I'm a slacker I know. This chapter is really short, and I was going to wait but I guess its better than nothing. Please review guys! I need motivation and every review is a good one
Shane had his wand pointed straight at Tom.
"I didn't do this, you lunatic! I was helping her!" Tom said in his own defense, also drawing his wand. "She was splinched… Just, help her." Shane glanced over at the two people, and spoke quickly
"Get her to Sadie, and be careful." They lifted her off of the ground and propped her up on the girls broomstick. They lifted into the air and zoomed away, leaving Tom, Shane and the small girl alone.
"Is that Liz?" Shane asked, rushing over to the small girl
"I don't know. Marcy was trying to help her when the ministry official attacked her." Tom said crossing his arms. Shane knelt down and picked up the girl, turning on his heel
"Right, we're going back to the caravans." Shane declared, his wand was still aimed at Tom, even though he was holding the girl "I'm sorry but you have to be unconscious for this." He flicked his wrist and a purple light flashed across Toms face.
Marcy woke up, in a quilted bed, with white bandages wrapped around her entire torso. She was not wearing a shirt, only soft pants with blue and white stripes. She sat up and looked around the room, recognizing it as being her childhood friends home.
"Marcy, you're awake" A soft voice spoke from her left. It was an average size girl, with extremely blonde hair, and dark blue eyes. She had a narrow face, and freckles were sprinkled across the bridge of her nose.
"Sadie!" Marcy squealed holding out her arms, embracing her friend. "Oh how I have missed you!"
"And I you! Lillith and Toby brought you to me, along with a small girl named Liz, and a boy whom I have never seen.
"Tom! Is he okay?" Marcy asked.
"Yes, Shane didn't torture him or anything. I think he is still unconscious though."
"I understand… Are you positive they didn't torture him?" Marcy said with a frown.
Tom paced in a small room, with Shane staring at him sitting in a chair.
"I want to see her." Tom said "And I also want my wand back."
"When Marcy is awake, we will see what she decides. For now, you may not have your wand." Shane spoke patiently, and made no eye contact with Tom. Tom became enraged and was about to verbally attack him when the door creaked open, and Sadie popped her head in.
"She's awake."
"Good. Tom, I'm sorry friend but you'll have to be bound to speak with her." Shane flicked his wand, and leather straps instantly appeared, tying Toms wrists together and behind his back. A chair came up behind him and bound Tom to the chair. Only a moment later Marcy appeared through the door.
"You may go Shane." She mumbled.
"I can stay-" He protested standing up.
"You may go." She insisted more sternly. Tom was surprised by her lack of sweetness. Shane sulked out of the room. Marcy crossed her arms and sat down in a wooden chair across from Tom.
"Oh, how the tables have so, marvelously turned." Marcy said with a laugh "You, the one that is defenseless, and me the one with all the power."
Tom leaned forward, and looked up at her through dreamy eyes. "It's too bad you don't have the will to hurt anyone. Not even the ones who rape and torture you-"
"Shut it Tom!" she screamed jumping out of the chair. "No one deserves endless pain, not even Brutus. I only wish I could make an exception on you, but I cannot." For a good five minutes they sat there staring at each other.
"I've been protecting and saving you since the age of 14." He said breaking the silence "I've risked my life, and reputation. I've made sacrifices, I've disrupted my carefully constructed thought track. I've had to put major plans on hold, and I stayed up late some nights thinking of ways to make you mine. I never like to see you in pain, of course, unless I am the cause. When you cry, I am so enlightened, but at the same moment I want you to be happy. You are everything I want, because you're everything I'm not, and I cherish every moment I have with you. I love to watch the way you treat others, and everything you do fascinates me. I think you are an amazing person, and for at least a second, when I'm with you, I can say that I'm happy, even if it is just for a second. Marcy, I know I'm going to hurt you, and I know that I'm going to use you. But please, my darling, I can't control myself. I don't want to hurt you, but it just seems to always play out that way. I don't know why, it just does. You scare me, you terrify me, but cannot bring myself to stay away from you. You are what keeps me alive, and I need you. I don't know what love is, I've never felt it. No one has ever given me love. But if that isn't love then I- I don't know what is." He stopped and leaned back in his chair, knowing damn well he won. Marcy fell back into her chair and stared at him.
"You're good at this." She sighed. "You have me wrapped around your finger right where you want me, huh? You know all of the right things to say. Well, I give up trying to get rid of you. I only really have to see you for another year at Hogwarts and then, I can happily live my life."
"Yes, only a year." He snickered.
"What?"
"Marcy, I do intend on having you forever. But, if it makes you feel better we can say that it will only last another year. Actually I like that idea. Let's just keep telling each other that."
"What do you mean forever?" She gulped.
"Well, you're perfect, as am I, I think in the end this relationship will really benefit everybody. I don't really enjoy using magic to punish you, so no one will ever have proof of our arguments, say they get violent. And besides, you won't leave me. I'm everything you want."
"You are incredulous and full of yourself. If I don't torture you, I sure as hell hope they do. You may have all the right lines, and I'll admit, it is difficult to resist you, but it all comes down to a family vote. Good luck using charm and charisma to get passed my family." Tom literally burst out laughing at her words.
"I think it is adorable that you are under the impression I require permission from your father."
Review! I know its short and nothing has really happened, but I'll be giving updates asap!
also, I know Tom is a little out of character, but in the next chapter it is going to make more sense why he is being such a softy
