"Ok what else do you want to know" Tom asked as he set down in front of Harry to eat breakfast "the orphanage can't be the only thing on your agenda, what else are you planning to do" Harry asked, he looked more comfortable here but didn't meet Tom's eyes he suspected it was because of their sleeping arrangement last night "I plan to give more rights and create a safe space for creatures and I want some old classes back in the school and bring back our festivals that the new generation of witches and wizards have forgotten" he finished "so basically you want to teach our world about our culture and tradition and stop blood superiority" Harry asked "well if you want to simplify it yes that's exactly what I want to do" Tom said finishing his breakfast and standing up "well I have a meeting to attend you can stay here, don't go out of the room without my permission, there are books in the shelves to pass time and Narcissa will be coming sometime to see your progress" he said as he make his way to the door "oh and if you need anything or want to ask me something call the house elf they will help" he said and left.
Harry stayed in his seat still processing everything that had happened since last night, the person how was suppose to kill him had helped him and the man who was suppose to help him didn't even care to find out what was happening to him and above all that everything he has ever been told about Voldemort's plans were not true and he is actually trying to save the wizarding world from muggles and the fact that he have said that the war was between him and Dumbledore was another thing that confused him, was it really between them and if it was, why were they involving other people in it he decided that he will ask the man when he see him again.
He decided to explore the room, the room was mixture of green and dark wood, their was a bookshelf with a window on the sides, on the other side were two doors one of them were for bathroom and other to closet he guessed, there was a seating area by the fireplace and a huge bed in the middle, it was a beautiful room. He looked through the bookshelf to find something to read and sit by the fireplace to read.
Today Voldemort was having a meeting with his elite to find a way to proceed now that the ministry had acknowledged him but he wasn't able to focus on that his mind keeps wandering of to a certain green eyed boy in this room and wondered what he would chose and what he was doing in his room, he knew that the boy will never stand by his side but his mind keep wandering to the possibility of that.
When the meeting ended he and Narcissa went to his room to find Harry asleep in front of the fireplace with a book open in his lap, Narcissa touched him, he wake up with a jolt "sorry, I must have fallen asleep while reading" he said rubbing sleep out of his eyes "it's alright dear" Narcissa said "now that you are awake let's do your check-up, lay down on the bed will you" she asked "ok" Harry said as he moved to bed "everything seem fine, your wounds are healing properly and the minor ones are healed" she said as she finished her check-up "continue taking your potion and I will check you again in a week" she said "do I really have to take all of them" Harry asked with a pout "sorry dear but you have to heal properly" Narcissa said patting his head fondly. Tom couldn't help but think that he was very cute, after checking his potions Narcissa left.
"Have you eaten dinner yet" Tom asked after some time Harry just shook his head not meeting his eyes, Tom ordered food from the house elf and sit down in front of Harry "you should eat all your meals and I told you to ask the house elf so don't give me that excuse" he asked "I forget , I am not use to ask for anything for myself" Harry said truthfully "alright then I shell eat with you so you won't have to ask" Tom said finally.
"so have you decided which side to choose yet" Tom asked changing subject, Harry sigh in defeat knowing he could not change his mind and asked the question that has been bothering him since there last discussion "what did you mean that the war is between you and Dumbledore" he asked taking him off guard "he never agreed with my ideas and presented them in a twisted way to the world that they would never agree on them and created his order to fight me" Tom said simply "ok" Harry said, then after some time said "I have decided to go neutral I never wanted to fight in the first place and was forced into it so now that I have a choice I'd rather stay neutral then to be a part of some made up war between you two" Harry said and started eating, Tom had expected that so he didn't say anything and with a nod started eating too.
He had other things in mind the school was only a month and half away and he still had to found a way to stop Harry from going to his muggle house every year, he could always send some minor death eater polijuiced as him but that can bring many questions before he was prepared to answer them but for now he left that thought for later discussion with him.
