In the Shadows (Mattheo Riddle)

Chapter 5

For the rest of the game I was mentally checked out. Trying to process exactly what had just occurred. Trying to comb through my feelings about it.

Until Theo tapped my leg, "i think its best you take her to bed now" I looked over to see pansy struggling to stand, trying to talk up my brother.

"yeah should definitely try to save her from her self" Enzo added. I let out a loud sign and made my way over to her.

"lets go love, I'm tired and you look it too" I said grabbing her arm and pulling it towards the dorms, praying she wouldn't put up a fight.

She roped her arm in mine, leaning her head on my shoulder, rambling some drunk nonsense not even I could make out, and I spoke fluent drunk. As I edged her towards the stairs, I gazed over my shoulder to make sure the boys were still in good enough standing to find their own dorms tonight.

My eyes automatically met his, as he took a long drag of his cigarette, once again looking me up and down. Fucking riddle. I couldn't understand why he kept looking at me this way. It was just spin the bottle. It certainly meant nothing to me.

I laid pansy down on her bed, threw a blanked over her and laid a bucket next to her bed for safe measures.

I took of my make up, changed into my pajamas, blew my candle out, and finally laid my head on my pillow. My buzz had worn off, the typical headache was starting and my mind was everywhere.

Did I really just have my first kiss with riddle? I couldn't think of anyone I hated more in the castle. He had this cockiness to him, that made him automatically irritable. I just couldn't stand him. Yet my mind couldn't stop wandering, wondering how it would possibly feel to do it again? No no no no no. But, what if we did? We couldn't. He was Draco's best friend. I hated him.
