Pretend

Ten - Mistletoe

Y/n's pov

I was so grateful that I didn't have to spend the rest of the winter break alone, my parents will already leave tomorrow evening .

'It's getting late, time literally flies' said my father as he looked at his pocket watch , the one that I gifted him.

'Perhaps you can stay the night' proposed Mr. Riddle

'Yes and then when you go back home tomorrow y/n can get her belongings' continued Mrs Riddle

'That's sounds great' stated my mom facing me with a smile

I nodded

Merope gave a look at his husband and he stood up

'Alright so, shall we show you the guess room?' Asked Mr riddle

I was about to stand up like my parents did but Merope stopped me.

'Oh dear you can stay here, us adults have some other matters to take care of' she smiles at me

That's suspicious, that's weird

They finally left the chamber

'Was this the reason why you were sad about the letter?' Asked Tom once they have left

'Took you long enough, I thought you were smart' I teased

' I am, I'm just no secret investigator' he rolled his eyes

' I thought I would be spending New year alone, not that I can't be on my own... sometimes it's just.. so lonely' I admit looking at the floor.

'Well, you're not going to spent it alone' he said

I was almost blushing, until he continued talking

'Lot of girls dream about spending a day with Tom Riddle, think of how lucky you are. You're going the spend the rest of the holidays with me'  he said looking at me with a smirk

I gave him a 'really?' Look lifting one eyebrow

'Poor me, also you are the one lucky to spend time with me! Don't you know-'

' no I don't' he interrupted me

I looked at him I disbelief when I felt something hanging from the ceiling

I look up and see some freaking mistletoe growing?? From the ceiling??

My eyes widened and Tom who was looking at me seemed to notice.

He followed my gaze and looked up at the plant .

He then looked back at me and our eyes locked.

I gulped , I didn't know what to do.
I felt my heart doing the wap in my chest

His eyes fell on my lips and then again to my eyes

Shit this is not helping

'We don't have to if-' I started saying embarrassed

'Oh fuck it' he said as he cupped my face with his warm hands and leaned forward to meet my lips.

I got shocked for half a second but then I returned the kiss.

I placed my arms around the back of his neck, I felt my heart exploding at this point.

He deepened the kiss before pulling out, I couldn't help but smile.

'It was my.. first kiss' I confess looking at the ground and then at him

He cleared his throat
'So it was mine'

'What?!  you're telling be that the Heartthrob Tom Riddle has never given his first kiss before??' I looked at him in disbelief

' what? I could tell the same about you' he hissed back

' well now my lips are not virgin anymore' I said

He chuckled shaking his head

Good thing it wasn't awkward

Narrator's pov

Little did they know that two women were proud of their accomplished mission.

'Good job Merope' said y/mn giggling
'It was all your idea after all' replied Merope

The two women shared a high-five, before going back to meet their husbands.

A/n: sooo this is a short chapter buttt its the moment we're been waiting for hehe
