Slytherin One Shots

T.M.R

- Tom Riddle x Y/N -

In the dark corridors of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, there was a boy named Tom Riddle. Tom, with his piercing eyes and enigmatic demeanor, was known for his ambition and cunning as a student in Slytherin House. However, hidden behind his mask of power, there was a secret that only a select few knew about — a secret that lay deep within the chambers of his heart.

In the shadowed corridors and dimly lit Common Room, there was a girl who ignited a flame within Tom's heart. Her name was Y/N, a fellow Slytherin with a fierce mind and undeniable allure. With her striking emerald eyes and a smile that could charm snakes, Y/N held an air of magnetic confidence that captured the attention of all around her.

Tom often found himself observing her from afar, captivated by her intelligence and grace. But his own pursuit of power and his fear of vulnerability stayed his hand, leaving his feelings for Y/N locked away in the darkest corners of his mind. He was hesitant to reveal his affection, for it would mean exposing a vulnerability that he had sworn to shield.

Nevertheless, Tom's admiration for Y/N grew with each passing day. He watched as she seamlessly navigated the complexities of their world, always remaining one step ahead. It was in those moments that Tom truly respected her—her fierce determination, her unwavering loyalty, and her dedication to her ambitions. Y/N, however, remained oblivious to Tom's silent affections.

But one fateful day, as they found themselves alone amidst the ancient and winding corridors of Hogwarts, Tom gathered the strength to reveal his hidden emotions. The moonlight streamed through an arched window, casting its ethereal glow upon them, as if fate itself had orchestrated this moment of vulnerability.

With a nervous breath and a faint tremor in his voice, Tom confessed his love for Y/N. His words hung in the air, mingling with the whispers of ancient stone and the echoes of their footsteps. Y/N's eyes widened in surprise, her usual composure faltering for a brief moment.

She searched his eyes, trying to comprehend the enigma that was Tom Marvolo Riddle. Though she had been unknowingly captivated by his presence, she never expected this revelation. Her heart raced, torn between the turmoil of her own emotions.

In that moment, Tom revealed a side of himself that few had ever seen. Vulnerability mingled with determination as he pleaded, asking her to take a chance on him. He yearned to find solace in her understanding, to share his ambitions and innermost desires with her.

Though hesitant, Y/N saw past the facade of power and ambition. She recognized the truth in his eyes, the depths of his affection. Slowly, a smile crept onto her face, and understanding blossomed between them. In that silent agreement, a bond was formed—one that transcended the boundaries of power and house allegiances.

From that day on, they navigated the halls of Hogwarts, allies in both love and power, their destinies intertwined. Together, they learned that love could be a catalyst for greatness—a force capable of shaping both their hearts and the world around them.

Though history would ultimately remember Tom Riddle as the infamous Lord Voldemort, few knew of the untold love story that once bloomed in the darkest of places — a tale of love, redemption, and the power of finding solace in the most unexpected of hearts.
