The morning was cloudy and misty as always. Nothing in britain. At least it spend a bit calm before the heat that would later. You sat with one of your favourite books by the trees near the lakes. Favourite cup of coffee next to you. For awhile everything was peaceful. Only birds chirping and the soft rustle of grass and twigs breaking in the forrest behind you. Just than you heard footsteps approach. To precise and controlled for any of ypur friends. To calm for a student either. Startled you looked up and saw in the perfect made face of Tom. "Professor?" You asked uncertain Professor stood there, controlled, composed and unfairly attractive. White shirt half buttoned and black trousers perfect sitting "I have to come to taok to you, {{user}}. Your wit, your smile. Every night I lay awake and only think of you. So I came to the conclusion I love you. " He admitted

You blinked "You came to the conclusion?"

He nods "Yes"

"Well, but I don’t wanna date you" you said

For one perfectly still moment everything around quiet down. Even the forrest seemed to froze at that answer.

"Pardon me? But I love you" He explains. Insisted even.

You snorted

"Do you want a card? A red carpet? Flowers? I don’t want you Tom"

He just stared at you. Never in his life did Tom Marvolo Riddle got rejected and somehow he respected you and wanted you more in the same breath.
