I RANKED #1 IN MATTHEO RIDDLE OH MY GOSHHHH THANKS YALL SM!!

Maya
Mattheo and I hadn't spoken for a while, of course we sat by each other, but I didn't look at him nor did he look at me.

I missed looking at him, I missed him.

I still haven't forced myself to unlike him because I'm not sure I'm quite ready to move on yet.

——————

I decided I'd join Slughorns Potions class since I would be bored in my free period.

"Ah, Miss Esmeray. Welcome!" He greeted me.

"I'm not too late am I?" I said anxiously.

"No, no. There's a book for your in that bin over there." He pointed.

Everyone looked at me. I knew who they all were. I saw Pansy, Hermione, Harry, Ron, Lavender, Romilda, Draco, Blaise, Enzo, Daphne, and Adrian. Looks like it's a room full of just Gryffindor and Slytherins.

I took a seat at the only table that was available, I wasn't alone since Daphne sat there too, by herself. Pansy, she was sitting with her beloved, Hermione. I like Hermione, she's super nice, smart, and pretty.

While we were trying to brew up the potion, Daphne and I talked.

"I never told you and Pansy, but during third year, I sort of had a crush on Professor Lupin.." She smirked. "He's like twenty years older than you!" I chuckled.

"He is actually kinda hot.." I smirked at her.

The door opened and we all turned our heads to see who it was that and entered. "Mr Riddle..uh- welcome!" Slughorn said uneasy. Everyone knew Slughorn had his father, Tom Riddle, as a student when he stayed there.

"Take a seat by Miss Greengrass and Miss Esmeray." He pointed to us. I shot my head back down and started cutting whatever this was. It kept moving and bouncing away everytime I tried to cut it.

"You know who else is hot?" Daphne whispered. "Hm?" I quickly said. "Mattheo." She raised her eyebrows, my cheeks started to flush with pink. "He is.." I smirked.

As soon as I said that, he came by us. Fuck. He probably heard that. No he didn't. He did. He didn't. Aghhh!

I bit my bottom lip anxiously and looked up at Daphne once he stood beside me.

I decided to crush up what I had instead of cutting it.

"Mr Potter and Miss Esmeray, you've both gotten the potion done right. You tied." Slughorn said. "Now who wants the Felix Felicis since it was a tie?" He asked.

"You can have it." Harry and I both said at the same time. "No, really, take it." He insisted. "No, it's fine. I don't need any luck right now." I said softly giving him the little bottle in his hand.

"Are you sure-"

"Yes, Harry. Don't worry." I smiled, assuring him it was fine. I could actually use some luck, but I wasn't a selfish person and Harry was still one of my friends even though I probably wasn't his.

I was quite surprised Mattheo hadn't had the potion right because he's definitely smarter than me.

"T-Thanks." He said nervously.

"You may all hang around until it's time to be dismissed."

We went back to our tables and talked. "Lupin?? Seriously?" I tilted my head at her starting again. "Oh come on!" Daphne giggled. "Would you have shagged him if you had the chance??" I raised my eyebrow at her.
