a Potter and a Riddle <3

Threats

—COMMON ROOM—

It had been a couple of weeks since Chloe and Toms little duel. He had been ignoring her for quite some time. She didn't mind it though, she wasn't really trying to be besties with lord Voldemort's son, and she had more important things to think about considering It was nearly CHRISTMASSSS. She was beyond ecstatic. She never really got excited for things but she loved christmas. There were only 3 things she loved in this world, Christmas, food, and reading. It was weird saying she loved things. Love was a weird concept. It grossed her out and was such an odd topic. She never thought she would fall in love, better yet have someone fall in love with her. Of course she loved people like her parents and relatives, however she wasn't in love and she never would be. 

She had the next few weeks planned out, the Yule ball in a few days, then she was staying with the Malfoys for the first week, and her parents for the second. Of course her parents weren't the fondest of her staying with the Malfoys but all of her friends were going and she thought it would be pleasurable.

She was sitting in the common room with everyone else reading the book her father gave her for her birthday. It was a used potions book. At first she was very confused as to why she was getting a used potions book for her birthday but as she read more and more she fell in love. She learned how to brew powerful potions and special spells. Her father said it belonged to someone called the 'half blood prince' it was an odd name but so was Voldemort and if she dared question him she would end up dead in five seconds. Of course he was dead but history tended to repeat itself and he did come back to life like 4 times so she keeps one eye open at all times.

"CHLOE"

She flinched and looked up from her book.

"Merlin get your head out of that stupid potions book and pay attention"

Oliver had began bugging her more and more lately.

"Sorry. What are we talking about?"

"The Yule hall"

Delani interjected

"You haven't forgotten have you?"

"No of course not, I've gotten my dress picked out and everything!"

"Well then who's your date?"

Shit

"Um...."

Tom scoffed

"Shut it Riddle"

He was about to say something when oliver interrupted 

"You could always come with me. As friends of course."

"Spectacular."

"Ugh everyone has a date except for me!"

Jack was sitting by the fireplace with his hands in his head tugging at his hair

"Calm down I'm sure there are plenty of girls looking for a date"

Delani tried to help

Suddenly this face dropped

"Right.. I'm gonna go"

And with that he stormed out the common room to his dorm

"Did I say something? Delani asked"

Everyone shrugged

—POTIONS—

She walked into potions. It quickly became one of her favorite classes. She could use the book she had been given for this class. Of course naturally Slughorn adored her as well as Riddle.
