This is my first Harry Potter fan fic. This story has been bugging me for ages, so i decided now was the time to write it. Please Review and let me know what you think.
How life was.
Riddle manor was a timeless building, rich in splendour and sophistication. It was the envy of everyone in the village of Little Hangleton and had housed the Riddle family for generations. Summers were filled with magical parties full of Counts and Ladies. Mr and Mrs Riddle were proud parents and grandparents. Their son, Tom Riddle was the talk of the village lately, no one would have imagined that the handsome man with all the possibilities in the world, would elope and marry the "tramps" daughter. Merope Gaunt was the daughter of the local madman. Marvolo and his son were feared and frowned upon in the village, they lived in the shack outside of the village, an eyesore if ever you saw one. Marvolo and his son were never seen in the village, and not many people even knew of the existence of a daughter. Yet there she was dancing and smiling, basking in the glow of the privilege life. However her eyes never left the handsome man in the corner, talking to a group of noblemen. Her eyes were filled with love and adoration for this tall, handsome noble, yet her eyes held something else, a worry and sorrow that led right down to her core. As Tom turned around the worry vanished leaving only the love that burned clearly inside her. He lead her into a dance and slowly kissed her, once again proving to the world that she was his and that nothing anyone would ever said could tear them apart.
Yes the Squire and his wife had to admit that they were in love, despite her upbringing, Merope seemed perfect for their son. Merope had also provided a healthy and strong grandchild for them, another bonus.
Little Anya was the jewel in her grandparents eye. From an outsiders view this would look like a fairytale, the King and Queen, Prince and Princess, with a child of their own. A perfect family, a perfect life. Seemed to good to be true. Of course in this case and many others ... it was.
