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

Line up Hufflepuffs

'I have potions.'

'I have charms'

'I will miss you'

'Ill miss you more'

'Ill miss you most'

'Ill miss you the mostest-'

'We get it!' Lula shouted. 'Get the fuck out of my class!' they scurried off, 'God was i like that with Tom?' Lula questioned waving a hand and slamming the door closed.

'You were just as annoying. I assure you,' severus teased.

'one, Shut up,' lula said laughing. 'two,' she raised her fingers as she spoke. 'it was a rhetorical question and three, LIAR!' lula declared laughing.

'Horace has the children or the girls i should say drooling over love potions,' lula said with a laugh.

'Love potion?' severus questioned putting down his quill, he was grading Goyles work, it highly disappointing.

'Yep its sad really. Trying to bottle up the effects of love.'

'What do you smell when you...'

'I havent been near it since i was in school.' lula informed him 'but I know it would smell like tom still.' She said happily.

'of course,' severus agreed a pain look onh is face he tried to hide.

*********

'Did you-'

'Yes draco is testing it out now.' Lula assured. 'Dont worry sevy. Everything is right on track, nothing is going to stop us soon enough... soon enough.' She kissed his cheek before walking off. 'Draco!' lula called.

'It was sent Aunt lula.' Draco told her.

'Good boy,' she turned back to severus. 'see sevy, nothing to worry about.' Severus nodded stiffly before turning back to the classroom, children were already starting to pile in.

'I cant believe we lost to Gryffindor!' lula exclaimed. 'Gryffindor! Of all the houses...' she looked disapprovingly to the students. 'Do better!' severus didn't like teaching with lula. She was in charge and did as she wanted, taught how he wanted and skipped over the things she didn't care for. She taught the slytherins more and the gryffindors less. She had favorites and everyone knew it. The slytherins adored her but everyone else tried to stay out of the way of lula Malfoy. For she was a force, a white haired force of agression and power and angst. The lula severus knew and loved as fading, being replaced by Voldemorts perfect version of lula. She was changing, adapting. She loved this new person she was becoming, Severus feared he wouldn't be able to pull her back from the edge. That this war would be her downfall and he wouldn't be able to stop it. Wouldn't be able to save her. you cant save someone that doesn't want saving and lula Malfoy was no damsel in distress she was a powerful witch filled with dark magic, she was possibly stronger than Voldemort himself but for now she had a cap on her agression. An outlet and a mission.

'You... look... tense.' Lula noted walking her fingers along severus thigh. 'Dont worry' she coed giving his thigh a squeeze 'everything is going to be fine' she whispered in his ear kissing his cheek. 'Everything goes according to plan.' She turned forward as the class walked in. 'Lets get started. Slytherins, lets do a little practice, line up hufflepuffs!' lula declared.
