“how does this look?" you say showing off your new white angel dress to pansy, “like your trying too hard" pansy said with an eye roll while passing you a red velvet dress with a slit in the middle, you roll your eyes and change into the dress and come out looking gorgeous, the dress clung to all your curves showing off your natural beauty. “now let me do your make up" Bellatrix said while holding her makeup brush, she had given you black wings and green eyeshadow “amazing Bella I can’t believe you know how to do this" you say hugging both girls and heading out to see Tom waiting dressed in his black tuxedo, looking like he’d rather be anywhere else.
“Took you long enough” Tom said while staring at his watch not even sparing a glance at your appearance, making your heart ache, ignoring the pain of rejection you hold your head up high and walk past Tom ignoring his hand causing tom to finally look at you, far be it he was more annoyed and angered at your disrespect but he was still looking at you.
You turned around after noticing the lack of footsteps to see Tom had stayed rooted to his place “what’s wrong riddle?” you say slowly walking back towards him, he looked away and you could clearly see a hint of a blush start to form on his cheeks “nothing I was just taken aback by what you were wearing, you do realise this is a formal party not a club “ he says staring at the quite revealing dress “there’s nothing wrong with this dress and I quite like it, I might even be able to find a real boy friend at this rate “ you say winking at Tom and turning back around to continue walking to the party when Tom grabbed your hand “as slug horn held his end of the bargain it is only fair I do the same” there was something hidden in Tom’s eyes that you couldn’t place but it was gone before you could get a closer look.
“Ah here you are ‘my boy, we were just talking about you and how the slug club is coming along" slug horn said while whisking Tom away from you to make him join his little group causing you to be left alone once more “great I invited Tom so this wouldn’t happen” you mumbled to your self as you grab some punch, after tasting the revolting punch you decided to place some Firewhiskey into the punch to add a bit of flavour and lighten the mood a little bit.
After what felt like hours the party seemed to have lighten up making you sigh in relief you couldn’t handle another lame party not after the last one almost sent you to sleep, you stand in the corner closest to the exit “hey why are you all alone?” Avery said while trying to keep himself balanced “Tom ditched me for some stuck up professors” you say clearly annoyed causing Avery to back off a little bit and then grab you by the arm and force you to dance with him, the music was playing and you were swaying with the beat, you could Barely stand as you’d managed to drink so much spiked punch from your anger that you were starting to see double “hey are you ok y/n?, you don’t look good” Avery said after the dance had ended and you began to sit down, in your drunken state you had managed to miss the chair entirely causing you to erupt in laughter, making Avery join in.
Tom was less than pleased when slug horn dragged him away from you as he felt like you’d get into something you couldn’t get out off without him so he sent everyone warning glares if they came some what close to you, after all you were his.
Tom was becoming rather good at fixing his broken fingers to the point he didn’t need a wand to achieve it, slug horn was jabbering on about the bet he was having with Dumbledore and how he knew tom and you would be a perfect match, that was when Tom couldn’t take it, he was well aware of what his Amortentia was and he was capable of making his own mind up, he never liked someone telling him who he was or who he should love, that was for him and him alone to do. Scoffing to himself he bid slug horn and the other professors good day and went off to find you when he heard a huge bang from across from him, he knew without a doubt that it was you, he didn’t even need to glance in that direction as you’d always had a tendency to fall when drunk and by the looks of things everyone was close to passing out.
“you realise I am a prefect right?” Tom said once he saw you, still laughing with Avery but stared blankly at riddle almost trying to think of something to say “you couldn’t possibly know it was me who spiked the punch" you say but with toms eye brow raised you smack your mouth causing Avery to look at you “that was obvious as you always make a mess of things" Tom said while helping you on your feet “but if I wasn’t here to make the mess then you wouldn’t have anything to clean up" you say while slurring your words, Tom rolls his eyes and you proceed to pass out on him earning a sigh from tom and a laugh from Avery “you know if I wasn’t after Rosie I might have considered y/n" Avery said lost in thought clearly unaware of the death glare Tom was giving him “she is mine! got that Avery?” Tom snarled at him causing Avery to cower at Tom almost as if he was ten times his size, with a sinister smile Tom carried you back to his room as he didn’t want to be seen by pansy or Bellatrix with a drunken girl that wouldn’t go well, so he decided it was best for you to stay in his room, Tom laid next to you trying not to touch you as the mere thought of it made his skin burn.
