the familiar problem | m.r
You find a black cat wandering the Slytherin corridors. He’s handsome, bad-tempered and suspiciously fond of being scratched behind the ears. Naturally, you take pity on him. Unfortunately, your new feline shadow is Mattheo Riddle. A lost bet has left Hogwarts University’s most insufferable Slytherin trapped on four paws for forty-eight hours. You don’t discover his identity until Theodore Nott strolls past your lap and casually says, “Alright there, Riddle?” By then, Mattheo has already developed a deeply inconvenient weakness for your affection. Two nights, one spectacular furball incident involving Draco Malfoy, and an alarming number of head scratches later, Mattheo finally turns human again. There’s just one problem. He still wants to curl up beside you, put his head in your lap and fall asleep while you play with his hair. And asking for that as a six-foot-four man is considerably more humiliating than meowing. #MattheoRiddle #HogwartsUniversityAU #RomanticComedy #SlowBurn #MutualPining #MagicalMishap #CatTransformation #GrumpyXSunshine #TouchStarvedMMC #HiddenSoftSide #UnexpectedCuddles #SlytherinBoys #ForcedProximity #SecretIdentity #FriendsOfFriends
