Chapter11:
January passed fairly quickly and now Harry had a new problem. What to get Diana for Valentine's Day? "So Diana, what do you want for Valentine's Day?" Harry asked Diana.
"I don't want anything." Diana smiled.
"What!?" Hermione looked at her.
"I'm not a Valentine's Day buff. It's a holiday where girly girls wish they have an boyfriend, and those who do, wish their boyfriend would notice them." Diana stare out the window.
"Diana you have some of the weirdest outlooks on everything." Hermione stared at Diana.
"Well, I don't care if you don't want any thing. I'm getting you something." Harry grinned.
"It's a little late don't you think? You have a little less then two days." Diana smirked.
"I'm getting you something. I don't care what you say." Harry smirked back.
***
Days passed quickly and the big day finally came. Diana walked into the Great Hall to find Harry and Ron already eating. "Good Morning!" She said cheerfully.
"Happy Valentine's Day, Diana!" Harry smiled.
"That's today." Diana's cheerfulness faded quickly.
"Yeah, and I succeeded in getting your gift." Harry said.
"Oh." Diana said dully.
"Why do you hate Valentine's Day so?" Ron asked.
"I just don't like it. I don't know why." Diana looked around.
"Diana." A voice said from behind her. They turned around to see Draco standing there. "I got you a gift." He said with a grin.
"You did?" Diana looked at Harry.
"Yeah." He pulled a huge necklace out of his pocket. "It was 20 million Galleons." Diana choked on her pumpkin juice.
"20 million Galleons!" Ron said, falling out of his chair.
"20 million Galleons!" Diana's eyes got wide.
"20 million Galleons." Harry sighed. It looked as if he lost to Draco.
"That's a lot of money. You shouldn't have." Diana's eyes were still big.
"Not really, 20 million Galleons is pocket change." Draco smiled. Ron who had gotten back in his chair suddenly fell back out again.
"Oh my God." Diana looked at Harry, then at the necklace, then at Draco, then at Ron, and then at Harry.
"I feel sick." Ron looked at Harry, who was now pale. "Harry, man, if I were Diana..." He shook his head. "I would have dumped you by now."
"If I were Diana, I would have dumped me too." Harry felt sick.
"Draco, I love the gift, but I can't accept it. I have a boyfriend." Diana said weakly.
"Ok!" Draco walked off.
"That was interesting." Diana sighed.
"Diana, your crazy!" Ron said, with his mouth wide open. Suddenly, he did something no one had ever in there right mind thought Ron would do. He got up and ran after Draco. "Draco, I can turn the other way. I'll take the necklace. Draco! Darling! I love you!" Ron yelled. Diana began to crack up.
"I never thought I would ever see that. I don't think I wanted to." Harry said, with disgust.
"Neither did I." Diana laughed.
"Now my gift feels so pathetic." Harry thought out loud.
"See why I hate Valentine's Day." Diana giggled. Harry wasn't very amused. Diana stopped giggling "Harry, I'm sure what ever you got me is wonderful."
"Not better than Draco's gift." Harry sighed.
"Much better than his. Because yours is from the heart. Even if it were a hand made gift I would love it."Diana smiled.
"Really?"Harry smiled.
"Yeah, but I'm going to hang the concept that I could have had Draco over your head forever." Diana laughed. Harry laughed too.
"Your not going to like it." Harry said weakly.
"I'll love it, I know I will." Diana grinned.
Harry dug into to his pocket and pulled out a locket. "It kinda screamed your name when I saw it."
"Oh Harry!" Diana stared at it. "I love it."
"I knew you won't like... You do?"
"Yeah. I had a locket a long time ago. My mom gave it to me. I lost it the night Voldemort was chasing me." Diana was smiling even more than Harry had ever seen her smile.
"Do want me to help me put it on you?" Harry asked.
"Yeah, if you want." Harry put it on her. It looked perfect. "Your so beautiful." Harry stared at her. Diana wrapped her arms around him. He closed his eyes and just held her.
***
"Now, today, I want to have you work on a disappearing potion." Sirius said. Diana's hand flew up. "What now Diana?" Sirius rolled his eyes.
"I've done this before." Diana said, biting her lip.
"What potion have you not done?" Sirius grunted.
Diana looked around the room. "Um... I've done lots of potions." Diana continued to bite her lip. "I can look up a few in my uncle's books." Diana began to twirl her hair.
"I've looked at those books. Must of them are too advanced for someone your age."
"I've done some potions from those books, there easy." Diana said.
Sirius stared in amazement. "How old were you when your dad and uncle started teaching you potions?" Sirius said, he still looked astounded.
Diana looked around. "I was..." Diana stared at Sirius. " I was four or five, when they taught me my first potion. I was seven when me uncle began to teach me about the dark arts. For protection, of course."
Everyone was now staring at her. Sirius got into his desk and got out a book. He handed it to Diana. "Take a look at that. It's the 7th year book. We might want to move you up." Diana opened the book and turned the pages. Hermione looked jealously at Diana.
***
Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Diana were walking out of there Potions class and heading for Defense Against the Dark Arts. Hermione was not talking to Diana at all, because of what happened in Potions. But Diana hadn't noticed.
"Those potions look so hard." Ron said, looking at the book.
"Not really, just time consuming. The good thing is, I haven't done any of them. Which would make the class not so boring." Diana said shyly. Diana looked down at her watch. "I've got to go."
"But we have class." Harry said, pointing in the direction of where they were suppose to go.
"I know, but I really have to go!" She yelled, running away. "I'll see you in class!"
"Wonder where she's going?" Ron asked.
"Probably skipping." Hermione rolled her eyes.
"She won't skip!" Ron and Harry said together.
"That's right, Miss Goody-Goody would never skip." Hermione said angrily.
"Your just jealous she might get moved up from 6th year potions to 7th year potions." Ron rubbed into Hermione's face.
"Hermione, it's really not her fault that her uncle and father wanted her to start potions early in life." Harry said.
"You would defend her, because she's your girlfriend." Hermione stared angrily at Harry. She could have burned a hole though him.
"No, if Diana were saying things about you, I'd defend you." Harry protested. "Just cause she's better at Potions and Defense against the Dark Arts doesn't mean you should be jealous. Your better at tons of other classes, like Charms and Transfiguration." Hermione rolled her eyes and didn't say another thing until they got into class.
When they got into class, they sat in their normal seats. There classmates kept coming in, but no Diana. Harry was beginning to think she was going to skip.
Suddenly, Diana ran into class just before the bell rang. She wasn't in her uniform. Instead she was in a pair of flares, a green t- shirt, and her mint green tennis shoes. Her hair was in curls and she had make- up on. She sat down next to Harry and smiled. "Hello!" She said.
Hermione gave her a weird look. "Diana, are you feeling ok?" Ron asked. Harry was wondering the same thing.
"Who would you be?" Diana asked, looking very confused.
Ron's eyes got big. "I'm Ron, you know, your friend."
"Oh, the red head!" Diana smiled. Then she looked at Harry. "And who might you be?"
"Harry, your boyfriend." Harry looked insulted.
Her eyes looked toward his forhead. "I'm dating Harry Potter? Cool!"
Diana smiled.
Snape walked in the class, just as the bell rang. "Today, I'm going to show you how to manipulate Polyjuice potion. Which is a basic step to something we're going to get into later. Now, Mr. Black has been kind enough to make the potion for us. We just need to add the hair." Sirius walked in with a huge caldron.
"Can you give me a hand, this is heavy." Sirius asked Snape. Snape helped Sirius carry it over to his desk.
"Thanks, I thought I was going to drop that thing." Sirius huffed.
Harry looked over at the door. 'What's up with Diana? She didn't even know who I was.' Harry began to feel sick. 'Maybe it was a joke. That's it, it's a joke.' He continued to stare at the door.
Just then the door opened. To everyone's surprise, it was Diana. Or a Diana look alike. They were wearing the same thing, there hair and make-up was even done the same way . Everyone stared at the two girls.
Harry looked over at the one that was sitting next to him. "Diana?" He asked. She smiled at him, walked over to the girl standing by the door, and they both laughed. It was like a freaky twin movie.
"Well," Snape smiled. "One of these two is the real Diana. Which one is her? And the other question that might be on your mind, who is the other person?" Snape said.
"We figured The Salem School has learned how to do this stuff, why not use Diana and one of her friends?" Sirius said.
Then, the girl by the door tapped the other girl with her wand. A girl with blonde hair, blue eyes, and lots of freckles appeared. "I'm confused." Neville said. "Who's she?"
"This is my second half!" Diana giggled.
"I'm Sara Kerckhove! Nice to meet ya'll!" Sara yelled.
"This is my fork!" Diana hugged Sara.
"And this is my spoon!" She hugged Diana back. They both looked so happy.
"And we're spork!" Diana yelled.
"What have done?" Snape said, hitting his head.
"Come one! You know you love me Uncle Sevi." Sara laughed.
"I told you never to call me that." He grunted.
"Hehehe! You can't do anything! I'm not a student or your niece. I can conquer! Bahahahaha!" Sara laughed.
"This is your best friend." Hermione rolled her eyes.
"She's just happy to be in Europe." Diana laughed.
"Yeah, just a bit hyper!" Sara smiled.
"Just a bit, right." Diana laughed.
"Well, I am a little upset. I'm not dating Harry Potter anymore." Sara sniffed, and then began to laugh.
Diana and Sara hugged once more. " This is so cool I haven't seen you in, forever." Diana smiled.
"Seems like it doesn't it." Sara sniffed.
"Yeah, it does." Diana sniffed too. "Well, we have all day to hang out!" Diana looked her uncle. "Can we?" Diana and Sara gave innocent smiles.
"Fine." He sighed.
They both ran up and hugged him. "We love you uncle!" They yelled, and then left.
***
Harry and Hermione walked into the common room to find Diana and Ron talking. "Hey!" Harry said.
"Hi! Hi Hermione! What's up?!" Diana smiled. Hermione stomped off. "Did I do something wrong?" Diana asked.
"She's just jealous. So where's your friend?" Harry asked.
"She left." Diana sniffed. "Why's Hermione jealous?" Diana asked.
"Long story. So, what were you two talking about?" Harry asked.
"About who could be putting the curse on everyone." Ron answered.
"We're both confused." Diana said.
"You both would be." Harry laughed. Ron and Diana laughed too.
"Are you saying we're dumb?" Ron asked.
"No, I can't figure it out either." Harry laughed.
Diana smiled. "I'm tired. I'm going to bed. Night Ron." She said to Ron. Then, she walk over to Harry and kissed him. "Night Harry."
"Night Diana." Harry smiled.
"Night Diana." Ron said. Then, she went upstairs. "So, how about a game of chess?" Ron asked.
"Sure, I have a feeling I'm going to win." Harry said.
"Right." Ron laughed.
A/n: Thanks to everyone who has reviewed. I love you forever for it. And keep it coming. I need to tell you that Sara Kerckhove is based one my very best friend, Harmony Slytherin.(Thank for your presonality!) Now, onto my dedication...
