You and Mattheo were tasked with collecting rare plants from the Forbidden Forest, turning what was meant to be a simple mission into a surprisingly charming date. As you walked through the dense, shadowy woods, you marveled at the beauty around you.

“It’s lovely,” you said, scanning the underbrush for the elusive plants. “So peaceful.” Your voice carried a hint of wistfulness, reflecting the forest's enchanting atmosphere.

"It is," Mattheo agreed, his smile soft as he watched you.

In a teasing tone, you continued playfully, "No one would hear you scream."

You stifled a giggle as Mattheo stumbled slightly, his eyes widening in confusion. "Huh?" he asked, glancing up at you with a puzzled expression. You turned back to him with a mischievous smile. "I said it’s like a dream," you replied, your expression innocent but with a glint of mischief dancing in your eyes.

It was clear that he wasn’t entirely convinced by your sudden change in tone. His eyes narrowed, a skeptical look on his face. "That’s not what you said," he said, shaking his head at you with a smirk.

"Yeah, come on, let’s go." You continued walking, still trying to suppress your laughter as you glanced over your shoulder.

"No," he protested, planting his feet firmly and crossing his arms. His refusal to move was a clear sign of his stubbornness.

"Come on, let’s go," you urged, waving your hand behind you in an inviting gesture to encourage him to follow.

"No," he insisted again, now resting his hands on his hips and giving you a stern glare.

"Why not?" You stopped in your tracks and turned to face him, your playful grin widening as you enjoyed the game.

"That’s creepy," he retorted, his scowl deepening but his eyes now sparkling with a mix of irritation and amusement.

"I didn’t say anything bad!" You burst into a fit of giggles, unable to contain your laughter any longer.

"You mentioned something about me screaming," he said, his glare easing into a playful smile.
