The next day I woke up at 6am and shut off my alarm that was ear piercing. I then got out of bed and made my way into the bathroom to have a quick shower and start getting ready.

I got dressed and headed over to my vanity that was placed in the corner of my room with lights all around it. I started doing my makeup only 2 steps in when there was a loud knock at the door. I made my way over and opened it to see mattheo stood smiling down at me. And once again the bubbles in my stomach came back.

"And how can I help you this morning Mr riddle" "I just came to see if you wanted to walk to the great hall for breakfast with me" he smiled with a warm tone. "Give me 20 minutes but you can come in and wait if you would like" I spoke with a warm smile as he smiled back and entered my dorm. He stopped in his tracks examining my dorm and said "I like what you've done with the place" I said thanks and sat back down at my vanity watching him through my mirror leaning on my bed post watching me do my makeup.

One I had done my makeup I took my hair out of the braid I had done the night before and let my blonde hair flow down my back where it stopped mid way. I slightly ran my fingers through the roots to give it some volume and could see mattheo staring at me through the mirror. I turned around and smiled at him whilst putting on my converse ready to get going. " nice shoes darling you have good taste" mattheo said whilst looking at his shoes smirking at the fact we were matching.

I picked up my back smiling at his comment and turned to him smiling and saying "come on we gotta get going if we want to eat something". I started walking to the door to open it but mattheo got there before me opening it for me and letting me through.

We made our way down to the great hall people staring at us left right and centre at the fact a potter and a riddle are walking together. I rolled my eyes at the stares we were getting and flung the doors open when everyone turned to look at me. "Hey losers you all got a staring problem or something" I said in a sassy tone and rolled my eyes. Behind me I could hear mattheo holding in a laugh as I walked over to the table taking my normal seat with mattheo in his now assigned seat opposite me.

After breakfast we made our way to our first lesson as a group (we all had potions with I was good at so was Blaise and Draco but the others. Well there not the best at it). Once we got to potions snape stood us all at the front off the class saying how he had assigned us all now seats. I was pissed off because I had sat next to pansy since first year that's how a friendship started really, but I knew he would split us up as we never shut up.

Professor snaps started assigning the seats for everyone, when the last 2 tables were getting called I realised that it was me, mattheo, Harry and Draco. Harry and Draco got called to sit on a table infront of one at the back which only meant I would be sat next to mattheo. I wasn't complaining tho if I'm being honest. Pansy on the other hand was fuming she got sat next to lavender whatever her name is who keeps obsessing over Ron, it's quite annoying actually considering he was ginger and was in love with granger.

Me and mattheo made our way to our desk and sat down waiting for snaps to start the lesson, after about 10 minutes or so I felt a warm strong hand with cold rings on my thigh through my tights. I looked to the side to see mattheo smirking in his seat looking forwards "focusing" on the lesson. After about 30 minutes of me drawing all over my hands and parchment professor snaps asked me to come up and smell a potion called amortentia.

I made my way to the front of the class and started to smell the potion. I had to think a minute or two before knowing exactly what the smell was. "And what did you smell miss potter" snaps asked in his boring tone as usual. " I smell cologne (strong), cigarettes, smoke" I said thinking to myself who it was. As I turned back to my seat I saw mattheo staring at me with wide eyes but I decided to brush it off.

A few moments later mattheo was called up to do the same thing. "I smell vanilla, cigarettes, cherry" he said with a smile already knowing who that person was just from being in her room that morning.

He walked back over to the desk I was sitting on with his hands in his pockets smiling to himself whilst at the same time as I was smiling to myself knowing he smelt me. Then it hit me.

He was who I smelt in the potion.
