Chapter 36-Amber's Diary.

(Amber's P.O.V obviously.)

Dear Diary,

Today was the first day back at school. Year 3 already! Tara and James are happy together. We can't separate them most of the time. They love each other and that's what counts I guess. I never wrote about that guy I met in Diagon Alley when I was shopping for Tara's birthday present! His name is Daniel and he transferred to Hogwarts from Sorcière-Magicien Institute in Canada! He's really cute. He has dark brown hair and big green eyes. He went to Tara's birthday party, I invited him.

Everyone in the group seems to be getting along with him fine. He was sorted into Gryffindor! I really need to tell someone about this and quick! I should tell Tara, I know things about her that not even James knows I think! Yes, I think I'll do that now, just I have to get her away from James and I know that will take a while so I'll go to that while I'm thinking about it. I'll write what happens when I tell her.

Signing out, Amber

I put my diary in my nightstand drawer and walked out back to the Common room where Tara was sitting on James' lap and they were talking to Chester, Malcolm and Daniel.

"Hey, Tara, can I talk to you something please?" I said while she was getting up and James was following her. "Alone?" I starred at James as he began to pout like a four-year-old. "Don't worry, I'll bring her back in one piece and you can have her back."

We walk just outside the portrait hole.

"So, what did you want to tell me?" asked Tara curiously.

"I like.someone."

"Wow. My cousin actually likes someone! Who is this someone? Do I know him?"

"Yes, you do know him.its one of the guys in our group excluding James."

"So, Chester, Malcolm or now Daniel."

"He's not a Weasley." I hinted seeing her trying to figure out who it was.

"You like Daniel?"

"It was liking at first sight, not love, just liking.a lot.

I felt myself-turning red. I nodded yes as Tara started giggling.

"Why are you telling me though?" she asked still giggling.

"I don't know, I just needed to tell someone and you were the first person I thought of.I wouldn't tell Kalli or Heather cause they'd probably rip off my head, James would sit and laugh and start blabbing to everyone. Chester and Malcolm don't seem the people to trust."

"Tear tear, I feel so loved." Said Tara fake happily crying.

"Shut up!" I told her but I just broke down in fits of laughter. The sight of Tara trying to act like she was so happy she was crying was funny. "Well I was wondering, there's another ball at Halloween again."

"Ok, I get it, you want me to ask him to ask you to the ball.ok ok, I will.what should we go as this year anyway?"

"Ask me when the time is closer." I said.

We went back to the common room and I went back to the dorm and got out my diary.

Hey, ok I said I would say what happened. Well I told her and she's going to ask him to ask me to the ball! I'm so nervous now! I can't stand it but I think I'll live. Now ideas of what to be for Halloween.

~**~ Week since school started.

Dear Diary,

This is really getting out of hand! I really hope Tara didn't tell him already cause he's been looking at me really.weird! Today, in potions, we were working together, since Tara and James were and Chester and Malcolm were so I had to work with Dan, he didn't get me to do anything! He just told me to relax.until Snape yelled at me to get to work. Oh how I hate Snape! He ruins the best moments.

I should go for dinner now, Tara's calling me. -Amber McMullen

~**~ Week until the ball

Dear Diary,

Ah! The ball is next week! I can't take the pressure! Tara still hasn't told him and its like I'm gonna go nuts if he doesn't ask me! I'm gonna wake Tara up right now and tell her to go tell him.it may be 2 in the morning but right now, I don't care!

-Amber Mcmullen I walked over to Tara's bed and started shaking her. "Tara!! TARA!!" I whispered.

"Mummy, I want a cookies she said rolling over and falling off her bed to the floor staring at me. "What was that for!" she said tiredly.

"You have to ask him now! You have to, you have to, YOU HAVE TO!" I whispered loudly.

"Buts its 2o'clock! Its too early to!"

"Does it look like I care??"

"Fine, I'm going I'm going."
