All because of a Murder (Mattheo Riddle+ Y/n)

Roommate

I woke up in the hospital wing, and I had no idea what was happening. It kind of hurt my eyes to see the light. After realizing where I was and what was going on, I remembered what had happened at the quidditch game. I sat up to catch my breath, and I saw something out of the corner of my eye. When I looked over, Theo was sitting there asleep in the chair.

"He hasn't left," Madam Pomfrey.

Confused, I asked"What?" 

"He brought you in from the quidditch and refused to leave. Your friends were here for a while, but they decided to go to class unlike someone," she said glaring at Mattheo. "Your boyfriend really likes you."

"Oh, he's not my boyfriend," I said with a nervous giggle.

"You better tell him that," she said as she walked out. 

I was reading my book when Theo woke up. 

"You're awake!" he said.

"You finally are too," I laughed. 

"How long have you been awake for?" he asked.

I don't know. I woke up about 20 minutes ago, I think. How long was I out for?" I asked.

"Well, you got knocked out on Saturday, and it's Wednesday. So, for about 3 1/2 days,"

"You haven't gone to class for 3 days?!" 

"How did you know that?" he asked.

"Madam Pomfrey told me," 

"Well, I didn't want to leave you alone, and neither did your friends. I told them to go ahead and go to class. They seemed pretty happy that I was staying if you know what I mean. Well all of them except for that one friend that hates me," he laughed.

"You skipped school for me? You're going soft on me," 

"Shut up," he chuckled.

Just then, Dumbledore walked into the infirmary. "So, Mr. Riddle. I see the rumors about you not going to class are true. Although I must admit, it's for a very kind reason. I have an offer for both of you."

"What is it, sir?" I asked.

"Even though Mr. Riddle saved you from hitting the ground, you still are going to have a lot of problems. We thought that since he has refused to leave your side, Ms. Granger, that he could stay with you, instead of you staying in the hospital wing. We have a room and everything already ready for you!" Dumbledore stated.

"Wait, you want him to stay in a room with me?!" I was shocked.

"Will that be a problem? I made sure it was okay with both of your parents!" Dumbledore told us.

"You talked with my father?!" Theo seemed like he was freaking out.

"He's completely fine with it," Dumbledore said, calmly.

Dumbledore escorted us to the room that we would both be staying in. Mattheo had to help me get up and walk because everything was super dizzy. When we got to a certain portrait, we stopped. 

"This is the entrance to your guy's room. The password is "Future"." Dumbledore said. "I would give you a tour, but I think you are full-on capable, right?"

"Yes, sir," I replied.

"Yeah," Mattheo said. 

When we walked into the room, we realized it wasn't just A room. It was a bunch of rooms. There was a living room, 2 bathrooms, and 2 bedrooms. All of our stuff was sitting in the living room. One of the colors of the bedroom was black, while the other was green.

"Which room would you like?" I asked.

"I don't care. Lady's first,"  Theo said with a smile.

"You choose! You're already stuck having to take care of me," I said, not looking him in the eye.

He put his hands on my cheek and gently moved my head to make me look at him. "I didn't get stuck having to take care of you! I had a choice, and I don't regret the choice I made!"

Trying to change the subject, I replied with, "Thanks, but who's taking which room?"

"I'll take the black and you can take the Slytherin green. Sound good?"

"Yeah!" 

"Oh, I almost forgot to tell you! We get 2 weeks off of school to help you recover," he said with a chuckle.

"2 weeks?! I don't even need 1 week," I said.

"Well, we get automatic A's and don't even have to show up, so I'm not going to protest or complain," 

"True, true," 

"The Slytherin-colored themed room is pretty cool," Theo said, with a nod.

"I agree!  I'm gonna go read in the living if you want to join," I said, adding a wink to lighten the mood.

"Yeah, sure," He replied.

I went into my room and saw Romeo and Juliet first. 

'It won't hurt to re-read it,' I thought to myself.

When I got to the living room, Theo was already there reading.

"What did you decide to read?" I asked. He moved the book, so I could see the title. He didn't look up from his book though.

"You're reading Romeo and Juliet?!" I said in disbelief.

"Yeah, why?" he asked, confused.

I held up my book.  "I'm reading Romeo and Juliet!"

We both laughed. "What can I say? I told you it was one of my favorites," he said, still laughing. "There's no point in both of us reading the same book."

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"We're going to be here together for the next 2 weeks. We could make it like a little project, I guess we could call it. How about we read Romeo and Juliet together?" he said.

"Sure. Sounds kinda fun!" I exclaimed. I laid in his lap, and he stayed sitting up. That's how we spent the rest of the night.

The next morning, Mattheo asked something that I hadn't even thought of.

"Okay, hear me out!"

"Oh, God!" I groaned

"What if we threw a party! We have a big enough place for it," he said, gesturing at our new "room".

"That's actually not a bad idea!" 

"Really?! Awesome, I'll invite everybody tonight. All you have to do is invite your friends,"  he said.

"Alright!" I smiled.

A/n: I tried to make this chapter longer. How do you guys like the length of the chapters? Do you like them long, short, or mixture?
