I stared at my phone for hours. I must've called Mattheo fifty times. Then Anthony another twenty. I couldn't go to his dorm, and worry him if Mattheo was in fact lying. But knowing Mattheo, and how he was, my best bet was that Anthony was in the hospital wing right this every second, with no idea why my "friend" beat him up.
I waited and waited.
Nothing came.
Until...
Ant🤍
8:31 a.m
Ant🤍
Good morning gorgeous:)
Don't want to scare you, but im in the hospital wing right now. Someone put something in the water I keep by my side table.
Best bet, McLaggen. He knew I would beat his ass on the quidditch pitch.
Turned all my bones jelly.
But they're regrowing, I'll be fine in a day or two.
Why so many calls this morning? Are you alright?
Me
OH MY MERLIN
Yes I am fine I'm so sorry
Just has a bad dream and wanted to see you is all but
Holy shit that fucking sucks!!!
Can I come visit? I feel so bad for you
Ant🤍
Of course you can, my girl🤍
Me

On my way with breakfast.
I was furious. Shaking, really. I was going to kill Mattheo.
Mattheo.🚫
9:02 a.m
Me
REALLY
ALL HIS BONES INTO JELLY?!
ARE YOU MAD?!
Mattheo.🚫
I remember saying I didn't want to hear your voice this morning?
Me
You're so fucking lucky
He thinks Cormac McLaggen did this
I should fucking tell him it was you
How the fuck did you even get in his room?!
You're fucking sick.
Mattheo.🚫

Me
Yeah? And what is that message?
Hey don't touch yn, even though I have a girlfriend and she means nothing to me? Still don't touch!!
You're fucking repulsive and I hate you
I actually hate you
Mattheo.🚫
I love when you're mad
Me
Fuck off mattheo. Seriously. Leave me the fuck alone.
I spent the entire day in the hospital wing with Anthony. I couldn't shake the guilt I felt. Hearing him go on and on about how Cormac did this to him, and how he would get his revenge on game day. Knowing what I knew, I couldn't help but feel horrible. Just horrible.
I ignored my phone the whole day and just stayed there with him.
I ignored the many vibrations I felt from my phone, not caring what was going on. Until the calls and vibrations got too much.
I said my goodbyes to Anthony, told him I'd be back in the morning, and stepped out into the hall. Pulling my phone out, automatically wishing I hadn't...
Theo🤌🏼- twenty seven missed calls.
Dray🐇- fifteen missed calls.
Enzo🅱️- thirty two missed calls.
Mattheo.🚫- forty four missed calls.

Dray🐇

Me
You're scaring me
Panssss
Promise you'll come straight here?
Me
Yeah yeah I'm on my way?
I walked with an unusual quickness. They were scaring the shit out of me. I couldn't shake the feeling they were putting into my heart. I felt like everyone was staring at me. I kept trying to shake it, tell my self it was in my head. Until I realized it wasn't. Everyone was looking at me... the head shakes, eye rolls. I've seen it all before.
It was hard to bite my tongue. Not snap out on everyone. But I had no idea what I was snapping at, yet. So I deceived to save it.
Their faces, when I walked into the common room, was something I've experienced before. Something I knew was coming. My knees grew weak.
"Yn..." Pansy stood up.
"Just say it. Please." I stood, frozen.
"Sit. Please." Draco stood next to her pointing at the chair.
I knew it was bad, from the look on Mattheos face. He had a horrible poker face, always has. He could also never lie to me.
"Matt." My voice broke.
"Sit, yn." He still couldn't look at me.
I sat, on the armchair, looking at all of them sat shoulder to shoulder on the couch in front of me.
Theo reached behind him, and put a fresh print of the Daily Profit in front of me.
There was her face. My mum. Screaming. Screaming her head off. Being hauled away yet again, by the ministry.
The big headline read, "Madam Rosier Strikes Again."
My eyes blurred before I could read exactly what she had done. But it was nothing new for me.
"Yn, we're here for you." Enzo broke the silence.
"How many?" My words were broken.
"Fourteen." Draco spoke.
"Children." Theo added.
I sharply inhaled. My chest felt as if it was closing.
This was something I was used too, since I was a girl.
I was taken from her, at a very young age. Put into a home for girls, wizarding girls. Once I was of age, I was sent here.
My mum, was a horrible woman. She was tortured, mad. She wasn't always evil and clinically insane. They made her that way.
He did.
I never blamed Mattheo. Since he was the one who got me through all of my outbursts. I never held his family against him. He was different. Very different.
I hadn't read anything on my mum in months. I thought she had been caught, or killed. I was hoping at least.
My friends faces, all staring at me, waiting for the ball to drop. Waiting for my usual screams and episodes. I just didn't have it in me. I didn't.
I got up and walked away. Straight up the common room stairs. And to my room. I threw my self on my bed and let my, quite literally explode.
I heard the door open. It was Pansy. Her usual, "I am so so sorry." Hugging, cuddling.
I didn't feel, a fucking thing. Numb. Nothing but numb.
I drifted. At some point. I woke at 2:30 a.m exactly.
I wandered up to the astronomy tower. To just get fresh air.
Pansy to Mattheo.
2:45 a.m
Pansy
I just woke up
She's gone
Mattheo
Wtf do you mean she's gone Parkinson?
Pansy
She isn't here
I was hoping she came to you
Mattheo
Yeah right
She fucking hates me
Pansy
She doesn't
Mattheo
Find her right now Pansy
Pansy
How the fuck am I supposed to find her on my own?
Mattheo
Trust me
She doesn't want to see me right now
Probably went to that ravenclaw
Pansy
Right now you're all she wants to see idiot
You're the only one who knows how to fix her
Mattheo
She isn't a toy
She isn't broken
Pansy
Fuck you, Riddle.
Go fuck Astoria or something
Mattheo.
My door is open I'm literally waiting for yn to wander here
I know her.
Pansy
You know what
You're right
Don't hold your breath.
My feet brought me to the only place I knew. But I pulled out my phone before turning the corridor that lead to his room.
Mattheo.🚫
3:48 a.m
Me
Are you up?
I was shocked when the bubbles automatically appeared.
Mattheo.🚫
Yes.
Me
Are you alone?
Mattheo.🚫
Yes.
Me
Can I come by yours?
I don't know what else to do
Mattheo.🚫
My doors been open all night.

3:29 a.m
