A Word from the Author: Hello everyone, this is jediclonecowgirl, with a new chapter of "Sally's Diary Year II". I know, it's been long, but the week wasn't really gentle with me, when it came to exams.
Dear Diary.
When it comes to love matters people can be a big mystery. Almost everyone in Gryffindor has proven that to me. They're always tiptoeing around the deal, without really speaking about it. Some people swoon massively about their crush, but make it clear, that they will never ever be noticed by them and some people won't speak a bloody word about it. Like Ginny for example! A few days ago my little brother came to me all worried about Ginny and said, that she seemed to be…off or anything like this.
Well…that gets me worried too, but maybe it only has something to do with Harry. With them being in the same house and Ginny madly in love with him, it would make sense wouldn't it? Okay…why am I trying to get awnsers from a bloody diary?
Well…outstanding news: After Harry returned from detention with Lockhart, I pity him totally, he has been hearing a strange voice there. A bodyless voice. Call me a muggle-born witch, but there is no such thing as bodyless voices…not even in our world. Hearing strange voices is no good sign…not even for wizards and witches. Maybe I should let go of my idea, that this year was going to be somewhat normal….
Otherwise, what is ever normal around here? The simple awnser: NOTHING! Wizards and muggles may have different definitions of normal, but they are not that different…and there are some things, that aren't good signs for either muggles, or wizards…and hearing strange voices is one of those.

Dear Diary.
Sammie and I just returned from Quidditch practise. Game against Slytherin soon. This was, where we met Lee, who was checking stuff on his magical megaphone, so everything would work out at the day of the game. Samantha talked to Lee in a really strange and gibberish way, but they had seemed to understand each other perfectly. So sweet…and I guess the others on the team thought so too. Even Oliver and he is not the touchy-feely one.
Fred and George say, that Oliver is unable to fall in love in any kind. Never had anything with anyone. No boyfriend, no girlfriend, no relationship in any way. Still…Oliver had watched the scene and he looked, like he found it cute…or anything like it. Why are the sixth years such a mystery? I like Pery and Oliver both, but why can't they stop acting, like you are supposed to solve some kind of riddle in them?
Oliver forces us to practise almost daily, so we barely have time for anything else, but practise and homework in our freetime, so it's probably a privelige for my twin to see Lee. We are studying, as if final exams were coming up soon and it's not even Halloween yet. Our teachers are mental and everyone at the second year boy's dorm agrees. So do Sammie, Lavender and Parvati and Hermione doesn't have to know about that. She would probably put a bloody STINGING HEX on me, if she read this. Luckily I charmed this thing password protected and it will probably take a curse breaker to break all those charms.
Well…if Ron ever wants to peek in here again, the guy would have to nick this book from the girls dorm somehow and send it to his brother Bill to Egypt…and he is like what…twenty…so he would probably not really let himself be involved, when it comes to poking into my private thoughts…hopefully. Okay now Ron wouldn't even be able to send it to his brother, without Bill hating me…and he does not even know me…properly. I think, that Jack mentioned Bill once or twice, when he was on leave…can't remember properly though…too long ago.
Percy promised to help me with spell-inventing and all that stuff…he told me, that it was really difficult, but I like it somehow…he even offered me to practise a bit together, so I gotta leave now.
Yours

Word in the Gryffindor girls dorm is, that George is jealous of his own brother. No…not a fight with Fred. No…not Ron trying to get revenge on him for something. It's Percy! Apperantly it's some girl matter. The only reason I write about this is this one: A few days ago, I caught the female Gryffindor prefect looking at me in a weird way. Apperantly she does listen to the school gossip, even THOUGH she is a prefect…nah kidding. Still…apparently George and Percy are in love with the same girl, at least according to the rumors…tough break.
Things, that supposingly already happened between them…too horrible to be true. I would bet money on the fact, that it's this bullying girl from Ravenclaw…Marietta Edgecombe. If that's really true, then I honestly thought I knew Percy and George better then that! What would they want with a girl like THAT? She bullies the other girls, never stays with the same boy for about a week or something and she is basically just a fat red-faced cow, who is exceedingly DUMB! It's a mystery to me how SHE winded up in Ravenclaw!
I get along with her best friend Cho Chang quite alright though…Oliver says, that she is a thorn in the side, but he only says so, because she is the seeker of the Ravenclaw Quidditch team. It will be a pleasure to encounter her on the field this year. Sally and Samantha Joker. The new star chasers of Gryffindor. They don't look like much, but you will be blown away, when you see them on the field. No keeper stands a chance, when they aim for the posts. Cho Chang…the most brilliant seeker, that Ravenclaw has ever seen. Her skills are only overdone by her beauty. Opposite to Marietta, Cho looks quite pretty. Marietta always uses so much Make-Up, that it makes her look, like she had dumped a bucket of paint over her head, along with three different sorts of perfume. When you encounter her in the hallways, you gotta be careful not to vomit. Cho's Make-Up always makes up her eyes…she doesn't use half as much as her friend. She only uses a bit more, when she goes out properly…and she barely does. She goes too much about her marks. I know why SHE winded up in Ravenclaw! Word is, that she doesn't even have a boyfriend yet…how can someone so nice befriend someone so…snotty?

Dear Diary.
I am feeling kinda guilty about the fact, that I haven't been spending much time with Ginny yet. Sam and I did spend time with Roland though, but when we did we always were alone. Watching the teams of Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw train, playing Exploding Snap and Wizards Chess in the Countryard, I probably wouldn't have lost to Roland, if Percy hadn't been trying to help me all through the round, point and laugh at the Slytherins and getting shoved into duels with them afterwards, we never pick out people like FLINT for that of course, since I do not want Roland to suffer the same fate, as me last year, talking about the bad habits of our roommates and all that.
Probably Ginny won't even let me come three meters in her reach. It's not like we had a fight, but…Ginny spends more time with her new diary, then with anyone else here. Didn't even know, that she had a diary. Never noticed her writing in it at Common Room or anything. I don't really know why though. She seemed to get along so great with Luna Lovegood and Roland on the train, so why isn't she trying to bond a bit? I also noticed, that Neville tried to talk to her a few days ago…
Percy, Fred and George don't know, what's wrong themselves. They say, that it's weird, because Ginny is always such a rough one. Chatty, smiles often, always up front, when it comes to stuff her brothers do…but now it's likely the other way around. Shy, mentally off, locks herself away…my goodness.
Maybe she's upset, because of something…maybe she is even mad at us for annihilating her. Gotta find out soon. Don't want to make Ginny feel unwanted after all. Maybe Ron was right though…that day back at Diagon Alley. We should let our younger siblings make friends of their own. They did though…so I don't know, what's up with Ginny and I am certainly not gonna draw Harry in this. He doesn't even seem to notice Ginny very much…she's always tiptoeing around him and can barely say a clear sentence, when they are in the same room.

Dear Diary.
New rumor is going out under us Gryffindors. I got it from Hermione, who has it from Parvati, who has it from Angelina, who has it from one of her friends: Apperantly Angelina's friend heared George say to Fred and Percy, that he would invite a certain girl to Hogsmeade village, if the circumstances weren't so particular. Has George fallen for a Slytherin or something? Gossip around here is going crazy…maybe I should keep outta this…or figure out how much of this stuff is actually true…
Today I confronted Samantha about this thing with Lee Jordan…it went over quite well I can say…well…if you don't count the fact, that she chucked a pillow at my head at some point…then she went all red and giggled wildly. I asked her, if Lee knew, but Sammie shook her head…then she asked me, if there was something she needed to know…about a certain ginger head…HA! There are only a handfull of gingers, that I know and those are the Weasleys…they're all only friends.
Does my sister think, that I have a thing for Percy? Well…my sister better should keep her mouth shut, since Percy is first of all just a friend and secondly he would never take me as his girlfriend. We are simply too different…of course there is this thing with "opposites attract" , but…oh man!
When it's about this lame old joke, that I fancy George again, I should probably tell my sister, that this joke is wearing out. It has been ever since that day at Diagon Alley, but I didn't want to speak it out on that day! Man…George is decent and funny and humorous and kind, but we can never be anything more, then just friends…
Can we?
Sally
Ending Word: Well…this is the fifth chapter…it's been long, but well…duties of life. I seek to write more often myself, but how can I know, if I'll ever be able to. I hope, that you'll leave some reviews behind. Now all I have left to say is bye, bye and mischief managed.
