Dangerous Love | Slytherin Boys X Reader

[5]

Me and Harry spent a lot of time in the library, talking and reading, until his friends came and got him. I stayed in the library, though, scouring the bookshelves until I found what I had been looking for, "Ah, the yearbooks." I begin looking through the years, "Hm... Well, that's strange... years 1938 through 1945 are missing..." I furrow my brow in confusion and annoyance, "And that would probably be the years that he went here..."

I cross my arms, "Maybe someone checked it out, already?" I begin thinking of ways that I could find the owner of my real last name, "Well, I could try looking through the books with the name." I begin looking for the 'R' section until U see a book with 'Riddle' on it. I read the name and to my disappointment, it reads 'Riddles And Bridge Trolls'. I roll my eyes as I begin looking through the rest with 'Riddle' in the title.

I slump down in a seat, folding my arms on the dining table as I lay my head on them, "Uuugh..." I spent the whole afternoon in the library and couldn't find a single thing. I didn't notice anyone beside me until I hear someone clear their throat. I look up from my arms to see the blond from earlier who now has his arm in a sling, "Having trouble, already, Stone?" He smirks and I roll my eyes at him, "I don't need your sass right now, Malfoy."

I lay my chin on my arms, "Actually..." He looks at me, "What is it, Stone?" I contemplate if I should ask him. After all, I don't want him of all people knowing, "Never mind, forget it." He shrugs, seeming unbothered, "Probably just muggle problems."  I feel it again, it's like there's a fire in my stomach, and he knows how to get it burning like the sun, "Yeah, because a muggle is the one who got me sent to america!" I stand up before he can say anything and make my way out of the great hall.

I make my way to the Slytherin common room, Slumping down on the couch as fiery tears begin falling from my eyes. I pull my legs up to my chest, hugging them, "I have to be more careful...I almost told him out right-" I hear a familiar 'meow'. Looking up from my legs, I see Romeo sitting beside my on the couch. I smile a little, picking him up and cross my legs as I place him on my lap, "Hey there, little buddy." He purrs, "I may have messed up, Romeo."

He coos, almost like he understands me and I continue, "I almost told my secret to the worst possible person ever. That blond boy, Malfoy." Romeo looks at me, an almost confused look on his face and I inch closer to him, "But I can tell you, can't I?" His head lowers a bit and he slowly closes his eyes. I pet him, "Alright," I whisper  in his ear, "My real father's last name is Riddle, and that's all I know about him." I hear a door open and I snap back, seeing the annoying blond walking into the room.

I narrow my eyes at him before I look back at Romeo, trying to ignore his existence as I pet Romeo. I feel him sit on the other side of the couch, "You  couldn't make any real friends? Gotta talk to a cat?" I try with everything in me to ignore him, but the fire in me begins to burn again, "Well, it just seems like he's the only decent person here... well him and, that boy, Harry." He looks at me and spits back, "Pottah?!"

I smirk, "Yeah, he's polite, nice... and good looking, unlike some." His brows furrow and the bridge of his nose crinkles in anger and disgust, "You think you're so high and mighty, don't you, you filthy mud blood?" I don't turn my head to look at him, "Ooooooh~ Sounds like someone's jealous~" He scoffs, "Of Pottah? No way, especially when it's you we're talking about."

I hear more people begin walking in and I decide to test his patience, "Oh really now? But I could've sworn I heard a small whimper from the big blond baby." I fake a pout near the end of my sentence and he moves closer to me, grabbing my collar with one hand, "What did you just say to me?!" I smirk, "What? Are your ears going? I'll say it again, then-"

He jerks me forward a bit, "Shut up! I've already warned you about talking to me like that!" I look in his eyes, trying to seem unfazed, "Oh no, the little baby's throwing a tantrum." He throws me backwards as he stands up, retrieving his wand. He points his wand at me before lowering it at Romeo. My eyes widen and I hide Romeo behind my legs, narrowing my eyes at Malfoy, "Don't you dare bring him into this."

He smirks, "Then keep your mouth shut, and I won't have to." We stay like that for a moment, a few of the others watching, before he puts his wand back in his robe and walks away. I hold Romeo close, "I'm so sorry, Romeo... I didn't mean for you to get dragged into our fight..."
