Untouched Memories

By: Tifa's Cloud

Disclaimer:I do not own Harry Potter or any of its characters, sadly. This story is inspired by an RPG-ing site I participate in as Lord Voldemort.

Summary: A series of events before Voldemort became entirely evil. The things he did not know and the things he had to let go. The pre-Dark Lord days of Tom Marvolo Riddle. Set in Bellatrix Black's seventh year. Voldemort's older of course, but read on. Tom's already a Dark Lord but a chain of twisted events will soon follow.

Chapter 2: The Song

Bellatrix was disappointed. "I see." she said quietly before humming to herself again. She started the song she started that captivated anyone who listened to it.

Voldemort closed his eyes and absorbed the wonderful melody coming from her. He became calm and relaxed. This is what in Bella he yearned so much for.
A Security from another person even when his powers were unsurpassable. No, it was... infatuation?

All her thoughts were bent on him. All she was thinking about was his features when he was in a young form. His amazing eyes and the way he made her feel. She felt like she'd melt whenever he touched her. Oh my god, she was in love with Voldemort! Her master! With that Bellatrix fell to her knees in shock.

"Bella?" Voldemort found himself gazing at Bellatrix Black on her knees ahead of her. "What's going on?" He started to reach out to her shoulder but, something stopped him. 'I... can't and that thought dampened him.

'She has no plans... 'He'd tell himself.

But...

Bellatrix sensed his presence behind her and got up. She turned around to face him and took her hood down again, smoothing out her black hair absentmindedly as she stared into space.

"Well?" Tom went closer to her. "What's wrong? You collapsed all of a sudden." He spoke rapidly. " Are you ok? Hurt? Tired? Tell me!" Voldemort demanded.

sad... he was.

What about her?

"No..." she said quietly. "It's nothing...it's kind of embarrassing actually."

"What is?" Tom raised a perfect brow, his voice somewhat irritated... or was it just him...?

"I...I...I think I'm..." she struggled to say the words."I think I'm falling in love with you."

Tom Marvolo stood there motionless. "You can't be serious... Death Eaters don't fall in love... It can't... happen..." His words stuttered. His looked down.

His eyes told the truth.. and it said he wasn't.

" I don't know what Love is to begin with.."

"I can." she said softly before walking away. "But I believe you don't know what love is."

Tired of her walking away, he sprinted towards Bellatrix. He grabbed her shoulder and pushed her strongly but very gently to a tree's trunk. He cupped her faced with his very cold hands and whispered..." Am I that evil that i can't even share a moment with the person I am most comfortable with?"

"Is this part of my curse that I can't experience this thing you call love?"

Bellatrix looked at him with tear filled eyes yet she was strong enough to not let one fall down her cheek. She stood there avoiding his gaze.

"I know you're evil and I know you can't love but you shouldn't have made me tell you."

Still to the trunk, Tom placed his hands on Bella's shoulders. "Help me... Bellatrix Black" He murmured.

He placed his forehead to hers and closed his eyes. "I order you..." He whispered. His voice was solemn. He didn't sound bossy at all.

"Tell me what you want me to do and I'll do it." said Bellatrix.
