leaving something out.

Aurora was still fast asleep when Mattheo was coming to smoke. He walked upstairs until he was at the top of the astronomy tower, where Aurora was sleeping.

Mattheo lights up his cigarette and looks in front of him. Cigarettes, an empty bottle of firewhisky, and a sleeping Aurora. Walking closer to her, looking at her knees and back at her closed eyes.

"Hey sleepyhead, wake up," he said, shaking Aurora a bit to wake her up. Aurora stirred a little and opened her eyes slowly. "Hmm, what?" Aurora mumbled trying to stand up but tripping over her own feet. Mattheo grabs her waist before she can fall to the ground. "Sit down, sweetheart,"

He helps Aurora to the ground so she could sit. He sat down next to her and looked into her eyes, putting a string of her hair behind her ear. "What happened?" Mattheo questioned her as he still continued to hold eye contact.

Aurora's eyes began to water and she turned her head away from him. "I don't wanna talk about it,". Mattheo tried to comfort her. "You don't have to tell me, it's okay,"

She laid her head on his shoulder and he just held her. "Let's go to your dorm Rory," he spoke, standing up. He grabbed her hand and pulled her up from the ground. She winced from the pain in her knees.

They walked inside to the common room, then they walked on to Aurora's dorm. Nobody was there except for Aurora and Mattheo. Pansy and Daphne were still with the boys.

Aurora walked to the bathroom and Mattheo followed her. She sat on the counter and Mattheo laid his hands on her thighs and pushed them open so he could stand in between. He takes a washcloth and makes it wet with water.

"This is probably gonna hurt a bit, Rory," He said, pushing the washcloth down on her knees before she could protest. Aurora shut her eyes tightly, mumbling a stop.

"Hmm, almost done," He smirked at her while finishing cleaning her knees. The boy laid down the washcloth and looked into Aurora's eyes, she stared up at him looking with wide eyes.

Mattheo gripped one hand on her thigh and the other one grabbed her jaw with a force. He smashed his lips on hers, Aurora pushed him away and looked him in his eyes. She started to giggle and pulled him back into another kiss, this one even more forceful.

Aurora and Mattheo looked into each other's eyes, bursting out into laughter. He hooks his arms around her waist whilst she hooks her arms around his neck. Mattheo lifts her up and walks out of the bathroom. He lays Aurora on her bed, "You need to sleep, Rory," He smiles at her.

"Hmm," Aurora mumbles into her pillow, already half asleep. Mattheo waits until she is asleep before walking out of her dorm, going to his own dorm. Before he gets the chance to open the door, he swings open. Pansy and Daphne walk out of the room.

"Goodnight, Mattheo," they say at the same time. "Goodnight," He says back as he walks into the room. Blaise is laying on his bed and Theodore is in the bathroom

"Hey Mattheo," Blaise says. "Hello Blaise, how are you?" Mattheo smirks at him. "I'm good Mattheo, where were you tonight? You missed all of the fun,"

"I was smoking in the Astronomy Tower dumbass," He chuckled. Theodore walks out of the bathroom and smiles at the other two boys in the room.

Mattheo walks towards the bathroom and brushes his teeth. He walks out of the bathroom and before stepping into his bed he turns to the boys to say goodnight.
