Disclaimer: Once again, I do not own anything that deals with Harry Potter.
A/N: Please read and review. Please people. I would really like it if I got some good reviews.
"July 31st,
"Today is the day! Harry Potter, the infamous Boy Who Lived, turns eleven. Hagrid has already gone to get him from those horrible muggles, Vernon and Petunia. They have no right to call themselves human beings, let alone parents. And Dudley... Oh, that boy deserves a few good smacks.
"Anyway, I can hardly wait to see Harry again. His future depends on how well he takes in his first year. Once he gets here, I am sure Dumbledore will make him feel at home. Dumbledore. Every time I say it, I blush like a bloody schoolgirl. It could be because we did date in school..."
"WHAT!" cried Ginny, her jaw open, eyes wide. Seamus covered his mouth and Draco rushed to Hermione's side.
"Let me see that," he exclaimed, grabbing the diary out of Hermione's hands. Harry stood at his side as they re-read the last two lines.
"Ha, I told you!" cried Harry, pointing to the last line Hermione read. "Pay up, ya chump!"
"D'oh!" sighed Draco, digging into his pocket. He pulled out two galleons and handed them to Harry, who proceeded to kiss them and place them into his pocket.
"You made a bet that McGonagal and Dumbledore went out when they were in school?" asked Hermione disapprovingly.
"Actually, we bet that they had dated at one time or another. We never actually said when," said Harry.
"I can't believe it!" grumbled Draco. "Bloody hell!"
"Continue, Hermione!" said Ginny excitedly.
"I suppose it was kind of obvious," said Neville. "I mean, think back to when we were in school! Whenever Dumbledore appeared, McGonagal was right there beside him. That was especially true in our second year. A student was petrified, and suddenly, they were right there together! As in side by side together."
"That doesn't prove anything, Neville!" said Hermione. "She is headmistress of Hogwarts. Or, was..." she added, looking at the rubble.
"Yeah," said Seamus excitedly. "She probably became the headmistress because they were dating!"
"You two are reading way into this," Hermione said to Neville and Seamus. "I'll bet you anything they weren't even dating during our years at Hogwarts."
"Well," smiled Ginny. "There's only one way to find out." The group looked at the diary, which Draco had set on a nearby rock. Hermione gulped and reached for it. But right before her hand touched it, a small blue- colored animal jumped on top of the diary and hissed at Hermione, causing her to jump back and scream.
"It's just a Cornish pixie, 'Mione," laughed Harry. Hermione looked at the small pixie, a large grimace on its face.
"Oh, I know that," sighed Hermione, her hand on her chest. "It just... scared me, that's all."
"Sure, 'Mione," smiled Harry. "Whatever you say."
"It must've escaped from the old DADA classroom," said Neville.
"Possibly," shrugged Seamus. "You know ever since Snape took that job, Cornish pixies have been escaping and playing tricks on him and the other teachers."
"No thanks to Peeves," said Hermione.
"Watch it!" cried Ron. But before anyone could react, the blue creatures took off, diary in both hands.
"Get him!" cried Hermione. Everyone began to chase it furiously before Draco pulled out his wand and attempted to hex the pixie.
"Pesky pixie pesti-," but he was cut off when he lost his footing and got his ankle caught between two rocks. He let out a scream of pain.
"Draco!" cried Ginny, turning back.
"Go, go," growled Draco, waving his hand and pointing in the opposite direction. "Get the bloody pixie."
"Right!" called Ginny. She turned and once again began chasing the excited pixie. But there was no need to run any further because Hermione pulled out her wand and cried, "Imobulous!" That surely did it. The impish pixie froze in mid-air, diary still clutched in his hands.
"Accio diary!" called Harry. The diary then flew out of the pixies hands and right to Harry.
"Phew," sighed Ron. "That was a close one."
"Hello!" cried Draco. "I am still in great pain over here!" Everyone looked at him.
"Oh, sorry," said Hermione. "C'mon, you guys. Let's get Draco to the hospital."
"The... hospital?" squeaked Draco.
