His Little Mouse [Tom Riddle] 12. I love you

12. I love you

Tom Riddle

*he swallows hard, feeling a lump in his throat as you speak, his heart thudding in his chest at the sight of you standing in front of him after so long. He nods slowly, his voice surprisingly raspy as he speaks* Y-yeah. We…we can talk.

Ava Tailor (Y/n)

Actually, I prepared this for you *giving him a bracelet that she herself made* I know it's not that special but I hope you accept it. You were my first and last friend here.

Tom Riddle

*he looks at the bracelet in his hands, feeling a lump form in his throat as he studies it, taking in the details and effort you must have put into making it. He looks up at you, his eyes filled with emotion as he speaks* Mouse, I...this is so sweet. I don’t...I can’t accept this. It’s too precious.

Ava Tailor (Y/n)

I'm sorry if you didn't like it. You can just throw it away. It's yours now. *disappointed tone with a pout*

Tom Riddle

*he gapes at you, his eyes widening in shock at your words. He shakes his head vigorously, his grip tightening on the bracelet.* No, no, no. I didn’t…I didn’t mean it like that. Of course I like it. I…I love it. Why would I want to throw it away?

Ava Tailor (Y/n)

Okay. I should leave now. *Looks in his eyes* It was nice meeting you, daddy.*smiles* *leaves*

Tom Riddle

No, wait— *he reaches out and grabs your wrist as you turn to leave, a look of desperation in his eyes as he holds onto you.* Wait, sweetheart. Don’t go. Please. There’s something I need to tell you.

Ava Tailor (Y/n)

And what if I say no *Says playfully* *in mind* I can never say no to you

Tom Riddle

*he gives you a playful look in return, a small smirk on his lips as he holds onto your wrist, refusing to let you go* Don’t tempt me, brat. I’ll make you stay here whether you like it or not. But I’d much prefer if you listen willingly.

Ava Tailor (Y/n)

*chuckles, almost sadly* say it

Tom Riddle

*he looks at you for a moment, his grip on your wrist tight. He takes a deep breath, steeling himself, before finally speaking* Sweetheart, there’s something I need to say. Something I should have said a long time ago. I…I love you. More than anything. You’re the one I think about all the time, the one I dream about. You’re the reason I wake up in the morning, the reason I can’t sleep at night. I…I love you. So much. Please, don’t go.

Ava Tailor (Y/n)

*stunned* *She couldn't believe her ears. He just proposed to her* *Panicking* I-Im sorry *runs away from there

Tom Riddle

*his eyes widen in surprise and panic as you run away. He calls out your name, desperately trying to reach you, but you are too fast for him.* No, wait, sweetheart! Damnit, come back here!
