Just a collection of really short oneshots about friendships, families, relationships and more, pushed together and torn apart because of the first and second war. In no particular order, just what i write it in.

"Tom! Wait!" The furious blonde yelled towards the retreating figure, "Please!" she pleaded. Tom Riddle kept walking away from the platform into the busy muggle station.
"Tom!" He heard her call once again, but this time he turned around.
"What, Isobel?" Tom asked her. Isobel seamed to struggle over her words.
"Please," she pleaded, "Please stay."
"Give me a reason I should," Tom said, "I have important things I need to be doing. Give me one reason I should stay."
"Me." Isobel stated, "Stay with me. Please!" Tom turned away.
"Since we have proved there's no reason for me to stay whats the point in waiting around here?" he asked.
"Love!," She shouted, "Tom, I love you!" Tom slowly turned around with a blank expression on his face.
"Love," he sneered, "For a Ravenclaw pure-blood, I expected better of you."
"What do you mean?" asked Isobel.
"There is no such thing as love," Tom said, "Only lust and attraction, neither of which strong enough to keep me here, when I could be off to better things."
"Of course there's such thing as love," Isobel said.
"Then why," he asked, "did my father leave my mother? Wasn't love enough? Didn't he love me or my mother? And how come I have never experienced this love? Oh sure I've heard about it plenty. But I've never felt it. How do I know its real? This love everyone talks about. And if there was such a thing as love, why did my mother have to die? Didn't she love me enough to stay alive? To stay with me instead of leaving me in that horrible orphanage, " Isobel was speechless. Tom glared at her.
"I thought Ravenclaws were supposed to have all the answers. But you cant answer a single question of mine," he said. "Now if you'll excuse me," he said before disapparating away leaving a sobbing Isobel.
"Love, a horrible emotion," she said to herself, "all it leaves me with is heartbreak. Tom, wasn't my love enough for you?" she asked to the empty spot he left from, "I wish I hadn't laid eyes on you. All you do is cause me pain. I wish it could have been anyone, anyone but you." Isobel fell to the ground tears streaming from her eyes. People walked past her but she never moved. She stayed sitting on the ground, her back against platform 9 ¾, waiting, hoping and praying, for Tom to come back and change his mind.
"I'll never love another."
Okay, i'm open to character suggestions, and does anybody know what Dean Thomas's mothers name was, if it mentioned it in the books by any chance?
