Attention [Tom Riddle]

2.3

Loella pov

That nerve of  that boy.

Might you wonder, no, the nightmares didn't stop. I blew up multiple objects in my room, but it didn't have much of an effect. But now that Riddle is here, maybe he is the perfect solution of relieving some stress.

'' Well, well Wilson, rough night I see?'' He asked smirking.

'' Apparently not rough enough.'' I seethed.

I was about to grab my wand from the floor but he was faster.

'' Now, Wilson you might have understood me the wrong way,'' he started and I glared at him, '' I didn't come here to hurt you whatsoever, how tempting that sounds. Now tell me princess, what is the problem?'' He said and it angered me even more.

How dare he calling me princess. My dad used to call me that. No one else.

I would've cursed him til death if I had my wand with me, unfortunately Riddle his long lanky fingers were holding my wand.

'' Give me my wand.'' I said calmly.

I waved my hand in front of my face, and the tear stains disappeared.

'' It doesn't look like you need one.'' He said with amusement in his voice.

'' Nothing is wrong, as you can see, so I am asking you to leave my dorm, and give me my wand back.'' I said in a monotone voice.

'' You look like death.''

'' I won't be the only one if you don't leave right now.'' I replied, not even raising my voice.

He just smirked and walked closer to me. For some reason I got the same feeling as I had in the orphanage again. Did he perform some sort of curse on me without me knowing?

There was this annoying feeling in my stomach.

Riddle stood right before me and cupped my face.

" Tell me what's wrong, love."

It was normal for us to talk like this, just to piss the other one off. But something has changed and I felt extremely nervous.

No, what am I even saying.

I am not nervous.

I am most definitely just uncomfortable, which is a normal reaction if the guy you dislike is holding your face.

I mean hate, I don't dislike him, I hate him.

My thoughts were interrupted by a thumb that wiped away my new tears that were falling . I looked up into his dark beautiful eyes and saw more than evil and anger. It looked like sympathy maybe? I closed my eyes for a few seconds and when I opened them again, it was still there.

No, this could in no way possible be true. I am trapped in one of those nightmares again. My breathing hitched in my throat and I felt two strong arms engulfing me in a warm hug. What surprised me even more was that I felt myself hugging back.

His hand was in the nape of my neck and he pressed a kiss on my head.

After he did that, he took a few steps back and didn't meet my eyes.

He turned around and walked over to the door. For a moment I thought he was going to say something, but nothing more than a sigh came out. The door closed with a soft thud, and I just stood there dumbfounded.

I walked over to the bathroom and looked into the mirror.

My eyes were glowing, and this time, it was without anger, sadness or evilness. It was a pleasant to see myself like this.

Could it be happiness? And yes, I let out a small giggle. Who could have guessed.

I had to pull myself together. I can not be this girl, no matter how much I want to. I walked over to the bed and sat down, looking at my hands. They still had the faint colour of purple on them, from that stupid Hufflepuff boy who spilled his luckily unharmful potion over me.

I rolled my eyes at the memory and layed down and pressed my face against the soft pillow. Minutes later I dozed off into a deep slumber, and this time without a nightmare, but with a dream.

--

'' You look good today.'' Avery stated happy.

'' Thanks, I slept well tonight.'' I replied with a small smile. Even though I only slept for a few hours, it was still a good feeling.

Avery wiggled his eyebrows and it took me a minute to notice what he referred to.

'' Ow don't you even dare.'' I said with a small laugh.

As if.

'' Whatever you say Loe, if so, tell me everything.''

I raised my eyebrow and smirked.

'' You're so sure about that?'' This made him seem to doubt, and he swallowed the food that he was chewing on.

He cleared his throat and took a sip of his pumpkin juice.

'' Forget what I just said.'' He said with a faint blush on his cheeks.

I laughed and he chuckled with me. At least the fake laughing was going without any trouble now. It almost sounded as a genuine laugh now.

'' Ready to go to class?'' He asked, and I nodded as a reply.

I haven't seen Riddle all morning, and not that it bothers me, but it just makes me curious.

We walked side by side and entered the almost empty classroom.

Dumbledore and Riddle were the only ones that were already inside, and Avery nudged my shoulder. I rolled my eyes but walked over to the sit next to Riddle anyway.

'' Good morning.'' I said casually.

He looked at me and smirked.

'' Good morning Wilson, you look exceptionally beautiful today.'' He said politely.

I rolled my eyes and grabbed the books that were required for the lesson.

'' Hello class, I hope you all had a great morning. Today you are going to learn how to perform the bird-conjuring charm, and here a fair warning, only a few students will succeed.'' Dumbledore's voice echoed through the classroom, and so the boring lesson began.
