Someone I used to know

Why are you doing this? (Mattheo's POV)

TW: Torture and mention of blood

After potions class with Y/N, I said goodbye to her. She had another class, while I had a free period. I had plans to go have some fun with Y/N this afternoon. She had a bad nightmare and a panic attack today, so she deserves to have some fun and let loose. The plans I had, were going on a broomride over the lake and then having some drinks at the Three Broomsticks. So, in my free period, I travelled down to the Three Broomsticks to make sure they would have some of her favourite snacks for with the drinks. I also wanted to make one of the tables look all romantic for us, but I realised I couldn't, because we would be in a very public place and we couldn't be seen as a couple. My father already wouldn't be happy if he found out we were out as friends, but being a couple would make it even worse. 

After I was done at the Three Broomsticks, I hurried back to Hogwarts, because I still had one class. I arrived a little bit late, but it was Herbology class by professor Sprout. She never gets mad if you get late, so I just walked in, apologized and sat down next to Theo. 'Where were you?' He asked me. 'In Hogsmeade. I needed to prepare some things.' 'For what?' 'I'm going out with Y/N this afternoon. She had a bad night and a panic attack this morning, so she could use some fun.' 'Was it a bad panic attack?' 'Yes, she couldn't breath, had shaky hands and her heart was racing like crazy. Luckily I remembered how you helped me all those times, so I used those tricks to help her get out of it. So, thanks mate.' 'Ofcourse. If I can help with anything, just let me know okay?' 'Will do, Theo.' 

Class was really boring, so after an hour I told Theo I still had to get some stuff ready for Y/N and asked professor Sprout, that I didn't feel great and if it would be okay, if I left a little early. She somehow believed my obvious lie and let me leave. I said bye to Theo and got out of the room. I quickly went to my dormroom, changed out of my robes and into some jeans and a black T-shirt. I then went outside to the broomshed to get Y/N and mines brooms ready for the broomride. I just opened the shed when I heard something behind me. I turned around, but didn't see anything. I slowly grabbed my wand and walked around the shed. There was nothing there, so I walked back to the front of the shed. I went into the shed, grabbed Y/N and mines brooms and walked back out. I closed the door and out of nowhere everything went dark. 

When I woke up, I wasn't at Hogwarts anymore. I was back home. I was in the basement of my home and I was tied to a very uncomfortable chair. My head was hurting so much and I felt some blood trickling down the side of my face. I don't remember how I got here or what happened, but I sure as hell knew who got me here. And that person just so walked into the room. It was my father. 'Hello, son.' He said. 'What the hell am I doing here?!' I asked him. 'Well, your little girlfriend didn't listen to me. I told her time and time again, that she should stay away from you, but she just couldn't. So, I had to change the consequences, because apparently she doesn't care about getting hurt. However, I'm sure she'll care if you get hurt. Or maybe not, I guess. Because, why else would she come back from France, if she knew it would put you in danger. I guess she doesn't love you as much as you think she does.' 'DON'T YOU DARE TALK ABOUT HER!' 'Oooohhh... getting protective now, boy. A little too late now, don't you think.' 'Why are you doing this to us? I did everything for you! Why can't you just let us be together?! What did she ever do to you, that you have to keep on hurting her and with that me?!' 'She's a distraction to you. And I can't let anything distract you from becoming my right hand and one of the greatest wizards alive, after me ofcourse.' 'Do you really not see, that hurting her and keeping her away from me, is distracting me more than just being with her.' 'THAT DISGRACE OF A WITCH ISN'T GOOD FOR YOU, BOY! She distracted you when you were younger and now she's doing it all again. She has corrupted your mind by tricking you into "loving" her. It's making you weak!' 'SHE ISN'T THE ONE MAKING ME WEAK! MY LOVE FOR HER IS MAKING ME STRONGER!' 'That's what she wants you to think. Don't you remember how strong you got, when she wasn't here. When she was in her precious Beauxbatons school and you were here at home and you weren't thinking about her?!' 'I WASN'T THINKING ABOUT HER, BECAUSE YOU PUT AWAY MY MEMORIES OF HER! I COULDN'T THINK ABOUT HER, BECAUSE I DIDN'T REMEMBER HER!' 'It was for the better! Now, I just need her to see the consequences of her actions and for her to leave forever. Then, we can go back to how it was and you can become a deatheater and my right hand.' 'You don't want me to be happy and be with her, because you need me to be your right hand?! You're pathetic!' 'Talk very carefully, son.' 'Or what?!' 'SECTUMSEMPRA!' I started bleeding allover my body. I let my head hang down, trying to get as much rest as I could. I know my father wouldn't kill me, so I'm not going to give him the satisfaction of begging for my life. 'What is it boy? Cat got your tongue?' 'What do you want me to say to you, father?!' I said angrily at him. 'I want you to beg! I want you to beg me to heal you!' 'Never going to happen.' 'FINE! Then, I'll just wait for you to die!' 'Fine with me!' I responded. I was still bleeding and I started to get a bit light headed. After about three minutes of loosing all of this blood, I passed out. But, then I woke up again. I was healed, just like I was waiting for him to do. 'What is it father?! Couldn't let me die?!' I said to my father. He stayed quiet. 'I knew it. Deep down you're just as weak as you say I am. You can't even kill your own son!' 'CRUCIO!' He yelled. I felt excruciating pain throughout my whole body. I yelled out in pain. 'Still not going to beg for me to stop?!' My father asked me. 'NEVER!' He stopped the cruciatus curse again. 'You of all people should know, that all of this is nothing I haven't felt before, father.' I said to him. 'Oh, I know. I just wish it would still teach you your lesson, like it used to do.' 'It won't. I'm not scared of getting hurt as long as it keeps me from becoming your right hand and it keeps Y/N safe.' 'Maybe I should let your little girlfriend know, where you are. Let's see how long it will take for her to come here and if she will even come here, to safe you. I'm not so sure if she dares to. And if she does, I'll find a way to make you loyal to me.' My father said with a smirk before leaving me alone in the basement. I just hope that Y/N is smart enough not to come here. I can't risk her getting hurt. 

After an hour my father came back into the room. 'Are you ready for round two, son?' My father said smiling at me. 'Show me what you got.' I said to him. 'Well I would sectumsempra you again, but your little girlfriend is not here yet to watch, so I guess we'll just have to make do with the cruciatus curse: CRUCIO!' Once again I felt excruciating pain allover my body. This time, however I didn't give him the satisfaction of listening to me scream. 'That's no fun! Why are you not screaming in pain?!' He stopped the curse and I tried to get my breathing back to normal. Because of the pain, I had started breathing heavier. 'I'm not going to give you that satisfaction.' I said with a smirk on my face. 'I'm going to get satisfied either way, because I'm sure your little girlfriend will be here any moment.' 'No, she won't!' 'Oh yeah, she will and then you'll see how fun I can make all of this!' 'Just stay the fuck away from her! If you even touch her with one finger, I'm going to kill you!' 'You and what army, son? You can't kill me!' 'I sure can and I sure will!' 

Just as I said that someone knocked on the door. My father opened the door and his disgusting "servant" Peter Pettigrew was standing there. 'What is it Peter?!' My father asked stern. 'The girl. She's here. She just landed on a Hippogriff in the forest behind the house.' NOOOO... She can't be here!! She needs to leave! My father turned around to face me. 'What did I tell you, son? She's here. And I guess I'm going to have some fun with her. But, before that, let's see what she will do when she sees you slowly bleeding out. SECTUMSEMPRA!' I once again started bleeding allover my body. I tried to keep my eyes open as long as I could, because I needed to get Y/N to leave, but I couldn't. My body was still weak from the last Sectumsempra and the Cruciatus Curse, so I passed out after only two minutes now.
