She leaned her hip against the table and folded her arms. “I’ve had a few. My psychic abilities aren’t very strong. Why? What did you see?”
This was it. The moment I decided to trust her. She could use this information to tease me and humiliate me in front of Sai and the guys, or she would prove she was really my friend. I didn’t have much to lose, so I went for it.
“Sai ran into me on my way here and when he touched my arms this . . . premonition came into my mind. But it felt familiar, like I was watching a memory. But it couldn’t have been because we barely met each other.”
“Okay, what did you see?”
I sighed, preparing myself for her to tell me I was crazy. “We were walking down a city sidewalk, holding hands, and laughing, and we looked like we were in love.” I rushed out the last three words, hoping she wouldn't hold on to that part.
Her brows shot to her hairline. “Really?”
I swallowed. “Yeah. What does it mean?”
She puffed out a breath. “From what I understand, premonitions are glimpses intopossiblefutures. Since there are a million decisions we make each day, the future can change.”
“It was just strange how real it felt.”
“That’s interesting. The few I’ve had didn’t necessarily have emotions tied to them. I simply saw myself at this school in my first one.”
“It didn’t feel like a memory?”
She shook her head. “Not that I remember.”
“What do you think that means?” I had no one else to ask, and I wanted answers.
“Maybe it’s more likely to happen?” She guessed. “I’m really not sure. I wasn’t put into the psychic program because my abilities weren’t strong enough. Maybe yours are.”
I dropped my head back. “I’m not sure I can handle another thing.”
She chuckled. “I’ll keep your secret for now. But if Mrs. Hedgings is tutoring you, then I bet it will take a week or two to figure it out.”
“Great, I can’t wait.” I sighed and picked up my stack of books, but I paused. “Oh, there’s something else.”
She perked up. “What?”
“Mrs. Brooks told Niall he has to tutor me in Water Magic.”
Her bottom lip disappeared between her teeth, but I caught the corners turning up and I swatted at her.
“No laughing at me!”
That broke her, and she giggled uncontrollably. “Sorry, it’s just him? Of all people?”
I rolled my eyes but finally caved. “I know. It’s terrible. He already hates me, and now he’s being forced to help me.”
“At least he’ll be able to glare at you up close now.”
“Thanks,” I deadpanned. “Super helpful.”
She just grinned. “You’ll survive. I hope.”
I groaned and picked up my books, and she took hers. “Come on, let’s go drop these off, then we can get dinner and study after.”
I wanted to take a break, maybe catch my breath after a whirlwind day, but she was right. I had way too much to do just to get my head above water.
When we got to the dining hall, it wasn’t nearly as full as I expected. “Where is everyone?”
“Most of the sports have practice right now. Plus, the hall is open from five to eight-thirty each night, so we can come when we want.”
