Summary
Tom Riddle is not a good man; Realistically, Harry knows this. He knows, but he can't bring himself to care, because when he's wrapped up in his arms, safe and secure, he's so in love. Harry can't see his flaws, or maybe he can, but he loves him anyway because Tom Riddle is his soulmate. So no matter how much he wishes he was anyone else, with a different name, a different background, Harry loves him. He loves him more for what he isn't than what he is. He's not Voldemort. He's not dark. He's not mean.
He's just Harry's.
1993, in the thick of his 2nd year, Harry meets Tom Riddle for the first time. He's small and clueless and so, so weak. He barely understands magic, so when Tom asks him to perform an unbreakable vow, he's none the wiser. Tom Riddle, so encapsulated by the boy, his magic flowing and intertwining with his, he slips up. He stakes his magic on Harry, he promises to take care of him; but at the end of the day, Tom can't find it in himself to care, because even if his magic wasn't on the line, he'd give up his life to take care of Harry, to love him til his last breath.
