Hysteria

Chapter 23

Y/n's POV:

It's now Monday and Blaise asked Luna if she would go on a date with him on sunday. They're supposed to be going to a restaurant in Hogsmeade - I am so happy for them!

I walked into Transfiguration and sat down in my seat. Why did Professor Mcgonagall just have to place me next to Scott. I rested my head in my hands as I stared blankly up at the front of the room.

Matheo walked into the room, causing my eyes to drift to him. I'm not just noticing this now but he always walks with such ease. His posture is perfect and his head is held up high. He doesn't walk fast but he doesn't walk slow either. And right now, in this dull lighting he looks stunning, but when is he not really. The lighting shows off the scar going down his right eye. Can't deny that he's one handsome being.

He finally makes it past me and sits down in his seat directly behind me. Then I feel staring coming from behind me. I blink a couple of times and look down at my thighs, the feeling of uneasiness washes over me.

I turn my head and look behind me to meet his stare. There's no emotion in his face as he stared at me. He sucks his bottom lip into his mouth, then releases it slowly, sliva coating his pink lips. My heart began to beat fast as he did so. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a stick of gum. As he unwraps it he doesn't break eye contact with me. Then he slipped the piece of gum into his mouth. He chewed on it slowly and leaned back into his chair. Is this some game?

He looked down at my lips then slowly back up into my eyes. Unconsciously My eyes roamed to his lips, now realizing it, I quickly looked back up at his eyes. Even though he wasn't showing the slightest bit of emotion, I could tell by his eyes that he was amused. He sunk a little further down into his seat as he put his hands into his pants pockets and adjusted his pants.

"Good morning class" Professor M yelled slightly.

She caught my attention and I quickly turned around.

Then I felt a hand grip my hair from the root, before I knew it my head was yanked backwards slightly, causing me to whimper.

"Shh don't be so loud, look at who's next to you" Matheo whispered in my ear.

My eyes travel to the person sitting besides me, Scott.

Oh god, he'll be sure to notice the situation any minute now!

"Matter of fact, he shouldn't be the only person you're worried about seeing us. We're in a class full of people." He whispers.

He's right, which is why he needs to stop.

But I don't want him to.

"What are you doing Matheo?" I whisper back, trying not to sound nervous.

"Christmas break is almost here Y/n" He whispers.

"Break lasts around two weeks, that's quite some time apart from you." He adds.

"Okay? So what?" I asked.

He was silent for a moment.

"Aren't you going to miss me?" He asked.

With his hand still gripping my hair, I turn my head to look at him.

"Why does it matter?" I asked.

He looked at me with this face.

It wasn't emotionless, nor was it a bad face.

"You didn't deny it," He whispered, as he stared into my eyes.
