Bathroom
Why must I get up this early? Wait…its coming back to me…oh yeah…school. I must have forgotten about it. Hmm…
Anyways, everything is really boring. Dumbledore still hasn't come back, I'm STILL serving detention with Hermione for pranking Libby. Which insanely sucks, but I'll live.
Remus wants to get a tattoo. So he writes home, and yesterday he got a howler from—Uncle Bill of all people! It was weird, but he said our parents were vacationing in Hawaii to "take a break". I was like…and they didn't TELL US? WHAT IF ONE OF US DIED? Then Hermione said Bill was staying at our house for that very reason. I have such concerned parents.

Later
Jay has been skipping more classes. She didn't even bother going today. I walked in, and there she was, sitting on my bed, listening to music, alphabetizing my text books by publication date. I'm thinking, why?
Jay said that the reason she is skipping is that she is bored. She doesn't see the point in going to class if all she is going to do is sleep through class. She'd rather sleep in her own bed. But still! What are her "parents" going to say?
Her response: They don't care. Their parents wanted them to know where they came from and that's about it. Their parents personally know the vampire who bit them when they were young, but they refuse to give names. As awesome as being a half vampire is, it is stressful. I can tell that. Both Bray and Jay are extremely stressed, something about the sixteenth anniversary of being a half-vamp. Something happens. I dunno, Bray has been giving windows weird looks.

This is Sirius. I've kidnapped my sister's diary. I feel evil for doing this. Remus wants a tattoo? Wow, I never knew that.
The purpose of why I am writing this: Jay has clobbered Lily because Lily suggested Jay elope. So Lily is in the Hospital Wing, completely knocked out, and I felt that since all important events should be recorded in this stupid book, (honestly, this is what Lily said in her sleep. Minus the stupid book bit.) That I should have the ability to write what happened. So this is what commenced:
EARIER THIS MORNING
JAY: Lily, I need to speak to you.
LILY: Why not.
BRAY: DON'T GO LILY! SHE'LL KILL YOU!
JAY: Don't listen to her. She's more likely to commit murder than me any day.
LILY: You have a point…
And then they left the Great Hall. The next thing we knew, Jay was screaming, and Lily was screaming back, Bray, Sean, and Drew went flying out of the hall. Bray was started screaming as well. James, Dan, Remus and I continued munching on bacon sandwiches.
Snape ran out of the hall, and began stunning people, we think. Jay was locked in an unannounced room, Lily was taken to the Hospital Wing, and everyone else were given detention. The last anyone heard of Jay, she was screaming the following:
"I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE! I'M TIRED OF IT! PLEASE, SOMEONE, MAKE IT ALL END!"
I hope that's up to Lily's standards. I don't know how she writes.
Later quidditch lovers,
Sirius

The Hospital Wing
My best friend has been taken to St. Mungo's for evaluation. Ever since Christmas, something has been off, and no one knows what. Not even Bray. Speaking of Bray…
Among my numerous…okay, five get-better cards, was a black card. I opened it, and wished I hadn't. Bray figured out how to recreate the time when I ambushed the Quidditch team with crappy muggle pop music in the card. Brittney Spears was screeching as I read the card. I think she is getting bored, or trying to get her mind of what is happening to Jay. Even Bray wouldn't submit herself to the torture of that card.
True to his word, Uncle Bill showed up as soon as he found out something happened to me. Of course, his wife showed up, gave me some weird medication, and made Bill come home, and let my parents handle it.
I'm exhausted. They have drugged me beyond belief.

Hospital Wing
Jay came and visited me this morning. She is suffering from stress. The Giant Penguin Incident did something to her mind, apparently. Triggered something in her mind, from a past life perhaps. So she came in to say sorry, and talk about how Bray and she had sorted out the wedding dress fiasco. The solution: Bray design something black. It's weird and unconventional, but the bridesmaid dresses are red. I'm like…dress? And start running in the opposite direction. But I'll tell Jay that later.
Then Jay left, and Bray came running in, waving her beloved sketch book, and started yelling at me. Apparently she has come up with the best dress for me. Then I told her my issue.
Me: Bray I don't wear dresses.
Bray: Of course you do.
Me: Honestly, I don't.
Bray: Sure you do.
Me: No.
Bray: You wore one for Christmas.
Me: That's a once in-a-lifetime event. It will never happen again.
Bray: Even on your wedding?
Me: It'll be combat boots and jeans.
Bray: Li-ily!
Me: (Exasperated) what Bray?
Bray: Please?
Me: Why?
Bray: I've designed a killer dress.
Me: Seriously?
Bray: Dead serious.
Me: Show it to me.
And she did. The dress is burgundy with a corset top-looking thing, and the skirt part flows out and is sort of poofy, but not in a corny way. It kinda…flows, if you know what I mean. Then strands of bell lilies hang off a belt and flowed down the dress. There are, of course, black and white accents, as Jay's wedding dress is white with black accents and a hint of burgundy in the trim. It almost makes me want to wear it.
Me: I…I'll wear it.
Bray: Really?
Me: Yeah. Just don't push it.
Then Bray and I started talking about Drew, and some pranks those two have worked up. It was like old times, when Libby didn't ruin relationships, best friends were suffering from stress disorders, and family secrets weren't revealed. It was really nice.
But, of course, life is nothing but. Libby ruins relationships, Jay is suffering from a stress disorder, Bray has become increasingly worried for some reason, I know about the original Potters, and in a few months, I'll be gone from Hogwarts and away, out in the real world. It's really scary.

February 7th, 8:00 AM
Great Hall
I HAVE FINALLY BEEN ALOWED TO BE WITH THE MASSES!!!
Okay, I'm done. I was released today, which is great. Everyone is eating breakfast, and now McGonagall is standing up.
"Students! I have important news." She is saying.
"Did someone die?"
"Did Voldemort come back?" Some sixth years are asking.
"No idiot! My dad killed him twenty years ago! Read your history book!" That was Remus. Such a good Head Boy.
"Silence! Potter—"
"Yes?" Remus, James, Sirius, and I say at the same time.
"Wha—oh, never mind. This year we are doing something for Valentines Day. Some of our staff—mostly Professor McHenry—have decided that this year should be used to pay tribute to the muggle background of many of our students. This year, students will give flowers, candy, cards, and general tokens of appreciation to their loved ones and friends. And, much to my dismay, classes on that Friday will be canceled. You may now eat your food." And she sat down.
Great. So now, to add insult to injury, we are supposed to give "tokens of our affections" to our loved ones. But what the hell do I get my brothers? Hell, I'll just give them a card.

Later, 10:00 AM
Muggle Studies
Today we are learning about the Music Revolution in England, how it affected both muggles and wizards of the twentieth century. So I am filing my nails, trying to figure out how many minutes there are left in the day. Yes, I am that bored.
And now she's moved on to Valentines Day. And our homework is as follows:
Write a 500 essay on the commercialization of St. Valentines Day in the muggle world. Due on the 10th.
Great, homework.
Lily
February 9th, 10:55 PM
Common Room
Here I am, doing that stupid essay.
The muggle world has branded this day of February as National Love Day in most—
No…that's crap.
St. Valentines Day: Holiday or Day of Pain?
Uh…no. She's kill me. Oh well, I have until after lunch to come up with something, I'll keep working on it.
Lily
February 10th, 5:02 PM
The Great Hall, listening to Sum 41
I think I'm flunking Muggle Studies. McHenry took one look at the title of my essay, (How Muggles Slaughter Single People) and gave it the evil eye. So I don't know if that means she likes it. I hope she does, because I need to pass that class.
Dinner is here. I'm going to eat, and then write more.
Lily
Later, I can't see a clock
Detention
I HATE LIBBY!!!!
She came up to me, said, "I can't hide my pimples because of you and bitch slapped me."
"I was like, you deserved it, BITCH!" And slapped her back. Then someone screamed fight, she punched me, I punched her, and then, it was a full-fledged fight. Then, Sprout came up, split us up, and Libby screamed,
"YOU BROKE MY NOSE BITCH!"
And I screamed, "YOU NEEDED IT TO BE BROKEN! IT LOOKS BETTER NOW!" Then we got yelled at for using profanity in a common area.
Also, because of my detention record for this year, I'm up for possible expulsion. Mum and Dad are coming back early, and I can just imagine what is going to happen. I know they won't expel me, I know too much magic for them to do that, and, not that I want to flaunt it, but I'm Harry Potter's only daughter.
Detention-riddled,
Lily
Thats the ending. Yes, Lily is up for explulsion. Yes, chapter 31 is the big plot-twisting chapter. Yes, it will be a long time before that chapter comes. And yes, this will be finished before July 16th. If not, this author will abandon this fic.
