Tom looked around the corner before hurriedly pulling Myrtle into the nearest room and muttering a locking spell. "We should be ok in here, at least for a little while."

"But Tommy this is the girl's restroom," exclaimed Myrtle, looking around. "What are we doing in here anyways?"

Tom rolled his eyes before answering, "I thought that would be obvious," he ran a finger down her check and gently tilted her chin up. "I wanted somewhere we could be alone." He slowly brought his lips down to hers, pausing as he heard her sharp intake of breathe. "I promise I won't hurt you," he whispered before brushing his lips across hers.

"Oh I'm sorry!" The young couple looked up to see the door swinging shut again.

"Well so much for the locking spell," Tom muttered before pulling Myrtle to him again. "Come on, let's get you back to your dorm."

"Just one second. I want to make sure I look ok," Myrtle said, flustered. Tom walked with her toward the sink, brushing her hair aside, and making her blush deeply.

"You are beautiful, despite what anyone else may say." He watched her blush deepen in the mirror. As they were turning to leave, Tom noticed a snake etched into the faucet, and filed the image away for future reference.
