Summary
As Tom Riddle makes his Prefect run, he comes across a bespectacled green-eyed child with messy black hair hiding in a broom closet. Tom is curious and desires to keep this child to himself. So, he does the sensible thing and hides him in the Slytherin Common Room.
Note
Hey, new story! Listen, the idea of Tom Riddle being absolutely ruthless to anyone and keeping his Dark Lord agenda but secretly being the sweetest when it comes to Harry—sign me up! I was not a fan of the time travel thing before, but...sometimes it's necessary. So here's Harry Potter and Tom Riddle attending Hogwarts together, but with my take on it.
