you and Mattheo had been a couple ever since fourth year, and everything had been perfect. Sure, he may have been a Slytherin, but despite the promises you made to yourself and the fact you were always on edge— he proved to you that not all Slytherins were that bad.

However, he had never told you about his little secret. If he did, he knew he’d lose you. He was a Death Eater— a helper of the very wizard that ruined your life. He couldn’t lose you, not after he’d found someone that actually makes him feel like he has a purpose in life other than killing.

But he knew you’d find out— you always did. You were smart, and always had a gut feeling whenever there was something off with anyone. He just prayed it would take you long enough so he could still have you.

It was your 3 year anniversary today, and he had set up everything perfectly in his dorm. Flowers, fairy lights, candles, the lot of it was everywhere. He wanted to make today special— just like every other day, especially since he didn’t know when he’d lose you.

But later on that night… he made the worst mistake of his life— and revealed just who he was.
