This Was A Mistake | Mattheo Riddle X Reader

chapter 46

sorry i took so long to update

Maya
Mattheo had been showing up to the school way more to see me and how I'm doing so far.

The door slammed open and Mattheo seemed angry.

"You can't have this baby, Maya." He huffed.

"What? Why not??" I closed my book and stood up from my bed.

"Because. I can't do this. I can't—be a dad! I don't fucking know how to!" He spat.

"You think I know how to be a mum? Stop thinking of just yourself!" I scoffed.

"I wouldn't be a good father! I'm such a—I'm a shitty person! I have the patience of a water balloon—and I- I just can't. I'm not cut out for this." He pounded his fist into the wall, not hard enough to break it.

"Mattheo. Mattheo, it's okay! No you're not! You've changed so much. In like—the past two years. You're not what u are saying at all. In my eyes, you're not the guy I met after Christmas break. You are so different, and you changed, for me. For this baby." I held his hands.

We had a very touching, wholesome moment. We talked about everything. How exactly we would do this.

We both decided to see Luna as our nurse for this baby, she knew everything about it and kindly agreed to helping us. I was very grateful.

I spoke to Professor McGonagall about stopping my classes early because of my baby that only she knew about it. She was so understanding and allowed me to.

I didn't want anyone knowing I was pregnant, I hate that look on myself. I'm not embarrassed that it's Mattheos or anything, I just don't want to walk around school looking like this.

"It's a girl." She said kindly.

My eyes and Mattheos lit up. It's a girl!

Luna cleaned up my stomach and Mattheo passionately crashed his lips onto mine. This was so exciting.

"Would you like to have a C-section or an epidural?" She asked me. "Oh...I haven't thought about that." I said, growing worried. "You have plenty of time to decide. It's alright." She smiled dearly.

"We'll figure it out together, angel." He held my hand and assured me. "Oh shit. We still need a name for her." A grin formed on my face.

I was so happy. The only thing holding me down was the war. That was the only thing I was truly worried about. What if she gets hurt? What if Mattheo does? Or my friends? I don't know what I'd ever do.

Months later

Mattheo
She was gone. That was it.

The last thing she ever said to me, was what to name our daughter. Amara.

Amara meant many things. Bitter, grace, deathless, even immortal. It was perfect.

Amara looked exactly like Maya, she just had my hair and nose.

Her water broke a few hours before the war and the only option was to do a C-section.

Voldemort cast a Imperio spell on me and only made matters worse, it seemed as if I killed her. It was an accident. I wish it had been me and not her.

I'm glad he's dead. Harry Potter and I were the ones to end it with him. Longbottom killed that stupid snake of his, Nagini.

Today, I had to give a speech at Maya's memorial. It took me one too many tries to be able to say this without crying. Every time, it didn't work. I'm just gonna have to put up with it.
