Happy Sunday release day! I am so sorry this one is late, I’ve had quite the week. I appreciate all of your support…comment to be added to the taglist! Enjoy!
(Sorry about the spacing! My lack of laptop today made it harder lol)
—————
“Two times in one day, I’m a lucky man” you hear Mattheo’s voice ring in the air. You open your eyes to see him walking up to you with the little brown notebook he’s always doodling in.
You don’t respond but rather just scoot over so he can sit down next to you, just inches away.
“Let me guess, you came up here to escape your friends?” Mattheo asks, raising his eyebrows expectantly.
“How’d you know?” You ask emotionlessly.
“Why do you think I’m up here?” He retorts.
You close your eyes again, tilting your head back against the wall until you smell a cigarette.
You open your eyes again, looking to mattheo as he’s lighting one.
“Are you just always smoking?” You ask.
“Want one?” He responds, holding his pack up towards you.
“No thanks, I don’t smoke” you pause, “you know it’s really bad for you, right?”
“Eh, fuck it” he shrugs, exhaling smoke. The smell was overwhelming already but you don’t move away from Mattheo at all.
You point to his notebook, “what do you draw in there?”
“It’s a secret,” he says, raising his eyebrows, smirking.
“Sure it is” you laugh, “you draw in it during class. I’ll just look when you’re not paying attention”
He stares at you for a moment before speaking, “you know you’re a lot more feisty than I thought you would be” He takes another drag of his cigarette, the smell intoxicating you.
“Oh, because I’m a gryffindor?” You tilt your head.
“You ask a lot of questions,” he responds, squinting his eyes at you.
You stare at him for a moment before looking away, “I’m just a curious person”
“Yeah I know, you and your friends are quite the nosey people” he laughs.
You glance at him again quickly before looking the other way, towards the open sky. The sun was now starting to set, making the most beautiful sunset.
“So what are you going to wear for Dean on Friday? Something hot?” Mattheo teases, capturing your attention again.
“None of your business” you respond quickly.
“Oh come on, this is your first date with him right?”
“Now who’s nosey?” You ask, tilting your head.
“Alright, fine. Just know that Dean is a guy” he responds.
“Yeah I know, that’s why I’m going out with him” you laugh.
“No, I mean he’s a guy. He’s gonna try to get in your pants”
You gasp, “no he’s not! He’s actually a good guy you know.” you try to defend Dean.
“That doesn’t mean he doesn’t want to have sex with you” he shrugs, still finishing off his cigarette.
“Is that all you think about?” you almost laugh, getting annoyed, “I mean, everyone knows you sleep around but I didn’t want to believe it.”
“Then don't.” he responds quietly, avoiding your eyes, “not everything you hear is true.”
You watch him carefully. His reaction was…defensive and almost like he was affected by your accusation.
“So tell me what is true.” you respond, you gaze still fixated on him and his curly hair blowing in the slight breeze.
He looks up to you, his jaw clenched, “it’s getting late, I should go”
Without another word, he stands up and puts out his cigarette before leaving without another word. He was just gone just as fast as he had come.
A part of you wants to know more about him but another part of you is scared to know his deep, dark secrets. Mattheo Riddle was a complex person and you had always known that but now, you had a sneaking feeling that he was more complicated than you initially thought.
You walk back to the Gryffindor house, dinner having finished by the time you started to head back.
When you reach your dorm, Hermione is rifling through her dresser and Ginny is sitting on her bed, relacing her shoes.
“Hey, I made Ron save you some rolls from dinner.” Hermione says upon noticing you walk in.
“Thanks.” you smile lightly before she walks into the bathroom and shuts the door behind her, starting a shower.
Ginny looks up despite being currently occupied and watches you walks over to your chest, grabbing the 3 dinner rolls and jam they saved for you, “you were up at the astronomy tower weren’t you?”
“I just wanted some fresh air…I needed time to myself.” you try to explain to her.
“But you weren’t…” she tilts her head, “alone, I mean.”
“I-” you hesitate, “I don’t know what you mean”
“I noticed Mattheo’s seat at dinner was empty and I also happen to know that he smokes up there quite frequently.” she explains as she continues with her laces.
“Nothing happened.” you say instantly.
She looks up at you and squints her eyes for a second, “I never said anything did happen. It’s just interesting, is all.”
You nod, looking away from her. You pull off a piece of the roll and eat it before deciding to speak up, “Can I ask you something?”
“Sure, what is it?”
You hesitate, “when you were with Dean, did you guys hook up?”
She laughs, “what’s bringing this on?”
“I don’t know, I just want to be prepared and if-”
“We did…once. But Dean is the most patient guy ever, if you want to wait, he’ll wait.” she explains.
“Right.” you respond awkwardly. What Mattheo said was eating at you, what if Dean tried to sleep with you right away? What would you do? You definitely were not ready for that in the slightest.
Something else was also gnawing at the back of your brain, why would Mattheo say that unless he thought I looked…good?
There was no way he found you attractive so you settle on the fact that he is just vulgar, it was in his nature.
Still, you wanted to ask him again about what he had said. ‘not everything you hear is true.’ What did he mean by that? The entire school knew his long holding reputation.
Hermione rejoins you and Ginny in the room as the three of you settle and get ready for bed.
“How far into our first book of the year are you? I think I’ll have it finished by next week” Hermione says casually to you from across the room.
“Oh uh, I’m maybe a third into it…I haven’t had much time to read yet” you admit.
“Of course you haven’t, Snape has you doing chores” she rolls her eyes, “you have to talk to Dumbledore about this, he should know that you don’t need to waste your time on Mattheo.”
“For the last time, I’m going to do it.” you respond, “look at it this way, it's an extra opportunity for me to study, not just to help him.”
Hermione doesn’t respond initially but speaks up after a moment, “I still don’t like this…”
“Look, I’ll catch up on my reading and we’ll still have plenty of time to study together.” you shrug, “maybe I need something different this year…I’m always stuck in the same pattern.”
“But you like that pattern.” Hermione responds.
“I did…I mean I do. But it’s our last year here and I don’t want to not do anything.”
The room is silent for a moment, your statement ringing through the air.
“We trust you.” Ginny speaks up for the both of them. Your glance shifts over to Hermione to see her response.
“Just be careful, you know we won’t let anything happen to you.” she says, slightly frowning. You were never going to convince her that this whole thing was a good idea…hell you weren’t even sure of that yet but at least she would stop trying to convince you to say no to Snape.

Happy Sunday release day everyone! I appreciate all of the love and support so far, comment to be added to the taglist for this series <3
----------
The next day, after classes, you head towards the Slytherin house to find Mattheo. You stand outside with your books in your arms as Slytherins come and go.
You stand there, awkwardly, until you see Theo Nott headed your way.
You stop him before he enters the Slytherin house, “hey, it’s Theo right?”
He looks you up and down, “yeah…what do you want?”
“I’m looking for Mattheo. I’m supposed to tutor him.” you say sweetly, smiling awkwardly. This is so uncomfortable.
“Oh so you’re the gryffindor…huh” he raises his eyebrows at the realization, “he’s outside by the black lake”
“Thanks” you say, nodding. Before you turn around and head in that direction, Theo stops you.
“Just don’t bring up his parents,” Theo adds. He looks you in the eyes, genuinely.
“Okay” you say softly, “thank you”
Theo backs away and enters the slytherin house before you turn around and head to the lake. 
When you get outside, you see Mattheo sitting on the dock on the edge of the lake, by himself again. You had the feeling that he was a loner and he liked it that way.
You walk up, him turning his body to look at you once he hears your footsteps.
He turns back around and sighs, “you’re here to tutor me aren’t you?”
“Uhm Snape told me-”
“Yeah I know. I got a little distracted last year and now my grades are shit” he scoffs as he stares out at the lake.
“So uh- I just wanted to drop this book off, it’s not a required one but I find it helpful” You say as you walk up behind him, holding your arm out with the book in your hand.
He looks back at you again but doesn’t take the book, instead he scoots over to make room for you to sit.
You follow his lead and sit down on the dock next to him. You place the book in between you two and try to follow his gaze out onto the water.
“I don’t get how your posse is okay with this, gryffindor.” he finally speaks up.
You glance at him as he still looks straight ahead, “they’re not”
“You’re not either, I can tell” he adds, finally landing his eyes on you.
“No I just-” you start and then hesitate, “I’m not one to leave my comfort zone.”
His eyes flicker down to your hands which you are fiddling with, “I make you nervous don’t I gryffindor? You and your friends think I’ll jinx you at any moment-”
“I don’t think that.” You place your hands on your knees to stop the habit, “I don’t know you at all so why would I think that?”
You pause again before adding, “and my name isn’t Gryffindor.”
“I know but it’s fun to see you roll your eyes every time” he smirks.
“Ok well-” you start before he interrupts.
He squints his eyes at you, “you’re different than I imagined”
“What did you imagine?”
“Somebody who believes what their friends believe because they care way too much about what they think of them to do otherwise” he answers plainly.
“Uhm I have to go…when do you want to meet up?” you ask, changing the subject. You didn’t want to admit it but you did care way too much about what your friends think…but he was wrong about the other half. You had your own beliefs and they didn’t always align with your friends.
“Friday works for me” he responds.
“Oh I can’t do that day, I have a date.”
He laughs before realizing you’re being serious, “with who?”
“Dean…” you trail off.
“Dean? As in Dean Thomas?” He asks, laughing.
“What’s so funny about that?” You were getting annoyed, Dean was a good guy.
“Nothing, I’m just surprised is all.” he shakes his head, “I’m busy the rest of the week so…”
You look at him for a second before deciding, “let’s just meet up right after classes, I just won’t have a long time to stay”
“Right because you have a hot date with Dean Thomas on Friday" he smirks again.
“The book is my extra copy so don’t lose it” you say as you stand up.
“I’ll be extra careful with it” he picks it up as he watches you straighten out your clothes, ready to leave.
“right…I’ll see you friday in the library” you say quickly before leaving. 
One thing you have already learned about Mattheo is that he was highly sarcastic…and loved to get on your nerves. You were just hoping he was tolerable for the next few months, that’s all you needed to get through this.
When you get back to your dorm, Ginny is there, practicing transfiguration on random items from her chest. When she notices you walking in, she stops and sets her wand down on the bed, “hey, where’ve you been?”
“At the black lake” you say nonchalantly as you take your shoes off and set your books down.
“At the lake? Why?” she questions. It wasn’t everyday you went out there.
You look back at her with your eyebrows raised, waiting for her to catch on.
“Oh right, how could I forget? You’re tutoring the son of the guy who tried to kill my boyfriend” she responds as she picks her wand up again and continues what she was doing.
“That’s not fair Ginny” you pout.
She stops and looks over at you before sighing, “I know. I’m sorry, I just don’t like this. Snape could’ve picked anyone else to do this.”
“Do you trust me?” you ask, practically begging for her to answer yes.
“Of course I do!” she says, genuinely.
“Okay then please trust me on this.” 
“It’s not you that I don’t trust. It’s him.” Ginny shrugs, trying to explain herself.
“I can handle myself” 
She purses her lips, staring at you for a second before nodding, “alright fine. No more mean comments from me…for now”
“Thank you” you let out a breath of relief. You know that Hermione won’t be as easy to convince.
“So what’s he like anyways?” She sits on her bed, you standing against the bedpost near her.
“I don’t know.” you shrug, “he’s…not what I expected”
“How so?”
“He’s not exactly insufferable” you pause, “I don’t think he really cares who my friends are actually. It just feels like he thinks-”
“Like he thinks what?”
“Like he thinks that I hate him instantly just because of who I hang out with”
“But don’t you? I mean, he has a reputation and we all know it. Your friends more than anyone.” she explains.
“Sure, I guess they do but that doesn’t mean that all of those rumors are true. And it also doesn’t mean that he’s like Malfoy…or even the rest of them for that matter.” you shrug your shoulders.
“You’re telling me Mattheo Riddle isn’t a slytherin pureblood snob like the rest of his friends?” she gasps.
As she says this, Hermione walks into the dorm, “of course he is. He just hides it well like Tom Riddle did.”
You roll your eyes, “I’m gonna go for a walk” you say just before leaving.
You loved Hermione, really. But you felt like it wasn’t fair to judge Mattheo, at least not anymore. You and your friends had judged him and hated him for the entirety of Hogwarts but now that you’ve been around him, you didn’t understand why…just because of who his parents were? 
You walk to the astronomy tower, deciding to skip dinner. You didn’t want to deal with any more of the razzing about tutoring Mattheo for now. 
When you get up there, you sit along the side wall, feeling the slight breeze against your face. It was still quite warm outside but cool enough to bear. You close your eyes, trying to relax.

Happy release day Sunday! Enjoy <3
comment on any post to be added to the taglist!
----------
Everyone in the class moves around, finding their new assigned potions partner. You find Mattheo sitting across the room, doodling in his potions book.
You walk up to him and sit down at the table as Snape assigns for you to brew felix felicis. 
After Snape dismisses the class to start the potion, Mattheo speaks up, “hi again gryffindor”
You turn to him as he looks up from his book, “I have to get the ingredients”
You walk away, going to the shelf full of vials and jars of various ingredients. Hermione approaches, also looking for ingredients, “you have to switch partners”
You continue looking while you respond, “I can’t just switch Hermione, Snape would have my head”
“Well you can’t possibly be his partner” she insists.
You look to your side, making eye contact with her, “I’ll see what I can do…after class”
She nods before heading back to her seat. Before you walk back, you look over at your table where Mattheo is still doodling. There was something about him that was…intriguing to you. You didn’t know what but you kind of wanted to figure it out.
You walk back, setting the ingredients on the table in front of you. You open your book and start brewing the potion as instructed. Mattheo doesn’t pay any attention to you or the potion, off in his own little world, “are you going to help?” you speak up finally after about 20 minutes.
He looks up at you and raises his eyebrows before he sets down his pencil and starts to help by adding the first ingredients as you stir the cauldron.
You look at your book as you point to the thyme on the table, “put just a dash of that in here”
“You’re being very bossy gryffindor” he teases as he adds the thyme to the cauldron as you continue to stir.
“No I’m not, I just want to get a good grade” you look over to him, “is that okay with you?”
He stares at you for a second before he chuckles, “alright then, let’s get a good grade”
“Thank you” you respond before you continue brewing the potion.
As you guys go about finishing the potion, he’s a lot more helpful, adding the ingredients and stirring.
Mattheo says the incantation to finish the potion just before Snape assigns a paper about the effects and history of felix felicis, due next class, and dismisses everyone.
As you’re putting away the ingredients, Professor Snape walks up to your table and speaks to Mattheo.
You stay back to not eavesdrop but watch them carefully from the ingredients shelves. Mattheo’s jaw clenches as Snape talks to him until Mattheo stands up and storms off.
You walk up to your table slowly, gathering your things. Once you’re done you go up to Hermione, “I’m going to talk to Snape”
“Alright, I’ll meet you outside” She nods, leaving the classroom.
You walk up to his podium, “Professor Snape?”
“Yes?” he responds in a monotone voice as he turns toward you.
“I was wondering if I could switch partners? Mattheo-” you start.
“Needs a tutor.” he interrupts, “Since you two are partners, you will be tutoring him this semester to make sure he stays on top of his academics.”
“But-” you couldn’t believe this! Tutoring mattheo? Seriously?
“It is decided. I’ll see you next class” he motions towards the door, indicating for you to leave.
You walk out of the classroom in shock to see Hermione standing there, “what did he say?”
“I have to tutor him” you say, still in complete shock.
“What? That’s preposterous, we have to-” Hermione starts.
“Do you really think Snape is going to let me off easy? He doesn’t like us, we already know this. I can’t just not do it”
“We’ll think of something, we have to. There’s no way you’re doing this. Mattheo is dangerous. Him and his friends.”
You two walk back to the Gryffindor house and study almost until dinner time when Dean Thomas walks up to you guys.
“Hey, can I talk to you?” Dean asks, looking at you.
“Oh, uh sure” you glance at Hermione who has a small smile on her face before you get up and walk off to the side, away from anyone.
“So I talked to Ginny earlier”
“Oh yeah?” you tilt your side, what could this be about?
“Yeah, she said you would maybe want to go out with me…” he trails off, watching your reaction.
“Ginny said this? But-” you ask. They had dated for a short time. It was never serious but still…
“I promise she’s fine with it if you are” he responds, “but if not-”
“No, I’d love to” you smile, “what time?”
How about Friday at 8?” he asks.
“Ok”
“Ok then” he smiles before adding, “see you later” 
“Yeah” you respond as he walks away.
Ron, Harry, and Ginny enter the Gryffindor house on your way back to Hermione. Harry and Ron change out of their quidditch uniforms before you all start walking to the great hall.
You all sit at the gryffindor table, talking to everyone around you as dinner starts. Once food is served, the room gets much quieter, forcing you to be alone with your thoughts.
Was it so bad that you had to tutor Mattheo? He hadn’t been cold to you in your interactions so far…just indifferent. You could deal with indifference.
Besides, it would force you to work on potions more and probably improve your grade…
You look across the room to the slytherin table, seeing Draco and his posse, Mattheo sitting with them. He's not engaging in the conversation happening around him, much like you right at this moment.
There was something about him that was intriguing. You know he’s dangerous. You’ve tried to avoid him and his friends since you first arrived at Hogwarts…yet now you didn’t really feel the need to. You couldn’t quite place the feeling but you wanted to find out.
You watch him at his table, almost in a sort of trance, until he looks up and makes eye contact with you. You quickly look away, focusing on your food for a second before looking back up at him.
Now he was talking to the girl sitting next to him, Pansy Parkinson. You can’t look away for some reason, curious to know their conversation.
“I’m gonna do it” you blurt out, snapping back to reality.
“Do what?” Ginny retorts, confused.
“I’m gonna tutor Mattheo.” You reply simply.
Hermione gasps as Ron practically yells, “what?”
Harry speaks up, “I can talk to dumbledore maybe he can get someone else to tutor him, let you off the hook”
You look to the side, at Harry, “no I’m going to do this.”
“Why? You're not getting anything out of this!” Hermione exclaims.
“Don’t feel pressured by Snape. If you don’t wanna do it, you don’t have to” Ginny brings up, trying to be a level head.
You glance back at Mattheo for a second, “what’s the worst that can happen? It’s just for one class.” You shrug.
It wouldn’t take a bunch of time and it’s not like you’d be hanging out at all outside of studying time. That was very obvious. 
“You guys…you have to trust me. Please?” You look around the table at your friends. The concern is written on their faces.
“If it gets out of hand or he threatens you or-“ Harry starts.
“It won’t.” You respond quietly.
“We’re just worried. I mean this is mattheo riddle we’re talking about. You-know-who’s son! All we know about him is that he’s a mysterious playboy who parties way too much” Ginny explains. 
“Also, Let’s not forget who his mother is. Bellatrix is clinically insane. I’m sure some of that was passed down to him. Those traits don’t just disappear” Hermione adds. 
You loved them for being so worried but you wanted to do this. It was your last year at Hogwarts and you had decided it was finally time to do something different. Be involved for once.
You had always let your friends have all the adventures but you wanted one of your own and somehow, you had a feeling that Mattheo would be a large part of it.
“It’ll be fine. It’s not like I’m going to fall in love with him or something”

Hi everyone! I am so excited to be back and bring you a new story <3 I have worked on this one throughout the entire school year and it means so much to me!
Enjoy! comment on any chapter to be added to the taglist!
------------
You sit on the couch in the Gryffindor common room, watching the fire crackle as your friends talk in a conversation around you.
“Bloody hell she’s not even listening” Ron waves his hand in front of your face, bringing you back to reality.
“I’m sorry, what?” you turn your attention to the group. Harry, Ron, and Hermione. Ginny was off with Luna, helping her with God knows what.
“I was saying you and I have most of our classes together this year” Hermione speaks up, sitting on the floor just beside you.
“Oh yeah, I’m excited” you smile, “I hope we can pair up together”
“Well since Ron and Harry aren’t in potions with us, maybe we’ll be able to” She picks up her book and hands it to you, “oh and I picked this up in the library earlier for you”
You take the book out of her grasp and look at it, “you’ve already been to the library? We just got here last night” you giggle. Hermione was the smartest person you knew and she absolutely loved reading. She also loved the fact that you also loved to read...maybe not as much as her but close enough. You often tried to read the same book at the same time so you can discuss it and leave notes in the margins for each other.
She was your absolute best friend, her and Ginny both, really.  You and Hermione have known each other since year one at Hogwarts and the Weasley’s were like your second family so you three had bonded really quickly and have been close ever since.
“What else would I have done?” she questions, shrugging, “I had to get an early start”
“Well, thank you” you smile, “are we all ready for our last year at Hogwarts?”
“You know i think I’ll actually miss this place a little bit” Ron says before he snickers, “I can’t believe I just said that”
“Awe you’re gonna miss me Ronald” you fake pout and shake his shoulders, “I’m gonna spend everyday with you this year” you tease.
“Yeah well maybe you’ll finally find a boyfriend so you don’t have to” he laughs. The room goes quiet for a second. 
You had never really dated anyone while at Hogwarts. The death of your dad in your fourth year threw you for a loop and you just didn’t see the point of dating. It was a lot of effort and you wanted to save your firsts for someone that mattered. Someone that you really loved.
Ginny walks in, interrupting the conversation, “what are we talking about?”
“Romance I reckon” Harry says before he stands up, taking Ginny’s hand, “ready?”
“Sure” she smiled before they went off towards Harry’s dorm. They were watching a movie tonight.
“So Ron and I are going to make a trip to Hagrids, wanna join?” Hermione asks as they both stand up.
“Oh, no.” you smile lightly, “thanks though”
“Yeah” she responds. Ron ruffles your hair before they also leave, leaving you sitting in front of the crackling fire alone.
The silence of being alone was already gnawing at you. Your first full day at Hogwarts this year and you were already by yourself, thoughts going every which way.
You sit there staring at the fire for a bit before deciding to go for a walk through the castle and head to the astronomy tower.
Astronomy was your favorite thing in the whole world, it was the one thing you and your dad shared before he died and it always was calming yet exciting to you.
You make your way to the top of the tower and stop in your tracks when you see someone already standing there.
He must’ve heard your footsteps because he turns to see you standing there. It’s Mattheo Riddle. The dark lord’s son.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t know anyone would be up here” you apologize, shifting your weight from one foot to the other.
“It’s fine” he says emotionless before turning back around facing out towards the sky.
You walk up slowly next to him, leaning on the rail awkwardly.
You look to the side, glancing at him. He’s smoking a cigarette, just staring out at the black lake.
“Do you want one? You’re staring” he speaks up, startling you.
“No, sorry” you look away.
He turns to his side, looking at you, “you notice how you keep apologizing?”
“Sorry, I don’t-” you stop, realizing you apologized again, “I wasn’t expecting to see you up here”
“You’re one of Potter’s friends, aren’t you?” he asks, tilting his head while waiting for your answer.
“Why does it matter?” you ask. You loved Harry but he did receive all the attention, all the time. 
“It doesn’t” he shakes his head as he purses his lips, “not to me anyway”
You didn’t know how to respond so you don’t. You stand there, next to Mattheo Riddle, watching the starry sky above you.
“I’ll see you around Gryffindor” he says as he finishes his cigarette before throwing it down and twisting it under his shoe.
Without another word, he walks back down the stairs. Just a few minutes later, you decide to walk back to your dorm to go to bed now that it was late. As you walk through the castle, the faint smell of mahogany and cigarettes lingers on your nose. The distinct smell of Mattheo Riddle.
Before tonight, you hadn’t spoken two words to him. He was a complete mystery to you…you knew nothing about him other than who his parents are.
When you get back to your dorm, Ginny isn’t back but Hermione is, reading in bed.
“Where were you?” she asks, her attention turning to you.
“Uh I went on a walk” you say as you take your shoes off and go into the bathroom to wash your face and get ready for bed.
“Why do you smell like cigarettes?” she pries, following you into the bathroom.
“Mattheo was there” you shrug nonchalantly.
“As in Riddle? You know who’s son?” she gasps.
You turn to her, “Hermione he literally was just smoking and then left. We barely even talked” you explain yourself.
“I don’t like you talking to him.” she shakes her head, “he’s bad news, him and his friends. You know this.”
“Yeah I know…” you trail off, “it won’t happen again…happy?”
She looks at you for a second contemplating before nodding. You smile lightly and walk past her before getting into bed and turning off your bedside lamp.
You did mean it, what was the chance that you would ever talk to Mattheo again? Whatever it was, it was very slim. 
“Goodnight” you say, pulling up your blankets.
“Goodnight” Hermione responds. She reads until Ginny gets back and then goes to bed, ready for classes the next day.
When you wake up, Hermione is already awake and fixing her tie before putting her sweater over the top.
You get ready quickly before heading down to your first class, potions. Snape has never cared much for you or your group so you were hoping that you and Hermione could pair up together and do really well. Maybe he would finally be impressed, or even just satisfied.
You sit at a table next to Hermione, talking quietly until Professor Snape enters the room. The class goes completely silent as soon as he walks in.
“I will be pairing you up with an assigned partner for your last year at Hogwarts. I expect everyone to get along and do your work efficiently” Snape says as he stands at the front of the classroom at a small podium.
He begins listing off names, assigning everyone a partner from a different house.
“Hermione Granger with Padma Patil” you exchange glances with Hermione. Padma is sweet but now you’re left with a partner other than Hermione for the entire school year.
You snap back to reality when you hear your name be called, “...with Mattheo Riddle.”
No. Oh God no. Not the dark lord’s son. This can’t be happening.

The Stupid Closet (36) finale*
Tumblr media
Happy finale day everyone! I cannot believe this day is here, this story has been my baby for so long and now that it's out, I'm feeling very sentimental. Thank you everyone for your continued support for this story, it means so much to me. I will more stuff coming out very soon so stay tuned!! (also, if you have any specific requests for ANY Slytherin guy, please message me!)
enjoy this for the last time <3 ALSO: reminder that the * in the title means this chapter contains explicit content!!
-----------
You spin around, the potion still in your hand, to see Mattheo not even a foot behind you, “where have you been?”
“Not important, what’s important is that you are about to buy love potion when I’m already in love with you” He shrugs.
You decide to let the topic go as Pansy starts aweing at you, “what if I told you it was for Pansy and her date?”
“Her date?” Mattheo asks, walking up to you, your chests touching.
You look up to him, “oh by the way we’re going on a double date with Pansy and Draco” 
Mattheo doesn’t break his eye contact with you. At this point, your lips are just inches away from connecting, “congrats Pansy”
She laughs lightly as Blaise and Theo walk up, “you guys are disgusting” Blaise states, making a puking noise in the process.
Mattheo turns his head to look at Blaise, “fuck off man” he says before turning back and grabbing your chin, kissing you.
“Oh bloody hell” Draco exclaims as he joins the group, rolling his eyes.
You back away, “Hi Draco” you smirk.
He looks between you and Pansy and rolls his eyes again before you laugh again.
You realize the love potion bottle is still in your hands so you quickly put it back down on the shelf before Mattheo whispers, “glad you know better”
You turn back around, the group now paying no attention to the two of you, “But do I?” 
He smirks, “I mean…I could remind you if you want” he shrugs.
“Uh hey guys?” you speak up. The group’s attention shifts back to you as you hold Mattheo’s hand, “we’re gonna go”
“Why?” Blaise asks.
Mattheo winks at them as you rush out, grabbing his arm and pulling him behind you.
“Disgusting!” Blaise yells, the rest of the group laughing.
You and Mattheo practically run back to the castle, heading straight for his dorm. 
He pushes you up against the door after he shuts it and starts to kiss your neck, holding your hands captive above your head.
“I need you right now” you moan as he kisses your collarbone, sending a chill down your spine. 
“Patience” he coos, his hot breath lingers.
You pout as he backs away until he starts to unbuckle his belt. As you watch him hungrily, you pull your tank top over your arms and throw it to the side. He watches you as you unclip your bra behind your back before pulling it off, leaving your top half exposed.
He starts to unbutton his shirt as you pull your shorts off, the panties coming off along with them. You look at him, fully exposed. He stands just a few feet away, his shirt half unbuttoned as he places his hand over his chest, taking you in. 
“God you’re beautiful” his eyes soften, just looking at you. How did you get so lucky?
You walk up to him as he pulls his shirt off and tosses it to the floor. You wrap your arms around his neck as he wraps his arms around your back, lifting you up to him. 
“I love you” you say softly, getting lost in his eyes.
“I love you”he replies, using one of his hands to hold your chin before pulling you in and kissing you. 
As the kiss intensifies, he leads you backwards until you hit the end of the bed and fall backwards. You prop yourself up with your shoulders as he stands there, pulling his pants and boxers off. He puts a condom on, always prepared.
He climbs back on top of you, kissing your stomach and working his way up until he reaches your lips again. 
You feel him go down inside you, forcing a groan out of you as you squeeze your eyes shut. You grab onto the sheets around you as he picks up his pace just a little bit.
“Fuck” he mutters as he goes deeper inside you. 
“Holy shit” you cry out, opening your eyes and watching him.
You can tell he’s close, he falters just a little bit in his movements, “Matty I’m almost there”
“Cum for me baby” he breathes out, slowing his pace even more, agonizing you until you feel your high. You desperately grab his arm that’s propped up by you.
Only a second later do you feel him finish before he pulls outs, breathing heavily and lightly sweating.
He wipes you off with a towel before he climbs onto the bed.
“I missed you today” he coos as he leaves traces of his kiss on your collarbone, propped up on top of you.
“I missed you too...” you let out a breath, “you disappeared on me today”
“I know, I’m sorry” he breathes out, his curly hair brushing the side of your face.
“Where were you?” you ask, curious to what he was doing the whole trip to Hogsmeade. 
“It’s a surprise,” he whispers in your ear.
“You know I hate surprises” you smirk and tilt your head as you touch his cheek, forcing him to look at you.
He looks you in the eye for a second, with those very same brown doe eyes that you fell for, before he gets up and walks over to where his pants are on the floor, He picks them up and searches in the pocket for a moment before finding what he wants.
He pulls out a small jewelry box and hands it to you, “I was getting this for you.” You sit up on the bed and grab the small box from his grip.
You look down at the box before looking back up to him as he sits down on the bed, “Mattheo…”
“Open it” he motions to you.
You open the box to find a small ring, matching the one he wears. The one from the greenhouse.
“Are you serious?” you smile up at him, “Mattheo this is…” you were speechless.
“Deadly.” he grins, “I know you liked mine” he shrugs.
You take it out of the box and place it on your right ring finger as he continues, “I had this nice dinner planned and everything but you are so stubborn”
You smile lightly before looking down at the ring. Your smile fades a little bit, Mattheo instantly noticing, “hey what’s wrong?”
“Do you think we’ll make it?” you ask, “I mean like after Hogwarts. I never, ever want to lose you” 
“Woah, mi amor, you will never lose me, ok?” he pushes a strand of your hair behind your ear, “we’ve been through way too much this year to not make it”
“Yeah all because of that stupid closet” you laugh.
“It’s not so stupid anymore is it?” he smiles.
“Not at all” you smile in return.

The Stupid Closet (35)
Tumblr media
Happy Sunday release day everyone! I can’t believe there’s only ONE chapter to release of this story after this one🥹 it feels very bittersweet!
enjoy <3
—————-
A few months later, you and Mattheo became stronger than ever. It didn’t take any time to get back to where you guys were before the breakup, but it was even better the second time around.
You guys had snuck around and hooked up in almost every part of the castle and never once got caught, Mattheo was quite proud of that fact. “You’re mine and only mine to see” he said quite often.
It’s the week of your N.E.W.T.S exams which means your time at Hogwarts is almost over. Everyone in the group was studying like crazy but you particularly had been hunkering down and doing everything you could to finish top of your class. Hermione and Draco were both also in the running which made it harder but you were super determined.
“Hey, you ready?” Mattheo asks from across the room. The room was taking one last field trip to Hogsmeade this semester while everyone waited for their test scores.
“Uh, just a second” you finish your mascara in the bathroom as he walks in behind you and wraps his arms around you, “Matty!” you gasp.
“Lets go pretty lady” he lightly sways you back and forth as you set down your mascara wand and place your arms over his.
You both look into the mirror, “we look pretty good, don’t we Mr. Riddle?” you grin ear to ear.
Before he can respond, Pansy leans into the doorway, “let’s go lovebirds!”
“You’re taking for bloody ever” Draco bursts in as well, “we’re gonna leave you behind”
“Alright! We’re coming!” you grab your bag as Mattheo flips Draco the middle finger. You all walk down to the common room and meet up with the rest of the group before making the small trek to Hogsmeade.
As you were walking, your mind started to wander. All you could think about was that your time at Hogwarts was almost over…what would happen with your friend group? You were sure that everyone would stay close one way or another but it would be really tough not seeing each other every day. They were your chosen family.
Mattheo’s hand squeezes yours to bring you back to reality, “where do you want to go first mi amor?”
Hogsmeade was quite busy, the weather being absolutely perfect outside. Many students are itching for summer and now that exams are finishing, many are taking the trip to Hogsmeade just like your group is.
“You pick” you smile. Mattheo leads you into Honeydukes without a second thought. The boy had a major sweet tooth but would never openly admit it.
You walk around the store for a while, picking out all of your favorite treats. You lose Mattheo in the process but find Draco instead.
“I can’t wait to leave this pathetic school. If I’m lucky, I won’t have to see Potter ever again either” he scoffs.
“Dream on D, it’s never going to happen” you laugh.
“What’s he dreaming about? Kissing Pansy?” Theo walks up behind us teasing Draco.
Draco flips him off and rolls his eyes as Theo smirks and winks at me, “where’s Mattheo?”
“No clue” you shrug, looking around.
“He’s around here somewhere” Theo responds, nudging you, “wanna grab a butterbeer really quick bellezza?”
“Sure” you smile. You and Theo head to the Three Broomsticks while Draco hangs behind…he absolutely hates butterbeer.
You run into Blaise on your way there, “hey have you seen Mattheo?” you ask.
“Uh, no actually” Blaise furrows his eyebrows.
“Oh…Ok well we’re getting butterbeer, wanna join?” you ask. You were just a little bit worried but didn’t want to ruin your day at Hogsmeade so you were going to try to ignore it.
“Oh 100%” Blaise says as he walks with you guys. The three of you each get a butterbeer, sitting down and talking about how exams went and what each other’s summer entailed.
“When’s everyone meeting at Malfoy Manor?” Theo asks before he takes a sip of his drink.
“Uh, I think the second week of July?” While you were staying at Malfoy Manor for the month of July while your parents traveled, the rest of the group decided to all join in and visit as well. Draco and his parents also invited Mattheo to stay for the time you are going to be there and you are so grateful. Narcissa was practically your second mother and knew the two of you were dating so she jumped right on it as soon as she found out you’d be staying with the Malfoy’s.
“Mr. Malfoy scares me,” Blaise speaks up.
Theo bursts out in laughter as you respond, “Lucius isn’t that bad”
“He definitely is though” Blaise laughs before he chugs the rest of his drink down, “Nah, Mattheo’s dad takes the cake actually”
At the mention of Mattheo, you instantly perk up. You were anxious about where he might be right now. You trusted him 100% but it still scared you that nobody had seen him in a while.
You look around the busy tavern as Theo and Blaise continue their conversation. You’re glad Draco didn’t join since Hermione and Ron are on a date in the corner; he would’ve blown a gasket.
Surprisingly Mattheo never really cared about what Potter or his posse were up to, he would listen but shrug it off and you actually loved that about him. You had been harsh calling Melanie a mudblood, that was Draco speaking, you spent way too much time with him.
“You okay?” Theo says to bring you back to reality.
“Oh yeah, I’m fine,” you smile.
You tune back into the boys’ conversation before Pansy walks in and straight up to your table, “I need your help”
“Right now?” you ask, still finishing your drink.
“Yes, right now.” She widens her eyes, signaling she has something to share with you.
“Ok, uh-” you start as you hand Theo your mug. Once you stand up, she practically drags you out of the store and into another, a small clothes shop that was quite empty.
She starts pacing before you speak up, “Okay what is going on?”
“I convinced Draco…” she says as she continues to pace around the small room.
“Convinced Draco to…” you question, still not understanding.
“Hang out…”
You furrow your eyebrows, they hang out all the time, they’re literally friends.
“As in go on a date” she blurts out. You widen your eyes in shock, you don’t know what to say.
“Oh my god Pansy!” You would have to talk to Draco immediately, this is almost like a miracle.
“I need you and Mattheo there. He only agreed to a double date with you guys and I am not going to let Draco change his mind-”
“We’ll be there” you smile, cutting off her rambling.
“Really?” she asks, her face lighting up, “Mattheo will be ok with it?”
“I’ll make him be okay with it” you shrug, “plus, I think he’ll understand the gravity of the situation”
“Ok” she takes a deep breath, “ok, good…”
“I’m excited for you! This is a big deal” you smile.
“I’m already nervous, so thank you for that”
You look out the window and across the street to the Weasley twins’ joke shop, “I have a perfect idea”
You lead Pansy out of the shop into the joke shop across the street. The place was bustling, people laughing left and right. You see the rest of your group minus Mattheo looking through the selection.
You lead Pansy through the crowd, making a beeline right towards the stand with love potions. You pick one up, showing it to Pansy, “if you’re so worried about it, try this”
“You don’t think I’ve tried that?” she shakes her head, “no, I can’t. He’d kill me if he found out again��
You laugh until you hear a familiar voice behind you, “you don’t need that”

The Stupid Closet (34)
Tumblr media
Hello everyone! Happy release day Sunday. Only 2 more chapters to release after this one🥹
enjoy!
—————-
The next morning when you wake up, Theo is in the shower and Mattheo is getting dressed. When he notices you’re awake he smiles lightly, “Good morning”
“What time is it?” you ask as you sit up in bed. Mattheo finishes buttoning his pants up and grabs his shirt, fixing it so he can put it in and button it up.
“Uh, just after 8 I think?” He poses it as a question as he pulls his shirt on. You can’t help but stare at him as he buttons up his shirt before he walks over to his chair and grabs the belt laying on top of it.
He loops it around and buckles it before he looks in his mirror and sees you staring blankly at him. He turns around, “what?” he laughs.
“Nothing” you look away as you get out of bed, “I uh have to go get ready for class”
“Ok…” he watches you, “see you later”
“Yeah, see you later” you mutter as you walk out and close the door behind you.
God you’re so stupid! He totally caught you staring at him.
You throw on your school clothes and robes quickly before you go to class, Draco is waiting impatiently in the common room for you by the time you get down there.
“What took you so long?” He questions when he notices you.
“Sorry I didn’t have my normal alarm” you both start walking together.
“Pansy didn’t wake you up?”
“Uh…no I wasn’t in my room” you respond quietly hoping he wouldn’t hear you.
He doesn’t respond, raising his eyebrows waiting for an explanation.
“I went to Mattheo’s room” you shrug like it’s not a big deal.
“Oh? What happened?”
You side eye him, “nothing happened…we just slept”
He’s about to respond when Theo walks up, “just so you know, Mattheo is all giddy”
You groan as they laugh, walking into the first class. The school day goes by quickly, you being occasionally distracted by everything happening. You had sworn that you and Mattheo were done but it was just so natural. He was your comfort and as much as you didn’t want to admit it, you needed him.
After classes are done for the day, you sit at the desk in the slytherin common room working on homework for history of magic.
You write down the end of a paragraph when Mattheo walks up and leans up against the desk, “hey”
“Hi matty” you smile, “what’s up?”
“Oh nothing” he shakes his head as he purses his lips and looks into the distance, avoiding your gaze.
“What’d you do?”
“Nothing!” he repeats before he looks at you and adds, “I just had a nice little conversation with Melanie”
You tilt your head waiting for him to add on to that statement.
“I know you don’t need me to defend you but I needed to tell her to fuck off”
“Okay…what’d she say?” You were trying not to sound happy but you were miserably failing.
“The bitch cried when I told her I didn’t want her,” he smirks.
You return the smirk, “awe karma” you look away, the eye contact too much.
“I did tell her something else though…” he trails off. You look back to him, “I told her we were still together”
“Oh…” you think it over, “well…if it keeps her away then that’s alright” you shrug. You didn’t mind you and Mattheo being together still, even if it was just for pretend. It was almost better as pretend…you could forgive him completely.
“Really?” he asks, looking into your eyes. He was desperately hoping that you were ok with it because you wanted to be with him again. And you did…but that didn’t change what he had done.
“I mean it’s just pretend” you shrug.
“Right…” he backs away, “I uh- I’ll let you get back to homework then” he says before he stands up straight and walks away.
You watch him walk away before you turn around and try to continue with your work. Unfortunately for you, you were super distracted now. You wanted to forgive Mattheo. You really did. But there was still a part of you that felt like he thought he needed to save you. You love that he’s protective but you want to fight your own battles and you’ve told him that since the start.
After finally finishing your work, it’s almost time for dinner so you go up to your room to take a quick shower before you go down to the great hall.
Pansy wasn’t in the room, most definitely bothering Draco. She wanted to go to Hogsmeade this weekend and was trying to convince him to go.
You leave the bathroom door open as you start the water, waiting for it to warm up. You undress completely but as you open the curtain to step in, your dorm door opens with Mattheo bursting in.
“I stopped,” he blurts out before he realizes you’re naked. He looks you up and down for a second as you shift uncomfortably. He hadn’t seen you naked in a while and you cared about his opinion way too much for your own good.
“Stopped what?”
“I stopped hitting Mclaggen. I heard your voice in the back of my head so I backed off but-”
You furrow your eyebrows, “but what?”
“He started saying shit about you and I just lost it”
“What did he say?” you shift uncomfortably again, still standing there completely naked.
He shakes his head as his jaw clenches just thinking about it.
“Tell me Mattheo” you insist. The water is still running behind you but you don’t even notice.
He rolls his eyes as he looks away from you before sighing, “he uh- he started describing you in bed and just shit like that, okay?”
You don’t say anything but you feel light headed all of a sudden. This changes everything. You had been so mad at Mattheo for not trusting you that you never had asked him exactly what happened. You had always just assumed that he seeked him out and showed ‘no mercy’ but instead, he stopped the fight and Cormac was the one that had egged him on.
“Talk to me” Mattheo steps forward and is now only inches away from you.
You look up into his eyes as your lips part but there aren’t any words that come out. You didn’t know what to say…
“Why didn’t you tell me?” you whisper.
“Because I didn’t want you to know. You don’t deserve any of his words” he reaches his arms up, combing them through his curly hair, “but God I just…I love you and it was killing me that you didn’t know.”
You look back and forth between his eyes in complete disbelief.
“I-” you hesitate, “I love you too and-”
You don’t even have time to finish your sentence before he wraps his arms around your waist, smashing your lips together.
The kiss is sloppy and quick. You had both been waiting for this. Needing this.
“God I missed you” he mutters out between kisses.
“I need you right now” you respond.
WIthout another word, he pulls away and unbuttons his shirt as you work at his shoes then his belt. He throws them scattered on the floor as he pushes his pants down to the ground. You back away to look at him, take him all in as he does the same to you.
He pulls you in for another kiss before he lets go. You back into the shower, giving Mattheo a sultry stare as he pulls his boxers off and follows you in.

The Stupid Closet (33)
Tumblr media
Hello everyone! Happy Sunday release day :) 3 chapters left after this one!
enjoy <3
—————-
Mattheo holds you in his arms for a while, letting the time pass in silence. His presence was enough and he knew that. You eventually stop crying and are just sitting there, the outside world not even existing anymore. It was just the two of you, the way you liked it.
“What’re you thinking?” He finally speaks up.
You kinda laugh, “I don’t even know…” you let the silence sink in for a second before continuing, “I wish I could start over”
“What do you mean?” He asks, his full attention on you.
“This year or even just the past two months…it’s gone very differently than what I pictured” you shrug.
“Was it good or bad?” His voice was anxious. You could feel his heartbeat quicken just a little. He desperately wants to know your answer to his question.
“Some of it was very good…just different. Other parts haven’t been so nice…” you trail off.
Both of you understood what that meant. The good parts were you two…the not so good parts were the last two months.
“I know what you mean,” he responds gently.
You’re still in his arms, the warmth of him makes you feel so safe.
The room stays silent for what feels like eternity after his response until you add, “l just wish it was all easier” you say just loud enough for Mattheo to hear.
“I know.” He responds.
You sit in between his legs as you begin to mess with his hands, observing the rings he’s wearing.
You pause at one you don’t recognize on his pinkie, “this one’s new, when did you get it?”
It's a simple silver and emerald band but it fits him and his personality so well.
“Oh I uh- I got it for my birthday” he holds his hand up, watching you as you play with it.
“I love it.” You say before you look up to him, your eyes meeting for the first time in a while.
“Yeah” he coos, staring at you, “me too”
You suddenly were very aware of the closeness between the two of you…but you didn’t seem to care. Something had shifted between the two of you.
“Matty?” You ask.
“Yeah?”
“You’re staring” you joke with him as you smile lightly.
“Sure am,” he smirks.
“Mattheo riddle, have you gone soft on me?” You laugh.
“No never” he scrunches his face, shaking his head.
The silence after your laughs lingers, “thank you” you say.
“I’m always here for you, I hope you know that” he shrugs like it’s no big deal.
“I know…” you trail off as you stand up, grabbing Mattheo’s hand to pull him up, “God I need a shower”
“Let’s go get cleaned up then” he smiles.
You two walk back to the Slytherin House together and go to your dorm. Pansy was probably somewhere in the castle following Draco around so the room was empty, leaving just the two of you alone.
You walk to the bathroom and start the water, mattheo stopping in the frame of the door.
You turn around and face Mattheo as you wait for the water to warm up, “Mattheo I don’t know how to say thank you enough…”
“You already know I’d do anything for you…” he trails off, “I’d better go then..”
“Oh…yeah sure” you respond. For some reason, you hadn’t expected him to leave and honestly didn’t want him to.
He turns around to leave, walking to the door until he stops and turns back around as you pull your shirt over your head.
He looks you up and down before he opens his mouth like he’s about to say something but then hesitates before finally speaking up, “I’ll uh see you later?’
“Okay” you smile, teeth showing. You were losing your self control by the second, you were letting Mattheo back in and it felt good.
You take your shower after he leaves, thinking about Mattheo the entire time. It’s such a nice feeling, like you have a crush on him all over again.
Theo comes in to get you for dinner, “Mattheo told me he found you, I was worried about you” he says as you walk down together.
“I’m sorry, I just needed air…” you loved Theo but spared him the details.
“What happened? What did she say to you?” He questions, curious.
“It’s not important Theo, I promise I’m fine now” you didn’t want to recall the situation.
You sit down at the table, sitting across from Mattheo. The group was discussing the current drama with Harry Potter and his posse but you couldn’t seem to focus.
You see Melanie across the room as you eat dinner, talking to her friends like she’s the hottest thing which only makes you burn inside. You didn’t want to be upset but couldn’t help thinking about how you had let her affect you.
You look away from her and meet eyes with Mattheo. He could read you easily, noticing your slight frown, your eyebrows furrowing just a little bit. Nobody else at the table seemed to notice.
You try to ignore Melanie across the room for the rest of the meal but you can feel Mattheo’s gaze on you, watching your every move.
“Hey where were you earlier? I saw Theo in the library but you weren’t with him” Draco asks.
“Uhm” you hesitate.
“Wait because I saw Theo practically sprinting back to the slytherin house, what happened? Are you ok?” Pansy asks. You love her so much but this wasn’t the time nor the place to reveal that you had spent your evening in the greenhouse crying with Mattheo.
You stumble for your words, not sure how to respond when Mattheo interrupts, “shes fine, drop it”
They glance between the two of you as you stare at Mattheo, silently thanking him for interjecting before you had to answer.
The subject is dropped instantly and everyone moves on thankfully. After you get through dinner, you walk back to your dorm with Pansy as she’s explaining how Draco has been flirting with her more lately.
You and Pansy continue to gossip all night without her bringing up the situation at dinner, you weren’t sure if she was more scared to know what happened to you or to know about what Mattheo had to do with it.
As you get ready for bed, Pansy starts, “So uh…I wasn’t gonna bring this up but I saw you looking at her at dinner…” You swear that your hair stands up on the back of your neck as she continues, “I overheard her and she said that she and Mattheo are together.”
You knew it wasn’t true, “Oh? Since when?”
“She said this afternoon he came to her and confessed his feelings”
You nod like you believe, “oh”
She watches you like you might lose it at any second, “are you ok?”
“Uh yeah I think so…” you respond, nodding your head. You knew Melanie had been lying and that Mattheo would never do that to you but the idea still pops in your head.
You both get into bed, Pansy falling asleep pretty quickly as you lay in bed staring at the ceiling.
Mattheo and you still had a lot to talk about but something has shifted…changed with you guys today. You don’t know how but he had found you and had done nothing but just be there. He was exactly the presence you needed in that moment, nobody else.
You try to close your eyes but your mind runs in a million different directions, causing you to just lay there listening to Pansy lightly snore.
As much as you don’t want to, you picture Melanie and Mattheo together and recall the dream you had when you two first broke up. What if he ended up with her in that scenario? He could’ve…
You sit up and look around before you make a spontaneous and probably bad decision. You get up and slip on socks as quietly as you can before you open the door and leave your dorm. It's quiet outside, most people asleep by now.
You make your way down the dim hallway until you reach Mattheo’s dorm. You open the old, creaking door slowly to see both guys asleep with the room pitch black without the sliver of light you’re letting in.
You walk in and close the door behind you. You walk up to Mattheo’s bed, him sleeping on his side. You open the covers, climbing under as he opens his eyes.
He doesn’t say a word but reaches his arm around you, spooning you.
As soon as you lay down in his arms, you realize that there was no way he would ever be with Melanie. Because who was he with all afternoon comforting? You. Not her.
You instantly fall asleep, warm in his arms.

The Stupid Closet (32)
Tumblr media
Hello everyone! Sorry I am a day late, I was on a trip with friends. I cannot believe we’re reaching the end of the story…4 more chapters to go after this!
enjoy <3
—————-
When you had woken up the next day with a terrible headache and wearing your Mattheo shirt, you went to talk to him. You didn’t remember much after taking your shirt off during poker…the rest was a blur. He didn’t really tell you much, just said that he took you back to your dorm and put you to bed but you couldn’t help but feel there was more to it.
You and him had spent quite a bit of time together this week, in the library of course, working on Trelawney’s project. This meant that you had barely seen Theo since the weekend and you missed him. He had felt terrible that he was the one who suggested you get drunk and helped you cure your hangover with greasy comfort food and he apologized profusely before he suggested a study date, just the two of you.
“I swear Snape has it out for me, this fucking class is so hard” Theo says frustrated.
“You and me both” you say sighing as you stare at your potions homework. Typically Draco joins in the study sessions but he’s busy since his father is making a visit to Hogsmeade.
“No way, you’re so much smarter than me” He closes his book, “In fact, you’re smarter than Granger.”
“No I’m not” you laugh. You were pretty intelligent but had never beaten Hermione for top of the class.
“Well I think you are…” he trails off, “I have a dumb question for you”
“Hm?” you hum, turning your attention to him.
“What’s the deal with you and Mattheo?”
You hesitate, this was really weird for you, “I uh-”
“You can tell me the truth. You can trust me” he makes it a point to be gentle, like you’re going to lose it at any moment.
“We kissed.” you admit, “but it doesn’t mean anything.”
“Right…but it does.” he nudges your side, “I know you better than that”
“I almost wish it didn’t” you whisper just loud enough for him to hear. Without another word, he opens his arm and you lean into his side. Theo had been such a comfort even though everything that happened in the fall, “I’m checked out” you add.
“Me too” he sighs.
“Why don’t I go find the book we need for history of magic? That’s an easier class” you suggest.
“Sure, I’ll be here” he smiles.
You get out of your seat and head to the aisle the book will be in when Melanie Zorra walks up to you.
“You’re really fucking stupid, you know that?” She spits at you.
“Excuse me?”
“Why in hell would you dump Mattheo?” Shit.
“I don’t really feel like talking about this with you Melanie” you say in a monotone voice.
“It’s because of Theo isn’t it? Mattheo told me all about your little sleeping buddy” This piques your interest. You turn towards her and give her your full attention.
“You don’t know what you’re talking about”
“Oh really? I just saw you with him and it looked pretty friendly” she emphasizes the last word to make her point.
“It’s not what it looks like” you try to explain yourself, “Maybe if-”
“It looks like you’re a dirty little slut who can’t make up her mind.” She steps forward as she interrupts “I’ll make your mind up for you…you lost your chance with Mattheo.”
Suddenly you’re pulled back to the argument. The word ‘slut’ coming out of Mattheo’s mouth repeats over and over in your head.
“Not so tough now are you?” She laughs, “I warned you he’d come back to me. You were just a pit stop he slept with. It wasn’t anything real”
This time instead of wanting to punch her, you felt a large pit in your stomach. Lately you and Mattheo had made up but what if she was right? What if he just wanted to sleep with you the whole time? It all started when he walked in on you having sex with his best friend…what if it was a game to him?
“I have to go,” you say quietly, walking around her. She smirks as you leave, taking another route to be careful not to run into Theo. You couldn’t be here anymore and you knew Theo would stop you if he saw you.
You practically run through the castle trying not to cry until you make it out to the greenhouses. You sit in the corner, next to a table. You don’t even notice the soil on the ground as you bring your legs up to your chest, your tears starting to fall.
You had been telling yourself that maybe, just maybe, you and Mattheo could work things out but now your mind was running a mile a minute and wouldn’t stop. All you could think of was the branding ‘slut’, like it was written across your forehead.
—----
Mattheo is in his dorm when Theo bursts in, “I can’t find her”
“What?” Mattheo asks, confused.
“One second she was there studying and the next she was gone! I saw Melanie and asked her if she knew anything and she said they had a little run in and-”
“Where were you guys?”
“The library”
Mattheo instantly is taking off out the door, Theo following him.
“You check the gardens” Mattheo gives Theo an order, separating them as they head different ways.
Mattheo checks the astronomy tower but you’re nowhere to be seen.
He runs his hands through his curly hair, trying to think of where you would be. He had to find you.
‘I have a greenhouse back home and any time I got in trouble, I would hide in there. It made me feel safe’
Herbology was your favorite class and it was close to the library. That’s where you are.
Mattheo immediately takes off in that direction. He knows he’s right when he hears gentle crying after sticking his head into one of the greenhouses.
“Hey” he says gently as he comes up to you, squatting in front of you, “what happened?”
You just shake your head, crying too much to talk.
“You’re alright. I’m here” he says as he grabs you and brings you to his chest. He lets you cry for what seems like 20 minutes before he says another word, “what did she say to you?”
“It doesn’t matter because she’s right. You’re right.” You sniffle, the tears still falling but not as heavy now.
“Right about what?”
“I’m just a slut.” you say barely above a whisper.
“Woah, hold on.” Mattheo grabs your face, “You are not a slut. You never have been and you never will be, alright?”
You look into his eyes with tears streaming down your cheeks still. You didn’t know what to say.
“I’m sorry I ever put that in your head” you close your eyes until he adds, “look at me, Melanie is just a jealous bitch because she will never be you. I will never even like her like I love you”
Love? As in present tense?
“She is a jealous bitch” you say with a shaky voice, you both laughing.
“Tell me what to do to make you feel better,” Mattheo says, still looking into your eyes.
“Just be here” you say through your tears.
“Ok” he responds as he fully sits down and pulls you into his chest.

New Year's Kiss - MR
Tumblr media
Happy new years everyone! 2024 gave me so much to be grateful as I started my writing journey here and I cannot wait to see what 2025 brings. Thank you all for all of your support <3
Summary: you miss Mattheo on New Years Eve after a fight between the two of you creates animosity
warnings: suggestive content
word count: ~1k
-----------
It’s New Year's Eve at Hogwarts, the whole castle buzzing with excitement. Students in every house had agreed to be in on the castle party, creating one of the biggest and best kept secrets from professors in recent history.
The room of requirement has been transformed into a large banquet room, ready to host over a hundred kids or more. The drinks have been spiked and the music was blasting, bodies standing all over the place.
You would actually quite enjoy this setting if it weren’t for the fact that you and Mattheo had gotten into a huge fight a few days ago and haven’t made up yet. It was over a stupid topic but both your and Mattheo’s egos have gotten in the way, forcing the two of you to go into the silent treatment with each other.
‘You’re stupid if you think he was just trying to be nice and help you out. He obviously wanted in your pants.’
‘Oh that’s really mature of you Mattheo. Congratulations on being an asshole.’
‘Fuck you.’
‘Yeah well fuck you too.’
The argument replays in your head. Both of you knew how to get under each other’s skin and when you’re mad, your words shoot to kill; the same goes for Mattheo.
You stand alone in the corner in the room sipping on your drink, observing everybody around you. To no surprise, Mattheo hasn’t shown yet. He wasn’t one to like parties, especially not alone so him not showing up made a lot of sense. A small part of you, the part that wasn’t mad at him anymore, kept looking at the door hoping to see him enter.
This would be the third new year of your and Mattheo’s relationship and the previous two years had been spent together, kissing at midnight and separating from the rest of the group afterwards to ring in the new year properly…
“Hey, you doing ok?” Pansy asks, walking up to you and snapping you back to reality. You hadn’t wanted to come to the party either but she had convinced you otherwise, practically begging you to come.
“I’m fine.” you respond quickly, “seriously, go have fun.”
“You miss him don’t you?” she smirks slightly. She was the number one fan of the relationship you and Mattheo had, she knew all of the stuff you had been through together and was genuinely your number one supporter.
You tilt your head, “what makes you say that?”
“sweetie, you wouldn’t be able to fool anyone right now, let alone me.” she laughs, “just admit it…”
You purse your lips, “maybe just a little…”
“Go be with him…you know you want to.” she shrugs, sipping the drink in her hand.
“I don’t know…” you shake your head, “either way, I’m fine. Don’t worry about me!”
She glances between your eyes, looking suspicious before speaking up, “alright fine but I will get you on that dance floor at some point tonight...if you’re still here later”
“Sure thing, I can’t wait.” you smile fakely. You check your watch, 11:42pm, “it’s almost time, you better go find a guy to kiss”
“Oh trust me, I have my eyes on someone already” she smirks and starts walking away.
“Take it easy on Draco” you say louder than normal. She flips her middle finger at you before she disappears back into the crowd.
You slowly make your way over to the liquor table, refilling your drink as you notice a couple, both Ravenclaw’s, across the room. They were standing close to each other, the guy with his arms wrapped around the girl’s back and her arms hanging around his neck as they gently sway to the loud party music in the background.
The feeling in the pit of your stomach was nagging at you, eating away at your pride. Who even cared if you were right in your argument with Mattheo? Now, it seemed like it doesn’t even matter anymore, you just wanted him.
You move your glance over to Theo across the room, who is making out with his new girlfriend. You watch for a few more seconds before looking back down at the watch on your wrist, now reading 11:49pm. Eleven minutes until the New Year and Mattheo was nowhere in sight.
Your heart aches, wanting your love by your side. The mixture of sounds from the party were suddenly hurting your ears.
You set down your full drink on the table before walking out, leaving behind the party. You didn’t want to be there anymore.
You walk through the empty castle, heading straight for the astronomy tower. You know Mattheo will be there without a doubt.
When you reach the top of the tower, the freezing air hits you like a ton of bricks but you see Mattheo leaning on the railing, staring out onto the grounds.
“Hi” you breathe out, just standing there.
Mattheo instantly turns around to face you, “hi.”
You walk up slowly, “it’s cold out here…”
“Weren’t you at the party?” he interrupts, asking you with furrowed eyebrows.
“I didn’t want to be there…not without you.”
He doesn’t respond but looks you up and down and nods.
“The truth is that I don’t even know what we fought about anymore. I just-” you hesitate before continuing, “I love you.”
A smile slowly creeps onto Mattheo’s face. You walk up to him until you’re just inches away from him, the heat of his body begging to touch you.
“You couldn’t even make it one New Year’s kiss without me, could you?” he smirks, wrapping his arms around you and resting his hands on your lower back.
He glances at your watch as your hand rests on his chest, “its almost midnight…” he coos.
“Oh?” you ask sarcastically, “what’s so special about midnight?”
“This…” he trails off as he connects his lips with yours, everything else in the world instantly disappearing.
You hear fireworks going off in the distance, likely from the Weasley twins. You laugh into the kiss before pulling away, “happy new year my love”
“Happy new year mi amor” he responds as he grabs your chin before connecting lips again, your tongues dancing together.
You had started the new year just how you wanted to…with the love of your life.
