Darkness // Tom Riddle // Voldemort // (2.2)

Slytherin

1st year

'Tallulah malfoy. Slytherin!' the sorting hat called before it even touched her head. She smiled smugly as she moved to the green robed table.

'Thomas riddle' was called and the hat pondered. Debated a moment before deciding slytherin. He sat next to lula she smiled over at him.

'Lula,' she said sticking out a hand

'Tom.' He told her.

'You and me are going to be friends. I can feel it.' She told him excitedly.

'Friends?' He questioned

'Yeah. The best of friends. What classes are you most excited for? I think potions or defense against the dark arts. Ive been doing potions for years.' Lula told him ignoring dumbeldor as he gave the yearly speech. 'I don't have a green thumb so I think herbology is going to be STRUGGLE!" she exclaimed and a few prefects shushed her, she shushed them back laughing. 'My parents hired me and my brother lucius a tutor ive been practicing magic for years so dont worry if youre not as good as me.' She teased bumping him with her shoulder. 'I can teach you if youre not good too.' Lula informed him grabbing a roll from the basket as dumbeldor went on and on.

'Youre a strange one arent you?' Tom questioned

'Just as strange as everyone else i assume,' she informed him with a laugh

'Malfoy? I know that name...' tom said

'Its an old stupid name. My brother and i are the fun ones. Ive never heard of Riddle before though. Who are your parents?' Lula questioned pilling mashed sweet potatoes with marshmallows onto her plate as well.

'I dont have any,' he told her softly

'Any what?'

'Parents' he clarified and she stopped eating.

'Oh. Well my parents are shit so its probably for the best,' she told him taking a big bite of her potatoes. 'These are good,' she informed him. He smiled over at her and that was the beginning of the end.
