Chapter eight

~~The Personal and Private Diary of Maggie Thomas~~

Dear Journal,

MUHAHAHA! My plan worked. I was sorted into Gryffindor!! Phase two worked too, the spell to make me irresistible. Harry broke up with that awful Weasley girl and is going with me to the ball………….

~~Ginny and Maggie~~

"What are you writing Maggie" a cold voice said. Maggie turned around. Ginny Weasley looked down at her scowling.

"I'm writing in my diary, not that it's any of your business." Maggie replied coolly.

"You stole my boyfriend."

"No." Maggie said indigently. "He CHOSE me over you." Ginny lost her temper at this. She whipped out her wand.

"Say----that----again. I dare you to."

"He……chose…….me…….over……you." Maggie said slowly as if Ginny was stupid. "I don't think you want to try to curse me. I know almost every curse there is."

"Well if you can't talk you can't curse me now can you? LOCOMOTOR STOMA!!" Maggie found that she could not move her mouth. 'Ha! The lip-locker curse? That is SOO juvenile' Maggie thought. She went off in search of Harry.

"Hi Maggie." He said. Maggie grabbed a piece of parchment and wrote. 'Say ALOHOMORA STOMA.' the paper said. "Ok then." Harry pulled out his wand. "ALOHOMORA STOMA." he said.

"Thanks Harry." Maggie said massaging her jaw. "Your ex hexed me."

"Ignore Ginny she's just jealous." Harry said reassuringly. Ginny walked over holding a small book.

"Harry, I need to show you something." Ginny said.

"I'll be right back Maggie." Harry said as he walked away with Ginny. "What do you want Ginny?" Harry said angrily. "And why did you hex Maggie?"

"Look, you need to see this." Ginny pulled out the diary and turned to the page Maggie had been writing on. Harry read the journal entry.

"Ginny, you could have written that."

"Harry, you know my handwriting looks nothing like this."

"True, but why would she do this?"

"I don't know but pretend nothing has happened. You don't know this ok?"

"Alright." Harry said. "Meet me in the Owlrey at midnight." he whispered. "Ginny stop ok? I like Maggie now get over it!!" Harry said as he winked at Ginny as he walked back over to Maggie. He said goodnight to her and went to bed.
