Author's note: Sorry its been so long! I am back to regular updates now though. Hope you like the chapter, please review!

September the 2nd

Though it still feels like the first as I haven't gone to bed yet, well I went to bed just not to sleep. I can't help it, I can't sleep. I just lie there and think about 'the gorgeous one'. I don't mind thinking about him of course but I really need to get some sleep. Otherwise I will have bags under my eyes and then he certainly won't fancy me!

We get out timetables today, I know I wont be in the same lessons as him as he is in the year above but I hope we are at least near each other so that I can accidentally 'bump' into him. I just wish he would go out with me! I mean I'm no model but I'm okay looking and I try to be nice to everyone. What is wrong with me??

What I need is a plan, I already know what I want and I just need to work towards getting it. Hmmm….how to make him realise he loves me?

Well, first of all is appearance but I took care of that on the train.

Second? How about brains? He wouldn't go out with anyone stupid. I'm not thick but I hardly get the best grades in the class. I guess I will have to pull my socks up a bit this year. Mum will be pleased if no one else.

Third? Well, he needs to realise how kind I am. Maybe I could pay some first year to fall over near him and then I can rush over and be all helpful, I would need to find some money first though.

Talking about money… would money bother him? Is the reason he doesn't love me the fact that I am poor? I don't think Harry is the type, I know he's not. I'm just being silly. Besides he's best friends with my brother and he's certainly no richer than I am. So what else would he look for in a girlfriend? Maybe I should ask Ron though he would probably laugh in my face and then tease me about it for the rest of my life. How about Hermione? Hermione! Why had I never thought of her before? She's perfect!

Gotta go talk to Hermione!

--

I guess she wasn't happy about being woken up. But oh well, I got some answers!

I really don't understand that girl! She doesn't speak sense. I asked her and she started speaking in riddles. I'll try and remember exactly what she said…

What would hurt you more than anything if you saw Harry doing it? You should do that to make him realise that it hurts him when you do it and therefore make him realise he has feelings for you. You are meant to be together, you know that, I know that, make him know that!

And then I was just leaving (looking extremely confused) when she shouts after me.

He wants what he can't have!

I mean, what's that supposed to mean? He can have me, for sure! So he doesn't want me? And what does she mean what hurts me more than anything when I see Harry doing it? What does Harry do that hurts me? Its what he doesn't do which hurts me, namely ask me out! And surely Hermione was not asking me to hurt Harry!? That's horrible! I could never hurt Harry.

She wouldn't explain, not even when I begged her to. I guess I will have to work it out for myself, one bit at a time.

What hurts me more than anything when I see Harry doing it? Well, I guess if he kissed another girl it would hurt more than anything. Hmmm, yes that fits. Now onto the next bit…

WHAT!? HERMIONE WANTS ME TO KISS SOMEONE ELSE TO MAKE HARRY FIND OUT HE LOVES ME!? THAT'S, THAT'S, THAT'S…

A pretty good idea actually, why didn't I think of that? If Harry gets upset when he sees me kissing someone else then he must discover that he loves me…unless he doesn't. NO! I will not think like that!

The second part was easy, make Harry realise he loves you. Kissing was just the way to do that! And now the last part makes sense! He wants what he can't have. If he can't have me then it makes me more desirable, right?

I can't wait to do this! I am way too excited to sleep! I may just lie down and think about the moment he discovers he loves me…

--

I just had a thought! Who am I going to kiss!? I have never kissed anyone before, I have no idea how its done. AHHHHH! For Harry to know that someone else kissed me I would have to do it in front of him! This could turn into the most embarrassing moment in my life! If I do it wrong then he would be turned off me forever!

There is no one other than Harry who I want to kiss! What am I going to do??

I will have to kiss someone Harry knows, maybe someone in his dormitory. Hmmm… Neville, Ron, Seamus or Dean. Certainly not Neville! That's a little harsh, but he just really isn't my type. Not that I am sure what my type is, well I do know. My type is Harry but other than that, who knows!

Well, Ron can go straight out. There is no way in hell I am kissing my brother! Besides I doubt Harry would feel very threatened if I kissed my brother. Seamus or Dean? Dean or Seamus? I guess I will flip a coin…

Heads its Seamus, Tails its Dean. Here I go then…

Up it goes and it lands on…
