Ginny, neville, Mattheo and me make our way to the Bridge.
The bridge so many students had their first kisses on, the bridge people fought on, laughed on.
Now we were about to blow this bitch up.
It was actually kind of Sad.
"Are you sure about this-" Neville sounded unsure of the plan.

"We got this-" I reassure them all, we had put fire works at each pillar that holds the bridge.
Someone would have to throw a fire spell to blow them up.
It was simple.
"Why do I have to do it? I'm not being rude but how do I know that you aren't setting me up" he looks at Mattheo as he speaks.
It was Mattheo's idea for the fireworks.

"I'll do it" I volunteer and Mattheo looks at me like I'm stupid. Like he knew something I didn't?
Was Neville on to something? No I can't think that way.
"No, no your not" his voice was firm and I looked at him with curious eyes.
"I will" he spoke again, I couldn't help but notice the sad and uneasy smirk on his face.

Mattheo Riddle PoV
"I'll do it" she volunteered so easily, I actually wanted to slap her.
She would be putting herself at risk, I wasn't even sure that this was definitely going to work, it should, wood and fire don't mix well but you can never be sure.
Not 100%

She quickly looks at me, I couldn't help but ignore her eyes, they were full of questions.
Like she was questioning my loyalty to her.
To this plan and to Harry's army.
I could tell when I saw those eyes that she wasn't sure who I sided with.
I thought we were past this, I guess not and I can't blame her.

But it still hurt like hell.
"I will" my hand lets go of hers quickly, I didn't want to look at her.
Not while my eyes were glassy and my smirk was less then confident.
I swallow slightly as I look at the long bridge.
"I better get going" I laugh, the bridge was very narrow and long it would take me a few minutes to get to the end of it.
"Good luck" Ginny speaks before I set off, I simply nod at the girl.

"Mattheo-" her voice was soft, she sounded sorry.
She must of known that I picked up on her questioning eyes.
"I'll see you in a minute" I smile and she tries to go after me, I see Ginny pull her back.
Shit.
What the fuck is happening right now.

I get to the end, I wait.
I wait for the death eaters to turn up and try kill me.
Fantastic.
Really how I want to be spending my Friday evening.
I shuffle slightly when I hear them in the distance.
I step backwards in Anticipation.
I watch as some of them fry, they ran straight into the force felid.

I start to chuckle, I knew this barrier thing wouldn't last but I might as well gloat while it is.
"You alright boys?" I call out to the snatchers I recognised.
"Riddle- you Traitorous-" he's about to go on about me being a traitor and blah blah blahhh.
But I cut him off "yeah yeah I get it, you guys hate me and all that but I would say I'm in the better position considering I didn't just fry" I laugh at my own joke.

I watch as they get more agitated.
That's when I notice small parts of fire dropping from the sky.
Fuck me-
It was down, the barrier was down.
I step back and they soon notice too.
They all charge towards me at high speed.
"Shit! Can't we just talk this out??!!" I start to run, dodging the spells that they throw at me in the process.

I quickly throw a spell that should blow up all the fireworks underneath the bridge.
I don't hear any struggling from the army behind me.
It didn't work..
Fuck.
I throw another and that's when I hear people screaming and grunting.
Telling the people in front of them to hurry up.

Thank god.
I see the end of the bridge, Y/n was there.
She was screaming.
Screaming at me, I couldn't tell what she was saying, the noise was too loud from the fireworks and then screams.
I feel the bridge catching up to me, collapsing underneath my feet , I have to go.
