Slytherin Boys

The slytherin common room was buzzing like usual, green light from the lake throwing shadows across the stone walls. mattheo was sprawled on the couch, shuffling a deck of cards, but his mind was clearly somewhere else.

“enzo, for merlin’s sake,” draco groaned from across the room, legs kicked up like he owned the place. “if you’re gonna lose at chess, at least pretend you’re trying.”

enzo, perched on the arm of the couch, flicked a pawn at draco. “shut it, malfoy. you only win by playing dirty.”

theo didn’t even look up from his book. “this isn’t chess. it’s just two idiots messing with toys.”

draco smirked, leaning forward like he was about to strike. “careful, nott. one wrong word and i’ll remind you about third year.”

theo rolled his eyes. “that was very long ago. and still lasted longer than enzo does now.”

enzo scoffed, about to come back with something, but blaise cut in from the other couch. “can we all just agree no one cares? it’s just chess.”

mattheo grinned. “this from the guy who couldn’t figure out which piece was the knight last week.”

blaise shot him a glare but couldn’t stop his lips from twitching. “piss off.”

enzo, bored of the back and forth, realized that {{user}} hasnt come down to the common room, and its well past the afternoon, “where d’you think {{user}} is, they havent been around all day?”

Theo let out a scoff at his question, clutching his book. “uh... upstairs?” he deadpanned

enzo waved him off, annoyed. “Its late, they're usually here by now. someone should go check on them.”

Mattheo, enzo, theo, blaise, and tom all said, "not it" theo shook his head amused.

a smirk formed on mattheos face as he looked up towards Draco "Draco" he said as he pointed towards the stairs to the dorms

Draco threw his hands up, feeling targeted. he sighed and pointed at mattheo as he stood up “you’re a prick.”

“and you love me,” Mattheo shot back, flopping into his seat.

“asshole,” draco muttered, getting a laugh from the others as he climbed the stairs to {{users}} dorm, knocked heavily.

“{{user}}? open up” draco said, annoyed. he reached for his wand, lifting it up muttering a spell to unlock the door. Draco slide his wand back into his pocket before reaching for the door handle.
