Way Back When - Tom Riddle

"What is this?" Tom says. "What is what, Riddle?" C says. "What are you doing to me? Why am I feeling this?" Tom could feel himself getting confused. C would simply gesture a look at Tom. He turns to look at C, cupping his hand on their cheek. He felt... warm, on his insides. "You... What have you done to me, Lovegood?" C lets out a gentle smile, liking the warmth of Tom's hand. "Perhaps you're...," C stops, "feeling love." C gives off a cheeky smile, blushing, in fact, while Tom gestures C a disgusted look, yet at the same time, he seemed to be liking it.

They say that Voldemort has never experienced love once in his entire life. But, what if he had felt love? Way back when during his years at Hogwarts. When that lover mysteriously disappears from him, it led to his corruption. He assumed that they had died. That love he had for them, they happened to keep Tom sane. They were able to prevent Tom from being a murderer. They were his pillar. Years later, Harry finds out that they may be alive and is the only person who may be able to stop the Dark Lord once and for all.
