Damn. Blonde obviously isn't working for me. I know because Filch told me so. I demanded a refund, quite politely too. Stupid git refused to give me one so I 'slipped' a vial of Draught of Living Death into his drink. Ha! He should run out of business soon. It was a concentrated mixture.
I overheard Minerva talking to Flitwick about Dumbledore allowing Potter to have a Nimbus Two Thousand so he could play in the Gryffindor Quidditch. Apparently he's a fantastic flier like James. I still remember the carefree way James' hair would fly against the wind. I tried to create the same effect with my own hair once during a Quidditch tryout but I had to stop because grease kept flicking into people's eyes. In fact, they had to ban me from playing on the team. Shame though, I was a fantastic player, at least I thought so…
I also overheard Draco and Potter talking about some Midnight Duel. I think I'll secretly go and watch. Not to spy of course, just to…er…monitor them in case anyone gets hurt (hardly unlikely but it's a good alibi). I wouldn't want either of their hairs to get dirty.
Later
Drats, it turned out Draco had tricked Potter and set Filch on him. That meant I had sat, huddled, in a miniature hidey-hole for nothing. It cramped my style and my legs. So peeved. On the bright side, I met Minerva on the way back to the staffroom dorms. She was coming back from the Gryffindor dorms where a second year had rolled over her wand, which somehow managed to set her quilt alight. I used the time with Minerva to apologise for the Christmas incident. After that, we had a perfectly normal conversation. That is, until I asked her about the lotion she used. She said that she didn't use lotion and that her face was naturally in that condition. Poppycock. I refused to believe it. Bet she didn't want to tell me because she didn't want anybody to know her secret. I'll find out sooner or later. I told her so and she glared at me and walked off in a huff. I don't get it. Why is it so strange for men to use lotion? We have to keep our skin unblemished and wrinkle-free too! Heaven forbid I should find a large pimple on my nose.
Still, I'm depressed that I'm still on bad (possibly worse) terms with her. Perhaps a bag of Honeyduke's Mocha Mix Marshmallows will change her attitude. I'll put the marshmallows in a box (the bag looks too ugly), wrap it up all nice and pretty and give it to her first thing in the morning. In the meantime, more beauty sleep!
A/N: Hi again! Please post reviews, I want to know if I'm heading in the right direction or towards a writer's cliff. Hope you're enjoying it so far!!!
PS. Yes, I know the Nimbus Two Thousand is meant to appear after the Midnight Duel but bear with me okay?
