~~~~~~Mattheo POV~~~~~~~
That afternoon the group met up at the bleachers of the empty quidditch field.
Y/n and I were both fine now.
The whole group was there, including Theo this time. He was more comfortable around, including Y/n, which signals that the two of them had made up. If I'm being honest it annoyed me a little bit. The two of them laughed over something Theo had said. I clenched my jaw at the picture of them, being so close all of a sudden. I watched as Theo whispered something into her ear and she smiled. I distracted myself, reaching into my pocket and pulling out a cigarette.
"Woah! Hey!" They all began to ramble as soon as they saw what I was holding.
"Where the hell did you get that?" Blaise asked.
"I found them." I explained, one hanging from my mouth as I ravaged through my jacket pockets for a light.
"And you're just gonna smoke it?" Pans asked, concern in her voice.
"Yep." I said simply, with a shrug as I pulled my lighter out of my pocket.
"What could go wrong?" Y/n said sarcastically.
"You worried?" I smirked at her.
"No." She leant back and crossed her arms. 
"Try some then." I said holding the cigarette out her way.
"Sure." She said surprisingly. She reached out to take it from me. Her hand being smacked down by both Draco and Pansy. She sighed in annoyance at her friends. Her tongue in her cheek. I chuckled at her reaction.
"Since when do you smoke anyway?" Theo changed the subject.
"Since ever." I said letting out a breath of smoke with ease.
"You're just full of surprises, aren't you Riddle." Y/n said.
"You have no idea." I winked at her. I heard Theo scoff a little.
"Stop flirting!" Pans said in disgust.
"Yeah, it's gross!" Blaise backed her up.
"Oh god! That's coming from them." Y/n said and I laughed. Theo sighed.

               ~~~~~~~Y/n POV~~~~~~~
We saw some quidditch players, with red uniforms, and all of their broom sticks.
"They're having practice." Blaise clarified.
"No shit." Theo said.
"Ugh. Griffindors." Draco rolled his eyes.
"HEY, they're not all bad." I said, hinting that I was still partly a Griffindor myself. Draco still not picking up my signals added,
"Yes they are. Everyone of those losers are annoying and not a single person can change my mind."
The others began to snicker.
I glared at him. How stupid can he be?
He caught my glare and realised. His eyes widened.
"Oh RIGHT!" He exclaimed.
"Be very careful of what you say next, bro." I threatened jokingly.
The whole group laughed and we stood up to leave, attempting to avoid the Griffindors.

We walked through the empty halls of the school as a group, Draco, Blaise and Pansy leading the group, Theo, Mattheo and I walking not too far behind them. In the corner of my eye I saw Hermione Granger coming our way. She was a cool girl from what I had gathered, but- and I mean no offence by this- she's also a bit of a snitch. I took the cigarette that was hanging of Mattheo's lip and dropped it, before standing on it.
"Hey what the hell?!" Mattheo began, releasing smoke from his mouth as he spoke. I looked around, Hermione was approaching the group.
On instinct I wrapped my arms around Mattheo's neck and connected my lips with his. His hands grabbing my waist because of the impact. The kiss shut him up immediately, and stopped the smoke from escaping his lips. I could feel everyone's eyes on us. I heard Hermione quickly walk right past us, probably very uncomfortable with this unexpected PDA. As soon as she had passed I broke away from him. All of my friends stared in shock.

"What the hell was that?" Mattheo asked, a little stunned, releasing all of the smoke at last. 
"Granger." I shrugged pointing in the direction that she had left.
"And?" Theo asked with a hint of irritation.
"Well, she could've seen you smoking." I said to Mattheo.
"Ok... but why did you kiss him? You could've just used your hand." Blaise said, dragging out each word.
"That would've been suspicious, and PDA makes people very uncomfortable." I explained innocently.
"Yes! Yes it does!" Draco hissed pretending to gag afterwards.
I laughed at my friends reactions.
"Why are you guys being so weird about this?" I chuckled.
"Yeah, it's not the first time you've seen us kiss." Mattheo smirked as I shoved his shoulder lightly.
"What?!" Theo said.
"Nothing." I laughed. "Can we just go now please?" I asked.
The group nodded and we began to walk, Pansy and i now in the front, the four boys walking behind us, not too far away, but not close enough that we could hear each other's conversations.
"Oh my gooooooooood!!" Pansy whisper-screamed.
"What?" I asked.
"You kissed him!!!" She whispered.
"Ugh, Pansy not this again." I rolled my eyes at her.
"I'm just saying. It would be so perfect!"
"What do you mean? He basically hates me." I told her. Pansy erupted into laughter at this comment. I looked at her, confused.
She saw the puzzled look on my face and stopped laughing.
"Holy shit! You actually believe that?!" She said.
"Well... yeah." I said.
"Babe you are both so unbelievably oblivious.
I love you, I really do. But sometimes you can be so stupid, it's amazing." She said.
"Ok pans, hun, imma need you to calm down and tell me what you mean." I said.
"You like him. He likes you. Do I need to spell it out for you or something?"
"Have you had something to drink?" I narrowed my eyes. She rolled hers.
"Believe what you want. But just know, it's gonna happen. If one of you don't make a move, I'll make you." She told me before drifting off and joining the boys. Bringing our discussion to an end, and leaving me with approximately one million questions running through my mind.
