*The next*
I woke up early, not just early too too early. Tom was still sleeping. Last night was great, after so many months I slept without nightmares and I should thank Tom for it. It's weird that I felt safe with a psychopath in my bed... something makes me feel good when I'm with him, it's a new feeling, I've never felt it before, not even with Theo. I push the thoughts aside and got out of the bed quickly but quietly.
I don't want Tom to wake up because right now I will be working on the Horcrux notebook. I went to dad's office or maybe my great grandfather's office in this era. I cleaned it as fast as I could, once finished I opened one of the secret drawers and placed the notebook there. It will be hard to find it there but of course no one will keep such a valuable notebook without some protection, I don't want Tom to suspect me.
I once again tried to use the cleaning charms and after several failed attempts it finally worked. "Scourgify scourgify scourgify..." I don't know how many times I had spelled it "Scourgify." I said vanishing the last bit of dirt left in the house.
I jumped onto the sofa as soon as I finished all the work and that's when I realized I was hungry.
I kicked my legs in annoyance! Ah how can I forget this ?!! There are no fucking house elves here!! I would have asked Dumbledore to arrange one if I remembered. I got up cursing myself. Maybe I and Tom will die of starvation because I don't know how to fucking cook! It's something I was never good at and never wanted to learn but now I will have to manage something to keep myself alive because I don't think Tom knows how to cook. I stood in the kitchen like an idiot and stared at the utensils as if they were some tough Muggle maths equations that make no sense.
After a long moment of staring and thinking I thought to make a pancake, it seemed pretty easy and I remember dad making it. 'It's simple, make a batter then burn it...but when dad burnt it mom threw it on his face... anyways I should give it a try at least.' I thought to myself and took a deep breath 'At first gather the ingredients-flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, milk, eggs and butter.'
I started searching for the ingredients, the salt and sugar were easy to find, I dropped an egg and spilled some milk on the floor, and successfully found the butter and baking powder too. But the flour was the hardest to reach to, it was on the highest shelf but I still managed to get on my tows and reach to it. When the bag was half way through I slipped on the eggs and milk but thankfully I quickly handled myself before falling. "Thud!" And the large bag of flour fell on me.
*Tom's POV*
"Thud!"
A sound came and I woke up. I looked beside me and y/n wasn't there.
Did she just fall from the bed ?! I got out of the bed as fast as I could to help her but she wasn't even there in the room. I ran downstairs and was shocked seeing everything so clean, in the daylight the house really looks magnificent. A sound of someone coughing brought me back to my senses. No not someone, it sounds like y/n is coughing. It didn't take me too long to find out the source.
I rushed in the kitchen and it took me a moment to process everything. I burst out in laughter as I saw her covered in flour.
"Don't just fucking laugh idiot!!" She yelled still coughing.
"Are you being a white Dementor for Halloween ?" I laughed and she got more annoyed.
"If you don't stop laughing I'm going to break you nose!"
"Okay okay princess I get it." I was still giggling.
"Tom!! I'm warning you for the last time."
"Fine tell me how this happened?"
"I tried to make pancakes." She made a sad face and looked at the ingredients.
"You should go wash yourself, I'll take care of this mess." I looked at her once again and couldn't help but laugh, she walked out of the kitchen like an angry child "You look magnificent by the way." I shouted after her "Oh fuck off Tommy boy !!" She shouted back. Really?! She has the audacity to call me that!
