Prompt 6: Snowmen 🎄

It's been a while since you've been kidnapped by Tom Riddle and you blamed yourself for not seeing the red flags and warning signs sooner. You never should have trusted him and made the effort of even befriending him for that matter because at that point, you didn't know about his hidden dark side obsessed with you, wanting to own you and possess you. You knew Tom was scary when he was mad but when he saw some random Gryffindor guy kiss you on the cheek he blew his fuse and rage coursed through his body. He literally dragged the guy to the Forbidden Forest and murdered him. Unfortunately at that time you've run out of a few herbs for your Herbology class and you decided to go looking for some herbs in the forest and you've caught Tom doing that horrible deed and it scared the hell out of you. You couldn't even tell anyone because he immediately found you and pinned your arms against a tree bark and whispered "If you ever make the mistake of telling someone about this I'll make sure the world forgets about you. You're MINE. And if any filthy pest dares to lay a hand on you,I'll make them regret it. Who do you belong to?" he asked you sharply as he leaned closer and you whimpered "You" as he smirked triumphantly

From then on he made your life a literal living hell. He'd never leave you alone and he'd always torment you by asking you to kiss him on the lips if you wanted your stuff back from him and was bullying you and forcing you to be in a relationship with him. He hated the way your so called friends looked at you and laughed with you, the only one who deserves to hear your laughter is him, not some random git. He's very open about his dislikes to your friends, he just hexes them and threatens you to not talk to them again and cut off all your relations with them unless you wanted something bad to happen to them. "Their blood will be on your hands forever. I know that's something your tiny innocent naive little brain can't cope with..." and seeing you plead and beg him to spare their lives was so enjoyable and pleasurable for him. He felt the adrenaline course and surge through his body's veins when he saw you begging for him, you looked so cute when you were at his mercy

He loved playing mind games with you and manipulating every aspect of your life like you were some kind of puppet. The way he sees it is that he OWNS you now, you're his and only his. So he gets to do whatever the heck he wants and by now, whatever temporary friends you've made and your other friends and students in Hogwarts refused to even look at you and avoided you like the plague. You could no longer bear and tolerate his bullying so you decided to switch schools and if you think that's done anything useful and effective, dear, you've never been sorely mistaken in your entire life. He's none other than Tom riddle himself, a descendent of Salazar Slytherin and already had quite the following so there's no way he'll let you get away from him

He'll kidnap you after you try to leave him and now that you're with him, he'll never let you go. He sees you like some kind of pet. It was currently the Christmas time and you missed spending time with your loved ones like your family and friends and you longed to play out in the snow like old times. So the next time when he went out on some work, you snuck out of the house and decided to have some fun by yourself. When Tom came back home he saw you gone and he was half angry and half impressed. Angry because you had the guts and audacity to leave him, impressed because you actually managed to pull this off, it looked like your credits were long overdue

His heart malfunctioned for a moment when he caught you making a snowman in the backyard and he couldn't help but think that you looked endearing. He saw you making all those snow angels and saw you in a different light, how adorable you were. You saw Tom standing there near the door and invited him to spend time with you as you surprised him with a snow ball attack. He was so stunned at first and then he freaking laughed, like ACTUALLY LAUGHED and you know there's something up his sleeve for sure when he laughs. However this time his laugh was genuine and he found himself enjoying this little pastime and silly little hobby with you as he threw snowballs back at you as well. After your little war with him, he surprised you by gifting you a necklace engraved with his and your initials, another way of proving and showing the world that the two of you belong to each other

His eyes narrowed to slits when your nose started sniffling and when you started sneezing due to the cold. The two of you immediately went back inside because he literally dragged you inside and when you told him it was nice he cared about you he just scoffed and replied "Well I wouldn't want my little pet getting sick. A sick let isn't any good for me" but he really didn't want you falling sick. Tom might be a huge jerk but there are times where he has his soft moments and his heart and feelings paint him in different light. He's actually really gentle with you you he's taking care of you, bringing you blankets, taking your temperature and giving you all sorts of warm food and drinks to consume for your cold to go away and of course, him chewing you out for spending too much time outside

You might not know this and you might find this surprising but he actually does love and care for you, more than you can imagine. However he'd rather be sent to an early grave than admitting his actual real feelings for you. When he kidnapped you he made sure to look after you as well because clearly you were incapable of doing so according to him. You should really thank him for coming into your life, he's your savior, even if he has to save you from your self at times and at a cost and price of your freedom that is...
