Chapter 38 Pauline & Tom

-4-

Pauline finally learned of her classmates' speculation about her relationship with Riddle after History of Magic.

"Merlin, why do you think so?" She was shocked, "If I'm in a relationship, there's no reason why I shouldn't tell you about the sneaky date?"

Her roommates looked at each other, their eyes wandering.

"But you did sneak out with him yesterday, and he came to see you this morning as soon as you entered the auditorium, and you talked and laughed with him..." Her most gossip roommate A said, "Pauline, when did you Which boy have you had such a good relationship with?"

Pauline had a lot to say in rebuttal.

"Of course, of course, we all know that you have always been popular, and there are many people who want to chase you, but don't you despise them?" Her calmest roommate B said, "Actually, we used to be very curious about Riddle Could it catch your eye—he's really handsome, can't you deny that? You look like a good match."

Pauline looked unimpressed.

"The most important thing is eyes!" said C, her only roommate who has been in a relationship twice and is now in love. He must have loved you, Merlin, Pauline!"

Pauline was silent.

Well, well, if you take the "I'll kill you if you get the wand back" look as serious... that's fine too.At least she was genuinely interested in Riddle.

"I just thought it would be fun to tease him," said Pauline sensibly, knowing of course what associations this would have in a gossip.Pauline was delighted to think of the contorted expression on the Riddler's face when he sits in the cellar, with his girlfriend in the sky, and everyone thinks he's in love with someone who ruthlessly takes his wand away, "I think, and It would be nice for him to get in touch for a while longer."

The roommates all showed stunned expressions and let her go contentedly. When she went to the administrator's confinement at night, she acted as if she was not accepting punishment, but a date at public expense.

Pauline was so amused by their expressions that she couldn't hold back the smile all the way.

In just one afternoon, the conjectures about what happened during the curfew last night have developed to a version of everyone's hand——

The most outrageous thing Pauline heard was "Riddle had a crush on Sweet for two years, and finally attracted the attention of the goddess by his extraordinary appearance, but Sweet didn't want to give Riddle a title, so the two met under the starry sky. The Astronomy Tower secretly met, because Riddle was not good at kissing, Sweet left, Riddle refused to let her go, the two fought, and Professor Dumbledore jumped out and caught him on the spot."

After listening to roommate A finish this version, Pauline sat on the table and laughed for a class.

"It must have been made up by Warren of Gryffindor." Upon hearing this version, Roommate B pointed out impartially, "Or Carrow of Slytherin, they must be jealous that Riddle can date you."

At that time, Pauline looked at roommate B with emotion, ready to praise the latter's eyes like torches——

"If Riddle is really bad at kissing, Pauline will teach him." Roommate B continued, "Riddle is so smart, he must learn quickly."

Pauline slowly put out a question mark, "Why do you think I have the ability to teach him?"

"What? Don't you know?" Roommate C, who is experienced in love, grabbed her arm excitedly, "Let me teach you, you should balabalabala when kissing..."

So Pauline came to detention with her head full of kissing and love experiences.

"Don't stay in the dormitory in the middle of the night, go out on a date." The administrator looked at them with a sneer—he didn't care if the one punished was a good student whom everyone loved, as long as the one who increased his workload was a bastard, "Ha, you can't laugh now, can you? Don't think I'll let you go easily."

He really did what he said.

At [-]:[-] in the evening, the Astronomy Tower under the starry sky——

"I really didn't expect us to come here today." Pauline dragged the heavy broom, and her heart was heavier than the broom.

When she goes back, she must find the person who made up that she and Riddle were caught kissing in the Astronomy Tower, beat him up severely, and then persuade him to take a divination class, and ask him if Riddle's skills are really bad... ...The latter point is dispensable, cough.

"It's too cruel." She looked up at the Astronomy Tower with a bitter face, "I heard them say that the heaviest work of confinement is just to clean the weird classrooms in the castle - I have never heard of climbing up and down to clean the astronomy tower The tower needs to clean the glass!"

Pauline was in real agony, for she was the kind of girl who made herself so delicate all the time, and utterly hated housework, much less doing it with her hands.

As she spoke, her pupils as bright as obsidian turned slightly, landed on Riddle, and blinked lightly.

Pauline Sweet must be up to something again, and Riddle can tell right away.

Can--

Riddle was expressionless.

His wand was still in her hand.

"Do you need my help?" Riddle asked her politely. After adjusting his mood all day, he seemed very calm. At least he was very calm when facing Pauline, just like he usually treats everyone. elegant.

"Will it be too much trouble for you?" Pauline blinked, but the broom in her hand had been quickly stuffed into Riddle's arms. "I don't know how to thank you, Tom." She put on an air, " You are so enthusiastic."

Riddle smiled mechanically.

Side by side, they climbed the round and round stairs of the Astronomy Tower.

Riddle soon discovered that being locked up with Pauline Sweet was perhaps more painful than the lockup itself.

After Pauline "accidentally" knocked over his dustpan for the third time, and was about to repeat the same trick for the fourth time, even for the sake of the wand, he finally couldn't hold back, and stretched out his hand suddenly, Holding her wrist viciously, "If you knock over my dustpan again—"

Pauline turned her head, blinked her big bright eyes, looked at him with a half-smile, and gestured with her other hand.

- wand.

Riddle choked.

"...Then just watch me work." He said blankly.

"You're such a nice fellow, Tom." Pauline blinked her pretty doll-like eyes and smiled softly at him. "There's no kinder person in this world than you."

There is no more hideous person in this world than her.

Riddle was sure.

The author has something to say:

Tom, who had come out of an orphanage at any rate, must have done a lot of housework, while Pauline never did.
