here stood a small boy looking out of the window watching as the storm outside subsided “curious isn’t it" the boy jumped at the sudden noise “who are you?” the boy asked while looking at his rock collection on the windowsill “my names professor Albus Wilfred Dumbledore and I believe your name is Tom Marvolo riddle, is it not?” the boy looked stunned at the man, for the first time he had actually looked at him and he noticed how strange he really was, dressed head to toe in a purple dress robe and wearing a pointy hat “you can do things can’t you tom, things other children can’t” Dumbledore stared at the boy who was now looking towards his wardrobe “I can make people hurt without touching them, make animals do what ever I want without training them, make things move just by thinking about it" just as he had said that the wardrobe began to burst into flames catching Dumbledore off guard, Dumbledore sighed and put the wardrobe out with a flick of the wrist “causing harm to others will not be tolerated at Hogwarts, tom" Dumbledore spoke down to the boy who was becoming more angrier by the second, he thought he was the only one special enough to do the things he did but here this man was telling him that there was hundreds of children just like him, with a scowl tom nodded and Dumbledore left the room.
“so did you get that?" you said while snapping your fingers infront of tom causing tom to reawaken from his memories “your the most annoying person I know" you laugh as tom walked out of the common room with you following “so the map says he’s in his office right now, probably marking papers, he’s so boring" you said while holding the marauders map making tom stare at you in disbelief “where did you get that? Can it see everyone’s whereabouts?” you smirk at Tom “Well yeah that’s the purpose of the map but after it told me you were in the library for the last week and I couldn’t find you, I might be wrong about it” Tom rolled his eyes and took the map from you only for the ink to vanish making you laugh like a mad man waking some of the portraits “you’ll wake half of the castle if you don’t be quiet, how do you get this thing to work" Tom said quietly but loud enough for you to know he was scolding you “I don’t think you need to know that information” you say while skipping down the corridor not having a care in the world “so what’s the plan then?” this got you to stop and turn to him staring at him “I knew you weren’t listening to me” you say while placing your finger on his chest “I tuned you out” Tom said while moving aside so you weren’t touching him “I said we were going to throw a stink bomb into his office while he’s working” tom rolled his eyes at your childish behaviour “so why did you need me with you?” Tom said with his eye brow raised almost ready to go on a rant about how his time was worth more than a silly prank “Well, I haven’t seen you in a week, I thought it would be fun to do something other than read books all day”  Tom looked as if he was uncertain on what to say clearly annoyed at the fact you didn’t really need him but in awe about you wanting him around as most people don’t want him unless they see a use for him like power or knowledge but with you, he couldn’t quite place where you belong in that scenario, he didn’t even notice when you began to poke him to wake him from his thoughts “finally, I was thinking I might have to kiss you to wake you from your slumber” you say referring to your favourite book which caused tom to look horrified not only from the thought of you kissing him but the fact he knew the reference “now on the count of three throw your stink bomb into the room.. one... two... three" you open the door and both you and Tom throw a stink bomb into professor Dumbledore’s class room.
After a few seconds you and Tom walk back towards the common room extremely happy with the fact Dumbledore had not seen you both, but you were yet to realize that Dumbledore had a pet who saw almost everything when it came to mischief.
“I wonder what face he made when he smelt it” you say while laying your head on Tom’s shoulder, Tom seemed less annoyed at the fact you were touching him and continued to walk past Fawkes, knowing full well that the phoenix belonged to Dumbledore “Well if I hadn’t dragged you away, you might have seen it along with a years worth of detention” Tom said smugly while watching you slowly fall asleep “you realise you can’t always fall asleep on me" you smirk at Tom but find it extremely hard not to close your eyes, his sent always made you feel safe and warm making you relax and fall asleep. Tom huffed as you started to weigh him down, he decided once again that it was best for you to be in his room as he had kicked malfoy out the first day of school giving him the whole room.
Tom laid you on the bed, you were like a sleeping angel not a sound came from you almost as if you were dead, Tom smirked to him self while he stared at you “you really are foolish y/n, you left your self venerable and weak, I could easily attack you right now" Tom said while twirling his wand “don’t worry though, your mine and I will protect you" Tom said while rapping his arms around you and falling asleep to the smell of roses, making him smile, something he hadn’t done in a very long time.
