Our Past ; Mattheo Riddle

interrupted

There was a knock at the door and as mattheo put his belt back on and valeria was putting her underwear back on and pulling the straps of her dress back up onto her shoulders, the door opened with no warning and Theo walked into the room stopping as he looked up to see them. "Am I interrupting something?" He said, his words obviously still slurred. "No I was just cleaning him up after the fight, your not interrupting anything." Valeria trailed off as she started to stand up off the bed, Mattheo just sitting there not knowing what to do. He obviously wanted Valeria, and wanted to be something more and wanted their friends to know, but he knew that that conversation with Valeria would not end very well, and now he needed to focus on getting that certain girl off of his mind. "Ok, im gonna go to bed but you boys have fun." Valeria spoke as she started to leave the room, closing the door behind her. She took a few deep breaths and started walking back to her dorm room. Although she did have an amazing time with Mattheo, all she could think about was needing to get him off of her mind. So she did the only thing she could think of, she got into her dorm room and found that Pansy was not in there. She went over to the secret floorboard underneath her bed and lifted it up finding her secret stash of weed, alcohol, and other drugs that she hasn't touched in a year, or since last time..

Getting the thought out of her head, she lifted the full, untouched bottle of tequila out of the floorboard, taking a second look at the drugs she knows she shouldn't touch and closed the secret hinding spot. She got up and left her room to go to the only place she knew would clear her head.

It was around 2 in the morning and Valeria was sitting up on the railing in the Astronomy tower looking out at the sky. The bottle of tequila was almost fully gone and the world was spinning around her. She knew that drinking was never a good idea for her, especially with her past, but it was the only thing, other than drugs, that could clear her mind and let her relax. She was almost always on edge about everything in her life, especially at home with her father. She never understood why her father was so cruel to her, she always tries to reason it with the fact that her mother died when she was only nine and that made him spiral, but she also knew that Voldemort was back, and looking to gain his revenge. Which also meant, that Valeria would soon need to become one. She has had one encounter with the dark lord so far and with some odd reason, he found a liking to her and her powers that were passed down through her family tree. Most wizards cant perform wandless magic but her family has been able to do so for years on end, and the dark lord had a sort of soft spot for her and her magic.

Valeria was deep in her thoughts until she heard a door squeak open and footsteps coming near her. She didn't have to turn around because she already knew who it was. "Valeria. Whats going on?" Mattheo spoke out wrapping his hands around her waist. "Mattheo I need you to let go of me, I can't deal with this right now." She spoke back pushing his hands off of her, knowing that when she drinks, she cant control her actions and gets very angry, almost like her dad. "How much have you drank tonight Valeria, be honest with me. Im worried about you." He spoke sounding sincere about his words. "Why do you fucking care." She shouted at him turning around, "I don't need your help, neither do I want it ok? Whatever we had before I left was gone right once I found out it was you who spread that rumour and got me kicked out of Hogwarts. You lost all privelage to be worried about me after that bullshit you pulled." She went on and on, getting angrier with every word that came out of her mouth. "Valeria, I didn't come up here to argue with you. I want to make sure your ok and take you to bed. You cannot be drinking like this, I know you remember last time, because you remember everything when your drunk. You can't blackout anymore." He spoke with louder words than the first time. "Oh my fucking god Mattheo, I don't need you watching over me. Im fucking fine, im always fine, you know this. Im not a kid anymore, I can handle myself." She spoke, her words laced with venom. "No Valeria, you listen to me. I know you don't want my help, but you need it. I spread that rumour because my father was going to come find you. I can't let you get caught by him." "Well what if I wanted him to. Your father sees something special in me that no one else does. He took me in for the time I was away and helped him plan his return. And I know you don't want to hear this Riddle. But for the love of god, leave me the fuck alone." She got up off the ledge picking up the tequila bottle and downing whatever was left in it before throwing it off the tower and shattering it in mid air. She walked towards the door to the astronomy tower wanting to be left alone before she does something that she'll regret, but when Mattheo tried grabbing her arm, all of those thoughts went out of her head as she swung her fist right across his face making him stumble back a few feet. "Leave me the fuck alone Mattheo." She yelled as she opened the door and started her climb back down the tower. 

"Well thats gonna leave a mark. Fuck I forgot how hard she could hit." Mattheo spoke to himself as he pulled out a cigarette, finishing it and starting his way back down the tower and to his dorm room to get some rest before the school day tomorrow.
