Pulling away I smile, softly punching his arm, and looking to the floor as I lean my head against his chest. My smile slowly fades and I begin to sigh, "I can't believe he's coming back tomorrow." Mattheo takes a hold of my hand and kisses my head. "It'll be okay, we have each other now," He says in an effort to comfort me. I look up at him nervously. "He won't try hurt you again... will he?" I ask. He hesitates, before turning me round and wrapping his arms around my shoulders. 

"Look down there," he says pointing to Berkshire and Nott, essentially changing the subject. "What about them?" I ask. "You're not a huge fan of Nott are you?" he asks, slipping away from me and grabbing a piece of chipped tile. "Not really, though not long ago I wasn't a fan of you either," I roll my eyes, mumbling the last part. "I'd beg to differ, but whatever," He says, also rolling his eyes. My jaw drops and I shove him a little. He chuckles at me and throws the tile, hitting Nott in the back of the neck. Gobsmacked I cover my mouth with my hand, trying not to laugh.

Riddle hands me a piece of tile and I throw it, accidentally hitting a small Ravenclaw kid. We both instantly duck and laugh at my shit aim. "Here try again," He says handing me another piece. Instantly I stand up, soon noticing my brother. Throwing it as had as I can I watch as he turns around confused. I burst out laughing and he stares at me in disbelief. I point the finger at him winking, before walking backwards into Mattheo. He soon wraps his arms around me again, also winking at my brother before walking away from the roofs edge.

Unwilling to remove myself from his arms we sat on the roof awhile longer, putting off lunch and more importantly the crowds. Eventually getting up I take a deep breathe  gripping onto his hand. We walk down the halls, heads held high. Another cluster of students begin to swarm us with questions. I lean into Mattheos arm slightly, annoyed this is happening again.

Finally making it into the Great Hall for food we sit in the far corner. I receive a few judgemental looks, though I didn't know many of the people glaring at us. I try and ignore it as Berkshire spots us. "'That's all' my ass, I knew you two were dating," He states sitting down opposite us. I roll my eyes, proceeding to eat. "We weren't," Mattheo informs him. My eyes dart back and forth as the two argue.

They were at it for ages and I eventually get up to leave, pecking Mattheos cheek as I do so. Walking around I spot my brother in the same spot I'd seen him before hand. With a proud smirk on my face I walk up to him. "Finished with your hissy-fits?" I ask before continuing to talk to him. He merely turns his back, facing Ron and Hermione. She keeps motioning towards me and I notice him sigh before reluctantly turning back towards me. "I'm..." He stops turning back to Hermione. "Do I really have to? I don't need a sister. I've gone long enough without her-" I hear him mummble. She continues to glance back at me and he hesitates before once again facing me. "I'm... Sorry..... for... over-reacting," He finally spits out. I roll my eyes,  smiling, as I pull him into a bear hug. 

Messing up his hair I notice a small smile on his face. "I promise he's not like his father..." I pause for a moment as he processes. "...This edition has a nose." I notice the lot holding in a laugh, and I smile a bit too. Letting go of Harry I give him a small nudge. "Good luck tomorrow!"
