All the other students had already shuffled out of the darkened, sweet-smelling classroom when Lavender approached her teacher.
“Professor…I don’t quite understand how you knew about Parvati’s rabbit.”
“Hmm? Ms Brown, Seers are not known for revealing their secrets.”
Sybil Trelawney glanced up from the crystal bowl she had been studying and peered curiously at Lavender. She gave a little gasp and leaned in look at her more closely.
“Have you been having visions, girl?”
“I think so.”
“Wonderful! You must tell me about them.” Her face was now only inches away from her student’s; her wide eyes staring unblinkingly into the girl’s.
“Well…last night when I was in bed, I couldn’t fall asleep. That’s how I knew it wasn’t just a dream. I saw-,” Lavender paused and looked down at her hands, which were torturing a piece of parchment.
“I saw myself, in this room, with you standing in front of me. We were snogging. What does this mean, Professor?” Lavender gulped and looked up eagerly.
“Ah, my dear, you have the Gift.”
“So…do you think it’ll ever come true?”
“It will have to. Divination is always accurate, except when practiced by those who do not possess the Sight.”
“I see.”
Lavender took a deep breath and closed her eyes. She stood like that for a few seconds, waiting.
“My dear, this is not the time.” Trelawney looked back at her crystal ball. “No-one can force the hand of Fate.”
That doesn’t mean they couldn’t try. She would.
