My relationship if you can call it that; with Riddle was like an eternity ring never know when it starts or when it ends.
He had been ignoring me for the whole week after the night of the confession-It has a nice ring to it- he gave me the first part of the cure, so I don't really have a reason to talk to him. I thought of asking him about the plan and I did.
The plan is dangerous and risky he told me and asked and then proceded me to steal from my house. I was outraged to say the least. Alas I have no choice but to follow. If this is the price then I'm willing to pay.I go towards the last class today, Transfiguration. It is one of the class I look forward to,this class is more enjoyable since we have it with the Hufflepuffs.
No Competition.No Enemity( just the same old fun.)
Time passes in a jiffy, as all other good things even this has to end.
"Eli, Proffesor Dumbledore is calling you.He has some work,in his office." says Olivia.
Tom who was walking ahead of me looks back but looks away when he sees me looking at him.
"Ok" I say as I go towards the office.
I knock the door and am welcomed by the sweet smell of vanilla, which brings a smile onto my face.
"Come in Miss Skylark."
"Is there any problem,Sir"
"No, all's well. Do take a seat.Would you like a chocolate frog."
"No, thank you.If you don't mind sir,why am I here?"
"Well, I heard that you dissappeared after midnight from the Halloween Ball,to go to the Maze of Horrors on the Halloween Day, at twelve midnight"
"Yes sir" I looked down not sure if guilty.
"That's brave, especially for a slytherin."
"Thank you Sir" I said as my cheeks turned crimson.
"Well I have some work for you,if you would like to do it"
"Absolutely Sir,I will be grateful to be of any help whatsoever."
"As you must know, This year we will be celebrating the Founder's day during this Christmas time, I have been given the work of decorating the castle,thus I want you along with others in the castle to assist me. If you wish to help you will be exempted from detentions,will be alloted a few free periods,your grades will be improved and so on." He said looking at me from his moon glasses.
"It would be an honour,Sir"
"Well then you can take some rest,You must be tired. Dont let me delay you any furthur." he says smiling at me.
As I go out I see Olivia waiting for me.
"What was that about" she says curious but detached.
"Well Hogwarts is celebrating Founders day and Proffesor Dumbledore wanted me to help decorate the castle with the help of some other volunteers."
"Do you want to do it."
"I see no reason not to."
"Ok then come on lets go."
"Go where? Olivia"
"To find volunteers Captain"

Being a Slytherin my friend is smart, she took us to the Ravenclaw's Tower. Fate was with us as I saw Sabrina(SudarmadhiRabindran) the perfect person to make sure things get done,she is one of those people who are born leaders,it helps that she is easy on the eyes with her dark frizzes and hazel eyes,prepared to be decieved as simple as she might look she has the power to get you down begging for forgiveness and with her was none other than Adrianna (beckyftcameron) one of the smartest girl of our batch,as smart she is,she is way more beatuiful.Her brownlocks curling, her amber eyes shining brighter than the sun,She is the sweetest,cutest and the most honest person you are ever going to find. As Olivia explains to them about the Founder's Day I see Anne (Freaky_Head_Me) the hufflepuff prefect, but dont let her house fool you.She is an all rounder, an extremely talented,polite and funny girl.She is part of the popular,heck she is the height of popularity one can achieve.With her honey colored eyes and highlights she looks like an Angel.
Only I had to be born with the simple looks.
After that we went to the great hall by this time our size had increased some others too were enamoured by the idea of decorating Hogwarts. I noticed Camille(HariniKaranam) coming towards me a smile on her face and mischief in her eyes.
"Hello Elizabeth, quite a group you've got here.If I didn't know better I'd think this was payback ;for the tunnels,though I must admit I didn't really expect you to go there."
"If thats a compliment I'm sure you could do better"
"Well, What you people up to."
"Decorating hogwarts for Founders Day"
"Can I join in."
"You dont have a choice do you." I said grinning mischieviously.
"Nobody asking me, It hurts to be left out" said Reece joining the conversation.
"Very funny Reece" Camile replied.
"You laugh at my pain" he snorted.
"Well you can decide if you want us to include you or sympathise with you." I said as I left him smiling and mumbling something appreciative.
At the end of the day where we started from two we had become twenty five.
"And you said I was the one who had followers,you got yourself a loyal group too." said an amused Riddle, almost smiling.
Couldn't Resist talking to me could he,but that's fine I tend to have that effect on people.
"We are decorating the castle because Professor Dumbledore asked us too,the benefits included help too,unlike yourself I understand the meaning of the phrase'sharing is caring' and dont keep the benifits to myself, I dont play with people or manipulate them,if I need something I ask for it,know something share it, care for someone tell them."
"What are you trying to say" he said sounding almost dangerous.
"Nothing,you too can join me and my group of followers."
He smiled .
"I don't follow others rather they follow me"
"And I follow my heart " I retorted and regretted my words as soon as I said them.
I lost him at that moment, his face turned expressionless and walked away. I followed him, I had gone too far this time.
"I'm sorry Tom, please stop, I swear I ... Please stop.I know I had no right to say what I did."
He thankfully stopped.
"One word about that, you will regret being born.I will make sure you pay for that, If not you then your sister definitly will."
My face fell and the good mood I had vanished into this black hole named Riddle.He noticed that perhaps,then trying to assure me a little he said.
"Where we stand today, Elizabeth is because of the trust we put on each other, I know your secret you know mine.I dont believe in second chances,and trust once broken cannot be mended.Ever."
"I know, am sorry.I wont repeat this again I swear on... on my sister."
