bored out of your mind as you hung out with your friend in your dorm, you scrolled upon a trend of tiktok where two or three friends get together in front of a guy and put your phone up and record and see who he looks at first. curios, you wanted to try it out on tom.

stupid idea, yes. but you wondered if maybe he liked you only a bit. begging your friend to do it with you, she finally gave in an agreed after awhile. though she scolded you with it being ‘a bad idea’ and ‘he’ll probably kill us both.’ but honestly, you didn’t care.

as you both strolled out of your dorm you were instantly met with tom sitting down near the fire in the slytherin common room writing in his diary, smirking you hurriedly walked over and ignored his privacy and placed your phone. quickly hitting record you stood beside your friend, both of you on one side of him.

and as he noticed both of your presences, he seemed to look at.. you first. but irritation was etched on his face.
