Hello James Potter's diary. This is Lily Evans. This diary was tossed into my hands by a very out of breath Sirius Black and I was told in between gasps that I should read it and make my own contribution.

Well here it is.

Did you honestly think that I was going to spill my darkest deepest secrets in James Potter's diary? Don't be daft. Honestly.

Well then, let me clear up a couple of things. First of all I not did break up with that "soddin' Ravenclaw" as you so eloquently put it. And there was no need to beat him up because a letter from home came saying that my dog died. I got Paws when I was four and he has been my best friend for years.

So Potter, leave my boyfriend alone. Although if he still wants to date me after what you did to him, I'll be very surprised.

Date:16 January

Place:Girls' Dorm

Time:21:13 pm

Hello again. I still have Potter's diary. Why? I don't know. Or maybe I do.

Potter completely avoided me today. He didn't even glower at Dan or any of the Slytherins. Black has been conspicuously absent as well. Remus on the other hand was as bright as a daisy today. Mary is in love. I don't know with whom yet. She'll probably tell me soon though.

We're doing human transfiguration and everything is non-verbal. It's harder than I thought. I suppose it's because the intent was always in the words and not in the results. Just have to remember that.

Date:17 January

Place:Girls' Dorm

Time:20:33 pm

This is getting scary. I rushed through dinner to get upstairs just to write two paragraphs in some else's diary. I have my own, why don't I write in that?

Mary's out of her lovesick daze. Apparently the object of her affection plays for the other team. She is shattered. Perhaps I should bribe Black to… no wait I don't have to bribe him I can just ask. After he will relish the opportunity to sneak to Hogsmeade and buy a slab of Honeydukes' best. I heard him mention to Potter the other day that their fireworks supply is low. Maybe by tomorrow night Mary will be back to normal.

Dan and I were on patrol last night and he did break up with me. Oh well can't say I'm really surprised.

I HATE POTTER!!!!

YOU SEE!! I HATE YOU. IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT!!!

YOU #$?!!

Date:24 January

Place:Charms Class

Time:10:31 am

I know. Horrible and shocking isn't it? I'm completely ignoring Professor Flitwick. Me, Lily Evans, Head Girl. Oh well there's a first time for everything as they say, though who they actually are remains to be seen. Or heard or felt.

Mary's giving me funny looks, like she thinks I should be paying attention instead of writing in Potter's diary. Sigh.

I feel really bad abut what I wrote in the previous entry. It won't come out. And I only half meant it at the time, now not at all. I'm sorry.

I guess I should probably give Potter's diary back soon. I don't want to. This one's much more interesting than my own. Maybe Potter and I should take turns in writing, on weekly basis. A month is too long.

That is if he ever even looks at me again. I only see Potter at occasional Prefect meetings, and classes of course, but somehow he seems to avoid most of those as well. It's like he is invisible. Or maybe he's just really quick and knows a lot of secret passages.

Yay Charms is over!!! Now I'll have get notes from Mary on what we did. It's actually quite fun to skip a class… not that I wasn't there, I was there, just not there… if you know what I mean… I was…never mind.

Place:Girls' Dorm

Time:00:01 am

Finally. They are all asleep. The other girls have asking non stop questions since Charms. If I knew that me ignoring a class was going to cause such a stir, I would never have done it…

Okay maybe I would, I would just have been more subtle about it. I mean not even Professor Flitwick noticed. Some of the Slytherins might have, but really what are they going to do?

Anyway…

I was ranting wasn't I?

Sigh

Mary told me today that she never liked Dan (the sodding Ravenclaw). I asked her why and she said that he just gave her the creeps, but maybe there's more to it.
