Y/n x Tom Riddle

Author's POV
—————————————————————————

Professor Snape asked a question and looked around. He picked the new girl.

"Miss Y/n, we know that you came from homeschool and we are not sure how smart you are for this class. Can you answer my question on the board?"

Y/n nodded and looked at the board, she narrowed her eyes and tried to read the question.

"What's one side effect of using Pepperup Potion?" whispered Y/n the question to herself.

She was shaking her leg. Professor Snape always scared her. He was giving dark and scary energy.

Y/n became even more anxious when she heard whispers. She could not catch up with the exact sentences that others were saying, but heard her name in whispers.

"Enough whispers!" shouted Professor Snape and looked at Y/n, "answer the question, miss."

"It has a side effect of making steam come out the drinker's ears" Y/n answered and did not know what to do next.

"Okay miss, sit down. That's right." Snape said and started his lecture.

Whispers did not stop. Pansy and her other friends were whispering about her. This was so uncomfortable for Y/n.

After class Y/n just walked out of class without even talking with those girls. She did not want to ruin her day with a nonsense argument.

But the girls did not let her alone. They walked behind her after class and talked loud so she could hear that Pansy was talking about her.

"So the new girl is trying to show that she is smart by answering only one question." Pansy smiled and laughed with her friends.

Y/n still ignored them and continued walking until one of the annoying girls ran in front of her and stopped her.

"What do you want?" Y/n could not stand them anymore.

"Look at this girl. Who are you?" One of the girls spoke.

"I will always be better. So stop showing smartness and prettiness here. I'm more beautiful than you, I'm smarter than you, and so more so forth. I am the queen here. Who are you?" Pansy was upset.

"I'm not trying to show up. I just answered to one question. What's your problem?" Y/n is annoyed by them. They were ruining her day.

"Oh, I am Pansy. I'm everything here! And you are nothing. So skinny so ugly. Just stay away from me." Pansy said and walked away.

"You came to me and started arguing! It's all you!" Yelled Y/n at them and went to lunch.

"Bunch of morons whose brain can't function normally," whispered Y/n to herself and continued walking.

The next day she found a green substance on her breakfast.

"Who put a spell on my food?" Y/n looked at others. The answer was obvious, it was Pansy.

"You will regret coming here. Go back to your homeschool and be alone!" Pansy was being rude and annoying.

Later when Y/n and Tom were hanging out, Tom noticed that Y/n was not in the mood.

"Hey darling, did you get mad at me for calling you a dummy?" Tom usually called Y/n funny names. But they always did that to each other, so Y/n was cool with that. She even enjoyed that.

"No, no. It's not that. I'm totally fine. I guess I'm just tired. I should better get going to bed."

They kissed goodbye and Y/n went to her dorm. She found spiders all over her room. She got scared and yelled. The spiders were everywhere, they were bigger than her hands and moving very fast. They were on her bed, on her desk, and in her closet.

She ran away back to Slytherin's common room. Tom was still there. He immediately hugged her and tried to calm her down.

Y/n was scared of spiders since she got attacked by one, as big as a one-floor building. She was crying on Tom's shoulder. The nightmare from her childhood was in her mind. She was shaking and crying.

Things got worse. She could not breathe properly. Her eyes were panicked and red from crying. Her hands pressed against her chest. As she strained to breathe, she made horrible whistling sounds. She was trying to inhale but failing to do so.

Y/n was having an asthma attack. She had asthma from childhood. Tom knew about that and always supported her.

Tom also saw what was happening and got panicked. He never saw Y/n like this. She usually pulled out her inhaler, inhaled some air and everything became better.

But now was different. Y/n's inflamed breathing tubes were starting to squeeze shut and fill with mucus. Not only was fresh air not getting in, but old air was trapped in her lung.

"Where is your inhaler?" Tom asked with a panicked voice. He could not find an inhaler in any of Y/n's pockets.

Y/n barely managed to show the stairs with her hand. Tom understood that she left her stuff at her dorm.

Tom ran to her dorm and took her backpack lying on the floor. He immediately threw all the notebooks and books out of a backpack. He finally found an EpiPen.

He ran back to Y/n and was able to assist her. After a few minutes, her blue lips turned to rose and her skin got back its color.

"Y/n, tell me who did this to you? I know that there is someone who filled your room with spiders." Tom hold Y/n's hand and looked at her.

"It is Pansy. She, she annoys me and picks on me." Y/n said with a low voice and looked at Tom.

"I will be right back." He said and ran away. He, of course, went to find Pansy.

"Pansy? Where are you?" Tom yelled and waited for Pansy to come out from her dorm.

"I'm here." Pansy smiled and wanted to hug Tom, but he backed up.

"How dare you bully my girlfriend?" Tom was mad at her. He was almost yelling. From his loud voice, other students came.

"What are you talking about?" Pansy tried to show that she is confused.

"I am talking about Y/n! How dare you talk bad about her and also fill her room with spiders." Tom was furious. "If you do not apologize to her, I will either kill you or tell Professor and get you expelled." Tom waited for Pansy's response.

"I... I will apologize." Pansy was scared and ashamed. Everyone was whispering about her.

Pansy apologized to Y/n. Surprisingly Y/n forgives her. She did not want to hold a feud with her.

At the end of the day, Tom hugged her tight and said, "You should have informed me sooner. You know I will always protect you."

Y/n smiled and answered, "I know, thanks, Tom."

"Only I can pick on you, no one, only me." He kissed her forehead and they spent the night cuddling.
