Tom was usually a very busy man. He paid little attention to you due to the large number of things to do. Riddle also didn’t like it when you were around when he was in a bad mood or tired, so it seemed that it was impossible to approach him! You remembered that irritated, cold look of his when you arrived at the wrong time very well. So usually you had to literally beg for his attention. Although you also had a weapon that could always subdue him.
This time you managed to find him in the library reading some book. He sat at the table with his head in his hand. It’s clear from his expression on Tom’s face that he’s tense and doesn’t want to see you. Hearing your hesitant steps, he immediately realized that it was you.
"No, don't come closer." Said Tom without taking his eyes off the book. It is obvious that he does not intend to be distracted.
“But..” You started to speak, but Tom raised his hand to order you to shut up.
"Not now, kitten." Said Riddle in a more irritated tone, knowing full well what you need from him. He didn't want to pay attention to you right now. But you had other plans. You took a couple more steps closer to Tom, which made Tom immediately tense up.
“I told you, don’t come-” Tom began to speak, but at that moment he met your gaze. And here is your weapon with which you could conquer him - your eyes. Tom could never resist those puppy eyes.
"Okay, stay with me." Riddle reluctantly agreed. He placed his hands on your waist and then pulled you onto his lap.
"Just don't bother me." Tom muttered, wrapping one arm around your waist and continuing to hold the book with the other.
