Your mother gave you one last tight squeeze before you had to get on the train. It was your first year at Hogwarts and your mother and father were seeing you off.

"Now. Promise you'll write to me every week." Your mother began to cry.

You nodded "of course mother."

Your father put a hand on your shoulder "you'll have a great time sweetheart, I promise. You'll make many life long friends at Hogwarts."

You smiled giving you father a final hug before going onto the train. You waved to them until they were out of site then you went to find an empty compartment.

You searched and searched but every compartment you came across was full. Just when you thought you were going to have to stand the whole ride you came to an almost empty compartment. A boy who looked to be your age, which was 11, sat alone looking out the window

You hesitantly opened the door thinking maybe the boy wanted to be alone and looked in "h-hello?" You said "would you mind if I sit here? Every else is full"

He shook his head and gestured to the seat in front of him. You sat down across from him and after a few moments of awkward silence you spoke again

"I'm (y/n), (y/n) (y/l/n)." You smiled and held out your hand. He stared at it for a moment before taking it

"I'm Tom, Tom Riddle"

-time skip to after the train arrives-

"(Y/l/n) (Y/n)"

Your name was called and you froze. Looking up at the stool you took a seat on top of it as the sorting hat was places on your head. You scanned the four house tables until you eyes meet the eyes of the boy you met on the train. He had been sorted into Slytherin and you hoped you would be too

He gave you a small smirk and you smiled back as the hat called out "Slytherin!"

The Slytherin table erupted in cheers as you jumped off the stool and ran over to the table. Tom slid over so you could sit down.

Shortly after everyone was sorted the tables filled with all sorts of foods and everyone ate until they couldn't eat anymore

-a few hours later-

You sat on a couch in the Slytherin common room with your nose in a book. You felt someone watching you. You looked up from the book in your hands

"Tom?" You called out into the darkened room. The boy you met earlier,named Tom, stepped next to the fire place

"(Y/n) what are you doing up?"

"I was reading..I couldn't sleep, what are you doing up?"

"I thought I heard something turns out that something was you"

He looked into the fire place then up at you "I suggest you get to bed. We have a long day ahead of us tomorrow"

With that he turned on his heel and left you in the common room
