The Little Red Book: Chapter 3
Hey guys! Thanks for reviewing! Some people mentioned that they could really relate to being in-between in a group of friends. Well, I wanted to add that, cause I noticed it too, that in every group of friends, there is a person stuck on forward, one stuck on reverse, and one just in between. Of course, its not always like that, but its just something I noticed. I'm not really the in-between person in my group of friends, but still, there are people out there that are. Thanks again for reviewing! And a lot of you were wondering if the diary is the same one as the Tom Riddle one in COS…and no…its not. It is a completely different diary, and it's a girl, and its NOT evil. But thanks for asking. Enjoy…and don't forget to review after!
What Happened Last:
Hey, Diary!
My friends are sleeping right now so I decided to write to you. I'm going to tell you all my secrets, after all, if you have a spell over you, then it will be hard for Jam---people to break into. You said that people that have a problem end up with you, and I was wondering, what would my problem be? I'm a very happy girl, and I don't have a problem. But whatever. I'm glad to have a friend to tell secrets to. Gonna go grab something to eat, and then head off to Hogsmeade with Avril and Regina! Bye!
Lily
After writing that, Lily walked back to her closet and quickly changed into a black mini-skirt and a white sleeve-less shirt before heading down for breakfast.
Lily walked down to the Great Hall alone. She had 45 minutes to eat, then Avril and Regina would wake up. She sat down at the table, next to her friend Betty. Betty seemed surprised to see Lily alone, as Avril was usually awake before Lily was.
"So, Avril's still sleeping?"
"Yeah…sweet dreams about Remus."
Lily and Betty laughed. Avril was the morning person of the group, just as Regina was the late-night person. Of course, Lily was in between. The afternoon girl, as her friends liked to call her. Betty and Lily emerged into a deep conversation about their transfiguration homework from the day before. Lily heard whispers from the other side of the table…it was Peter Pettigrew, a short, chubby boy with watery eyes.
"Do you think Betty will go out with me?"…that was Peter.
James, Sirius and Remus smothered a chuckle and nodded their heads to soothe Peter's feelings, although in real life they knew that someone as gorgeous and lovely as Betty Bryerson would never fall for someone like Peter. Especially Peter. But he was their friend, and they felt it was up to them to comfort Peter, as no one else would. Lily glanced at Betty, who hadn't heard the Marauders. She really was gorgeous.
She had long black hair, and pretty brown eyes that played with many of the male hearts of Hogwarts, and a curvy figure many girls would die for. But it wasn't Betty's looks that had won Lily's friendship, it was her personality. Betty was loyal, kind and generous. All the more reason Peter fell for her.
Lily and Betty had been really close in first and second year, but as the girls got older, they made new friends. Lily had become friends with Regina as soon as they met, and Avril a while later. The 3 girls had instantly hit it off, while Betty's gang became the popular girls. Betty was the leader, although she was nice, as most queen bee's are not. Through their ups and downs, Lily and Betty had made sure to keep in contact, and still, they remained friends.
Lily buttered her blueberry muffin, and ate a banana. She gobbled up two pancakes and a glass of orange juice before running back up to her dorm to see if her friends had waken up yet.
They had.
You could hear screaming 5 feet away from the door. Lily did. She cautiously opened the door, and there was Regina whacking Avril with a pillow and Avril trying to escape. When Lily entered, the 2 grinned at each other, and with one nod to confirm that they were both thinking the same thing, they both hurled their pillows at Lily. Lily ducked Regina's but Avril's got her in the face. The 2 girls whooped in joy, and ran around Lily. (A/N: lol I felt this urge to add that in. Now I feel better and shall continue with the fic.)
Avril dressed in shorts and a t-shirt, while Regina went for black Capri's and a black baby tee. Lily felt overdone next to her friends, but for some strange reason, Lily didn't change.
When they were in Hogsmeade, she was surprised when James walked over to her.
"The nerve!", she sputtered…
She froze as he stuck his hands in her hair.
She gasped.
He simply plucked a white feather from her hair, and stuck it in his pocket before strolling away, whistling merrily.
Review...please? Anyway I hope you liked the chapter, let me know what you think! I don't feel like continuing any of my fics anymore...is anybody even reading them? Please review.
