A/N: Fans of Lee Jordan should not read on. I have nothing against him, but I needed someone for his part that isn't normally a main character. He is very OOC. Rating may go up for violence. I'm going to give yall a few notes before I continue. Mel is an American from Oklahoma in her fourth year. Dumbledore came to her personally when she was eleven to give her the opportunity to go to a wizarding school because there are none where she lives, and she is a very powerful witch that supposedly could hurt someone if not properly trained. On to the story!
September 3 -
8:50 a.m. - Charms class with Hufflepuff - I had a chat with Ginny at breakfast about the note. It didn't go the way I expected.
I sat down at the table and showed Ginny the note. She said, "I think you should give him a shot-"
"What?"
"Let me finish! We all know Malfoy's a prat, and he always has been, but people can change. He obviously likes you so I think you are just the person to do so."
"Hold your horses! If we dated, you'd be alright with that? You know, since he's been especially cruel to you and your family."
She smiled, "Don't worry. I'm okay with this. I'm trying to be nicer to my enemies, anyway. I'll explain everything to Ron, Harry, and Hermione. Once they're fine with this, the rest of the house should open up to the whole idea."
"Thanks, Gin. I'll talk to him before potions and get it straight that he has to be nice."
That was odd. Wish me luck.
10:30 - Potions with Slytherin - After Charms, I saw Malfoy walking across the lawn to Hrbology. I ran up behind him and tackled to him to ground. Pinning the poor boy down with both my arms and my legs, I began, "Listen up, Ma- Draco! I will go out with you only if you comply with a few requests," he tried to get into a more comfortable position, but I wouldn't let him, "You will stop being jealous of Harry - let me continue! You will call all of my friends by their firsts names as a sign of respect! You will be more civil towards muggles, and that includes not using silly insults like 'mudblood'. Lastly, don't even think about trying to touch me inappropriately, especially without my permission."
I got off of him, grabbed my backpack, and pushed my way through the large croud that had gathered.
Malfoy - sorry, Draco - just gestured that it's time to go because I didn't hear Snape dismiss us. I really should pay more attention. Well, I'm off!
9:05 p.m. - in a chair in the corner of the common room - Lee's been acting weird lately. First he starts hanging around me and cracking jokes all the time, and then suddenly he gets all quiet and distant. I think that's as close at PMS as guys can get. Strange.
Because we're going to be watching these tournament things, and the teachers are loading us down with tons of work, I will not be able to write nearly as frequently as I would prefer. Sometimes life just sucks.
This evening at supper, Dumbledore told us that we will all be required to take a Muggle Studies course that will begin next semester. He said it will help us out in the future. Maybe he knows something we don't... Just kidding. Though that man is a total wacko (don't let my fellow Gryffindors know that), he seems to know everything.
September 6 -
7:35 p.m. - in front of common room fire - For the past couple of days, I keep getting the feeling that I'm being watched. It's making me nervous. I'm so paranoid, I'll think I hear something behind me, but when I turn around, no one's there. It's probably just my nerves acting up in reaction to the large amount of homework I have or something.
I've been hanging out with Draco some lately, and he's actually not that bad, once you get to know him. I think he might really be a nice guy under that rude exterior. My philosophy is that he thinks he has to keep up a though appearance, and that's why he's so mean to everybody. It is quite understandable because many teens do that.
Lee's still acting strange. He has gotten even quieter and quit hanging out with his close friends. He's still nice and all, but he's not himself anymore. No more pranks. No more jokes. He acts as if he is in some other world or something. He is beginning to worry me. Depressing.
