Diary (Draco X Tom X Reader| love triangle)

~twenty-two~

Hi! I'm thinking of doing a few time skips soon to get this 'book' sort of thing finished, I don't know? Would you rather have it short or longer? I'm writing a new one btw! It's already up (Tom X Reader). I'm starting Draco X Reader soon! :)

I walked out, worried by what Myrtle meant. Don't trust him. And what did she mean her 'fortune'? Her death... maybe Tom wasn't telling me something. I don't know, it's not like he trusted me enough to tell me anything. Horcruxes, I'm not meeting him, but I'll sneak out just before curfew. Hopefully I won't get caught.

I went to my dorm, avoiding the Great Hall. Why did I even agree? Oh, yeah, because he'll 'punish' me. Maybe I should distance myself, what Myrtle was saying is really getting to me; I think it's best if I don't find out what she meant. Or maybe she was just trying to scare me, she does absolutely love doing that. 

She was always stuck up, I guess. Maybe just for a while I'd avoid him, then when I'm sure what she said meant nothing, I can start being around him more. Even though he hated me, I think. Actually I need friends, now I'm thinking about it. The dormitory was getting lonely and dull, without Daphne. She always seemed to lighten it up, with that smile of hers.

I decided I should write to my parents, after all it has been a very long time. I pulled out some parchment and my quill, dipping it in the ink carefully. Dabbing a bit on the edge of the pot, I began writing. I told them about Daphne, and how lonely it was. I told them about me being in Slytherin, and basically how school was, and how I was. I left out all of the negative and violent parts, they'd be furious. 

I walked up to the Owlery, and gave it to my owl. It tucked the rolled up parchment into its beak and flew out of the window out into the distance. I walked out, Myrtle's strange words echoing in my mind. I was definitely overthinking. I decided I'd take a detour down to the bathroom. It had been a full hour since I spoke to Myrtle, and I was sure Tom would either be gone or not be able to hear me anyways.

She was sat on the top of the sinks, and I stared at her, confused. "Myrtle, p-please can you explain what you meant earlier?" I asked, knowing she'd probably come scream in my face.

"Well, let's see. Tom, he's not from this timeline. In this timeline, he goes by another name, I think. He time-travelled. If that was his snake, thing, he murdered me technically. One day, I was crying in the very toilet I live in, and suddenly the door opened. A boy's voice began speaking some kind of strange made-up language. I opened the door to tell him to go away, when suddenly large, yellow eyes met mine. Then it happened, I died," she said.

The basilisk. Maybe she was right, maybe I do need to stay away. I thanked her and left, wondering why on earth he would want to be in this shit timeline. So he goes by another name. Strange. I walked slowly back up to my dorm, thinking who he could be. I don't think he could be one of the most evil wizards from this timeline, even he isn't that bad. 

I decided to shower, so I took off my clothes and stepped in. I slid the glass door closed, and let the hot water burn into my skin. Most people don't like being burned by hot water, but I loved it. The water trickled down my epidermis, and I relaxed. I washed my hair with the lemon shampoo and conditioner. I shaved carefully, and then washed my body with some coconut body wash. I stepped out of the shower and dried myself off. Walking back into the dormitory, I put on my pajamas. They weren't actually pajamas, just sweatpants and a cropped top.
