A/N : I have started planning the fourth story of my series so when this story is finished, I should have the first chapter of that ready to post immediately, but, back to this one first...thanx so much to all those who reviewed the last chapter; sasha, Crazy Canuck, Lozzi, max4cast, Starbright Moonlight, swim6516, silvertongue, ThePopGurlz, blueside, macdeniken, kapies, Lexi, Cassandra Anthemyst - it really means a lot. Next I'd like to remind you that there are parts of this that I added and made up (in all the chapters not just this one) to make the story flow better. Therefore, if you come to any parts and think 'I don't remember that from the movie' or 'did that actually happen exactly like that?' it's probably because I've taken a few liberties with the storyline.

Anyway, now I've said all that, on with the story...

(Disclaimer : see chapter 1)

Thursday

It's a week since I've written here, but I really haven't had that much to say. Life has been moving along as usual, and nothing exciting is happening. I'm still in love with Mia, in case you were wondering (Why do I treat this book like a person?) Anyway, I haven't seen much of Miss Thermopolis lately. She always seems to be at her Grandmothers house after school and she hardly ever comes over to see Lilly. At school, I get to talk to her occasionally but not much, because she is in a different grade. Plus, Mia is still obsessed with Josh 'I-think-I'm-so-cool' Bryant - god only knows why! I saw them today. They bumped into each other near the lockers. Well, more accurately, Mia bumped into him. It's kind of surprising that she didn't see him coming given that she's usually watching his every move, and yes, I only know that because I'm watching her. She apologised to him, for bumping into him, and he basically ignored her as her eyes glazed over and she watched him walk away. I almost hurled - it was disgusting.

Mia walked over to Lilly and said something, I was too far away to hear what, but it must have been something about her having to visit her Grandma, again, because Lilly started yelling, 'Has your Grandma turned into the big bad wolf?!' as loud as she could, and when it comes to my sister, that's pretty loud.

Anyway, changing the subject, but not entirely, I have noticed most of this diary is about Mia. As if the girl doesn't already fill most of my heart and my thoughts, now she is filling these pages too. Unfortunately, it is unlikely that she will ever know just how much of my life she controls.

Friday

I was very proud of Mia today. She finally stood up to my sister! Yes, that's right, shy quiet little Mia yelled at the frightening Lilly Moscovitz. I guess I should start from the beginning. I was sitting up on the balcony when I saw the limo pull up outside. I yelled to Lilly that our ride had arrived and then walked down to the car. I thanked Joe for the ride and then moved to open the back door and get in. Just as I went to put my hand on the handle the door opened anyway and there she was, Mia looking more beautiful than I had ever seen her before in my life. I must gave been staring more than I thought because she asked me what was wrong. Thankfully, I didn't have to answer because Lilly appeared and started saying things like 'who destroyed you' and 'you look ridiculous, you should sue'. I just stood there like an idiot staring and I'm pretty sure when Lilly said Mia looked weird I said she looked attractive. Fortunately I don't think she noticed what I'd said, because I was more or less drowned out by Lily's yelling anyway.

My sister spent the whole limo ride yelling and screaming about Mia's appearance and her attitude, and I guess I should have come to her defence, but I couldn't believe how beautiful she looked. Don't get me wrong, Mia was always beautiful, but now, I didn't think it was possible but she was even more gorgeous than before. I was in stunned silence for most of the journey and when we arrived near the school Lilly was still yelling. Eventually Mia just lost it and yelled back for Lilly to shut up.

"Just because your hair sucks, get off mine!" she shouted and I was seriously impressed, no-one, not even my parents, yell back at Lilly, well not usually anyway. I thanked Mia, shook her hand and smiled at her, which only annoyed my sister even more. She basically told me to get a life, but I didn't care what she thought.

"Calm down. Breathe!" I told her, before walking away. I don't know what happened after that, but when I turned around and looked back at them a few moments later they were doing their 'secret handshake' that they made up when we were kids (they think I don't know about it, but I do). Then they were walking along, arms linked, giggling like idiots. I'm glad they made up - it makes it easier for me to see Mia. I know, I'm selfish. I should be glad they are friends again for their sake, but mostly I'm glad for myself.

A/N : As always, please review, and the next chapter should be up in the next couple of days.
