cedric's face relaxed as you lied straight through your teeth. Adrian and Terence exhaled in relief. Professor Trelawney nodded, solemnly, her huge eyes shining.
"I see. Yes. Well, there will be much heartbreak in your life this year, Ms. Middlebrook. Yes. That's correct. It's all right here." The whole class burst into murmurs and your face, once again, fell slack, but this time with deep disappointment. You cast a worried glance at Cedric. His hands were clenched tightly into fists. He was gnashing his teeth as his eyes burned holes into the back of the Professor's head. You sighed.
He looked up to find you staring at him and mouthed the word; Tonight? You nodded. You knew he was going to be upset about your "upcoming future". You snatched your hand away from the bug-eyed woman and stormed out of the classroom. Your boyfriend would never hit you like that. He wouldn't cause you heartbreak. That was ridiculous.
You heard the echo of Adrian's boots as he followed you out of the tower. He grabbed your hand. laughing as he did so. "What's wrong (Y/N/N)? Didn't like your future?" He teased.
"No! She's wrong! She is so wrong! That old hag doesn't know what she's frickin' talking about! Divination's just a big joke! This is my last year of Divination! I'm so done with all these stupid predictions! Use your inner eye to predict the future? I think not! Cedric would never hurt me! Ever! She's. A. Liar."
