a/n: hope you like this chapter. I'm not sure about it.

disclaimer: not mine

10:30am, History of Magic. Tuesday the 13th of December.

Ellie, why did you write the date in my diary?

Dunno. I wanted to.

So bored. Oh my god! I am so bored.

We know.

You know what? Since James and I agreed to be friends, he hasn't asked me out once.

How long has it been since you agreed to be friends?

Two days and thirteen hours.

And how long has it been since he last asked you out?

Two days, thirteen hours and about fifty minutes.

You're keeping count?

Shut up! This is so boring; no one cares about the dumb ruins of Garaqua.

Well, Binns seems to!

That's cos' Binns was probably there when it happened.

True.

I'm so bored.

And I'm bored of you saying that you're bored! So I'm going to actually go and do my work!

Me too.

Shock and horror, they're actually going to do their work? They never do their work. And they still get good grades. That drives me nuts. It's the same with James and Sirius. And after all those detentions Dumbledore still thinks he's a good Head Boy? Sometimes I wonder what is wrong with that man.

I know this sounds kind of weird, but I miss having James ask me out all the time. It was fun fighting with him, and it was funny the way he'd pop out of nowhere and ask me out all of a sudden.

I can't believe that I miss these things. What's wrong with me?

Yeah, it must be something deadly. I think you need to see a doctor!

Oh my god, I can't believe it. Lily Evans just admitted that she likes James Potter.

I did not! I just said it's weird not having him asking me out all the time.

In other words; you luuuurrve him!

Be quiet. We're only friends. Go back to your work.

Nah, that was even more boring than you telling us that you're bored. So we decided to come back to this.

Just what I need.

What's that supposed to mean?

Nothing.

Whatever.

What is he doing? Who is he staring at?

Argh! Lily! Let go of my hair!

Oh sorry, your head was in the way; I couldn't see who he was looking at.

Who?

As if you don't know.

Who is that? Emma, tell me!

Who?

Her! The one over there, with the almost white hair!

Oh her. That's Yolanda Ryan. She's my cousin. She's also three-quarters veela, whereas I'm only half; she's not the nicest person in the world.

Why is he staring at her?

I don't know, it's not as if we're friends. She uses her advantage over men and I don't. Didn't you know she's my cousin?

No.

I think you mentioned it once, but that was ages ago.

She's acomplete bitch; don't know why Potter is staring at her.

I don't want him to stare at her; she's not good enough for him.

Since when do you care?

Since… since we became friends. And I care about the lives of my friends.

Oh Lils, don't get all soppy on us now.

I'm not. Can we just find out why he's staring at her?

Why do you want to know? Are you upset that he's no longer staring at you?

No, but can you help me find out why?

Oh, fine, but I still haven't done my prank with the love potion.

If you help me with this, I'll help you with that.

Ooh, deal!

Great! When are we going to do the prank?

I don't know; let me check my schedule.

You have a schedule?

No, I was being sarcastic.

Oh. Ok.

Let's do it next Tuesday.

Um, ok. But I don't want to get caught.

Fine, I'll say I did it all by myself. Detention isn't that bad. Potter and Black are always there to entertain me with their stupidity.

Is Sirius there?

Why? Does that mean you'll want to go?

Maybe.

Ok, can we find out about this Yolanda girl now?

Yep.

Fine.

Good. Emma, you ask Sirius, and get that giddy look off your face, we already know you like him. And Ellie you talk to Remus.

What are you going to do?

I'll talk to James.

Are you sure that's a good idea?

I'm not going to do anything. We're friends. I don't like him that way.

I wouldn't be surprised if something happened. James is a very smooth talker.

You would know; you went out with him for three months.

I know, but that was four years ago.

True.
