It's a fine Saturday morning at Hogwarts, the snow outside is glistening with the fresh sun rays. The air is cold but they sky is blue, it has been a while since the students and staff at Hogwarts experienced a beautiful day.
Even more better, it's Hogsmeade weekend, students from the 1st year to the 7th year can go out and enjoy a day or night at Hogsmeade with their friends.

However the 6th to 7th years can stay out longer during the night.

In the Slytherin Common Room and pretty much in the other Common Rooms, students were excited and making plans for later that evening. There was one though, who was still in bed because Hogsmeade weekend didn't really make a difference to him. Tom Riddle.

He woke up, wore some clean clothes and went to the Great Hall for breakfast. The smell from the Great Hall was smelled from far away. He sat down at the Slytherin table, putting food on his plate, however he was distracted from his thoughts as Astoria came and sat down next to him, pecking his cheek.

"Good morning Astoria, haven't I told you not to show affection in front of others?", Tom hated being shown affection in front of other students, to him it was showing vulnerability.
Astoria rolled her eyes playfully then smirked at him "So Mr. No Affection any plans for tonight, y-you do know its Hogsmeade weekend right?"
"Of course I know, got to know by students running in the corridor, knocking vigorously on the doors to wake their friends up to tell them the news.", He eats some toast. Astoria giggled at his morning crankiness, but he did have a humorous side, especially when they were alone or with his group of friends.
"So we shall be going right?"
"yes, just not at the Three Broomsticks"
To him and a large number of other Slytherin students the Three Broomsticks was the place for just the Gryffindors and Hufflepuffs and some Ravenclaws to hang out while Hog's Head was more their type of place, apart from no students under age were allowed, other dark stuff are found in there.

"Oh I know you don't like the Three Broomsticks because you think it's for hippies, never the less Tom, I just want to be with you for the night"
"I know, well I guess I can say me too because if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be going out"

"So you're saying you're going out because of me?"
"Not exactly, I'm saying that to show you that even I want to spend time with you" his voice trails off, as Evan Rosier sat next to him and Tom looked at him.

"Always such an early bird Evan", he said with a sarcastic tone.
Evan gave him a look that made Riddle chuckle.
"So you going to Hog's Head tonight? I heard there's a gig and better offers on drinks than the hippie hang out bar" Evan said while stuffing bacon into his mouth. Astoria chuckled while Tom responded,

"Yes, I know and yes we will be there", Tom stood up as well as Astoria, "so I shall see you around 8 at the Common Room yeah?"
Evan nodded, his mouth still stuffed with food, resembling a pig and Tom walked away, while Astoria followed.
"Tom, I'm heading out for a bit of shopping", She spoke when they turned into a corridor, they were alone. "So I shall see you tonight?" She moved closer to him, pressing her body against his while looking into his blue eyes. He wrapped an arm around her waist while listening then nodded and gave a deep long kiss, he winked at her before letting her go and he returned to his dorm.
