From Potter to Riddle (Mattheo riddle x oc harry potter sister)

Part 18

We walked around outside breathing fresh air and roasting under the sun. When we finally decided to enter the castle we all separated ways. I walked to the common room with pansy. I collapsed in one of the black leather armchairs and looked around the common room glaring at anybody who looked at me.

 I was stewing over a fight I had with Harry that morning replaying the argument inside my head. He was mad about me sharing a room with mattheo again and had started yelling at me as if I had planned the whole thing. He was yelling about me forgetting who killed our parents. When I snapped and started screaming at him for being so thick headed and that mattheo wasn't his father. When harry lowered his voice and and accused me of fucking him. And that was when I lost it screaming at him and finally stormed away.

Pansy shot me a sympathetic look before speaking up. "Charlotte, you know Harry's just worried about you, right?" she said softly, her voice barely audible over the chatter of other students.

 I sighed deeply, feeling a mix of frustration and hurt. "I know, Pansy, but he has no right to accuse me like that," I muttered bitterly. "It's like he doesn't trust me at all." Pansy leaned closer, her expression serious. "Maybe he's just scared, Charlotte. Scared of losing you to someone else, scared of losing you like he lost your parents." I felt a pang of guilt at her words. 

Pansy always had a way of cutting through my defences and seeing straight to the heart of the matter. She was right, of course. Harry's fear of losing me was understandable, given everything we had been through together.

 But that didn't excuse his accusations or his anger. "I don't know, Pansy," I admitted, my voice barely above a whisper. Pansy reached out and squeezed my hand reassuringly. "Maybe you should talk to him, Charlotte. Tell him how you feel." I refused.

Every time I saw him, the memory of our heated argument replayed in my mind, filling me with a mixture of anger and sadness. So instead of confronting him, I chose to keep my distance, burying myself in my studies and spending more time with Mattheo. As the days passed, I could sense Harry's frustration growing. He would shoot me accusing glances whenever he saw me with Mattheo, his jaw clenching in silent anger. 

But I refused to let his disapproval sway me. Mattheo had been nothing but supportive and understanding throughout everything. One evening, as I sat with Mattheo in the library, Harry stormed in, his expression dark and stormy. 

He marched over to where we were sitting, his eyes blazing with fury."What's going on here, Charlotte?" he demanded, his voice sharp and accusing.I bristled at his tone, my own anger bubbling to the surface. "What does it look like, Harry?" I shot back, my voice dripping with sarcasm. "I'm studying with Mattheo. "Don't give me that i know what you are doing""You don't know anything, Harry," I spat, my voice trembling with emotion. "Mattheo has been there for me when you haven't. 

Harry's eyes widened in shock at my words, hurt flashing across his face. But before he could respond, I stood up abruptly, my hands shaking with rage. "I'm done with this," I declared, my voice cold and final. "I won't let you dictate who I can and can't spend time with. If you can't accept that, then maybe we're better off not speaking at all."With that, I turned on my heel and stormed out of the library, leaving Harry staring after me in stunned silence. As I made my way back to my dormitory, tears pricked at the corners of my eyes, but I refused to let them fall. 

When I reached the portrait I mumbled the password and entered a full and crazed mob. A party had started while I was out and it was raging in full swing. When I entered I pushed past a huge crowd of people gathered around the stairs. I walked into my room and sat on my bed looking out the window and listening to the party rage. Mattheo walked in after a couple minutes dropping the books on the desk while looking sombre. " im sorry" he said walking towards his bed i shook my head " no im sorry he's such an idiot" he rose at these words and walked over to me. 

He sat next to me making the bed dip. He put his hand on my shoulder and pulled me closer. I sat next to him for a long time not talking when we finally dozed off. He had one arm under my head and the other wrapped around my body. I was pulled close, breathing in his scent. I finally dozed off completely. And did not wake till morning.

I woke up in his arms listening to his soft snores. I gazed at his face wanting to capture all that I could before he awoke. He shuffled in his sleep and I slowly rose out of bed going to get ready. I grabbed my robes and entered the bathroom for a quick shower before getting ready and leaving the dorm. Before leaving i grabbed a book and tossed it at mattheo giggling as i left the room.

 I walked into the great hall spotting hermione. I veered left and went to sit with her. I grabbed some toast and jam, taking small bites. We gossiped about random things and soon rose to go our separate ways when her smile dropped i turned and it was harry. I rose quickly and pushed past him on my way to the library.

 I found a book and checked it out, put it in my bag and left the library making my way outside to visit Hagrid. I walked slowly towards the path and generally began to speed up and soon I was running down the hill. 

I missed a step and went tumbling. I quickly put my hands out to stop me and propelled by a force I flew back into the hill winding myself. Rubbing my head and using a few choice curse words I sat for a second before continuing the descent to Hagrid's hut. I sauntered up to Hagrid's house and knocked on the door. 

He opened the door smiling " how're ya doing kiddo" he said grinning i returned the smile and replied "not bad" we walked together into the forest and slowly pushed past all the bushes we reached my secret spot that Hagrid was helping me secure. 

I found a clearing and started to build a small little hut but Hagrid found it and offered to help me so I had a small little area where I could let off some steam. We had to put up the final touches today. I put down my bed and pulled the book out. I flipped to a page. I whispered the incantation while waving my hands pointing to different areas making trees grow in directions so I had a safe place where no one could find.

 I waved two trees into an x position and made a small doorway hagrid walked around the outside checking for gaps. Soon it was finished and we made our way back to the castle. Mattheo was waiting for me by the door and as I walked up he ran to me. Hagrid patted my back and retreated back down to his hut. 

Mattheo was talking about an announcement that Dumbledore was giving. We walked into the great hall and sat with Draco and the two trolls. I ate a small lunch and settled for going back to the common room to study. I was revising potions when mattheo came in wrapping his hands around my stomach he laid his face in my neck i turned to look at him. 

He pulled me up from the chair and spun me around. We started laughing and I tried to teach him to dance. (during the summer i had tried teaching him but he danced like a clown) he settled down and pulled me into a hug and kissed the top of my head. We continued to slowly dance around the room for a while.
