Choices

Choice fourteen: Lily

Dear Diary,

I can't believe it, it's a nightmare… I've got a crush! I hate it when this happens, I always end up getting distracted. I don't want to have a crush on anybody. But every time I see him I can't help but smile, and I keep imagining how it would feel to have him hold me and then kiss him and… ah, this is too much, I'm going to take a bath.

Dear Diary,

I still can't get him out of my head it's been two weeks and my feelings are really starting to take over now. But nothing can ever happen between us, we're too different. But then again, Scarlet always said opposites attract. It's strange really how come I had to fall for him; although it could be worse… it could be Potter. He's a complete prat. No, at least my crush is decent. Well I've got homework to do, better go.

Dear Diary,

I'm so angry I can't believe it; my life is a mess. That prat Potter has only gone and decided that he has a crush on me. Oh and no he can't be subtle like me and keep it to himself because it completely goes against everything, he's decided he has to be up front and direct with me and ask me out. I told him to go away that I'd never go out with him and he just smiled and said in time. What the hell is that suppose to mean? I'm too angry to carry on.

Dear Diary,

Okay so it's been nearly a week since my last entry but I've been busy. No really I have. So the school has gone mad, I mean completely mad. It's nearly Valentines Day and the girls seem to all be trying to get dates. How pathetic is that? I wonder if he'll ask me. Oh no... of course not, he won't want me. At least Potter is leaving me alone, mind I suppose Mindy wouldn't be happy if he tried anything on with me since they're together. Prefect meeting better go.

Dear Diary,

You know I think this school is great but how come suddenly all the girls look gorgeous and I feel like the ugly duckling? I was so surprised; all the girls in the meeting had on make-up and these tight low-cut tops and short skirts. God even the guys look good at the moment, and yes that includes Potter, but that doesn't mean anything. I think I'm going to call it an early night.

Dear Diary,

It's Valentines Day and the school is hectic even more so than normal. Potter and Black are so childish… they turned up to breakfast wearing pink shirts instead of the white school ones. Mind, they both looked cute…. pity they don't have personalities. Remus though he's a sweetie, he looked really nervous as all the girls were swarming around them, I don't know why though he's just as good looking as Black and Potter, and with his great personality he's much better. Oh, McGonagall just walked in; lesson time.

Dear Diary.

I don't believe it… he gave me a rose! Severus Snape gave me a rose, and he asked me out. Of course I said yes, he's an amazing person. I know he's a Slytherin and me, I'm a Gryffindor… but that doesn't matter. And okay he isn't the best looking bloke around but he sees me for me and I think he's gorgeous. It's his eyes. They're the window to his soul, and… oh I'm so happy! It's a pity we can't tell anybody. I'm going to send Sapphie a letter and tell her though; she'll be happy for me.

Dear Diary,

Sapphie thinks I've lost it, but I don't care. She says that I've got to come visit her over the summer so she can check me out make sure I'm not ill or under some sort of potion that Sevie has given me. I'll have to go and explain things to her. Mind I don't care if she isn't happy with it because at the end of it all it's my choice, and I'm happy with it.

Okay so here's the next chapter for you, leading us down that path of Lily and Snape although it isn't permanent it is important in this story to explain later choices that will play a big part.
