Theodore's Pov:

"Dear students, due to recent events, we have decided to end this Hogwarts year a bit earlier, the date being June 2nd. Meaning, the O.W.L.S and N.E.W.T.S shall be held earlier as well. I shall publish the exam schedules in about a week, and the objectives shall be what you've learned from the start of the year to last week" Professor McGonagall announced at dinner in the great hall

"I trust you will all respect the reason behind this decision and study well. Thank you"

The rest of the students in the hall went back to murmuring and chatting, whereas Mattheo and Aliyah looked quite uneasy. "We're going to have to leave early this year?" Fidgeted Mattheo with the rings on his fingers, Aliyah doing the same.

"I really don't want to go back, and I think I've lost my appetite" she got up to leave for the Astronomy Tower.

To not raise Mattheo's recent suspicions, I followed behind her ten minutes later. And there she was, leaning against the railing. "Why'd you leave?" I wrapped my arms around her from behind

"Didn't want to be there anymore..." she replied with a sigh "Theo, what am I going to do?"

"I'm not sure, but what I do know is that you have to talk to me on the phone every day and you need to keep going. That's part of what you should try to do"

"And, what's the other part?"... "I'm not sure. What I'm sure of is that I love you" I kissed her neck softly. "What I'm sure of is that Mattheo would kill us both if he heard that" she joked and we both chuckled.

"You're damn right" someone's voice called out from behind. We both turned around to see Mattheo, Oh no.

"Matt, I-" "Cut the bullshit, Al, how long has this been going on?"

We both stayed silent. "Theo?" Mattheo questioned. I kept silent, trying to form the right words but they just wouldn't come out.

"Theodore, answer me" "What" "How long?" ... "I don't kn-"
"Theodore answer me, how long have you been fucking around with my sister?" He asked angrily once more.

"We've never slept together, Mattheo" Aliyah replied, "I don't give a shit, how long have you been keeping this from me?!" He yelled

I sighed, "Since mid-March" I admitted. He scoffed, "Almost three months, then? Aliyah, almost three months and you didn't tell me about this?" He scolded

"I promise you, we wanted to tell you earlier, but we wanted to be secret for a while, and we knew you'd be mad, I'm sorry" she apologized.

There was a pause of silence "He treats you well?" He asked. Excuse me? "Mattheo, I treat her amazingly- ", "I asked Aliyah." He cut me off, raising a brow at her

"Mattheo he treats me better than any other guy ever has" I felt my heart flutter at her words.

... "You keep her safe and out of trouble and we're good, alright mate?" He sighed. "Of course".

Aliyah and I were studying together in the library. The day was extremely hot, so she wore a short-sleeved shirt. Normal, right? Wrong.
