To Whom It May Concern-
I said that I'd write more when something exciting happened. I don't know if you can qualify this as exciting, but it's definitely something.
I received a letter. I'll rewrite the letter here, just in case I lose the original. It read:
Dear Hermione-
I know this isn't the best way talk to you, but it's the easiest way. I guess I'm really not that good with words sometimes. Anyways, I just wanted to tell you how beautiful you looked today. I don't mean that you don't look beautiful any other day, because you do. I just thought that today, you looked really really beautiful. You don't know how much you make me smile sometimes. I couldn't take you for granted ever. I really like the way you look when you're concentrating really hard on something. I also like the way you look when you smile. You can light up a room with your smile, has anyone ever told you that? I hope they have, because you deserve to hear that every single day. I'd say this all to your face, but I just can't right now. Maybe someday I will. I've got to go. Expect another one of these later. I hope you're not creeped out by me.
Sincerly, ..?
And that was it. That was the note. It didn't say who it was from or anything! How am I supposed to take something like that? Is this some kind of a sick joke? It wouldn't be the first time someone's done this to me. I got a note like that a while back from one of the Slytherins who thought it was funny to lead me on like that.
But for some reason, I don't think this is a joke. It actually seemed sincere. I mean, nobody's ever called me beautiful. Oh my, I'm pathetic. Blushing over a note from a secret admirer..how childish! I really must knock some sense into myself. There's so many things wrong with this situation; I can't get my hopes up!
I mean, what if he has nothing in common with me? What if he's really just a boy who has seen me and thinks I'm attractive? Really, he doesn't even have the courage to talk to me in person. How hard can it be to come up to me and say "Hi, I think you're beautiful?" Honestly, what am I going to do? Spit in his face? Boys..who really understands them?
Besides that, nothing has really happened. Malfoy got a few detentions for letting some Sneedles out in the Great Hall. Seeing as Sneedles only eat mashed potatoes, I don't see what Malfoy was thinking when he let them loose. Aparently, he enjoys getting detentions for stupid ideas. Dumb prick.
I suppose I better leave this entry here. I'll be sure to update when something new happens. My admirer did promise to write me again soon.
Until then,
Hermione
