Mattheo's pov

Whilst majority of students left the room, i noticed the only reason why i'm in this place had stuck back in the classroom...Y/n.
I held back for a moment at the door realising what my father would want me to do. So after some thought, i stood at the crack of the half closed door and leant against the wall beside it incase anyone came along the corridor, they wouldn't think too weirdly of it.

"All honesty...what does this mean?"
Y/n spoke, her shaky voice full of confusion.
"Well miss Taylor, i have never seen anything like this. Even the most known wizards have fears, but this...this"
Professor Lupin began, pacing as he mentioned the last word. Y/n stood frozen. Her eyes focusing on the wardrobe not fantasising about trailing them else where.
"Y/n...why don't you have a rest over the weekend and we can take another look next week, hm? Could be to do with an over busy mind set"
He added, walking over to the clueless girl.
"I-i guess so...i just really don't understand"
She breathed, finally taking her eyes off of the wooden box and onto her instructor, few tears escaping her eyes.
At this point i didn't know what to do. I don't know why this made her so upset...i would be so happy that i have another thing to brag about. But I know what it's like to be lost with words; Longing answers; not understanding yourself.
So although i don't have a lot of time to do my 'task' , a day to leave her be can't hurt. Last thing she needs is some random boy pestering her right now.

Y/n's pov

Time skip >>>> breakfast

"Morning Y/n!"
Pansy shouted down the great hall as i entered. Embarrassing. Just fucking embarrassing.
I quickly sped down the isle to my seat at the Slytherin bench as hundreds of eyes watched me intensely.
"Pansy!!!"
I shout whispered through gritted teeth.
"So, what was yesterdays class all about?"
Blaise mentioned, pointing at me with his fork which was pierced through a piece of bacon as i got comfortable at the table.
"Fuck knows...guess i'm just special"
Draco dramatically groaned at my words, wishing he was the one who had something to brag about. Let's be real, most people would.
"Oh my gosh!!! Y/n!! have you seen the new boy!! He's literally perfection!"
Astoria said. Taking a seat next to me at the same time as pulling my waist round to face her. When we were younger, Astoria and i were close...we used to dream about what our 'prince charming' was like. I guess she found me a match.
"No Astoria, i haven't"
rolling my eyes in response, i spun back around and took a sip of the water one of my friends must have already poured for me.
"Course you have! He's all over you, annoying really"
Draco spat tutting the last part.
"You mean Mattheo? Yeah he's uhh...cute"
What? You'd be blind to say he wasn't. He's just so...perfect.
"Hmm, So you think he's cute! Honestly who doesn't though"
Astoria spoke. Resting her cheek on her hand with her elbow balancing on the table.
"What about your boyfriend"
Blaise added. We all know he's had a thing for her for years. She's such a whore! Why would he like her.
"Oh...yeah...but Mattheo."
She winked continuing to day dream about the boy.
I sighed in response not knowing why it got to me so much.
I sat up from the table and wondered down the great hall again to exit. No one from my table really noticed, they were busy trying to get Astoria to leave. 

As i flung the heavy wooden door open, there he stood. The dreamy brunette boy who had been supposedly 'all over me'.  We stood facing each other intensely before i spoke breaking the silence.
"Hey"
"hi"
he smiled, pushing his strong hands against the door after seeing i was clearly struggling to hold it open myself.
"Thanks"
I muttered, my cheeks flushing red with embarrassment.
Mattheo nodded a laughed, pushing his fingers up so they were holding the door open allowing me to go underneath his arm and pass him.
I began to walk by shaking my head whilst repeating the same words over and over...
really y/n...you couldn't have made that any less awkward.
"Hey uhh...y/n"
I heard his soft yet firm voice quote.
I immediately spun around raising my eye brows as my lips curled in letting out a 'hmm' sound. 
"Wanna do the project together?"
He smiled. My cheeks glowing hot pink as a comforting feeling circled my stomach.
"Potions class project?"
I replied. To be honest i wasn't listening for most of the lesson i didn't even hear a project mentioned.
"Yeah...i could use the help"
He confidently remarked, now leaning against the door.
"Fine, it's Mattheo right?"
He nodded with a smile to my question. We both knew i was aware that was his name. I really don't know why i said that.
"Meet me at my dorm later"
He spoke whilst letting the door go from his grasp and entering the hall.
