Chapter Text
Tommy Riddle was locked in his room. No one had locked him in there. He just didn’t want to see people.
The Dursels were downstairs having a party or whatever.
It was Tommy Riddle’s house and the Dursels just lived in it.
But he always let them have at least one boring party a year.
"Some more rolls Mrs. Scamander?" Asked Vernie Dursel from downstairs.
"No, I'm good." Said their future business partner.
“Ugh so boring.” Tommy said.
Suddenly a weird creature appeared. It looked like one of Santa’s elves. Like Buddy the elf but not as tall and it had fairy wings.
"Hi I'm Buddy!" Said the elf. "I'm a hard elf." He stopped and had trouble with words. "I mean a yard elf.”
“If you’re a yard elf why are you in my house?” Tommy said.
“I work for Master—OH NO I SAID THE NAME!" Buddy tickled his toes. "Pure torture!" He cried laughing so hard.
"Stop the Dursels will here you!" Hissed Tommy. He really didn’t care whether the Dursels’ dinner was ruined. He just wanted Buddy to leave.
"Wrong “hear” Master Tommy." Said Buddy wisely.
"Stand up." Said Tommy because he thought maybe that would stop the elf from reaching his toes and being so annoying.
"Tommy Riddle ask me to stand up?" Buddy began tickling himself again. "Tommy Riddle is so kind!!!" He started to cries.
"Hey Tony!" Said Ron Weasley loudly pressing his face to the window of Tommys bedroom. It was so loud.
Ron hadn't liked Tommy ever since…well ever, but he especially didn’t like him since Tommy had made the Flying Eagle Wrestling Squad Team at Wartshog. So he figured he could take out his revenge by calling Tommy the wrong name.
The worst act of revenge.
“Hey, Romilly,” Tommy said back, throwing his other shoe at the window, and Ron ran away, scared by wrong name usage.
“How did you even find where I live?” Tommy muttered in annoyance, going to the closet to sulk and be edgy.
"I told Ron to do that." Said Buddy wisely, also in the closet.
“Oh lovely you’re still here,” Tommy said.
“What House you in?” Buddy said.
“Uh I’m an introvert,” Tommy Riddle said.
“TOMMY! ARE YA IN THERE?” A voice yelled and the voice was Draco and George and Fred Malfoy who were somehow fitting on an invisible tricycle.
They were outside his window.
Tommy was still in the closet.
"Hop on Tommy!" Said George. Even though Tommy was in his closet.
“Who’s that?” Draco asked as Tommy finally came to the window.
Tommy looked around. “I’m Tommy.”
“Not you Tommy.” Said Draco.
“Oh,” Tommy looked at Buddy. “Forgot you were here to be honest.”
He didn’t explain Buddy to Draco.
“Anything ya wanna say before I go?” Tommy said to Buddy.
“Oh yes I could say stuff about how the Basement will be opened again and how things will get real dangerous but I don’t wanna ruin the surprise,” Buddy said deviously.
“Right.” Tommy shrugged. “Oh well.”
Tommy got on the Malfoy’s invisible trike. There wasn’t enough room for four people so Draco had to hang off the bottom tire.
“Have you got your Wartshog email yet?” asked Malfoy.
“Which one?” asked Tommy.
“Draco,” said Malfoy. “it's me.”
“Oh no, just a bunch of letters from lots of ppls,” said Tommy.
“I made that happen,” said Buddy's head.
“Yeah well me mum said you could spend the night in our—“ Malfoy counted his fingers— “5 guest bedroom.”
“All to me self?” asked Tommy.
“Yeah because in our first one is my aunt. 2 is filled with the animals. 3 is Luna, 4 is my cousin Newt. Here is the worst part: me mum said Newt has no friends so we have to be his ‘bestie,’” said Malfoy.
They arrived at the Snake Hole. (That’s what they called the house.)
“Get in,” said Fred.
Newt was there to greet them.
“Hi guys,” said Newt. “I need help on my book. Luna helped me a bit, but I already had the things she said.”
“I'm gonna go to my room,” said Tommy who teleports.
“Hi!” Newt said again.
He accidentally was sent to Newt’s room.
“Sorry,” said Tommy.
“We are gonna be roomies!” said Newt. “Yay.”
“No really......” Tommy was cut off.
“YAY BEST DAY EVER,” said Newt whose shoe was untied, yeah he had one shoe.
“I got moves to Slytherin with you guys,” said Newt.
“You can be moved?” asked Tommy.
“Yah.”
They got to Wartshog.
