Ch. 27 Awkward Occurrence..

I marveled at the feeling of his rough hand in my own. It felt like if his hand was perfectly molded to fit into my own.

I couldn't stop the smile forming on my lips as we walked silently back.

The corridors were practically empty except a few lingering ghosts here and there.

As we reached the castle, not even the ghosts that usually paraded in the corridors could be seen soon after that.

It made the school look eerier than usual.

I noticed that Tom noticed this too, because next thing I know I was begin pulled towards one of the broom closets, even though we were almost to the dungeons that lead to the Slytherin common room.

"What's going on?" I whispered, as his body shielded mine.

"Don't speak. Something is going on." He whispered back, his head tilting side ways to listen.

He suddenly leaned down, and hissed lowly.

'What's going on outside?' He asked in parseltongue.

'It appears that a few members of the ministry of magic have come. They're doing an inspection of sorts. I would get to the common room as soon as possible.' The serpent warned, lowly.

Tom nodded his head as we quickly exited the closet and briskly made our way towards the Slytherin dungeon.

Proceeding to lead me to the common room, which was deserted, for once.

Though seeing as it was almost two in the morning, it didn't surprise me.

I plopped myself down onto the leather overstuffed, chesterfield stretching my arms up in the air as Tom paced towards the glowing emerald flames back and forth.

"What do you think is wrong?" I asked, hesitantly.

"I haven't got a clue." He said, biting his lip.

I sighed, and stretched my body onto the length of the chesterfield, slipping my heels from my poor, tired, and sore feet as I did so.

"Well, I suppose, I'll be heading off to bed if they're expecting to find something." I said, yawning, willing my eyes to stay opened.

I suddenly remembered slipping off my bra earlier before we went to meet with Tom and the group.

I began to feel the icy temperature of the room, my body automatically erupting in goosebumps.

Then I heard Tom walk back to where I was laying on the chesterfield.

"You looked beautiful tonight." He said, leaning over me as he leaned in and moved a few strands out of my hair from my face.

"Thank you." I whispered, my eyes closing of their own accord.

Suddenly I felt his lips envelop my own. I let my hands entwine in his raven-colored locks, as my arms wrapped around his neck.

I could feel as his body covered my own. His body heated making mine begin to spike up, as he supported his own weight on his elbows.

I felt as the tip of his tongue peeked out of his mouth,tracing my lower lip as he began trying to slip into mine.

A low moan escaped the back of his throat.

My body reacting to the sound. I something within my body begin to stir as I heard the small noise once more.

His hips began to grind into mine, and his fingers dug into my hips as he settled himself in between my legs.

Feeling the size of his erection begin to poke my inner thigh. Causing me to let out a low whimper at the sensation.

We both sprung apart when we both heard a collective set of gasps.

We both turned our heads to the direction the sound came from to be met with Headmaster/Professor Dippet, Professor Slughorn, three wizards from the ministry of magic.

They stood there with dumbfounded expressions, almost as if petrified.

I felt blood begin to pool in my cheeks as my face heated up. I could feel Tom adjusting himself slightly from behind me.

"Miss-Miss. Riel, Mister-Mister. Riddle what in Merlin's bloody beard, are you two doing out of bed at this late hour of the night?" Professor Dippet asked, appalled.

"W-w-we... w-we were just... about to turn in for the night." I explained in a small voice, bowing my head in embarrassment.

"Yes, we got back from the ball not an hour ago. We sat here talking and must've lost track of the time. We didn't realize it was that late, sir." Tom said, his voice even.

Even though I could still feel him poking my lower back.

"From what we just witnessed, I can assure you, didn't seem like what you two were doing was talking." One of the members of the Ministry of Magic sniped.

I saw them all look at each other for a brief second shocked.

"Tom, you and Miss. Riel are exemplary students. I trust you understand proper actions have to be taken for this occured." Professor Dippet said.

"We understand, Professor." He said, putting a warm hand on the small of my back.

"Good, well, I'll leave you with your head of house, Professor Slughorn." He said as they all made their way out of the common room.

"There isn't much to be said here. So, both of you are to report to my office after breakfast tomorrow morning. There it will be decided what your punishment will be. Now off to bed, the both of you." He said, before turning and making his way out of the common room as well.

We both stared blankly at the spot where they all stood before turning to each other and laughing our heads off.

It took fifteen minutes before we could calm down enough to talk without giggling or chuckling, in Tom's case.

"Let's go to bed before we get into more trouble." He said, leading me out of the common room.

I smirked at him, and made my way towards the girls' dormitories. Where I found Bella already asleep in her bed.

I quickly slipped my cloak off, pulled my dress off, took off the thin diadem, before I slid my night dress on and climbed into my head before falling asleep minutes later with a smile on my face.

That was the one of the many nights that I saw Nikolai Kuznetsova.

That was also the night that everything I had ever seen changed.
