Goddess Zero (Tom Riddle Story)

Stuck with me

Tom's POV

Its almost Christmas but I haven't given up. There are still many thinks I'd like to ask Zero. It is currently night and definitely pass the time when students are to be in their beds asleep. I keep to walking along rarely used hallways even though there isnt any reason to at the moment. I turn the corner a bit lost in though and I quickly became focused as I run into a soft warm walk. I immediately step back and get ready to either defend myself physically or verbally.

"My my small one that was certain forward of you," I hear a voice announce playfully. Making me feel a bit warm at her comment. Immediately I knew who it belonged too.

"Zero, I've been searching for you."

"I know, now that you found me what do you plan to do now."

"I wish to apologize for my behavior last time we spoke."

"Hmmm, I suppose I could forgive you. However you would do well to not mistake me for a human. I might watch you mess around and make a fool of yourself, but I shan't ever lie," she said this with a smile however it was dark, menacing even. I had to force myself not to flinch and back away. That didn't stop the cold sweet I was now experiencing or the shiver that ranked down my spine though.

"I understand," I said, I was rather pleased that I didn't sound fearful considering. That said it didn't stop the amused and knowing smile that graced the Goddess's lips. She knew the effect she had on me despite my lack of reaction.

"Wonderful, now that we are in agreement you should make your way to bed. You require rest. I will be there when you wake. As long as you remember who and what I am, you will see me plenty. I might not even leave you alone now," Zero delighted expressions and playful words made me smile a bit. She didn't seem to be very hard to please. Despite this I was still worried, she said she wouldn't lie, but I wasn't sure if I could believe her.

"Right, very well I will see you tomorrow," I said taking her to her word. If it came to it I would seek her out again.

"Great, let's get going shall we," she said as she walked past me.

"We?"

"Yes, you are stuck with me remember. Plus I did say I would be there when you woke up didn't I."

"Right let's go," I said taking the lead. I wasn't able to understand her, this Goddess was hard to read. I suppose I should just move with her, I will ignore her when she acts like this. It will definitely cut down my workload.
