His and Only His | Mattheo Riddle

Skipping Classes

*the next day*
~Cordelia's POV~
Somehow, I don't know how, Mattheo was lucky enough to not have been caught, or tattled on by Draco, about knocking Draco unconscious, so he didn't get a detention. Which makes me super happy for him. Even though violence isn't the answer, he did it to protect me from most likely getting raped. Mattheo and I are just relaxing in our beds when I check the time and realize that we have to go to class. "Theo, we have to get to our first class of the day," I inform him. He sends me a glare and takes a deep breath. "Let's skip the whole day today," he suggests. "No. Definitely not," I say, rejecting his idea. "Please?" he says, slightly begging. I walk over and sit next to him. "Fine. Just this once," I say, rolling my eyes at him. "You say that now, but I know that you'll skip with me again at some point," he says with a smirk. He's not wrong. I basically never say no to him and he never says no to me. Well, we have said no to each other, but we say yes more often.

"What will we do the whole day though?" I ask him. "Hmm. I guess I haven't thought about that.." he says, starting to think of things to do. "Of course you haven't," I mutter under my breath. "You're so moody today," Mattheo says, stating the obvious. He scoots closer to me and kisses my nose, which makes a small smile show up on my face. "There's the smile that I love," he says, smiling at me. I giggle. "I guess I can try to cheer up," I hesitate. Mattheo wraps his arms around my waist and pulls me onto his lap. "Theo!" I exclaim, trying to get off of his lap. But he holds me there.

Mattheo and I decide to go and hangout in the Forbidden Forest. We technically aren't supposed to be in the forest, but we don't give a shit. Mattheo pulls out his pack of cigarettes. And takes a hit of a newly lit one. "Can I please have one?" I ask. "No," he firmly says, avoiding my eyes. Damn it, he knows I'm making puppy dog eyes. "I'll keep begging. And you know that I can beg for hours!" I exclaim. He ignores my comment, not believing that I will. "Please, please, please," I say, starting to beg. He groans and sighs. He pulls a new one out of the box and hands it to me. I take a hit of it. He rolls his eyes and sits on a tree stump. I walk over to him and sit on his lap. He starts smirking. "Keep the dirty jokes to yourself, dude," I say, stopping him from teasing me with a dirty joke. He whines and then has another hit of his cigarette. And I take another hit of mine too.

Suddenly, we hear footsteps so Mattheo grabs my hand and we hide behind a huge rock. Mattheo tries to peek over the top to see who it is, but I pull him down. "Mattheo, don't do that! You could've gotten caught!" I say, shouting at him in a whisper. He sighs. "Fine. I'll stay down until they leave," he whispers back. "God, you can be so sassy sometimes," he mutters to himself. "I heard that!" I whisper to him and slap him in the arm. "I'm not wrong!" He whispers, defending himself. Then I start to hear something so I shush him and listen closer. The footsteps are getting quieter, meaning they are going back to the castle. Both Mattheo and I stand up and see that nobody is there, so they definitely went back. We laughed and tightly hugged each other, relieved that we didn't get in trouble.

It eventually starts to get dark, so we sneak back inside the castle and go to dinner. We eat some food and then go back to our dormitory. "Today was a lot of fun. Thank you for convincing me to skip," I say. Theo smiles at me. "No problem, Cor," he says. We both get changed and go to bed, even though we will end up actually going to classes tomorrow.
