The final projects of the year were always the things I stressed about the most. More than O.W.L.S, more than normal tests, god more than my social life. This particular project I knew was going to be a daunting task, which was Professor Snape assigned our class in partners.

My knee shook uncontrollably as I listened to Snape talk, his dark, cool voice reading the group names off of old parchment.

"Draco and Pansy, Harry and Ronald, Hermione and Neville.." His voice trailed as a sly smile spread across his face, I turned to look at Hermione and her frustrated gaze gave me a laugh, while Neville sat there a couple seats back blushing and clearly happy with himself.

And just as I turned my head towards Professor, he called me name. "Jules and Tom, now if anyone of you has a problem with your pairing, don't bother bringing it up with me"

"But sir-" Hermione started, he shot her a pointed look "I said don't" He turned his back to us then walked into his office with a slam of his door and an audible groan from the other side.

Kids started packing up and leaving quickly, leaving me and oh great Tom Riddle. As I put the last of my stuff in my bag and slung it over my shoulder a voice called my name. "Crown" I spun around at my last name.

"Yes Thomas can I help you?" I met his gaze and he grumbled at the prolonged version of his name. "We need to discuss the matters of this assignment, as we are to do it together... unless you wish to speak with professor of course" His head drifted towards the office door, them back to me with a new small smirk.

Tom and I had met a couple times, being in the same house helped, we got along well enough and never really had any major problems, other than the fact that he was the sole person keeping me from being the top student in our year. He was smart, handsome, charming whenever he wasn't being a cold asshole, quiet, and fuck was he sexy. That sharp ass jawline, his black hair that fell in gentle waves stop julessss.

"Oh yeah of course what specific potion were you planning on doing?" I asked him as I leaned back against the tables bracing my hands on the cold black material.

"Elixir of Life, does that work for you, or is it too challenging? I know as the second student it could be a bit difficult" I swat at his arm and he raises a brow.

"Please, difficult who do you think I am?" I flung my arms out in emphasis. He eyed me, looking over my sharp features. I would be lying if I said I didn't get some male attention.  My dark brown hair hung as low as my hips, my curves in all of the right places, and my bright green eyes could cut you with a glare, but that didn't stop the men and their ever growing audacity.

But in all honesty, the only man's attention that I wanted was from the man in front of me.  "Well I would hope you're a half decent project partner" He huffs out.

I give him a crooked grin as I pulled my phone out to check the time. "I have to get to class so how about you come by my dorm tonight and we can sort through the details then, okay?"

He shook his head, straightening his posture, "Thats not gonna work" He spoke.

"What, wh-" He didn't let me finish talking "You can come to mine instead, 8pm"

And with that he turned on his heels and strolled out the door, leaving me standing there confused, and sort of breathless from the way he was eyeing me.

"He is literally the Harbinger of Darkness J, if I were you I would not go over to his dorm" Pansy exclaimed from her corner of the room, different shades of lipstick surrounding her on the bed as she chose one for an upcoming party.
