"What, so I'm just going to hide in your room forever?"

"Yes." He replies with a snarky smirk across his face.

"I should meet your father." I suggest.

"Why? It didn't go very well last time did it?" He sits down on the bed, crosses his legs and turns his body to face me.

I do the same and face him.

"Well, I think me and him should make up." I say raising my eyebrows.

"Don't say it-"

"Or make out." I say with a smirk and he holds his forehead and sighs.

"Oh Merlin."

"He's kinda hot."

"Shut the fuck up."

"And sexy."

"I said, shut the fuck up." He says through gritted teeth.

"His nose is kind of nice too." I say.

"What nose?" Mattheo replies and we both start bursting out in laughter.

"Anyways, I seriously can't be staying here. They're going to find me eventually!"

Besides, I needed to talk to his father for my plan to work.

"What plan?" He looks at me confused and I realise what he's doing.

"Mattheo you can't use legilimency on me."

"I always use it on you." He says tapping the side of my head.

"WHAT!?" I exclaim in shock. "All the time!?"

"Well, most of the time."

"Fuck you."

"So, what are you planning?"

"It's nothing." I say, trying to block anymore thoughts about my plan.

He can't find out.

"Y/n! No you can't!" He exclaims, holding my face.

Shit. He knows.

"Mattheo, it's the only way."

"What? Becoming a death eater won't give you a better chance of killing my father." He says sternly. "Listen to me, whatever you're planning, it won't work."

"I just need to gain his trust. I'm strong Mattheo. I can do it."

"Please, you'll die!"

"I've beaten you in knife fights multiple times, I think I can defend myself."

"What? No you haven't and Voldemort is ten times more deadly. I went easy on you!"

"Why?"

"Why what?" He asks.

"Why did you go easy on me?"

"Because you're a girl." He says, with a huge smirk on his face.

For Merlin's sake. He's just trying to get a reaction out of me.

"No because you love me and you don't want to hurt me! That's so cute and adorable Matty boo!" I coo, giving him a peck on the lips but he pushes me back on the bed.

"I am not adorable." He hovers over me and gazes into my eyes.

"Ok, fine. You're not."

His face saddens and I let out a laugh.

"So you do want to be called adorable?" I coo in a baby voice and he slaps me across the face.

"Am I going easy on you now?" He spits.
