The Stupid Closet

9

The next day, the Slytherin house was bustling as the first quidditch game of the year was about to commence. As Slytherins did with everything, they were very serious about quidditch, wanting to win more than anyone else.

The quidditch team always left early and had team breakfast so that meant you, Pansy, and Daphne were left to spend the morning together before the match.

You all get ready in your dorm, putting on green paint and wearing all slytherin attire. This was the first game for any house this season so it was a big deal.

Shortly before match time, you all head to the pitches sitting together in the Slytherin stand. As Theo warms up and stretches, he sees you. He points up at you and you blow a kiss back.

"You guys are so cute" Daphne mentions as she claps. You didn't respond, just smiling to yourself. The boys start the match, the stadium roaring.

You couldn't help but notice that Mattheo wasn't here, but you had a feeling quidditch was a touchy subject for him. You hadn't pushed him into talking about the subject and figured he would tell you when he was ready....but that was before he switched back to the old mattheo.

The match was close, Slytherin down by ten points. Theo grabbed the quaffle, weaving through a sea of Hufflepuff players. One knocks into him but he recovers before throwing the quaffle through the hoop, scoring and tying the game.

Everyone cheered. Only a moment later does Draco come up with the golden snitch, ending the game and marking a win for Slytherin. You leave the stand, heading down towards the locker room. You were going to be ready to congratulate Theo when he came out.

You stood there, waiting for him, when a sixth year Gryffindor walked by with her friend, "Mattheo Riddle? Seriously?"

The girl responds back, "what? He's hot...and he knows what he's doing."

"So he's good in bed?"

"More than good. It was amazing" you hear as they walk past. Your attention was cut off when Draco touched your shoulder.

"Hey!" You smile, throwing your arms around him. Draco hated hugs but he tolerated them from you, "great game D"

"Thanks, Theo should be out in a minute" he mentions before heading back to the castle.

You wait for a few more minutes before Theo comes out, picking you up and spinning you around instantly.

"You did great!" You exclaim as he lets you down. You start walking with him towards the castle, holding hands.

You walk through the halls of the castle towards the Slytherin house when you see Mattheo sketching in his notebook off to the side in the hall. He was well hidden but you easily found him.

"Hey I forgot I have to grab something from the library." You mention. Theo stops walking, "do you want me to go with you?"

"No it's ok, I'll meet up with you in a minute" you say before pecking his cheek. He walks away. Once he turns around the corner, you walk over to Mattheo.

"You're sleeping with Melanie Zorra?" You ask abruptly. He doesn't stop drawing until you take the book out of his hands.

"Why does it matter to you?" He retorts.

"Mattheo, she's a gryffindor. She's not even pure blood." You scoff.

"So what? I can sleep with whoever I want."

"I just think you could do better." You shrug.

"Better, right...like you?" He raises an eyebrow and stares at you as he stands up, wanting his notebook back in his possession.

"I-" you start.

"Jealousy looks good on you." He says as he swipes his book back, catching you off guard.

"I'm not jealous." You defend yourself. You knew you were, but you didn't want him to know that. Nobody could know that.

"Are you sure? Because it sounds like you're jealous." He smirks.

"Why would I be? I'm with Theo and I love him." You say. You were trying to convince yourself. You hadn't said the L word before but you had to try to make it clear to Mattheo.

"No you don't." He states, emotionless.

"You can't tell me how I feel Mattheo." You respond back. You were now only inches away.

"If you loved him, you wouldn't be talking to me right now or asking why I'm sleeping with a bloody gryffindor." He snaps back.

You stare into his eyes, inches apart, not sure what to say.

"I have to go." You say. You stare into his eyes, glancing at his lips every once in a while. He does the same thing, those big brown eyes once again making you melt inside.

"Then go." He says, not looking away or backing up.

You stare at him for another moment before walking away. You look back at him, seeing him hold his notebook by his side, his other hand rubbing his mouth as he watches you walk away.

As you walk back through the castle by yourself, you try not to get mad at Mattheo. Who was he to say you were jealous? To say that you weren't in love with Theo? It was absolutely ridiculous and uncalled for.

You walk back to the Slytherin house, seething from your conversation. Once you walk in, you make your way up to Theo's dorm, opening the door as he pulls a shirt over his head.

"Hey" he smiles before walking up to you and connecting your lips with his.

"Hi", you smile back, "are we partying tonight?"

"Obviously, want me to pick you up at 10?" Theo asks, placing his hands on your ass.

"Sure, can't wait." You smiled into a kiss before backing away and leaving his room. You really were excited to party but you were also thinking about what had happened at the last one. You had kissed Mattheo at the last one. Really kissed him.

You head back to your room and talk with Pansy for a while, gossiping about all of Hogwarts practically before you guys realize it's dinner time. You head down to the great hall and grab some food to go, heading back up to your dorm.

You two start getting ready after eating a bit. You put on a black satin skirt and a mesh black top, with your bra underneath.You add black platform high heel boots and pin half of your hair up with a claw clip.

You stand in front of the bathroom mirror, applying red lipstick when Theo walks in.

"You're so hot." Theo says as he wraps his arms around you from behind, leaning down and resting his head on your shoulder.

"Thank you." You look into the mirror, seeing the two of you together. You looked good with him and everyone could see that but upon looking for yourself, you felt something was missing.

You blinked, coming back to reality, "let's go" you pat his hand.

He leads you out of the dorm, Pansy throwing on some perfume when you shut the door. The music was booming and the common room was packed from corner to corner with Slytherins. Some were playing games, some were just talking, some were drinking, and of course there were those who were making out with each other.

You head over to the liquor table and pour yourself a shot. You down it easily before making yourself another drink, meeting Theo over on the couch. You sit on his lap as you sip your drink, listening to the conversation around you.

You continue sipping your drink as Theo rubs his hand along your thigh subtly.

"Oh my god." Aria, a sixth year Slytherin says.

You look over to where she is to see Mattheo walking into the common room with none other than Melanie Zorra. Great, he brought the skank to the party.
