Diary of a Red Head

26th of August

My Room

8:00 AM

Must try to remember to write 'Ginny's Room' instead of 'My Room'.

8:01 AM

World domination and all that, you know.

Ginny's Room

8:10 AM

See the power it radiates?

Ginny's Room.

8:23 AM

This is the end of my life as I know it.

8:26 AM

I am utterly serious.

8:27 AM

There is a whole box of Nosebleed Nougat's under my bed.

8:28 AM

Empty.

8:29 AM

With wrappers and stuff in it.

8:30 AM

Which explains the blood.

8:32 AM

Fred and George are trying to kill me, I just know it.

8:35 AM

They probably found out that I removed the glowy 'Fred' label from the shower.

8:36 AM

Or they found out I accidentally-on-purpose-found the Play Wizard they had stuffed under their bed and sold it to Dean.

Attic

8:50 AM

Am hiding in attic. Is v. nifty hiding place. Does not have idiotic brothers and Skiving Snackboxes.

8:52 AM

Oh! Boxes!

9:30 AM

Never try to take out one box if there are eighteen other ones on it.

It's very bad for you.

9:31 AM

Because you get squished by said boxes.

9:32 AM

And said boxes make you not breathe for ten minutes.

9:34 AM

Stupid boxes.

9:45 AM

Don't think box is v. evil anymore.

Box is actually quite likable.

9:46 AM

Found v. v. v. nice picture in box.

9:47 AM

Love, love, love boxes.

10:00 AM

I went down for breakfast, and the only seat left was the one next to Harry.

10:01 AM

Am still convinced that Merlin hates me.

10:04 AM

Sat down next to Harry, who just nodded at me and continued eating his toast.

10:05 AM

Hate Harry.

10:06 AM

Mum made Easter eggs for breakfast.

'Mum, its August,' I said, subtly.

'I know, dear, pass the butter,' said mum cheerily.

10:07 AM

Mum's gone mad.

10:08 AM

'Who's this?' I asked her, handing her the wrinkled photo I had managed to smooth out a bit (earning an indignant 'Well!' from the photographic-Dad while doing so).

Mum took the picture in her hands and frowned, studying it.

'What have you got there, Molly?' said Dad, yawning and taking a seat next to Mum, kissing her on the cheek.

'It's a picture, dear,' said Mum serenely, smoothing out the wrinkles a bit more.

'Molly,' sighed the picture dreamily.

Dad chocked on his Easter egg and everyone turned their heads towards Mum, shocked looks on their faces.

10:10 AM

Well, it is slightly disturbing if you think about it. It looked like Mum was doing something...

10:11 AM

Let's not talk about that, shall we?

10:12 AM

After Mum had managed to convince everyone of the fact that she was doing nothing but smoothing out the picture ('For heaven's sake, what do you think I was doing, Fred!') and Dad had managed to calm down enough to lean over Mum's shoulder, he let out a startled 'Blimey!'

He took the picture out of Mum's hands and smoothed it out a bit more ('Don't you have something better to do?' snapped the photograph-Dad, glowering at him). 'I haven't seen this picture in over fifteen years, where'd you get it?'

10:13 AM

I fancy someone who's over fifteen years old. Sure, he looks young in the picture but what if he is now fifty or something? Like ... Dad?

10:14 AM

Ew.

10:15 AM

'Ginny found it in the – where did you find it, dear?' Mum asked, absent-mindedly putting an enormous purple egg on Harry's plate.

'Attic. Who's that boy?' I added curiously, trying to hide the blush that was creeping up my cheeks by focusing on my plate.

Mum looked thoughtful, but couldn't say anything, because Dad looked at me with a small smile and said 'Why, you know him, Ginny.'

10:16 AM

I really shouldn't have stayed downstairs, then.

I should've bolted right up the stairs, locked myself in my room and never come out again.

10:17 AM

However, Merlin hates me.

10:20 AM

Because,apparently, I'm in love with an old picture of v. hot Professor Remus Lupin.

And Mum announced it to the table.

10:21 AM

Well, sort of announced it, but still. 'Ginny fancies him, don't you, dear?' isn't exactly encouraging, you know.

10:22 AM

Fred and George found it extremely funny.

10:23 AM

I kicked both of them under the table, and made it look like Ron did it.

HAH.

10:24 AM

Ron, on the other hand, paled.

'Can I talk to you, Ginny?' he forced out, between clenched teeth.

10:25 AM

Thinking it was best not to protest against this – especially since the spoon Ron was eating his Easter egg with was shaking so badly it almost poked George in the eye – I followed Ron meekly out in the hall.

'What?' I asked, closing the door behind me. I hadn't turned around yet, or Ron was on me.

10:26 AM

Not like that.

That's disgusting.

You've got a really sick mind, you know that?

10:30 AM

'EXACTLY WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?' he shouted at me, as I cowered.

'Er ... eating?' I replied, but Ron didn't seem to hear me.

'YOU DON'T GO AROUND SNOGGING HARRY AND THEN STRINGING HIM ALONG WHILE YOU GO HAVE A TORRID LOVE AFFAIR WITH AN EX-PROFESSOR!'

10:31 AM

Announce it to the world, why don't you?

10:32 AM

CRASH!

I glowered at him. 'Ron,' I hissed. 'I'm not having a torrid love affair with Professor Lupin.'

'Oh,' said Ron, deflating.

At that point, the door flew open, and a very mad Harry stepped out.

'Ron?' he said, his voice dangerously low.

Ron turned on Harry, his ears red and his gaze frightened. 'Yes?' he squeaked, in a high-pitched voice.

'Run,' said Harry, while a loud 'WHAT DO YOU MEAN, IT MEANS THEY KISSED?' from Dad, who had managed to fall off his chair.

10:33 AM

Oh, dear.
