Okay, does anyone want to know the real reason I updated so fast? Skip this part if you don't, but they're torture clips TheNerdHerd sent me to make me finish the chapter…Yes, I am in love with Remus Lupin…and yes, this chapter was posted at 9:59 pm and it was due at 10:00 pm.
*TheNerdHerd turns and faces the camera*
TheNerdHerd: Welcome back to Who Wants To Be Galleonair! Right now we have Remus Lupin in the hotseat with two days at stake! Alright Remus are you ready for your next question?
Remus: I sure am TheNerdHerd, shoot.
TheNerdHerd looks at the computer screen in front of her.
TheNerdHerd: Finish this sentence. Love'sDaughter is *blank* her chapter.
Is it A.) Finish it just before time runs out.
B.) Not going to finish
C.) Finish her chapter or
D.) we don't know.
Remus you have no lifelines left. The time starts now, you have 25 seconds.
Remus thinks hard
Remus: B.
TheNerdHerd: Final answer?
Remus: Final answer
TheNerdHerd: Ohh i'm sorry Remus, the answer was D. You lose but thank you for playing.
Remus; It was good to be here. At least I can go home to my beautiful wife Love'sDaughter.
TheNerdHerd: Nuh uh uh, not unless she finishes her chapter.
Bars clamp around Remus' wrists.
Remus: Love'sDaughter!
TheNerdHerd: Two days.
Screen goes black.
And there was also…
*hums Jeopardy theme song*
Host: James Potter please pick a category.
James: Uh, How Long Will It Take? for 1000 galleons
Host: Love'sDaughter is typing up a chapter. She has two days.
Lily Evans' raises her hand.
Host: Lily simply press the button you don't need to raise your hand.
Lily pressed button.
Host: Lily?
Lily: What is a minute before times out?
Host: Correct. Lily is now in the lead with 2500 galleons, James in second with 1050 galleons, Sirius in third with 30 galleons and Remus in fourth with Two Days.
Isn't she evil? Anyway, so now you know.
WOW! 5,471 hits for this story! You guys are totally amazing!
I know, the beginning part of this chapter is pretty small. Never mind, it's miniscule and pathetic. I'm sorry!
Chapter 8
Malfoy and…Malfoy
"Severus," Draco whispered. The man snored and turned over. "Déjà vu," he muttered. Malfoy noticed a book lying on his godfather's chest and picked it up curiously. "I wonder what this is."
The Slytherin leafed through the book and chuckled. "No way. Sev's diary?" he realized. "Oh, this is good. 'Hermione's beautiful'? Severus had a crush on Granger!"
He took the diary into his room and began reading it more thoroughly. "Oh, Potter's diary. I didn't know Potter kept a diary," he said and opened to a fairly recent page. He hesitated a moment, wondering if this was the right thing to do, but his curiosity won out. Malfoy looked down at the book and began to read.

Dear Diary,
Malfoy's going to stay with Dad for this weekend until after next weekend! Apparently, Mr. Malfoy wants him to spend time with his godfather. And Dad's making me stay down in his rooms so I can "get over my grudge with Draco". I don't want to get over my grudge with Malfoy! He's a slimy Slytherin and an inbred pureblood. And he hates me. And his dad's a death eater. And he's known Dad longer. What if Dad spends all his time with Malfoy and decides that he likes him better, and un-adopts me, and I have to go back to the Dursley's, and I die, and he doesn't even feel bad or come to my funeral. And it will all be because of Malfoy! I hate him.

Dear Diary,
Malfoy is staying in my room! MY ROOM! Dad says that it will help us get over our nemesis-ism if we're forced to share a room. Yeah, right. Like that will ever happen. I'm trying to ignore him right now. He's talking to Blaise who he invited into MY ROOM! There's a reason that it's my room, and he shouldn't just bring people in here without asking! I suppose that Blaise isn't that bad, at least he's one of my semi-friends. If he had brought Crabbe or Goyle in here or-Merlin forbid-Pansy Parkinson he'd be kicked out. I'd go get Dad or I'd drag them out of here myself. Okay, I'm just going to go to bed early. I wish I was allowed to stay in Gryffindor tower with Ron and Hermione instead of "becoming friends" with Malfoy.

Dear Diary,
I've figured out a solution! I found a bunch of duct tape in my trunk from who knows how long ago and divided MY room into his side and my side. Then, I taped a sheet down the middle so I didn't have to see him! It's a brilliant idea! We're stuck in here all day because we got in a fight that involved a couple of spells last night, so Dad punished us by making u stay in our room except for meals and to go to the loo.

Dear Diary,
Dad took down my sheet and the duct tape. Git. He also took away all my stuff- even books and homework! – and locked us in for another day. Draco and I have been glaring at each other for about three hours. Dad didn't take away my diary- er -journal though, so I'm just going to write for a while.
So…why was this book pre-printed to say Dear Diary? When I figured out the charm to add pages, it copied the other ones, so they all say Dear Diary and have a place for the date and stuff.
We have our last quidditch match next weekend. It's against Slytherin, and we're going to whoop their slimy butts. Especially Malfoy's.
OWLs are starting soon. Like, next week soon. I still don't see the point in taking them, but Dad says I have to. Hermione agrees, and Ron thinks that I should be skipping school and just doing whatever I want to. And I can't study because of Malfoy! I'll have to cram tomorrow before OWLs on Tuesday!
Um… Marry had a little lamb- no, that's way too boring to write out.
Malfoy is a sneaky git, sneaky git, sneaky git! Malfoy is a sneaky git and my godbrother, too.
No, that's way too depressing to go another verse.
It won't get out of my head! Fine, I'll do more verses, but only because I have nothing better to do. Actually, I do, but I'm stuck in here.
I met him at a robe shop one day, robe shop one day, robe shop one day. I met him at a robe shop one day; he was a git at eleven, too.
He said I shouldn't be friends with Ron, friends with Ron, friends with Ron. He said I shouldn't be friends with Ron, so I told him back off…dude.
He tossed a rememberall, rememberall, rememberall. He tossed a rememberall and I got on the quidditch team.
He was scared in the forbidden forest, forbidden forest, forbidden forest. He was scared in the forbidden forest and Hagrid's dog Fang was too.
He set a snake on me in a duel, in a duel, in a duel. He set a snake on me in a duel so I spoke parseltongue to it.
Everyone thought I was the heir of Slytherin, heir of Slytherin, heir of Slytherin. Everyone thought I was the heir of Slytherin but I knew that they were wrong.
Tricked Malfoy by using polyjuice potion, polyjuice potion, polyjuice potion. Tricked Malfoy by using polyjuice potion because I looked like Goyle.
Mione punched Malfoy in the face, in the face, in the face. Mione punched Malfoy in the face and he was crying.
He made badges that said Potter stinks, Potter stinks, Potter stinks. He made badges that said Potter stinks and also said Cedric rules.
Moody turned him into a ferret, into a ferret, into a ferret. Moody turned him into a ferret and it was brilliant.
Now I'm stuck in here with Malfoy, with Malfoy, with Malfoy. Now I'm stuck in here with Malfoy, and I'm supposed to call him Draco.
Now I'm getting really bored, really bored, really bored. Now I'm getting really bored so I will stop writing.

Dear Diary,
Sirius is dead. He's dead and it's all my fault. I just had to listen to that stupid vision and go to the Department of Ministries and try to save him. I should have told Dad instead of just rushing off and getting him killed. And I got my friends hurt as well!

A/N: Thanks for telling me what I should do about the final battle! It sounds like I should do both. I had a lot of fun writing the Malfoy song…it's all to the tune of Mary Had A Little Lamb. Sorry if I bored you.
Please review and tell me if you liked it! Or if you see any mistakes. Should Malfoy get caught with Harry's diary or should he be able to return it without anyone finding out? I just thought that it would be kind of funny if he was the one to read Harry complaining and mocking him.
