Cosette looked up from her book at the voice giving the boy a smile. “No, not at all,” she answered. “I’m Cosette,” she introduced adding her bookmark to the page she was on and closing her book to give him her full attention.

“Awesome,” he said, his smile growing as he settled down, glancing at the book she was reading for a moment before looking back at her face. “Benji,” he told her gesturing to himself. “Are you liking Hogwarts?”

[riddlemeben]

@cosetteinpieces

Benji had noticed the pretty Beauxbatons girl around a bit before since the other school had arrived, but up until his run in with Lilah he hadn’t bothered to talk to any of them. But now that he found himself formally girlfriend free, he had no reason not to, so when he noticed the Brunette alone in the courtyard he approached her casually. “Hey,” he said, a smile on his face as he came closer. “Do you mind?” he asked, taking a seat next to her.

[riddlemeben]

laylaobvi:

“Are you serious?” she huffed her mouth opening a bit and staying like that for a moment. Closing it again she said, “I’m done. I’m done. I’m like so done,” she said. “Go talk to the other blonde that rejected you,” she told turning on her heels. 

Benji just looked at her rather than responding to her first question, meaning to show that he was completely serious. “I didn’t even do anything,” he argued, annoyed, to her back. 

[riddlemeben]

laylaobvi:

“You’re being so annoying right now,” Layla said crossing her arms.

“You’re being so annoying right now,” he countered stupidly. 

[riddlemeben]

laylaobvi:

“You know that just makes it sound like you haven’t or they’re like mean or something right?” she asked.

“Well, I have and they’re not,” he defended weakly.

[riddlemeben]

laylaobvi:

“What do you mean no? Why not?” Layla asked her attention having had moved on now though she was definitely going to be bringing up the Lilah thing again at some point.  

“I mean no,” he shrugged, wanting to drop the subject altogether. “They’re not done so you can’t see them.”

[riddlemeben]

laylaobvi:

“Okay,” Layla said frowning a bit and crossing her arms. She knew that was true but she still didn’t feel completely reassured. “It still doesn’t feel good when you go sing to another girl,” Layla said. She perked up at the new information. “It matters cus it means you’re thinking about me or feeling something about me or something like that… Can I see them?” she asked in reference to the parts of the song. 

Benji let out a little breath, somewhere between a sigh and an annoyed huff. “It was a stupid mistake,” he defended half heartedly, sick of fighting with the girl. He considers the girl’s question before letting out another breath. “No,” he tells her finally, not bothering to expand on his response. 

[riddlemeben]

laylaobvi:

“No I don’t!” Layla told stepping back. “I know you like having sex with me,” she told and she certainly liked having sex with him, “but have you like even ever written a song for me?” she asked. 

“I’m dating you,” Benji stated, as if this was some kind of catch all for her question. It made enough sense to him anyway. It wasn’t like he dated a lot. “If it was just sex I would have slept with you and left,” he commented, not even thinking about how bad of a review of himself this was, although it was entirely true, and his usual behavior when it came to girls. He hesitated at the girl’s question. “Kind of?” he offered, somewhat awkwardly. “I mean, I’ve written like parts of a song. I’ve never finished one I guess. But what does that even matter?”

[riddlemeben]

laylaobvi:

“Do you even realize how embarrassing that it? Why would you do that!” Layla huffed incredulously. Ben had done pretty horrible things before (just as she had) but this felt like new hights. She’d been hoping one day he’d write a song for her and instead he went and not only wrote a song about another girl but performed it publicly while dating her. “I’m hot. You should want me.”

“I didn’t mean anything by it,” he attempted to defend, though he wasn’t sure it was entirely true. “I don’t know what came over me, it was stupid,” he reached out for the girl to pull her closer. “You know I want you, Layla,” he told her, though his tone definitely came across annoyed, which frankly he was. All this fight was getting exhausting and he really wished that things could settle at least for a moment. 

[riddlemeben]

@laylaobvi

Ben’s intention had not been to upset his girlfriend. In hindsight, it was obvious why she would upset and he didn’t know what exactly had come over him to result in him doing something so stupid. There was just something about Lilah that had completely overwhelmed him. Logically, it didn’t make any sense, especially considering that the last time he had written a song so sappy had been years ago, much less sang it publicly. After the Beauxbatons girl’s polite rejection, he was left with his mixed up feelings which seemed to miraculously fade the further Lilah walked away from him, and then the realization that he had probably just screwed up his relationship. Again.

benjamin thomas riddle → harry potter au

ben’s a slytherin fifth year

he’s a halfblood. his dad was a wizard but his mom is a muggle.

ever since they learned about voldemort and the battle of hogwarts in history of magic people have been making jokes about him being related to voldemort since they have the same last name

no one knows that he and fay actually are related to voldemort, though not in the way you would expect.

the riddle twins are not so distant cousins of tom riddle jr, tom riddle jr’s paternal grandfather, thomas riddle was in fact the brother of ben and fay’s great grand father, benjamin, and ben was named for the two of them

ben and fay knew about the mysterious deaths of their great aunt and uncle as well as their cousin tom riddle sr, but did not learn the facts of how their relatives had died until they came to hogwarts and learned of voldemort’s early victims in history of magic

they have kept the details of their family a secret from their classmates. ben often jokes along with others when they say he must be related to voldemort, though he makes it clear that he is joking, despite knowing the truth

oh and he’s still dating layla here lol
