Borrowed time; Mattheo Riddle

Chapter 2

Bella's pov

As I exited the train I was meet by a big hairy man.

"Oy there you must be Miss Lenox, I'm Hagrid, follow me" he said with a strong English accent.

He lead me to the edge of the lake where a bunch of boats filled with anxious first years waited. As the boats were traveling across the lake I couldn't help but admire the beauty of the castle, the only source of light being cast upon it being the white light of the moon.

Following the first years and Hagrid in to the castle I was pulled aside by a lady in green just before entering the doors to what I assumed to be the great hall. Severus had briefly told me about the sorting ceremony and the creepy hat that was to invad my mind in order to sort me in to a house. Not very exited about that part if I'm being completely honest, but o well.

"Miss Lenox, I'm professor Mcgonagall, It's a pleasure meeting you" she nicely said while stopping us outside the big wooden doors. "The first years will be sorted first and then Headmaster Dumbledore will call your name and the doors will open for you to make your way to the front and be sorted"

"Oh okey" I responded slithy nervos about having to walk all alone to the front.

She seemed satisfied with my answer and presided with taking the first years though the doors and into the hall. While the first years entered I could briefly see the 4 long tables full of student, my nerves beginning to rise up and my hand slightly shaking. Fuck, everybody's eye are gonna be on me, what if I mess upp or fall. My head was spinning with scenarios of everything that could go wrong and after what felt like forever I heard my name being called and the big wooden doors flew open.

As I made my way down the tables I recognized the different houses Severus told me about. To the far right was a sea of yellow, easily recognized as Hufflepuffs. Next to them was the Gryffindors and to my left was the Ravenclaws, leaving the table to the far left to be Slytherin. 

Making my way to the front I saw Severus seated with the other professors giving me a small nod before I sat down on the chair. Mcgonagall placed the sorting hat on my head and I got a small scare when it started talking.

"Ah a Lenox, long time it's been. Clever girl you are, ambitious, a bit reckless to I see" the said hat spoke in my head.

"Well yeh you would be a bitt reckless too when you know you'll be dead soon anyways" I thought to myself, bit annoyed by the hats comment.

"Very well then better be SLYTHERIN" the hat yelled for everyone to hear.

The Slytherin table cheered and as I took a quick glance at Severus, I swear I saw the tiniest smile on his lips. I wasn't surprised by the hats choice, I mean both my parent were Slytherins after all.  I made my way toward the Slytherin table when I saw the brown haired witch from the train wave me over.

"Welcome to Slytherin, were gonna have so much fun" she excitedly said while gesturing for me to take a seat beside her.

"This is Blaise Zabini" she said while gesturing to the dark skinned boy on her right. "And that's Lorenzo Berkshire"

"You can call me Enzo, love" he said with a wink.

"Moving on" Pansy said rolling her eye's at Enzo's comment, "that's Theodor Nott, everybody calls him Theo though and the grumpy blond next to him is Draco Malfoy."

Only one boy remaning at the table, he had brown curly hair and a big scar tracing from his forehead down to his cheek, just nearly missing his right eye. He looked up at me as I studied his features and we looked eye for just a second before Pansy said "And last but not least Mattheo Riddle."
