"My name is Mattheo Riddle."

I look at this beautiful girl sitting next to me in the Astronomy Tower and smile slightly

"I'm finally safe here at Hogwarts."

I sigh and look off into the distance

"At least I was."

And here I'm pouring my heart out to this stranger girl.

I've never done this before but it actually feels... good... to finally say out loud what's going on in my life.

I tell her that my father is Lord Voldemort himself, that he recently forced me to become a Death Eater, how he tortures me with the Cruciatus Curse if I don't complete a mission to his satisfaction... I tell her that my father is planning something very big and sinister.

I even tell her about every single scar on my body and about my friends who share a similar fate to me.

I lean against the wall, take a deep breath and look again at this adorable girl who just seems to be listening to me, again a slight smile appears on my lips.

"But enough about me, what's your name, Princess?"
