     You had gotten into a bit of a verbal fight with Harry Potter in the courtyard.

     There had always been tension between you two, and he had the same issue with Draco from the start. He didn't like any of your Slytherin boys, and they didn't like him.

     Your fight with Harry had gotten to the point where insults actually started to sting.

     "You're no better than your Death Eater mother," Harry growled.

     "What did you say to her?!" Mattheo bristled, standing up. He'd had enough.

     "Sit down," you commanded, and Matt sat back down, glaring at Harry. "Be humble, Matt."

     He said nothing, crossing his arms and bringing a leg up so he could rest his foot on the bench, the other on the ground. He leaned back against the edge of the bench table.

     You turned to Harry. "Potter, you haven't even got one."

     Matt's eyebrows shot up in surprise, and he watched you stand up and walk to the Gryffindor boy with your arms crossed.

     "No room to talk, here, Love," you snarled at him with a voice deepened with contempt and fury, lifting one arm to push his round glasses further up his nose with your pointer finger. "You shouldn't go around insulting one's mother when yours has never been around to watch you do it."

     Harry breathed a deep breath of anger before he turned and trudged away to his friends. You knew you hit a nerve. The nerve.

     You watched him walk off with your arms crossed again. You were seriously irked by his blatant insult, just standing there in silence as you watched the other students mingle in the courtyard.

     Noticing that you hadn't moved, visibly upset, Mattheo stood up and slid an arm across your shoulders.

     "You annihilated him, Sweetheart," he grinned.

     "He annihilated me, first," you said, thinking about how he brought up the sensitive subject of your mother. "Doesn't mean I didn't drag his sorry arse down, with me, though."

     Matt chuckled. "That's what I love about you," he said, pressing a kiss to your temple.

     You smiled and looked up at him. "Thank you, Matty. I know you'd do the same to anyone else who'd say anything. I love that about you, too."

     He smiled widely before kissing you properly.

     "Get a room," you heard, and you and Matt broke away and turned to see Theo walking up with Lorenzo and Draco.

Draco sneered and Theo grinned at Harry and the other two Gryffindors before walking over to you and Mattheo.

     "Oh, guys, you missed something golden," Matt said, sitting down with you as the others sat, as well.

     He proceeded to explain what happened, you interjecting a few times. The other boys were proud of you.

     "You aren't your mother," they'd said. "You're much better than that. Infinitely better. You're our girl!"

     These boys made you feel better every time.
