“cmon, dear. it’s not what it looks like,” tom lies. he’s always lying to you. you’re the only person he lies to for unselfish reasons. he lies to keep you safe, oblivious, happy. “why are you in the girls bathroom?” you ask suspiciously. “you aren’t supposed to be wandering around, especially with that monster and the chamber of secrets open.” you say. he smiles. “i just wanted to see you, darling.” he lies right through his teeth.
