Chapter 40: "I wish I killed you years ago."

"Of course."

"Thank God." He sighs."I was afraid I'd have to pretend to like him"

"Of course not. I can't even pretend to like him anymore." I say to him rolling my eyes at the thought of it.

I look back outside to see that he was gone. I turned back to my friends as we continued our conversations eventually getting up to leave.

We walked down the snowy sidewalks, looking for a cafe to warm up in. Preferably one that wasn't bright and pink like the gift shop we were in previously.

We walked into a dark, chocolate brown themed cafe as we sat at a circular brown table.

"So when are you coming back to Hogwarts?" Pansy asks me as she gives me a concerned look.

"Uhm.. Well I'm not even sure I will come back-" I trail off as I look over around the corner and see Mattheo who was sitting with a short man dressed in a black suit who was chattering excitedly to him while he just shook his head, smiling.

I watched him closely wondering what he was doing in France while Pansy listed reasons on why I should go back to Hogwarts. Soon enough Mattheo eventually glanced at me as he furrowed his brows at me.

I give him a look as if asking, 'What are you doing here?' he chuckled a bit as he shook his head looking back at the short man sitting in front of him.

Did he not understand me, or why did he just shake his head?

"...and if you don't come back you won't be able to gaze at the stars anymore." She rambles on and on.

"I could just watch them from my window." I say.

"Well what about us?" Draco asks seriously.

"I'll always send letters..." I say.

"Letters? Seriously?" Pansy asks.

"Why can't you just move to London again? I get it, you lived here for most your life, but which one do you feel more at home at?"

"I-" I begin before our waitress interrupts.

"Sorry to interrupt but would any of you like some Coffee?" The waitress asks us.

"5 coffees please." Pansy says.

She nods her head as she walks away hurriedly writing on her note pad.

"So which one?" Theodore prompts me again as i sit there hopibg they would forget.

"I'd love to go back to London but-" I begin.

"But what?" Draco asks.

"Will you let me speak?" I say annoyed,"Its just calmer here. I don't constantly have to worry anymore."

"Seriously Bella?" Pansy asks.

"What now?" I say,"you asked me what I thought! I told you what I thought and now your trying to change my mind! Look, I'm not sure what I want right now, and who knows maybe I'll return tomorrow. But i need time to think about it. Its not something I can just decide overnight!"

"Fine." Pansy sighs.

We sit there in almost complete silence other than Draco, Theodore, and Blaise talking amongst themselves.

"Mattheo?" I say quietly suddenly looking at Mattheo Who was walking towards the door following the short man in a casual suit.

He just looks over at me and walks out the door, acting as if it were normal for him to suddenly be in London.

I watch as he leaves the cafe and walks down the sidewalks, until he dissapears around a corner.

I look around at the table to see that everybody was watching Blaise show everyone the watches features that I got him.
