I knew things would get worse over time. I had expected it. I guess since it wasn't an immediate change it slipped my mind. I was grateful that I had a semi-normal school life though. Now I know what you're wondering... "How is that even possible?"

*~*~*

"Harry you have to save her. You have to save my sister."

"Okay Ron. I get it. I'll try my best."

I was kind of glad the cave had collapsed. Ron was a hot head that normally didn't think before he acted. I had felt such a stong need to sort this out on my own. It wasn't my fault Ginny was gullible and it wasn't my fault she was now trapped in the chamber. It was, however, my responsibility to protect that diary. Or at least that's what I felt.

"Who are you?"

I tilted my head. "I'm Harry. Harry Potter. You're... You're Tom Riddle aren't you? You're the owner of the diary."

"And what of it? Come to destroy me?"

"Actually, I came to help you. I can't let you kill Ginny Weasley though." I shrugged and looked at Ginny.

"She your girlfriend or something?" Tom asked.

"No. She's just well known and her brother is just outside of the chamber. I can offer you an alternative person. On one condition though." I turned back to Tom.

"Well go on then." Tom frowned.

"You can't make yourself known. I mean you kind of have to go into hiding once you're free. If they know I let you go then it'll be a problem." I found myself stepping closer to him.

"Very well. I agree to your terms. Except I can't just give up so here's my suggestion." Tom smirked.

I didn't realise until it was too late. A spell hit me square in the chest and I toppled over and blacked out.

*~*~*

After that I never saw Tom again. I knew he was free because I had returned to the chamber and found the body of a different first year. No doubt he had drained their life force. My years at Hogwarts after that were average. Typical school fights, disapproving professor's and dangerous spells.

Why am I explaining all of this? Well it's simple really. That spell Tom threw at me really messed me up. I mean that in every sense of the word. Emotionally, mentally and physically. I have these strong senses of desire which leave me with major migraines and I end up being sick for days.

"Hey Harry! I found this outside."

"Huh? Hey Mione. What's that?" I leaned back.

"It was left on your doorstep. A gift of some sort from an anonymous person." Hermione bounced her eyebrows.

I rolled my eyes. "Well open it then. I know you want to."

Hermione ripped through the package. She handed me the box of chocolates and then a book. My eyes went wide and I sat up straight. Hermione shrugged and smiled.

"Are you sure this is not from you?" I asked.

"100%. Here's the note that was with it." Hermione handed me the card with a smile.
