Hello again Just to let the people who actually care about this fic know that I'll be updating more often due to the fact that someone is using one of my ideas for my third part on their story. I'm not saying that they stole it they just thought of some of the same details that I did. Damn but its good news to all of you happy people ^_^ unless you just say that you like it but your just really saying that to make my forsaken soul feel better . . . . . .nah you all love me don't you? DON'T YOU? Hehehehehe J/K anyways enough rambling.
Disclaimer own nothing it all belongs to the great J. K. Rowling, ( though I wouldn't mind owning Tom Riddle, Severus Snape, Oliver Wood, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Draco*The name of my dagger* Malfoy) . If you feel the need to sue me you will get an empty can of strawberry soda (:::yum :::) and a poster of Linkin Park (starts singing "My December" while using the T. V remote as a mic.)
This is dedicated to all of those people who believe that you can love and hate at the same time. (Corny but you'll see why this is here)
Tom somehow managed to carry all of Lily's bags with one hand. The other held Lily's hand. Lily's right had held her Mothers, and her right hand held on to Petunias hand. People passing by would have confused them as a family.(AN:aw ^_~) As they were walking, Lily was asking Tom about Hogwarts.
"Are the teachers nice?"
"Well, when I was a student all of my teachers liked me, except for one. He always hated me."
"Is he still at Hogwarts?"
"Yes, he's the Headmaster. His name is Professor Dumbledore, and even when I did good things he always questioned my motive."
"He sounds awful. Why would a teacher be that way with his student?"
"Don't worry about it, it was a long time ago."
"What house were you in?"
"Slytherin."
"I thought everyone in that house is evil.Thats what this girl said earlier"
"There are some 'bad apples' that spoil it for everyone else, but its mostly a stereotype."
"So Slytherin isn't a bad house?
Tom smiled at her, he seemed pleased that she was curios about his old house,"No, but they will do whatever it takes to get what they want."
"What did you do after you got out of Hogwarts."
Tom thought about her question for a moment and then responded, " I traveled all over Europe. I met powerful wizards and they taught me a few things that could come in handy one day."
"Will you teach me something?" Nobody has ever said no to Lily's 'Puppy dog look,' and Tom Riddle was no exception.
"I will, but after we get your pet."
"Okay, but I still don't know what to get."
"Well, an owl is useful because you can send letters to people with it, a cat is good because it keeps you company. I personally don't like toads, kids buy them because everyone else has them."
They had finally made it to Magical Menagerie where Lily let go of Rosemary and Toms hand. The place was smelly and very noisy and made Petunia make a face so she and Rosemary stayed near the counter. Lily, however, was amazed by all of the animals that were behind the cages. She was eying a beautiful green snake that looked at her with its head tilting to the side. Lily's face was pressed against the glass when Tom went up to her.
"I had a snake once, he was a very loyal pet. It always did what I told him to do."
Lily turned to look at him, "You can talk to snakes, can you teach me?"
Tom's smile grew, "You could be a good Slytherin, snakes are the Slytherin mascot. But talking to snakes is something that you have to be born with. It's one of the rarest gifts there is. Some people are afraid of people who can talk to them because they are afraid of things that they don't understand. I rarely tell anyone that I can talk to them because people are afraid that I'm going to make the snake bite them."
"That's wrong though, I think that if you can talk to snakes it should be something to show the whole world. If I could talk to them I would."Lily looked at the snake again."Snakes are beautiful, intelligent creatures that deserve respect. I wish I could have one."
At that moment Rosemary and Petunia went up to them, "I'm sorry Lily, but we have to head back it's almost 4 O'clock. How about we get your pet tomorrow?"
"All right, but can Mr. Riddle come with us?"
"Call me Tom, and I'm willing to come if your mother says I can," he imitated Lily's 'Puppy Dog Face,' "Please, I'll be good boy." Lily started giggling at him, even Petunia cracked a smile at the sight. Rosemary found herself staring at him longingly, she hadn't felt this way since that incredible day a decade ago. Only Tom noticed, he was smiling at her staring deep into her eyes. Rosemary tried to look away, but she just couldn't it was as if she was hypnotized.
"Mom can we go now," Petunia forced Rosemary to look away from Tom because she was tugging at her sleeve, "I'm really tired."
"All right darling, and yes, Lily, Mr. Riddle can come with us tomorrow." Both of her daughters smiled at her.
They made their way to were the Emily was, she didn't even notice that Tom was with them. She told everyone where they were to go and how to cross the barrier, then she handed out the tickets. They went back to the courtyard and into the Leaky Cauldron where Emily said Good-bye.
While everyone else left Tom invited the girls to an early Dinner, Rosemary was about to say no when both Lily and Petunia declared that they were starving.
"Its settled then, we will eat here."
He went up to the man behind the counter and asked for a private booth. They were then seated and given menu's. Lily and Petunia were seated across from Tom and Rosemary. The waiter came back a few minutes later and they ordered.
"I'll have a chicken sandwich with extra ketchup, a Caesar Salad," Petunia ordered.
"I'll have a small steak with mashed potatoes and a cucumber salad," said Lily
"I'll have a chicken sandwich also, hold the ketchup, and a cucumber salad" said Rosemary
"I'll have a steak, medium rare, with mashed potatoes and a small soup,"said Tom. "Oh and a round of Butterbeers."
As they ate Rosemary was aware of how close she was to Tom. To make matters worse he finished eating before she did and had his hand on her thigh. He was lazily brushing his finger tips on top of the thin material of her skirt. Rosemary tried to concentrate on what Lily was saying but Tom was making it difficult. She wanted him to stop but she did nothing to make him do so. She was glad when her daughters had finished eating and said that they were leaving.
"Can we stay a little longer, Mom, please?"Lily tried giving her the look, but Rosemary was trying not moan at Tom ministrations to notice it.
"No, if you want to get your pet tomorrow before we go home than we have to get up early." All of this was said in a very forced voice and a few deep breaths thrown in. Tom finally stopped and Rosemary was able to fan her flushed face with her hand. Neither Lily or Petunia noticed, however. When they all stood up, Rosemary had to grab the table for balance.
When Rosemary composed herself she said, "Girls, will you wait for me at the entrance? I need to talk with Mr. Riddle about were we are going to meet tomorrow." Both girls nodded, grabbed a couple of bags, and left.
As soon as they left Rosemary turned to Tom, she was trying to act as if nothing happened during dinner. "Here's the name of the hotel were we're staying at," She said while fetching a card from her purse, "meet me at the bar at Ten if you still want to talk." She handed him the card and as his hand lightly brushed against hers she felt it tingle.
Tom looked into her eyes and simple stated, "You haven't changed much since our last encounter, Rosemary."
Rosemary looked up at him confused, "What do you mean?"
"Your still frustrated with your marriage and would have been long gone if it weren't for you daughters. You live your life one day at a time and hope that its all just some fucked up dream. Not all that different from a decade ago."
He was right, Rosemary knew that he was right. She only stayed with Dilland because of her two innocent girls that think that their parents have the perfect marriage. And only one of them loves her real father, the other loves a man who she thinks is her dad. Tom took a step closer and looked down at her."You only stay with him because of your children. He doesn't even realize that every time you kiss him you feel ill, or that when you say that you love him you don't mean it, or that even when your with him intimately you fake your cries of passion. You can fool your husband, you can fool your daughters, and you can even try to fool yourself, but you can't fool me."
Rosemary looked down at his words because all he had said was the pure and simple truth. She felt both sad and ashamed that a man that hardly knew her, can know her more than her own family. She felt a strong connection to Tom ever since that day years ago. Tom gently nudge her face with his hand so that she can look at him. He spoke softly and caressed her cheek, "You've done what's best for your family for most of your life, but what about what's best for you?" And with that said they kissed.

::: sniff sniff::: Now that's was beautiful, It would have been better but I forgot to save about half way and had to write it all before I forgot at one in the morning. At the moment I should be at school but I wasn't feeling up to it. I have a major migraine but my parental unit (My mother for the stupid people :::cough Rachael cough:::) doesn't believe me (That bitch). Either way I'm home in bed in front of my computer.
