Falling for a Riddle ( Mattheo Riddle ff - fanfiction)

Black

" In here my lord " she heard a voice say as the door of her room creaked open. She adjusted her eyes to the light as a man with pale skin and slits for a nose walked in.

He got a good look at her before turning towards her father, " she will do quite nicely Dolohov. But her powers ?" he asked in his raspy voice. His mere presence triggered her senses as small flames sparked from the tips of her fingers.

Her father nodded, " the creature still possesses them my lord " her father confirmed looking towards her. The dark lord went closer to her. 

" Demonstrate " he ordered. 

" I will not. I will die before I join you " Amelia answered looking up at him. She noticed her fathers scowl and the dark lords hatred.

" Crucio "

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Once again Amelia woke up feeling startled. Sweat trickling down her forehead as she attempted to make sense of the situation. She had reoccurring dreams and even Draco complained to see dreams of his father. Maybe they were getting close, but in the past 2 months no announcements were made and the ministry was being suspiciously quiet about the whole situation. 

Amelia woke up with a start as she felt someone hit her door. She opened it slightly to reveal Pansy and Daphne standing outside with a look of giddy excitement, " good morning sleepy head. It's Hogsmeade day, were gonna buy dresses today for the ball. It is in 3 months " Pansy said. Amelia looked shocked and shook her head in a sense to wake up, " oh Merlin, I forgot. Pansy just give me a minute and I'll be there " 

Amelia changed in to her winter clothes as quickly as she could and walked down to see a upset looking Pansy. Pansy's hands are crossed across her chest while her bottom lip is pushed out, her expression shows that she may not have had the best of mornings. 

Amelia approaches with caution, " Pansy what's wrong ?" she asks wrapping a comforting hand around her. Daphne gives a sad look before turning to Amelia, " Pansy asked Draco to go to the end of the year ball just now and he said no. Apparently he likes someone else. He said it before but this time he was a bit more stern about it " Pansy started wailing hiding her face in her hands. Amelia patted her back softly as she was reminded of the night she spent with Draco only 2 days ago

Flashback

" Draco ? what are you doing still up ?" Amelia asked walking down the stairs of the girls dormitories. She met the blonde's blood shot red eyes with dark rims under it. He had obviously not slept in days. He gave out a psychotic laugh. He ran his hands through his hair, slightly pulling it each second his laugh got louder. 

He finally looked at Amelia, " we're idiots you know Amelia ? the dreams, they get clearer don't they ? their close. And won't leave. They'll come for us, kill us and then gather the others unless we stop them. You'll do something won't you ? won't you ?" Draco said repeatedly shaking Amelia's shoulders while enveloping his hands over her bruises making her hiss in pain. She lightly touched the boys hand making him calm but he lashed away from her. He gave a horrified look at her as he screamed, " you tried to hurt me- like, like my father, stay- stay back " he said reaching for his wand. Amelia in a fit of pure confusion rose her hands from below making tendrils of vines emerge from the ground. They snaked around Draco's hands and and ankles as he struggled to remove himself from it's grasp. He fell on his knees as tears streamed down his pale face as he looked up at Amelia, " help me Amelia, help us " he said. Amelia felt her knees go weak. She fell to the ground next to him and held him. She doesn't notice or feel the tears fall down her own face as she whispers words of reassurance to Draco.
