mystery lover

On the morning of Valentine's Day, Charles opened his sleepy eyes amidst the noise in the dormitory.

"What's the matter?" the boy asked, yawning, he got up and walked to the roommates who were gathered together. After returning to the dormitory last night, he read too late, and Charles felt that his head was still a little confused.

Lucas looked at the boy who was half asleep and half awake, and put away the letter in his hand with some embarrassment, "Charles, don't you need to sleep for a while?"

He remembered that when he woke up in the middle of the night last night, Charles was still leaning against the dim bedside, looking at the book in his hand by the light orange light.

"No, it's all up." Charles was already awake a lot when he spoke, and he didn't miss Lucas's tiny movement of stepping back. When the pink letter was hidden, Charles raised his eyebrows in surprise, "This is?"

"Aha, Lucas has been confessed!" Another roommate, Wayne, booed from the side.

Early this morning, an owl full of love rushed into their dormitory. Before they could realize who the letter was, the owl flapped its wings and stopped in front of Lucas.Immediately afterwards, a pink letter jumped out of the peach envelope tied to the owl's leg.

It was done in one go, and finally a clear female voice confessed to Lucas very proudly in this quiet dormitory.

"who is it?"

"Alia Spinnet, the Chaser of the Gryffindor Quidditch team!" Cad Vallard, who was next to him, had already answered in place of Lucas.

It's just that this girl is so courageous, she revealed her name first, so that Lucas's roommates pretended not to know.

Lucas waved his hand in embarrassment, trying to stop the roommates from joking, "I just ran into it a few times during practice on the Quidditch pitch this semester."

But when he thought of the girl with long blonde hair and a sunny smile, Lucas blushed unconsciously.

It seems that there has been some intersection...

I just didn't expect the other party...

"Just met a few times and confessed!"

Several ambiguous exclamations sounded in the dormitory.

*****

Charles is a little lonely today.

When he was sitting in the auditorium having dinner, Lucas, who was sitting on his right, felt the loneliness from the left.

Looking at his friend like this, he knew that Tom Riddle, who could make Charles' mood swings, did something good.

"Your...mysterious Mr. Riddle, no letter today?"

Lucas thought for a while, but still omitted "today is such an important day" "The other party didn't say anything? 'Wait for discordant sentences.

Looking up, I saw Alicia Spinnet sitting on the Gryffindor long table opposite, oh, when my friend is frustrated, I should not be too complacent.

Lucas, who had already gone to the appointment and spent an afternoon with Alia, nodded secretly for his decision as a good buddy.

But having said that, he has never been very optimistic about that wizard named Tom Riddle.

I don't know why, but I always feel that Charles seems to be easily deceived... especially when the other party's whereabouts are still so secretive.

Besides, an adult wizard and a student at school didn't spend much time together.

It's weird no matter how you think about it, but as a friend, he can't interfere too much in his friend's emotional life, but if the other party really hurts Charles, he won't stand by.

After hearing Lucas' question, Charles was also taken aback.

In fact, he was not fascinated by not receiving Tom's letter, although he was a little envious of those couples who could see each other every day.

After all, it is really convenient for students to fall in love. At least Tom doesn't need to sneak into Hogwarts every time!

Thinking of Tom's long school time, Little Badger became melancholy.

"No, Tom is very busy recently." I don't know where that guy is now.

Charles answered Lucas, but his eyes were attracted by the light at the entrance of the auditorium.

In the auditorium, more and more students and professors who had been having meals were attracted by the translucent snow leopard that wandered through the long tables after entering from the entrance.

Many students were stunned because of its appearance.Haven't heard that animals can also become ghosts?

And how could Hogwarts have such a thing?

But soon someone discovered that this was actually a patron saint.

A formed Patronus.

but--

What about the caster?

In the brightly lit auditorium, the silver-white snow leopard did not look dim at all, but was even more dazzling. The strong magic power emanating from the patron saint showed the power of the caster itself.

"I can actually meet the high-level Patronus at Hogwarts..."

"Which professor's patron saint is this?"

At this moment, even the professors on the teacher's bench stopped their movements, and their eyes followed the pace of the patron saint.

The silver-white snow leopard stopped on Hufflepuff's long table in one stride.

"It... what does it want to do?"

Lucas looked at the snow leopard who was looking down at his friend. After a moment of panic, he remembered that the Patronus Charm is a powerful defensive spell, and white magic is not offensive, so he breathed a sigh of relief. However, he still looked worriedly at Charles who was staring at the patron saint beside him.

Rather than staring at each other, Charles was actually stunned by the sudden jump of the snow leopard.

Then, from the moment Voldemort's voice rang in his ears, Charles felt that he must be dreaming.

He was no stranger to this voice, the owner of the voice had spoken to him just two afternoons ago.But at this moment, Charles could only feel a panic from the bottom of his heart.

The low voice, sexy and soft, does not make people think that this person will be the supreme ruler of the wizarding world, but just an ordinary person who is confessing tenderly to the person he likes.

"Charles, I hope you like it, the gift I prepared for you."

When Voldemort's voice ended, the white snow leopard stepped on the air and quickly climbed to the sky above the auditorium.

Then a strong silver light flashed, and at the same time as the snow leopard disappeared, in the Hogwarts auditorium, white snow spots all over the sky began to fall from the sky above the auditorium.

"Snowing?"

"What kind of magic is this?"

"So beautiful!"

When the snowdrops were about to fall to the top of their heads, some students who couldn't wait to touch the magical snowfall had already spread their palms, and when their palms touched the snowdrops, they didn't feel cold at all, and they were glowing with silver. The light white snow immediately turned into a variety of mouth-watering confectionery.

"Omg! My favorite coconut sorbet!"

"And sherbet drinks!"

"Can't believe...there are all flavors of multi-flavored beans!"

As more and more snowdrops fall, the halls of Hogwarts are becoming more and more lively. Some students who have opened the Super Bubblegum Blowing Bubblegum, after stuffing the bubblegum into their mouths, more and more blue bellflowers Bubbles of color also began to rise slowly, decorating the sky above the entire auditorium.

There were already piles of candies in front of Charles, but unlike others, the snow spots around him would not only turn into candies and snacks, some of them turned into red roses directly after falling, blooming in front of the boy.

At this time, even the big Gryffindor can guess who made this generous confession, not to mention the students sitting around Charles, they heard directly from the patron saint. From the mouth, came the voice of the Minister of Magic.

"Hehehehe, I didn't expect Tom to be so romantic." On the professor's seat, Principal Dumbledore, who was stuffing a sizzling bee candy into his mouth, looked at Hufflepuff from time to time with squinted eyes. Teenager at the table.

This candy snow lasted for half an hour in the Hogwarts auditorium. Almost every student collected all kinds of candies and snacks from the Honeydukes Candy Shop, even the Slytherin students, After knowing that it was the handwriting of their own Lord, they also cooperated very much in supporting their master's plan.

A rare Valentine's Day when everyone is happy, oh, except Charles, who is still in shock and motionless.

But unbeknownst to Charles, Candy Snow is just the beginning.

When Voldemort decided to use his true identity to approach Charles, this confession was destined to leave an indelible impression on the young man's heart.

"Char..."

Knowing that this was a gift prepared by Voldemort for Charles, even Lucas could only stiffly tug on the sleeve of the boy beside him, motioning him to look up, "It's raining roses..."

At the long table in Slytherin, Pansy looked at the rose petals of various colors falling from the sky of the auditorium, with a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, "I'm sure, this idea is [-]% Draco It was suggested by my father."

"I agree." Blaise, to Pansy's left, nodded in agreement.

"Hmph." The Platinum Prince let out a heavy snort, ignoring the jokes of his friends.

How could you stupid fellows appreciate Malfoy's grandeur and grandeur, hmph.

"This is not an ordinary rose petal," Blaise picked up a red petal, looked at it carefully for a moment, and said, "This is a precious herb that can really turn into a golden Galleon."

Hearing Blaise's words, Draco's eyes could not help but zoom in for a second, and then he thought with some heartache, 'Are these things just laid on the ground for decoration! '.

However, the Platinum Prince’s worries this time are unnecessary. After some students took away a few petals of different colors for fun or collection, the professors in the school would naturally know what to do with them. Of course, this is Hogwarts again. a considerable income.

Speaking of it, it still hurts to think that the final beneficiary is the smiling old Gryffindor Whitebeard headmaster.

At the long Hufflepuff table, Lucas looked at the dazed teenager, a little anxious, and wanted to say something, but the people next to him were all excitedly observing Charles, who was one of the protagonists.

Some even directly interpreted the young man's stupefaction as overexcitement.

This made Lucas lower his voice, and approached the boy and said, "Char, are you okay?"

Hearing the voice of concern in his ear, Charles looked at his friend beside him a little at a loss, "What should I do, Lucas."

The panicked tone of the teenager already showed his inner turmoil.

Lord what does this mean and why should you give him a gift on Valentine's Day.

Charles, who still wanted to deceive himself, completely exploded his head when he saw a white card appear out of thin air on the long table in front of him.

Because he had clearly seen the black characters on the card, a short sentence caused an uproar in the young man's heart.

'Charles, my love'

Pen to paper: Lord Voldemort

……

This... when exactly did it happen, how could the Lord fall in love with him... himself?

Under the huge impact, Charles finally fled away from the Hogwarts auditorium almost under the surprised eyes of everyone.

And that simple confession card has been lying quietly in place, no one dared to touch it.

"Char! Char!"

In the corridor on the first floor, Lucas caught up with the young man who had already lost his mind, and pulled Charles to the window beside him. Lucas also asked with a headache, "Charles, calm down, have you ever thought about it? What should I do?"

This is simply a confession that cannot be refused, but my friend already has someone he likes.

"I have no idea."

Looking at Charles who was forcing himself to calm down, Lucas said hesitantly, "Charles, I don't think Mr. Riddle would want to be an enemy of...that lord."

"What do you mean?" The boy's blue pupils constricted.

"You understand...Charles." Lucas looked at his friend helplessly, and said calmly and tactfully, "I feel that the lord attaches great importance to you...Although I don't know what happened between you, but I'm sure , that lord should be a better and wiser choice than Tom Riddle."

If the friend insists on being with that Mr. Riddle, then the future of the friend... There is simply no way to go.

There was a brief silence in the corridor.

In the end, only one voice remains.

"I'll wait for Tom to come back."
