Chapter 14.
╚═══════

  Sore heads seem to be abundant the next day around Hogwarts.

  Mattheo and Lorenzo groan loudly as they wake up, both of them having passed out on the floor with a bucket to share between them. The alcohol in their systems making them feel near dead.

  "Alcohol is not my friend" Lorenzo mutters, his face is smushed half on the floor.

  Lorenzo's first experience drinking seems to have been a bad one. His friends at each others throats, and now the hangover from hell.

  "What the fuck happened to Theodore last night?" Mattheo wonders. He isn't in the dorm with them, and Mattheo cannot remember Theo coming back with them.

  "He's probably still making out with that girl in the Room of Requirement. They didn't come up for air all night" Lorenzo feels another wave of sickness coming along. "How do people attend classes after the party, I feel like I want to die" Lorenzo tells Mattheo.

  "Yeah, I pretty much feel like that anyways" Mattheo hates himself for what he was doing last night.

  "I'd hate to be you right now" Lorenzo confirms. "Me and Hera might be in an argument right now, but what you and Artemis did last night was just plain unhealthy" Lorenzo tells Mattheo.

  "Thanks for the support, Enzo" Mattheo snaps at Lorenzo. And his sudden burst of anger is followed by a wave of sickness.

  "I warned you it was a bad idea last night" Lorenzo defends himself. "One of you may have won your little tiff last night, but the loser was going to get hurt" Lorenzo tells Mattheo.

  Mattheo probably would have ripped Tom's head off of Artemis had kissed him, he wouldn't have cared if the whole school was there to watch.

  "Imelda is very lucky she didn't get her block knocked off, and very unlucky that she had to kiss you" Lorenzo jokes.

  Mattheo pushes Lorenzo, and Lorenzo laughs at he just rolls along the carpet of their dorm room.

"Bells wouldn't have gone that far" Mattheo isn't completely sure of that as he says it, Artemis can be violent when she needs to be.

"Mate, I'd stop with that" Lorenzo advises Mattheo. "The nickname. If you want to stop stoking the fires then cute nicknames have to stop" Lorenzo tells Mattheo.

"Shit" Mattheo hadn't even considered it as a cutesy couple thing. He's called her that since their first day of first year.

  "Are you sure that you don't want to just tell her everything?" Lorenzo hates seeing what this is doing to Mattheo, and last night was just embarrassing for everyone involved.

  Mattheo sniffs in defiance. "No, I don't want to tell her Enzo" Mattheo decides. "If I tell her now then it could make her hate Delphini as well, and they're friends" Mattheo informs Lorenzo. "And let's face it, even if me and Artemis got together, I would have messed it up eventually".

  "That's not true" Lorenzo tells Mattheo.

  "It is" Mattheo tells Lorenzo. "C'mon you drunken arsehole, it's time to get ready for classes" Mattheo doesn't feel like he has the will to face the rest of the day ahead of him, but not attending classes today would look suspicious.
