Borrowed time; Mattheo Riddle

Chapter 33

Bellas pov

We made our way back towards the others, Mattheo holding my hand as we walked. They noted our return but didn't make a big deal out of it thankfully. Although Pansy did do a wiggle of excitement while silently clapping her hands as I looked over at her. 

We sat around for a while longer enjoying the night, a new found peace filled my body as I rested my head on Mattheo's shoulder. I might not have long left but I was gonna make the most of the time that remained. As the others talked I shifted my head looking up at Mattheo, his eyes finding mine as he looked down. "Does this mean we're officially a couple or do you I have to wait for you to pass me a note asking me to circle my answer?". The smile spreading on his lips was enough to send any woman to her knees, "Oh you're definitely gonna have to wait for that note, otherwise I won't have any written proof you said yes". I bit my bottom lips as I tried to hold back my smile. 

When the cold eventually won we retreated back to the castle, not being very quiet as we made our way back to the common room, I mean there would be no point as we just lit up the entire sky with fireworks. 

The room was still rearranged with the couch group in the middle and the table in the back, although the table had been cleaned and the dishes taken away, thanks to our favorite house elfs. The boys all took their seats in the couches while Pansy took mine and Daphnes arm holding us back. "Ladies I think we have a visit to make" an evil smirk on her face as she was biting her lip. She had sobered up quite a bit by now and I looked at Daphne seeing how she felt about it. She meet my stare, tilting her head a little and giving me an "Why not" kind of shrug. "Well then, what do we have in mind?" I said looking between the two. 

After a while of plotting Draco spoke up "You ladies gonna join us or just stand there giggling". 

"Sorry boys but we have to make a little visit to a dear someone" Pansy said dragging the both of us towards the girls dorm. 

"Looks like we're not the only ones sleeping alone tonight" Enzo said to Blaise, mocking the others. 

"We'll be back soon, wait there alright?" I directed the last part to Mattheo who with a glimmer in his eye and leaned back telling me he would be waiting. 

We quietly made our way to Daphne and Pansy's room, or well as quietly as three half drunk girls can be, Pansy then grabbed the stuff needed while me and Daphne removed our shoes making it easier for us to sneak around. After Pansy had slipped out of hers we let Daphne lead the way to Astorias dorm. We softly opened the door which she stupidly had left unlocked, probably hoping Mattheo would come by... desperate whore. Anyway, we made our way inside the room seeing Astoria fast asleep and snoring. Trying to quietly look trough her stuff we found her face cream on her vanity and dropped exactly 3 drops inside it before putting it back. While me and Pansy had done that Daphne had found her body lotion and put a few drops of her potion in there. We snuck back out the room trying our best to keep quiet until we were far enough away that she wouldn't her us, then we broke out in laughter. 

"Omg, I accidentally dropped way too much in her lotion" Daphne said making us all laugh even more. My stomach was hurting by now and we entered the common bathroom for the final part. All the girls had their own lockers in here for keeping their showers articles in. The best thing being that the locker had the same number as your dorm, making it easy enough to find Astorias. Using the alohamora we grabbed her shampoo and dropped way too many drops of the potion in before shaking it and locking up the locker again. "Like we were never even here" Daphne said as she we began walking out. 

"I can't wait to see her reaction tomorrow" I said, for the first time in my life actually looking forwards to seeing Astorias face. 

"How do you even have this stuff?" Daphne asked Pansy as she looked over the bottles we had used.
