It's been weeks. Draco hasn't came to see me. He hasn't even sent me any letters and I'm getting worried. Is he just busy? Has he forgotten about me? Does he not lo- no, no he does! He's probably just really busy.

To take my mind off things i decided to go for a walk..in the forest. I hadn't really ventured really far away from my hut but I need to clear my head of all things.

"I shouldn't be wondering this far, what if someone sees me. What if a death- no no no, I'm not gonna die today!" I say out loud. I sigh and continue to walk until I hear a branch snap. I stopped in my tracks. Some one must be here, were they following me? Did they hear what I said?

"Whose there? Whoever you are, come out and face me! I'm not scared of you!" I shout before getting my wand out of my pocket and holding it up.

"Hey." The person casually  said as they walked up to me.

"Stay back, I have a wand and I'm not afraid to use it!" I shout, pointing my wand at his face.

"Woah, dont to that!" He holds his hands up in a surrender motion. He didn't look scared but he looked shocked.

"Show me your arms!" I demanded as he gave me a confusing look.

"Uh- Why?" He asked laughing but I kept my face serious.

"Just roll up your sleeves." I demanded as he gave a small nodd as he rolled up his sleeves.

All clear.

"Okay, good. Your not a death eater." I mutter under my breath, hoping he wouldn't hear me. He raised his eyebrow at me.

"What's your name?" I asked, slowly lowering my wand but keeping it in my hand.

"Mattheo." He answered slowly.

"Surname?" I questioned him as he looked as if he didn't know what to say.

"R-Ri-Rivers." He stuttered as if he forgot his own name. It was strange.

"Sorry about all that." I sigh.

"Why were you asking me all that." He asked laughing.

"Long story short, I'm in hiding. I'm Y/n by the way, Y/n Potter." I smile as I shake his hand.

"Okay well, nice to meet you Y/n." He grins as I questioned myself.

"Hold on, I'm not that gullible. Who do you think I am?" I scoff as I just trusted a complete strange.

"I think you are Y/n Potter. Both parents dead with a brother who you only had found out about recently. You had also been raised by Sirius Black and has recently became a student at Hogwarts." He answered, smiling.

"You've done your research." I gasp. How could he know all that about me? "How can I trust you?" I ask, raising mg eyebrow.

"Get to know me." He shrugged his shoulders.

"Alright then, what's your story? Why are you walking around in a forest?" I laugh.

"Its not that interesting but I was raised by my father. He doesn't really care about me or what I do. Home is usually a bit..intense...so I come out here alot to escape it all." He answered. I didn't know what to say.

"Oh, um- sorry about that." I look down as I didn't really know what else to say.

"Don't be. I can go though, if you want to do your hiding alone." He sighs giving a sad expression.

"No its fine, you don't need to go. Plus, I'm going to be really bored out here by myself. I can also get to know you better and we both won't be lonley." I smile as he agreed and smiled back.

We started walking and talking.

"So, I havnt seen you at Hogwarts." I say as he looks down and clears his throat.

"Yeah, um- my father wouldn't let me go." He says quietly.

"Are you a pureblood?" I ask.

"Yes." He answers slowly. I hadn't heard of the River family before. Maybe they just weren't as high class as the others.

"So tell me, how did you get to be in this forest all by yourself?" He asks laughing.

"It's quite a long story." I say.

"I think there's enough time for a story. We don't have anything else to do." He scoffs as we both laugh.

"Okay, well I'll shorten the story for you so you don't get too bored. I was walking in a forest because I got lost and I got attacked by some death eaters. I found out that Voldemort wanted me dead more than Harry as he gave Harry a scar when he tried to kill him but I had nothing, not even a single scratch when he tried to kill me. I told Draco, who is my boyfriend,  and he helped my hide when I said I was going into hiding. He apparate me here and told me he would come see me and write my letters. It has been weeks and he hasn't write me anything and be hasnt even came to see me. Now I'm here." I rant as he gives me a shocked expression.

"Jeez, you've only been at that school for a few months and you've already been hexed." He laughs as I give him a playful nudge.

We keep talking about random things and laughing.

Draco's  Pov:

My Lord, the boy seems to be earning her trust." My father says as I sit there quietly. I was in a death eater meeting. I have to do this, for Y/n. I know what my next task is and I can't bare it. It's been hard enough not being able to see her, she must be so confused. She must have thought I've forgotten about her.

"Excellent news. Now Draco, I have a task for you." Voldemort speaks as I lift my head up to look at him.

"Y-yes, my Lord." I gulp as I know what he will say.

"Everything will go according to plan." He laughs.
