*one and a half weeks later*
~Cordelia's POV~
So far the school year has had its exciting moments, but like usual, most of the time it's just going to class and getting homework to spend your time finishing. Which gets boring after about a week. Sometimes not even that long. But I heard a rumor going around that somebody new is coming to Hogwarts. It may be the middle of the school year, but they allowed it because apparently the kid is from a well known family or something like that. I'm not fully sure, but I also don't really care why they let them in. I'm just excited to possibly have a new friend. I think I overheard people say that he's a 7th year like me too, so that makes becoming the kid's friend easier.

Dinner time finally comes, which is usually when new students, or guests, arrive. I go over to the friend group and greet everybody with a wave. Since I sit right next to Mattheo, I greet him with a kiss instead of a wave. Before Dumbledore makes the food appear, he brings in the new kid. Dumbledore said his name is Lorenzo Berkshire. I think I've actually heard of his family before. They are one of the richer pureblood Slytherin families. He obviously gets sorted into Slytherin. He looks around for a place to sit and I decide to be nice and wave him over to sit next to me. He sits down and waves at all of us. "Hey! Lorenzo, right?" I ask. "Yup, that's me. You are?" He responds. "I'm Cordelia Nott. This is my boyfriend, Mattheo Riddle. She's my best friend, her name is Pansy Parkinson. And that is Theodore Nott, my brother and Pansy's girlfriend," I say, introducing our whole friend group. "Well hello. You most likely already know my name," he jokes. We all laugh and nod. "It's nice to meet you dude," my brother says. "Nice to meet you, Berkshire," Mattheo states. "It's good to meet you, Lorenzo," Pansy says. He smiles and we then start eating.

After dinner, we went to the common room party being held in the Slytherin common room. Our group finds a couch to sit on, but I decide to sit on Mattheo's lap instead. We got some drinks and enjoyed the party, Lorenzo's first since joining Hogwarts. Mattheo and I ended up making out after downing a few drinks. There were a few minutes where he would kiss my neck or I would kiss his jawline. His jawline seems to be one of his very few soft spots on his body, so I like kissing him there as a tease. "You're asking for it now, Nott," Mattheo says, in a deep voice. "Am I?" I respond with a smirk. He smirks and drags me into our room, away from the party. He shuts the door after we both enter the room. He slams me against the door and pins my hands over my head. He starts kissing my neck, knowing that it's a soft spot of mine. I let out a shaky sigh, which makes him smirk even more. "Satisfied, Theo?" I ask. "Not yet. I will be soon enough," he says. I know exactly what he meant. "You will never be able to get away without consequences when it comes to teasing me, Cordelia," he says, whispering it in my ear. A small shiver goes down my spine. "I'll keep that in mind, Mattheo," I respond.

Well, I got laid by Mattheo Riddle for the second time. You think I would've learned my lesson about teasing him, but that consequence won't make me stop anytime soon. I wake up before Mattheo does. I get up, shower, get dressed, and do my hair. I walk out of the bathroom to see if he's awake and he's not. I put my tie on and he's still not awake. Guess I'll have to wake him up. "MATTHEO THOMAS RIDDLE!" I shout. "Huh?! What? I'm up!" He says, completely startled. I laugh. "Morning, sleepyhead. Time to get ready for classes," I say with a smile. "And you couldn't have woken me up in a nicer way?" He asks, not happy to have been awoken. "If I tried to be nicer, you'd just fall right back asleep. Now come on," I say, ruffling his hair slightly. "Don't you even dare think about rolling your eyes at me, mister," I say, knowing what he was about to do. "Bloody hell. Why do you have so much attitude?" He asks, getting up and starting to get ready. "It's part of my personality," I say, giving him a kiss on the cheek. "I'll see you at breakfast, love," I say as I walk out. "Bye," he says, still not fully awake or functioning.

I head to the Great Hall and as soon as I walk in, I get waved over by my friends. I walk over to them with a smile. I decide to sit next to Pansy, and then Mattheo can sit next to me once he gets here. My brother and Enzo are across from us. "Where's your precious boyfriend?" Theodore teases. "Also known as your best friend. But he's still getting ready. When I left our dorm he was still really tired, so he might be a bit cranky. Just warning you guys," I inform them. "Goddamn it, I don't want to have to deal with a cranky Mattheo this morning. I'm still a bit hungover from the party," Pansy states. Everybody, including Pansy, laughs at that comment. I turn to face Enzo. "So, Enzo, how was your first party? Did you find a lucky lady to have a one night stand with?" I ask. He laughs and shakes his head. "Nope, no lady. Just a small hangover. But it was really fun," he says. I smile. "Glad you like it here," I say. He nods. Mattheo joins us shortly after and everybody teases him about being a tired, cranky little boy. He rolls his eyes and threatens to knock each one of them unconscious, but of course I nudge him to make him take it back and apologize. Without me, these guys would most likely be dead by now.
