Fake Dating (Tom Riddle x OC)

Hogwarts was FULL of attractive people, as we all know. From charming Hufflepuffs, dashing Ravenclaws, gorgeous Gryffindors, to alluring Slytherins. Every house had its batch of attractive people.

But Slytherin was where it was at. Almost every Slytherin you saw was drop-dead out of this world when it came to looks.

Personality, however. Not as great as the other houses. But that's besides the point.

There was a group of Slytherin boys, known as THE Slytherin boys, and a group of THE Slytherin girls.

THE Slytherin boys consisted of :

Draco Malfoy
Theodore Nott
Blaise Zabini
Mattheo Riddle
and of course..
Tom Riddle.

Most girls obsessed over Mattheo or Draco, but there was a handful of girls that fancied the others.

THE Slytherin girls consisted of :

Pansy Parkinson
Astoria Greengrass
Daphne Greengrass
Tracey Davis
and of course we can't forget..
Darla Berkshire. (OC)

These girls were the most gorgeous girls in the Slytherin house. Every boy had a crush on at least one of them throughout the Hogwarts years.

But enough about the girls..

"You have to pretend to date me." Tom said coldly, his arms crossed over his chest as he towered over the girl.

Darla looked up at Tom, her hazel eyes glaring up at him.

"You're out of your mind. Do you really think I'm going to date you? Fake or not?" She'd ask rudely, cocking her head to the side as she glared at him.

Tom peered down at the girl, his dark brown eyes staring directly into her hazel ones.

Tom reached out and brushed a strands of Darla's caramel brown hair behind her ear softly, despite his rough exterior.

Darla swatted at his hand, only for Tom to swiftly grab her wrist, emitting a sharp gasp
from her lips.

"One, don't swat your hands at me. Two, watch the attitude. And three, I need you to be in a fake relationship with me to get all those filthy 3rd years off my case. They won't leave me alone, and everyone knows how gorgeous yet rude you are. Plus, it'll get all those creepy Ravenclaw boys off your case."

Tom spoke lowly, the words sliding right off his
tongue.

Tom spoke truthfully when he gave his reasoning behind his idea, but little did Darla know that those three words "I need you," were actually Tom speaking. Not just to add to the idea, but because Tom has been infatuated with her for years.

Once Mattheo introduced him to Lorenzo Berkshire and he heard Lorenzo speak about his sister, he knew she'd be different. And once he met Darla, his attraction never faltered or wavered once.

No matter how many girls had made advances on Tom, his eyes remained soul-tied to Darla.

Obviously he'd never admit it. Not even to himself.

The Corridor was quiet, since Tom had dragged Darla away between class exchange.

Darla had a free period, so she wouldn't be late, and Tom was a prefect, so he could just make up an excuse for being late and get away with it.

Darla stared up at Tom, glancing around the Corridor. He's right, she thought. It would keep those annoying boys away from her because they're scared of him. Well, everyone who isn't Slytherin is scared of him.
