Slytherin Boys One Shots

Tom Riddle X YN: Stalker Part 2 ✨

Flashback:
After the breakup, you were not doing well at all. Falling into a slight depression. Tom was right, your life was boring and lonely. And Tom fixed that.

One night as you lay into your bed, restless and in thought. The soft hum of the wind rustling outside. You like to sleep with the natural sound of nature, so you always sleep with your window open.

As you let yourself fall asleep to the memories of your relationship with Tom, you can't shake this nagging feeling.

Someone's watching you...

That was months ago. You thought there would be more consequences after breaking up with him but there was none. He simply hadn't cared enough to speak to you again.

Eventually things seemed to turn around for you, you ended up getting a boyfriend, Cedric Diggory.

He was the perfect man on paper but for you, you never wanted that. He is type of man, who gives you all the stability you could desire. A sweetheart with a solid sense of morality. A good man.

Tom was never a good man. He was a murderer, a manipulator, a stalker... But he never once claimed to be. He took pride in being different and he did what he wanted.

So when Cedric asked you on a date, a couple months after the breakup. You realized maybe you needed a relationship with a good guy who you needed. Instead of the complexity that you desired.

Cedric was sweet, he bought you flowers once a week, planned cute dates, and always checked on you.

The day he asked you to be his girlfriend was the day you got your first letter. It was on the door...

Hello my dear,

Did you really think you can just move on from me this way. You and I both know he is not who you need. You need me and I need you too. Don't let your need for normalcy, ruin what we had. Take heed to this because next time, I'll be a lot more direct.

Tom was back but you were not going to let him control your life anymore. That was the only letter you had got for a while. So much you finally got accustomed to everyday life without him.

Life with Cedric was nice, too nice. Too routine. You missed the uncertainty, the ambition, but most of all the passion. That's what your current relationship lacked.

One night after a date with Cedric, you walk into your house and there are flowers and another note.

You sigh, knowingly because they had to be from Tom. Even though you changed your locks, he was still somehow able to get into your house.

With trembling fingers you pick up the note from the table and start reading.

My dear YN,

I see you are on a date with that new boyfriend of yours. It looks painfully, unmistakably boring. I thought I helped you get over that. I once told you that you were extraordinary and yet you settle for someone so average as Diggory. But don't worry, I will always look out for you. He got you red roses tonight because he thinks they are every girls favorite but they aren' t yours are they? You love beautiful yellow chrysanthemums. So I got them for you. Do you see how much I care now, my love?

You lean down to smell the flowers he had left, that were always in your go-to flower vase. These were your favorites and only Tom would remember such an insignificant detail like that.
