Seeking for Fairy Godmother

Walking into a dimly lit hallway was a good excuse to hide your anger. That wrench had the nerve to yell at his sweet and innocent little darling.

“I’m sorry.” Harry whispered so that only the two of them heard.

What if they believed his Aunt Petunia? If so, will they hate him like the neighbors or the school? If so, will they stop loving him? If so, where would he go? He already loved them, and it was the first time he felt safe and happy, then suddenly it would be gone because his Aunt hated him for existing.

He unconsciously grips Tom’s hand, and Tom suddenly rubs his back gently. He looked into Tom's eyes and saw not hatred but concern.

“What’s wrong, my love?” Tom rubs Harry’s back soothingly.

“I’m not a thief. I know it's a bad thing to do. Please believe me?” He hopes at least Tom wouldn’t believe his Aunt. “Don’t hate me, please?” he mumbles softly.

“I would never dare to hate you, my love.” Tom wiped away his tears with his thumb and smiled softly at him. “Hush now, it’s alright. I strongly believe in you.”

He hugged Tom so tightly, and never letting go, he buried himself in Tom’s embrace, not caring for those who were watching them. He was so grateful that he had a good friend like Tom and wished his Mama and Papa could believe in him too.

Tom hugged him back in return to give his beloved assurance. He never felt this kind of rage before, and he just wanted to kill those filthy pigs. Speaking of pigs, he glared at the filthy pig that was called Dudley.

Dudley was hoping he would not die tonight, just looking at Tom’s glare making him have a nightmare later on. Even though he was bigger, he was still afraid of Tom. He never thought that his freak cousin would make a friend with Tom who was a devil. He flinched when Tom spoke suddenly.

“I apologize for what happened earlier,” Tom smiled at them while still cradling his little darling’s head. “Anyways let us just enjoy this night without meddling in the affairs of the adults.”

Tom opened the door and revealed what’s inside of the room.

The place was perfect, just like what Dudley imagined how his own room should look like. He once asked his parents to make his room more spacious so that he can fill it with lots of toys and even have a little playground where there are swings, slides, and seesaws. But unfortunately, he was told that it was impossible because their house was small and they couldn’t afford it.

Tom smirked at the filthy pig, who was fascinated at the room that was filled with his beloved things.

“As you can see, this room was designed for our dearest,” Tom turns his darling round to make them look at him, then proudly says. “Everyone in this house was eager to make this room into a paradise just for him.”

It was true everyone helped, even his darling. They make sure everything is perfect and safe to play with. His parents made sure that he got everything he wanted, even though he was shy and didn't ask for anything from them. He is indeed a lovely thing.

Dudley jerked his head toward his freak cousin. He must’ve heard mistakenly, right? Why would they give him something like this? He's a freak, and he did not deserve anything, just like his parents always told him. But why does he always get good things?

“Heads up, my love. Let us enjoy this night, okay?” Harry nods at him.

“Oh wow, Harry! This is amazing! I’ll ask my father to make my room like this, so that we can also play in my house!” Draco exclaimed.

“I would love that.” Harry’s mood changed a little bit, and that’s enough for Tom.

“Now then, why don’t you give Draco and Astoria a little tour, while the rest of us would mind our own business.” Tom smiles sweetly towards his beloved to put him at ease.

Harry looks a little worried and gives a little peek at his cousin. “What about, Dudley?”

“Don’t worry about him, my love.” Tom gave him a look, “I’ll take care of him,” then he gave a terrifying smile.

“You’re not playing with us?”

“Later, my love. Go on now.” Harry nods and walks over to Draco and Astoria.

“Now,” Tom looks at Dudley again, “listen to me, Pig. What your pathetic mother did back there was upsetting.”

Dudley can’t help but squirm at Tom’s gaze. “I’m sorry, Tom. I-I didn’t know mum would do that, if I knew-”

“Silence!” Tom cut him off. “The next time she will do that, I will cut her tongue off, and I’ll make her swallow it.”

Dudley looked at the other children behind Tom. They would no doubt be looking at him in horror, but they seemed bored and didn’t care. Is this person how the rich people normally do, or they’re used to Tom’s threats? No matter what, he really wanted to go home and never come back to this hellish place again.

Tom looked at his darling, who was playing with Draco and Astoria across the room. Then he turned his attention back to the filthy pig and smirked.

“Why don’t I give you a tour? That would be nice.” Tom smiles at him charmingly, “follow me then.”

They walk to the opposite side, away from the younger ones. “As you can see, everything here belongs to my sweet Harry.” He looks at Dudley dead in the eye. “I mean everything in here is his.”

Dudley just gulped and nodded at Tom’s warning. “Including myself, of course.” He says proudly, “And also these beauties right here that I recently bought for him.” Tom points out the mini-cars that have their parking spot.

“Wait a minute!” Cyrus gets a closer look at one of the mini-cars, “all of them?”

“Why, yes of course,” Tom says proudly.

“You bought this using your own money?” Cyrus asked suspiciously, “not from your parents?”

“Well, you could say it’s from my inheritance,” Tom replied.

“Hey! My parents never let me touch mine until I turned a decent adult! That’s not fair!” Cyrus whined.

Daphne rolled her eyes. “That’s because you’re going to waste it on nonsense.”

Dudley couldn’t help but stare at the cars lining up in envy. Tom must have been joking about this paradise room belonging to his freak cousin.

“Jealous?” Tom asked him, and he shook his head in denial. “Oh, come now. Don’t be shy.” Tom smirked at him.

“N-no, I’m not that jealous.” He replied.

“Why don’t you try one?” Tom offered. “Besides, this is a rare opportunity for someone..” he looked at him up and down, “someone unfortunate like you.” He smiled charmingly at him.

His ears turn red, and Tom humiliates him in front of others. He tried to refuse, but Tom gave him a cold stare.

“Now, Pig,” Tom said in a cold voice. “Don’t make me say it twice.” He pushed him towards the cars in front of them.

“Choose one.” Dudley pointed at the red car in panic. “Well, you have a good taste. That one is my beloved’s favorite.” He pushed him again.

“Have a seat, Pig.” Tom opened the driver’s seat like a true gentleman.

Dudley heard someone chuckling behind him, he had no choice but to obey Tom’s order.

“Are you comfortable?” Tom asked sweetly, to which Dudley nodded. “Good.”

It was indeed very comfortable, and if only Tom wasn’t there, he would be jumping for joy like he always does.

“Now, Tom, don't scare him too much,” Cyrus jokingly said. “He might pee on it.” They laughed.

“That would be a problem.” Tom looks at Dudley once again. “You wouldn’t, right?” Dudley shook his head.

Harry was having a tea party with Draco and Astoria, he got distracted when he heard laughter and looked in Tom’s direction. He got scared at the sight, his cousin was sitting in the red car that Tom gave him. What if his cousin would destroy it and would blame him as always? Will Tom believe him and hate him?

He got up at the table leaving his playmates behind, and walked in Tom’s direction nervously.

Tom was looking at the filthy pig squirm in fear when suddenly someone tugged his shirt. Someone dares to disturb him, he is annoyed at the idiot who tries to touch him, but his annoyance goes away when he sees his beloved.

“Tom?” His sweet Harry calls his name.

“Yes, my dear?” Tom smiles at him and pulls him closer.

“Uhm,” his little darling was looking at the pig nervously.

“No worries, dear.” Tom assured him, “Dudley promised me that he would be careful.”

“Right, Dudley?” He looked Dudley dead in the eye, Dudley couldn’t speak and just nodded.

“Go now,” Tom kissed his forehead before Harry ran back to his playmates.

“Such a sweet little thing,” he then faced Dudley. “Now, this model has been customized for the safety of my beloved.”

Tom somehow got what looks like a controller. “He’s allowed to ride it, but just for his safety, I had asked one of the servants to make a remote control."

He suddenly starts the car startling Dudley. Then it starts moving, in panic, he finally looks at Tom with pleading eyes. “Tom? I-I’m scared.”

“Don’t be,” Tom looked pleased. “It’s very safe, after all, this is for the safety of my dear.”

“Wow! That’s amazing!” Cyrus shouted excitedly. “Can I try? Pretty please?”

Tom looked at Cyrus and smirked at him. “Sure, just make sure you don’t hit it on a wall. My Harry would be upset.”

“I promise! I swear on my life!” Tom gave him the remote, and Cyrus hastily pushed the buttons while laughing.

“Let me play next.” Daphne tries to steal the remote from her brother.

“Shut up and go play something else.” Cyrus shoo her away, which pissed her off, and tries to snatch the remote control again.

While both of them tried to get hold of the remote, Dudley was scared to death. The car was moving all around. At some point, he might throw up because the car is now spinning. He wished Tom would take pity on him, but somehow Tom was happy to see him like this.

He just closed his eyes, hoping that this would end quickly before he got hurt. He didn’t realize that he was out of the room. He gripped the steering wheel tightly and was almost at the stairs when he opened his eyes. He closed his eyes again and called out to his mother.

“Oh, dear.” Tom sounded bemused. “Look at you.”

Dudley opened his eyes again, and the first thing he saw was a pair of familiar amber eyes.

“You’re nothing, but a pathetic piece of trash that shouldn’t exist in the first place.” Tom stared at him cruelly.

“Aw, he’s shaking like a leaf,” Cyrus said jokingly.

“The poor little piglet must’ve been scared,” Daphne added.

“Are you trying to get revenge for your beloved, Tom?” Lucius asked curiously.

“Of course not, revenge is beneath me.” Tom replied and smirked evilly, “Accidents, however, will happen.”

With that said, Tom would kill him. It was too much, and he couldn't breathe, it was as if all his air had been sucked out of his lungs. His vision began to spin, and he suddenly felt dizzy. Finally, everything went black.
