⬩SECRET⬩

Lorenzo and I haven't really discussed us since the hospital. I texted him to come to my dorm so we could talk privately. I sat on my bed looking at my room which I found out Lauryn and Astoria cleaned for me. I have been so depressed lately that cleaning felt like a burden. I gave the girls spa coupons to thank them. It does make me feel better to have a clean room again.

Midnight was scratching her post as a knock came to the door. I took a deep breath before walking to the door. I opened it up to see Lorenzo leaning on the doorframe with a bouquet of daisies. He has been delivering daisies for weeks now to me.

"H-Hi," I mumbled motioning for him to come inside.

"Here," he smiled at me handing me the daisies. I tried not to smile as I held onto the flowers. My favorite flowers. I closed the door.

I set them beside my vase filled with the last bouquet he gave me last Sunday. I turned around to see him standing by my bed.

"Fire stop being so shy," said Lorenzo as I leaned on the desk. Lorenzo walked to me as I tried to step back. He wrapped his arm around my waist pulling me forward hugging me. I wrapped my arm around his neck hugging him tightly. His hand went to my neck and hair as I buried my face into his shoulder, "Relax Mon amour. Relax," he whispered into my ear," I'm not leaving you,"

I felt all of the tense leave my body as I held onto him tighter. He held my head close to him, "I miss your curls," he mumbled

"I do to," I said pulling away. His hands went to my waist as I looked into his brown eyes feeling butterflies in my stomach. I haven't had that feeling in months, and it feels like its brand-new feeling again.

"Fuck it," Lorenzo mumbled before his lips met mine as his hands were on my face cupping my cheeks and fingers in drTy  t Fmy hair. I kissed him back feeling an explosion just like the first time t I did when I kissed him. I ran my hands through his hair as I felt his hands go dr. to my thigh lifting me up. I wrapped my arms around his neck as my legs held his hips.

His lips pressed against my neck nibbling making me moan-such a foreign sound. I felt him walking to the bed sitting on it pulling back from the kiss. I felt my heart beating quickly as I looked at him. His thumb dragged along my lips pulling my bottom one down.

"Sorry I just needed to kiss you-"

"I needed that to," I interrupted him, "More then I realized I did," I breathe feeling better and brighter.

I tried to move off of him, but he didn't let me go, "Please I just need to feel you,"

I bit my lip from laughing as he groaned hearing how that sounded. I giggled at him],"Alright we should talk about us and about how I am..." I trailed off

"Yeah," nodded Lorenzo, " Look when you sent me that first letter stating that you didn't want to be with me anymore. I knew that was a lie because I know my girlfriend and best friend. I've wanted to talk to you since you have been back but--"

"I kept shutting you out," I looked down

Lorenzo lifted my chin up, "When you have been coming back with the bruises, I knew something wasn't right. Did Mr. Nott do those to you?"

"Not all of them. Some were from the men..." I trailed off feeling tears in my eyes

Lorenzo pulled me down and I buried my face into his neck trying not to cry, "How many men?" he whispered

"Four," I mutter feeling my body shaking as his arms wrapped around me, "I feel like a whore," I cried into his shoulder

"You are not a whore. No matter if it was your choice or if it was not. You have zero choice in what happens to you," Lorenzo breathed turning me to the side so I sat on his lap cradled into his body, "You are not weak. You are strong. You have been through hell and back since you were four months old. Hell, since you were born. For fuckD's sake, you fought a troll in our first year an election d shrugged it off. The basilisk in our second nd tshrugged it off. A fucking killer in the third year. Eventually you will be able to shrug this off," he tucked my hair behind my ear, "You will always be mine because I love you and I will never think any different from you because you are so powerful Y/n Saiph Riddle,"

I looked up at him, "I'm sorry I didn't tell you about what happened, but I knew you'd try to get me out of it even if it meant your life,"

"Damn right," Lorenzo nodded, "Because I love you,"

"I hope you know I've been doing this because I love you,"

"I know." he smiled at me, "And I have talked with my mom about everything, and she came up with something. I will be at the Nott Mansion every single day all day long and if I am not allowed over. She will invite you over to our mansion for tea just to try to get you out of the house as much as possible all summer,"

"I can also go to the Malfoy mansion," I said, and he nodded, "So what does this mean for us,"

"We are back to being a secret of course-Hi midnight- I am not letting you slip away from me so easily," he smiled at me as Midnight cuddled onto his shoulder, "You are forever my girlfriend and hopefully in the future my wife after we get rid of him" he said devilishly

I smiled at him and laughed. He smiled, "There it is. My favorite smile," he held me tightly.

"I'm starving,"

"Then let's go eat,"

I got off of him as Midnight settled into the pillow. I walked to my bathroom looking at my makeup and touching it up. He leaned on the door looking at me, "I know the makeup is only for your bruises but--"

"It's not me, "I finished his sentence, and he nodded, "I hate wearing this much makeup. My hair being blonde and straight. I want to be myself again,"

"I know," he wrapped his arms around my waist placing his head on my shoulder. He kissed my birthmark repeatedly. He looked up and saw my bag of weed. I explained to him how I started smoking to numb the pain. I know understand why Theodore smokes so much.

"Shall we go to dinner," I turned around to face him placing my hands on his chest.

"Who will know about our secret?" he asked

"Our friends, your mom, my aunt and uncle and my brothers. That's all. I trust that they wont say anything," I spoke

"Okay,"

We headed out of my dorm and saw our friend group standing outside my door," Really? Nosey much?" I scoffed walking past Theodore and Draco who were trying to listen to the door. I wrapped my arm around Daphne's shoulder bringing her to walk with me. Pansy and Tracey joined us. I felt like myself with my girls again. Lauryn and Astoria walked behind us talking.

"We are finally complete again," Daphne said lifting up her middle finger with the tattoo. We all linked our tattoos.

Mattheo had explained everything to the rest of our friends when they came to visit me in the hospital. I'm thankful he did because I couldn't do it twice. We walked past Professor McGonagall who looked at me and a small smile placed on her lips. I have talked to her on Wednesdays, and she kept telling me to reach out, so I know that she is happy I am with my friends again.
