Chapter 3
As Tom Riddle watched his beloved growing with knowledge, the more his body stayed young. Instead of an old, bald, beast there was an enchanting 18 year old with black hair, kissful lips, and the same red eyes.
But even with his new looks, Lord Voldemort still lived. He was still cruel, and powerful; scaring the magic world to its feet, expect there was something different. This new man was peaceful, content obsevering Hermione or Mya, his nickmname. That was the only time. Nobody noticed his secret-the secret that he protected with his life. It was that the silver lineing of ice around his heart was melting. With every look, and smile, he was falling deeper and deeper into uncharted territory.
Weeks passed and still he didn't make a move. The magic world was peaceful. The ministy thought that he had gone into hidding again, but no he didn't. He was waiting; waiting for the perfect moment to capture Hermione's heart.
Right at this moment he was watching, again. A small smile was glistening his face, as he looked at Hermione's laughing smile. But a stab of jealously erupted in his heart because the young Malfoy made that smile, not him. He understood that Draco was just her friend, he was doing his job, but that didn't stop the pain. Draco could interact with her, be with her; while he stood in the background.
Her studies were progressing, she was getting stronger-he could feel it. The one good thing that was playing in his favor was that there haven't been any more run-ins with the new golden trio. The NEW trio consists of Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, and Ginny Weasley. After they had kicked her out, Ginny had taken her place. So if they had ran into eachother her transformation would be complete. Anyone who was powerful enough like him would be able to feel the rage running through her veins. On the outside, she was still the loving girl people knew her to be. But inside she was a very different person; hiding what, and who she truly was. She was having an inner battle with herself. Her dark side was winning. Why live with the past pain? One a week Draco was summened, and he talked about her.
Draco had reported many intresting things about her. One, that her eyes were turning red, two, before when he first had contact with her, she was diverting her rage into sadness, and three, at the mention of Ron, Harry or Ginny her eyes would become a darker red, and things like the weather or objects would be strange.
School would be starting soon, and Tom couldn't wait. He already had a date set in his mind, when he would reveal himself. Tom might not know what love is, but he was getting the idea. People or creatures don't have to meet another to fall in love. Sure, this was the dark lord we are talking about but why not. Maybe by receiving love, the war would be over. Maybe, maybe not.
A/N: This was a short chapter but the next one will be longer, I promise. Please Review!!!
