You turn around and there he was.
mattheo riddle, your childhood and present best friend, you trusted him with your life, you loved him since you were 7 years old, crushed on him since you were 14. To everyone who saw him or listened to other people opinions on him they thought he was cold and psychotic by the many things he did. But to you he was different. He would never hurt you in any way. He sort of protected you but would allow anyone know he fully cared but you understand why.
When it was your first year at hogwarts you were nervous because you thought you wouldn't be able to make friends as easy as your parent told you it would be. On the other hand Mattheo went in with confidence, not caring what his father had said to him that day, telling him he had to stay distant from people. To not get attached to anyone.
You felt insecure because you had thought people would only be friends with you because of your family name. It was never like that. You found your small group in 3rd year. Jenny, Draco, Pansy and Blaise and later on Mattheo. Your group was often called 'The Slytherin Royals' you found that quite amusing.
Apparently you and Mattheo are known as the prince and princess of Slytherin. Mattheo thought it was beyond pathetic to be labelled as that.
There was also the time were you and mattheo shared your first kiss together when you were 10. You ridiculously thought you was going to be pregnant by it and freaked out and cried to your mother that she was going to be a grandmother so soon. Her and your father thought it was very amusing, whereas you and theo did not. You finally understand that, that was not how you get pregnant. How foolish of little Y/N.
"hi theo, god have i missed your beautiful face." you squeal as you drop my bag to give him a hug. god he smells so good, peppermint and smoke,
he squeezes you with his arms around your waist and his head nuzzled into your neck, "i've missed you too doll face, how you been?" he lets go and he grabs your bag. By this time jenny has made her way inside hogwarts to get to the great hall.
Mattheo takes your hand and you both walk in. " oh i've been just fine, oh and your father sent me a letter telling me that we have a dinner, you me and him, to go to, to catch up on some things, he didn't really say what but who knows your father really is a man of wonders," you laugh softly.
theo chuckles at the comment, "yes i suppose he is, i'm glad your okay and stuff. Can i ask you a question?"
You look at his serious face confused. " of course go ahead, i don't bite, unless you want me too," you smirk at him as he rolls his eyes playfully.
"okay so i was wondering if i could just accompany you at the party tonight, you know make sure you don't get too drunk and stuff."
"oh theo, i don't need chaperoning but of course you can accompany me at the party." You giggle at his caring manor.
he smiles from ear to ear and grips your hand tighter. "oh good i'm glad you said yes, now come on let's get to dinner."
"oh yes, dinner, i'm absolutely starving." You walk on a bit faster then him which causes him to stumble his way with you.

after the sorting ceremony of the first years dumbledor announces the feast and we all get stuck in.
"so Y/N where were you and mattheo moments ago?" Jenny questions smirking and wiggles her eyebrows.
"Jenny what the fuck is wrong with you, we were just catching up on some stuff, stop thinking we did other things." theo said looking very aggravated.
"now, now theo let's not get upset, she's obviously just curious to why were weren't here." you fake smile at jenny whilst she carries on eating her mashed potatoes.
looking across the table to where pansy is you see her being awfully quite for her loud mouth, "say pansy, cat got your tongue?" You grin widely in amusement.
pansy looked up with fearful look. "i just don't want to fall out with you Y/N, you scare me." she truthfully spoke.
what she said took me by surprise because she's never said anything like that before. "well don't be scared i was just warning you before because this year is my year to live freely because my freedom is lost, but i'm not going into detail because that is very
unnecessary of me to do so," you said whilst finishing what was on my plate.
pansy sighs in relief. "okay, for a moment i thought i was having to go back to madam pomfrey for the 3rd time."
You smirk at her standing up and leaning over the table to her, "well watch what you say then sweet cheeks," then you kissed her cheek and excuse yourself and leave for the dungeons.
