Tom had come through, he wrote to Evan and threatened to crucio his parents until they couldn't remember their own names if he told Dumbledore about what she did.
She didn't even know how he found out and to be honest she didn't care how he knew, all she cared about was that she'd get to stay at Hogwarts, her parents would never know what happened and Tom cared enough about her to get her out of trouble…
Tom consumed her thoughts most of the time lately and she didn't know why which unsettled her greatly ever since she had been small she'd like to know why things happened, why was sky blue, why couldn't everyone do magic, her questions irritated parents no end even more so when they didn't have an answer and she'd bug them nonstop until they found one.
So not to have an answer made her very uncomfortable, normally when she was feeling like that she'd talk Tom, but she couldn't exactly ask him "why can't I stop thinking about you?" could she.
Maybe she could ask her mother, she'd probably know why she couldn't get Tom out her mind.
