Never again (Tom Riddle x reader)

Chapter 17

Once his hand finally left my mouth I inhaled a deep breath, ''Was that necessary?'' I whispered furiously as I pushed him away from me, ''I just did you a favour.'' He snapped back, ''Did I ask for your help?'' I asked, I picked up my bag from the floor, the bell rang, and people stated coming in to the library, I turned to leave, but Tom followed me, ''I want know where is this hatred towards me is coming from?'' he asked, ''Oh, you must be joking.'' I mumbled, I pulled my satchel closer to me and pulled myself through the swarm of people.

The class before lunch finally ended and I made my way to the Great Hall, I looked for Penelope and sat down next to her, ''Hey, what's up?'' I asked as I poured myself some tea, ''Not much, what about you?'' she asked back as she looked around as if looking for somebody, ''Same, are you looking for somebody?'' I asked and took a sip of my tea, ''Oh, no I'm not.'' Penelope replied and looked down at her food, ''I want to tell you a secret.'' She said in a hushed voice, ''Yeah, sure tell me.'' I said back, ''I sent Tom a note, I wrote that we needed to have a one-on-one meeting about some head boy/girl things, but actually I want to tell him that I have feelings for him.'' She said with a deep blush on her cheeks, ''Oh, how exciting.'' I said back smiling, ''But aren't you scared that you know, he maybe doesn't feel the same way as you do?'' I asked, ''That is why I wanted to ask you, maybe you could get me ready, you know, do my make-up and my hair and pick out some nice clothes.'' She said as she looked down, ''Why? You are a natural beauty.'' I said as I swirled a lock of her hair, ''Are you kidding me? I look like a pig, people bully me for it, please help me.'' She said as she rolled her eyes, she looked desperate and sad, I smiled, ''Sure, I'll help you.'' I said as I looked at the food on the table in front of us, ''Thank you, you're the best.'' She said side hugging me, I smiled and patted her arm, the position was making me deeply uncomfortable, suddenly she pushed away from me and turned to her plate, I looked at the entrance of the Great hall, Riddle with his slaves just came in and were walking our way.

''Fancy meeting you here, ladies.'' Antonin said smiling at me, I smiled back, ''Can we join yo-'' ''Of course you can join us.'' Penelope irrupted Malfoy as she looked at Riddle with flushed cheeks as Riddle with an annoyed look was looking at Antonin who was still looking at me, suddenly Antonin stopped smiling and looked away from me, and Riddle smirked, with that the four of them sat down in front of us, Tom in front of me, I looked at him irritated, and he staired back at me as if sarcastically asking me if I'm alright, dick, I decided to be the bigger person and look away.

For a second, I zoomed out, Penelope will be so heart broken, it's going to be even sadder than now, and to be honest it's already so, so sad. But not my place, I shouldn't judge anybody's decisions except my own. I let out a long breath and stood up, I smiled at Penelope, once she will meet a guy who treats her like she should be treated, I smiled, ''I'll see you later missy.'' I said sassily at her and walked to my next class, 'The full and completed history of Magic.' It said on my schedule, classroom 111 'what a nice number' I thought as my leather loafer heel hit the floor and made a klicky sound, I felt so confident, the feeling was so good.

I made it to the classroom 111 and knocked on the door a sound came from the other side of the door, ''Come in please'' I put my hand on the handle and it was metal and freezing against my skin and I immediately got goosebumps from the coldness and shivered, 'Why so cold?' I thought and pushed the heavy wooden door.

A ghost man was sitting by the teacher's desk. I smiled and went inside, ''I just wanted to introduce myself before class, my name is Y/N I just transferred from Beauxbatons.'' I said and smiled slightly, ''I'm mr. Binns.'' The ghost said also smiling, the room was really, really cold. ''How nice that you introduced yourself. I can feel that you're going to be and exceptional student in my class.'' He said still smiling and with his hand motioned to the seats, I went to the right back side of the class room, sat down and took out my book and a notepad with a pen out of my satchel. Once the bell rang the room started filling with students.
