There is a part I can't tell…
Ginny takes a step foreword into the moonlight. She isn't filled out yet, only a young 1st year. But she is old enough to develop crushes. She has been made fun of so many times, and the boy from the diary told her that he would be here. She was too naïve to realize it was a trap. So, she takes another step, she can't see the boy. Or… she can't see who she thinks the boy will be. No, in front of her is a 16 year old boy. One dressed in Slytherin robes with slicked back dark brown hair. His eyes are dark, as if they could suck in a planet.
"Are you Tom?" she asks, her eyes wide with fear as she looks at him up and down. He only laughs at her expression of complete bewilderment.
"Whom else would meet you in the abandoned girl's bathroom? Other than Myrtle of course." Though his voice was full of laughter, it was eerie and made chills run up the small girl's skin. For some reason, she had always thought Tom to be a Hufflepuff who she could pour her heart and soul too. Were Slytherins not as bad as she had thought?
"W-Well.." Ginny felt herself shiver against the impact of his words. Why was she so frightened of a 16 year old boy. It wasn't like he was going to hurt her. Quite the contrary, he told her that he thought she was beautiful, more beautiful than Harry Potter ever would. She was beginning to believe whatever the boy said when he wrote it down.
Now, in person, well, she felt herself splitting in half. One part of her conscious told her that he was trouble, that maybe he wasn't even real. The other part, the more imminent part, only found him attractive, someone who was there for her, and someone who she was finally meeting after such a long time of writing in a black leather book. Obviously, she was a girl, and Tom was handsome.
"Oh, no need to worry, Ginerva. Come, I want to show you something," Tom places a strange smile on his face and sticks his hand out for her to take it. Ginny pauses for a moment, then reaches out her hand intertwining with his. Of course, she is young, make no mistake of that, but Ginny still feels goose bumps run up her pale white arm, and she can only mistake this for love, for a connection, she doesn't know that this is a warning sign.
About the dark I know well…
Two months, it has been two months since that meeting with Tom. Ginny can't remember what Tom showed her, but Tom still remembers. He knows that he showed her the Chamber of Secrets and began to take over her body, controlling her to do what he wanted her to do. He has begun placing his soul into hers, and Ginny hears voices every day, every hour, every minute, every second, in her head. She is scared, beyond scared, what is happening to her?
The voices only stop when she goes to see Tom. Everything stops when she goes to see Tom. Her breath stops, her thinking stops, and the voices. Ginny has fallen in love with the idea of Tom. She has given up on Harry, well, its more like she has given up on the world around her. Because Tom is her everything.
To Tom, Ginny is a vessel. A way that he can travel the school without being noticed by someone. So, in a strange way, Ginny is his everything as well, she gives him the things he needs, no one else can do that for him.
