CHAPTER 4

You woke up at around 6:30 the next morning, feeling replenished. Looking around the common room, taking in the feeling of comfort, then looking at Matteo, who was still sleeping on your lap.

"Your really cute when you sleep, y'know" you say as he opens his eyes.

He gives you a smile that you had never seen on anyone before, not even your family or boyfriend. It was one of love and caring.

Before you knew it you heard footsteps coming from the boys dormitories. It was Theo. You scrambled to get up and walked across the room, away from Matteo.

"What are you doing down here this early in the morning?" He asked, clearly tired from the night before.

"Am I not allowed to stroll about my house's common room? I basically live here" You say, snarky but demanding.

"Don't give me that tone, you know what happens when you get mad at me. What happened last time, huh?" Theo said threateningly.

You flinched, walking away from him towards the wall.

"Please leave me be, I didn't do anything wrong" you say as tears start to form in your eyes.

"I'll only ask you one more time, what were you doing down here this early in the morning?" He yells walking towards you.

"I told you, I wasn't doing anything" you say trying to choke back your tears.

"Lies only get you further away from the truth, you don't trust me enough to tell the truth do you? You have lost faith in your own caring, loving boyfriend!" He screams at you, then slaps you hard across the face.

Matteo can't take him hurting you anymore, he gets up from the couch and starts racing towards Theo.

"Now I know why she insists that I'm bad for her, why she hasn't talked to me in 2 months! You've been keeping her away, threatening her at her every move!" Matteo yells in Theo's face.

You try to intervene but get shoved out of the way by Theo.

"Stay out of this Y/N!" Matteo yells.

You refuse "I can't let you get hurt Matteo! I love you!" You let it slip through your mouth without even realizing it, then regretting your decision of words, you cower into a corner.

Theo starts towards you, readying his hand to slap you again. Just then Matteo grabs him by his hair and drags him away from you, then drops him on the floor punching his face over and over again until his hands are sore. He stops, knowing what he has done, leaving Theo on the floor, his nose bleeding and broken. You were too scared to do anything but cry on the floor in the corner of the common room.
