In love with a Riddle || Y/N x Mattheo Riddle

Smile, Princess

In potions we were just learning what different positions there are. I looked over at Mattheo, who was spinning his wand in between his fingers. "Mattheo stop, your going to poke someones eye out." I whispered over to him. "Anything for you Malfoy." He said putting his wand under the desk. I went back to taking notes of what Snape was saying when I felt something cold a little but above me knee. I looked down and say Mattheo putting his wand on my thigh. I grabbed it and threw it off of me while giving him a death stare. He then put his hand on my back. I looked at him confused. "Smile, princess" he said. Something about that made me melt away. I snapped out of it and threw his hand off me. How I hated but loved that man at the same time.

(After all the classes)

I went to the library and got a book. I sat down and started reading. "What are you reading?" I hear someone say. I look up and see Theodore. I flinch when he grabs the chair next to me to sit. "It's okay. Im not going to hurt you." He said but I knew he was lying. "I'm reading Romeo and Juliet." I said to him with my nose still in the book. "Seriously? That's a terrible book!" He said. I looked at him with a surprised look on my face. "Really? Have you ever read it?" I said to him. "Yes, I have. In year 2 I read it." He said back smiling. "And we Are in year.. 5? That was three years ago! There is no way you remember that." I said back to him with an attitude. "I don't like that attitude." He said firmly. He got up and left because there were other people here. I got up and cried, knowing he will hurt me whenever we were alone.

I walked up to Mattheo and me whistled (not like a cat call so don't even think that that!) I didn't whistle back and he knew I wasn't okay. In year 3 we would whistle. If the other one didn't whistle back, they weren't okay. He looked at me and hugged me, trying not to touch the bruises on my neck. "I- I better go." I said pulling away from the hug. "Okay. Smile, princess" he said while I was walking away. I was smiling. I couldn't stop. His arms felt safe. They were a warm welcome into a home. I was happy, but still worried about Theodore.
