Tom Riddle paced back and forth in the dimly lit room, his thoughts consumed by a desire to win back Y/N, his ex-girlfriend. His younger brother, Matteo, watched him with a mixture of concern and curiosity.

"Tom, you need to calm down. Being too overbearing and protective is what drove her away in the first place," Matteo remarked, trying to reason with his older brother.

Tom shot him a sharp look, "I am aware of that, Matteo. That's precisely why I need a plan to show her that I can be what she needs."

Matteo sighed, "Alright, spill. What do you have in mind?"

A devious glint sparked in Tom's eyes as he outlined his plan. "We need to create a scenario where she realizes she can't live without me. A fake stalker. Someone she thinks is a real threat, but when she seeks protection, it's me she turns to."

Matteo raised an eyebrow, "A fake stalker, Tom? Are you sure about this?"

Tom nodded confidently, "Trust me, she needs to see that I can be the one to keep her safe. I need to be her protector, not just some overbearing boyfriend."

Matteo thought for a moment, then smirked, "I could be the fake stalker. I'm good at sneaking around, and she won't suspect a thing."

Tom scoffed at the idea, "Absolutely not, Matteo. What if she runs to me for help, and I end up having to hurt the stalker? I won't risk hurting my own brother."

Matteo nodded in understanding, realizing the gravity of the situation. "Fair point. So, what's the plan then?"

Tom grinned, "We'll use a bit of magic, Matteo. Imperio. We'll cast it on an innocent bystander, make them believe they're the stalker. That way, when Y/N runs to me, I can swoop in, save the day, and prove she needs me."

Matteo hesitated, but eventually nodded, "Alright, let's do it."

The brothers spent hours crafting the plan and practicing the Imperius Curse. Once they were confident, they found a suitable candidate, cast the spell discreetly, and set the plan in motion.
