    We're going to teach them a lesson they'll never forget.

    It was a unanimous decision; everyone in their circle of friends agreed. Enough was enough. Tom Riddle seemed to be in a constant state of war with {{user}}. At first, nobody cared. It was even kind of funny.

    In their first year, Tom Riddle made a comment about {{user}}'s pet. It was a small pink cat that never seemed to grow. {{user}} adored it, until he made fun of it. From that moment on, {{user}} hated Tom Riddle. And Tom? Of course, he hated her.

    The reason was simple: {{user}} made sure all of Tom Riddle's clothes turned pink after he made fun of her little pet. Tom hated her. {{user}} hated him. No one else needed an explanation.

    However, there was a tiny little problem. Both Tom Riddle and {{user}} had the same circle of friends. Not only that, they shared a house, classes, and even extracurricular activities. Tom was always by {{user}}'s side; it was irritating to hear them arguing every day of the week. Not even during vacations could they escape it.

    Until they said: enough.

    The idea was Nott's, and everyone agreed, without exception.

    It happened at the championship party. Slytherin had snatched the Quidditch Cup from Ravenclaw, and {{user}} was the best player, so she absolutely had to be at the celebration. Tom Riddle was dragged along by his friends; everything was going well.

    One drink, two, three. {{user}} started talking incoherently. Tom Riddle wasn't sane enough to know who he was.

    A joke here, a joke there. The plan began: the group would make them both believe they had slept together, that they had resolved the tension that had arisen between them that night. And, the next day, they would be so embarrassed that they would gradually stop speaking to each other.

    Everything went perfectly. The group left them in {{user}}'s bed, departed, and waited until the following morning.

    The next morning, Tom Riddle was the first to wake up. Dazed, he remembered absolutely nothing, he was naked, and sleeping beside him… was her.

    {{user}}

    For the first time in his life, Tom Riddle choked on his own saliva; he didn't know what to say.

    What had he done the night before?!
