MATTHEO


I woke up and saw that it was seven in the morning, strangely I had slept a few more hours. I got up and went to take a shower trying not to wake Tom.


I went into the shower and the hot water hit my body, that's what I needed.I put one hand on the wall and with the other I tried to wipe the water off my face, I couldn't stop thinking about what I saw yesterday .Eleanor hugged Draco and she also went to celebrate the victory with him. She promised she would stay close to me and instead it didn't happen. When I saw her in the stands, I felt my heart full of joy.Her smile gave me strength, but I had to stop feeling myself so on my way there was no room for those feelings.


I got out of the shower and walked to the bed while I was drying my hair with a towel, but one detail caught my eye. I walked up to my desk and I found a note that said "For Mattheo" who could have written to me?


I opened it and started reading


Come to the Astronomy Tower at nine o'clock                                                            XX


Suddenly I thought it was Bellatrix who had been sent on my father's behalf, but I deleted that thought because it was not her style. If she wanted to see me, she would have dematerialized herself in the room.I was very curious but at the same time I did not want to go, but something told me that I had to go. I started to prepare slowly since there was still half an hour left.


Once I was ready, I watched Tom still sleeping, so I left the room. I climbed the great steps and I arrived on the Tower, but I didn't see anyone.I thought it was a joke so I approached to look at the view when I felt a presence behind me.I turned and I could not believe my eyes, Eleanor stood before me with a cake in her hand that smiled at me


"Happy birthday Mattheo" she said and I stayed silent "Don't you say anything?" she asked me


"I didn't expect it"


"I know" she smiled


That damn smile


"Come and turn off the candaline, come on."


I approached her and I was inches from her face


"Make a wish" she said, I looked at her wanting tremendously for time to stop to stay like this forever, happy, smiling and with our eyes immersed in each other.I blew out the candles


"How did you manage to do all this?" I asked her


"I got a little help" she laughed


"And by whom?"


"From Tom"


"Tom?" I laughed


"Yes, your brother. He put the note on the desk and he asked the cooks at the school to make a cake for sunday morning"
