Ten Things You Never Knew About Merope Gaunt

All she remembers of her mother is dark haunting eyes and the tantalizing scent of lemons.

She had hoped that she was a squib, had dearly longed for it to be true because then her father might actually kill her.

She had once stolen a ribbon of Cecelia's and had stashed it beneath the floorboards; she wore it the day that she bewitched Tom.

Bewitching Tom was the easiest decision she ever made, and for one blissful year she was able to trick herself into believing that his love was real.

She wasn't a fool, not really, and somewhere in the back of her mind she knew that he would run when she lifted the spell because he never really loved her, after all.

Her only wish in life was that her son might look like his father.

She fell in love with Tom's eyes.

She knew that her noblest accomplishment would be death.

She lay on the floor and sobbed after Tom left, and she even tried to kill the child inside of her, but stopped because it was her last link to Tom.

The happiest moment of her life, besides marrying Tom, was when she was able to watch her father be escorted to Azkaban, and after he left, she laughed and laughed. It was a scary thing because she was not quite sure what it meant to be that happy.
