Chapter 7

You're secret

Sighing, Tom sat down in the common room on one of the many puke green couches. Tom grimaced slightly; even if he was proud of being a Slytherin they honestly had no taste in furniture at all.

Just then a tall black greasy haired 7th year boy came sulking into the room. He looked at Tom, sneered and came to sit next to him.

"So you're the new kid ey?" he said greasily. Tom sneered back at him.

"Yeh, that's me." He said harshly. The boy grinned and stuck out a very long pale hand with bony long fingers.

"I'm Snape" he said silkily "Severus Snape." Tom smirked and shook his hand.

"Tom Riddle." He said smirking at the boy.

Severus ran a bony hand through his black ball of grease and sneered again.

"So how about that mudblood Evans, What do you make of her?"

Tom looked at him taken aback. "Mudblood? Lilly's a muggle born?"

"Yeh, the stupid filthy little mudblood, thinks she's so smart, can you believe she tried to out smart me in potions today!" said Snape angrily and flushing slightly.

"She's a Mudblood?" asked Tom again, but this time he had raised his voice. "That filthy little " he said angrily (I don't swear sorry, but I'm sure ya'll have imaginations.)

"That filthy little Mudblood" he said now rising to his feet "She, I, it's, what, all... Ah!!!!!!!!!!" he shouted in frustration and storming out into the hall to find her.

Lilly rounded the corner and found Lucius Malfoy strutting down the hall in her direction.

"What do you think you're doing?" she asked sternly. Lucious seemed to glide towards her. Lucious smirked at her and rested his hands in front of him.

"What's the matter Evans? Never seen a sexually attractive boy before?" he said silkily.

Lilly grimaced disgustedly and looked into his cold blue eyes.

"Don't flatter your self Malfoy. Now what are you doing out of your dorm? It is far too late for your little stroll." She said icily.

"Ouch Evans, I didn't know you had that in you!" he said scathingly.

"What are you doing out of bed Malfoy?" she asked trying to control her boiling rage.

"Dumbledore asked to see me." He said dully, "Now Mudblood, can I go to bed? I really don't pride myself on spending my free time with your kind."

Lilly was seething with anger but let him go all the same. Lilly rounded another corner and came face to face with a very angry Tom.

"Hi Tom what are you doing out of bed? You know I can't over look you just because of some of the stuff that's been going on... what's wrong?" she asked suddenly noticing his face.

"WHAT'S WRONG?" he shouted angrily. Lilly jumped and starred at him dumbfounded.

"I'LL TELL YOU WHAT'S WRONG" he continued, "THE FACT THAT YOU'RE A FILTHY LITTLE MUDBLOOD AND DIDN'T CARE TO INFORM ME."

Lilly's eyes began to tear. "I didn't even think about it, and if I had I wouldn't have thought that you'd care" she whispered, sounding choked.

"CARE? OH I MORE THEN CARE! IT'S DISGUSTING! YOU REALLY ARE A FILTHY LITTLE MUDBLOOD"

Lilly cried out at the name and then began to sob. Why was Tom all of a sudden being so cruel? Wasn't it him this morning who had kissed her so passionately?

"You disgust me!" he said finally lowering his voice and then stomping off.

Lilly stumbled back to the common room in tiers and the second she walked through the portrait hole she came face to face with a familiar pair of soft brown eyes.

Oh no! I made Lilly sad... oh well, everything will work it's self out, you'll see! R&R Luv ya!
