Mattheo Riddle was a prominent Slytherin student at Hogwarts, known for his sharp mind and charming demeanor. He had been dating Y/N, a bright and kind-hearted witch from Slytherin, for nearly a year. Their relationship seemed strong, built on shared laughter, study sessions in the library, and whispered secrets in the corridors.

But behind Y/N's back, Mattheo had been entangled in a secret affair with Daphne, a captivating Slytherin known for her beauty and confidence. At first, it was innocent flirtation, fueled by the excitement of forbidden attraction. Mattheo found himself drawn to Daphne's allure, her quick wit matching his own.

As their relationship intensified, Mattheo convinced himself he could have both—Y/N, his steady girlfriend, and Daphne, his thrilling secret. He justified his actions with fleeting desires, ignoring the consequences of his deceit.

One evening, Y/N stumbled upon a private moment between Mattheo and Daphne—a stolen kiss in the shadows of the Slytherin common room. Shocked and heartbroken, Y/N confronted Mattheo, her voice trembling with betrayal. Mattheo tried to explain, to apologize, but Y/N couldn't bear to hear his excuses. In tears, she walked away, leaving Mattheo to face the weight of his betrayal alone.

Devastated by Y/N's rejection, Mattheo realized the gravity of his mistakes. He watched helplessly as Y/N distanced herself, finding solace in Theo who had always admired her from afar. Mattheo's heart ached with regret, knowing he had lost Y/N's trust and love forever.

In the weeks that followed, Mattheo reflected on his actions. He saw how happy Y/N was with Theo, who treated her with the respect and loyalty she deserved. Mattheo's regret deepened as he understood the pain he had caused and the irreparable damage to their relationship.

Desperate to make amends, Mattheo tried to reach out to Y/N, expressing his remorse and begging for forgiveness. But Y/N remained steadfast in her decision, her heart guarded against further hurt. She had moved on, finding comfort and happiness with Theo, who had shown her what true love and fidelity looked like.

Alone with his thoughts, Mattheo faced the consequences of his choices. He learned a difficult lesson about the importance of honesty and loyalty in relationships. Despite his regrets, he knew he had to live with the pain of losing Y/N's love.

As time passed, Mattheo matured and vowed never to repeat his mistakes. He focused on becoming a better person, striving to earn back the respect of his peers and himself. Although he couldn't change the past, he carried the lessons learned from his betrayal, hoping to one day find redemption in his actions and relationships.
