[HP]Tom Potter

"Tom, wake up and swallow the biscuit."

"Harry?" The little boy raised his head and looked at his brother, his black eyes opened wide with difficulty.

This weekend is a rare and refreshing day in Hog ​​Oates in summer, when the white clouds are drifting leisurely in the clear sky, when the wind from the distant forest blows slowly, uninvited drowsiness invades most of the students .Most of the little wizards who were reading and playing on the grass were "killed" and fell all over the ground, far and near.

In the golden 3+1 group that had a picnic in the old place under the big tree by the lake, Tom, the youngest, couldn't hold on anymore.

The little guy's big round head was drooping down, but the little finger of his right hand was still firmly holding an extra-large honey biscuit.Just when Harry thought he would fall asleep like this, the little guy tried his best to raise his head and open his eyes, and then used both hands to push the biscuit to his mouth with great effort, and slowly took a bite of the biscuit, but waited Before he could chew and swallow, he wobbled and puffed his cheeks and lowered his head again.That stunned and persistent look made everyone laugh.

Wiping away the biscuit foam from the corner of the little boy's mouth with his hand, Harry flicked the little boy's high and large forehead. "Sleep obediently if you want to sleep, and don't eat anymore."

"Yeah." Tom nodded obediently with his eyes narrowed into a small slit, moved a little towards Harry in slow motion, and then quickly fell on his brother's lap with a snap.

"What a sleepy little fat pig." Ron smiled and picked up half a biscuit that fell on the picnic cloth, and poked Tom's chubby face with his other hand, causing the little boy to frown slightly displeased.

"Crack!" Hermione nimbly slapped Ron's tricky fingers away. "Let Tom sleep well. Didn't Principal Dumbledore just say that Tom didn't sleep well last night."

Ron's eyebrows immediately drooped. "Poor little Tom, why have you been having nightmares these two days?"

"The principal said that it's normal for a child as old as Tom to have nightmares. He is too young, and many things in his dreams may scare him." Harry sighed sullenly, gently stroking the little boy's hair. "Fortunately, Tom forgot about that when he woke up. Except that he was not in a good mood, everything else was the same as usual."

"But Tom's a bit timid." Ron crossed his legs, propping his chin with his right hand and gossiping. "It was the same on the day of the Quidditch match, but it was just a Dark Mark. Tom cried all night, and no one could coax him. In the end, it turned out that the old bat hugged him and stopped him from crying. The old bat was That face, tsk tsk~~"

puff~~

Speaking of this, everyone burst into laughter, and even Hermione forgot to routinely retort "Professor Snape, not the old bat".

After the chaos was over, Professor Snape passed by their tent and somehow got tangled up by a crying Tom. Professor Snape had probably never experienced being held tightly by a child's thigh and refused to let him go, and his face was so ugly.But at that time, Professor Snape was not the only one who had an ugly face, and the expressions of everyone who witnessed that scene changed drastically.Especially Sirius, who claimed to be Tom's favorite, immediately went into a rage to snatch the little boy back.And against his old enemy, Snape wouldn't back down.If it wasn't for Remus and Mr. Weasley's persuasion, the two black-haired wizards would have almost broken out into a fight for Tom.

But according to what Sirius said afterwards, he wasn't out of jealousy or anything, but worried about Tom's safety.Because in the little guy's sobs, there's a lot of descriptions of a certain label "ugly", "hate", "dislike", and Snape is (or at least was) an evil Death Eater , he is likely to hurt the little boy.But no matter how plausible Sirius was, Harry and Remus didn't really believe his justification, and in the end, the sad Mr. Black had no choice but to give up.

Harry recalled that Snape's expression had indeed become very strange at that time.However, Harry felt that it wasn't out of anger or resentment, not that kind of negative emotion, but rather some kind of sarcasm and exclamation.

Hermione also propped her head up, gossiping in the same position as Ron. "It seems that since that time, Tom has become sensitive to beauty and ugliness. The people he knew before are okay, but for the new professors and students, Tom..."

Ron laughed out loud. "You mean Professor Moody. Every time Tom sees him, he always runs away without saying a word. But Professor Moody is very depressed."

Hermione satirized the happy red-haired boy, "Say it as if you were brave, didn't you drop your fork in fright when you first met Professor Moody?"

"But Professor Moody is really scary looking," the boy retorted shyly, "However, he treats Harry very well."

Hermione nodded too. "Besides, I am used to Professor Moody's way of teaching, and I can still learn a lot. I heard from the seniors that the principal invited Moody to be a professor to win the Triwizard Tournament."

Just when the three little wizards were talking to you and me, the little Tom in his sleep seemed to hear something. He puffed up his cute cheeks and muttered in a low voice: "Ugly... I don't like it..."

On the last weekend of October, delegations from the other two schools in the Triwizard Tournament also came to Hogwarts.Beauxbaton, who came from the sky, and Durmstrang, who came out of the water, won the admiration of the little wizards of Hog Oates from the first meeting.

And Tom's bad habit of judging people by their appearance has expanded with the advent of the two colleges.Obviously, the girls of Beauxbatons are favored and supported by the little boys, while most of Durmstrang's students are despised by the boys, and even their famous Quidditch stars are frequently favored and supported by the boys. No. Rolling eyes (How dare you rob Hermione from me, hate it! Tom is so arrogant.).

Facing Tom, who seemed a little too spoiled, Harry began to feel annoyed.Although in his heart, Tom will always be the cutest child, but he is still worried about the little boy's recent rude behavior, so the big Potter can often be seen patiently teaching the little Potter in the campus, but this is almost unheard of. What a result, little Tom nodded obediently in front of him, and then turned around and reverted to his old ways.

Even the old headmaster, who had always had a way in the past, was helpless in the face of the little guy's stubbornness, so he had to ask Remus to follow him even more closely.When the little boy's behavior became excessive or caused trouble, Remus was quick to fix the problem.For the worried Harry, the old headmaster reassured him, "Harry, Tom has grown up, he is learning to have his own opinion now, and he is no longer like before, no matter what we say. As a parent, there is always Go through the day. But, Harry, you have to trust Tom, he's a good boy and he won't really turn bad."

Therefore, as a parent, Harry watched everyone change from doting on Tom to loving and hating the little guy.Girls were better off, Tom was always nice and polite to them, but boys and grown wizards were treated differently.Therefore, many slovenly boys in Gryffindor would be depressed and give angry rolls to that overly beautiful and delicate Malfoy in Slytherin.

At the Halloween dinner, the little boy stubbornly occupied Harry's lap, nibbling on a snack while staring at the ugly old Goblet of Fire.He had heard from his brothers and sisters that the Goblet of Fire would choose the bravest and most outstanding warriors.Who could that be, the little boy wondered.

When the Hogwarts warrior was selected, the boy stretched his neck to see the applause of Hufflepuff, and looked critically at the tall and handsome Diggory for a while, then nodded in seeming satisfaction, and clapped his hands. Small hands applaud him.

"May I ask our lovely little Mr. Potter, are you satisfied with Diggory?" Fred, who was sitting across from him and was watching the boy's every move, couldn't help laughing.

George also cheered for his twin brother, "If you are not satisfied, we can go to the principal and propose to replace him."

Tom's big eyes lit up, and he said expectantly, "Can it be Harry instead?"

"But the Goblet of Fire warriors need to be great. Does Tom think Harry is great?"

"Well, Harry is the best!" the boy raised his face and said solemnly. "Better than anyone else!"

The Gryffindors around burst into laughter, and Harry lightly pressed the boy's head, "Tom, I'm so glad you think so highly of me."

Just as they were laughing and laughing, the Goblet of Fire made a new move, and it spewed out the fourth note amidst everyone's surprised eyes.

"Harry Potter~"

When the old headmaster's suspicious voice resounded in the hall, everyone was stunned.The Gryffindors who heard the twins' joke just now stared blankly at the two twins who were also in a daze. Only the excited Tom happily jumped onto the long table.

"Harry!" the boy cheered, throwing his hands up. "Harry is the best!"

The author has something to say:

Naturally, the excited Tom got all the adults' attention.Especially a certain white-bearded principal and black-haired professor.

Poor little Tom, he didn't actually do anything...

Comes with a small theater:

After figuring out Tom's innocence, the old headmaster breathed a sigh of relief.Then the wise old wizard found a time when the adult wizards gathered together, hugged little Tom and hid aside, "Tom, let's play a game of finding someone. Look, there is someone or something that belongs to you here." What? The more you find, the more rewards!"

Little Tom glanced at the crowd with his finger in his mouth, and found the potions professor with a gloomy face. "Snape!"

"Well, Tom is so smart, he found Severus, is there anything else?"

Little Tom searched again, and found the lanky wizard with the goatee.He pouted, but still pointed at Durmstrang's headmaster, "That."

The old headmaster nodded again, "We Tom found another one, is there any more?"

Little Tom didn't hear the old headmaster's slightly solemn voice, and continued to search.But after searching and searching, there was only one person left.

Little Tom looked at the face without one eye and half of the nose, and his young heart began to shake.

mine……

But ugly...

mine……

But he still bullied Draco...

Finally, the boy shook his head firmly. "No more." Tom doesn't want ugly villains.

The old wizard was confused. How did Harry's note get thrown into the Goblet of Fire?
