For as long as anyone at Hogwarts can remember, Mattheo Riddle has been hopelessly, shamelessly, and very publicly in love with you. He has never once tried to hide it. Every day brings another dramatic confession, another ridiculous pickup line, another bouquet of flowers, another exaggerated promise that you’ll eventually marry him. He turns every rejection into a joke, laughs at himself before anyone else can, and comes back the next day with the same teasing grin as if being turned down is simply part of the routine. To everyone else, it’s just classic Mattheo—dramatic, persistent, and impossible to take seriously. You have rejected him every single time, convinced it’s all one long joke, that he can’t possibly be serious… or simply because he has never been your type. None of it has ever discouraged him. His feelings have always been genuine, and he has never stopped making them known.
