I'm back! Yes, a longer wait than I'd planned, but I'm working out a few details of this story while trying to write the foundation of an original piece I'm working on. Also, Dobby's Black Sock might join in writing this story so we'll have to work around both our schedules. Anyways, let's stop talking about this boring stuff. To the story!

Chapter Two:

Destroy

Dear Diary,

I should be happy. I really should, but I'm not. I think I'm even more depressed, which is saying something. Let me back up.

I finally became friends with Lily. She really liked the idea of being a witch, and things were going great. Well, there was the part where I hit her sister with a tree branch, but that was a minor setback. It didn't mean anything, and I'm sure Lily's forgotten by now anyway.

We couldn't find an empty compartment on the train, which was annoying, since I was hoping to be alone with Lily one more time before we got to Hogwarts. Anyway, we sat in one where these four obnoxious pigs were sitting, one of them was a stupid Gryffindork. I know, it's the best joke ever, diary. I told him a thing or two. Then we left.

But that wasn't the worst part, diary. When we finally got to Hogwarts, Lily was sorted into Gryffindor! With all four of those idiots! I knew then that I would never be able to talk to her the same way. I mean, it was bad enough I was going to Hogwarts being friends with a Mudblood, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to see her much at all now she's a Gryffindor Mudblood!

I've seriously considered suicide, diary, but I haven't had the time. This older boy with long hair named Lucius Malfoy is sticking to me like glue. He talked to me all night the first night here. I had to wear the same robes on the first day, without shower, and I think a girl fainted. But it might have been because that stupid Black kid was filling the room with his idiocy at the moment. I can't believe he's a Gryffindor; apparently, according to Lucius and his friends, Black's whole family has been in Slytherin. I met two of his cousins, and they're nothing like him. They have a sister in Ravenclaw, but that's the next best house so I guess she's ok. (Dobby's Polka-Dotted sock does not know what house Andromeda was in, nor does she pretend to. All rights to Andromeda Black/Tonks belong to JK Rowling. And maybe Ted Tonks)

The only good thing about Lucius is that he gives me status, and he even uses my nickname. Bellatrix thinks Severus is a nice pureblood name so she won't call me Sev. She told Lucius he was too soft, but he just told her to mind her own business and that 'Me and Sevvie are going to be bestest friends!'

I'm not sure if I should fear for my personal safety, diary.

Hiding from Lucius or as he wants to be called 'Lucie',

Dear Diary,

Lily talked to me today in Herbology. She says she's having a great time and that she's made loads of friends, but that Potter is annoying and Black can be too. I'm glad. Apparently, one of the others, Remus Lupin isn't that bad, but I don't care what she says. Lupin is friends with Potter; therefore Lupin is the enemy, ok diary?

The Headmaster here is ridiculous. After the FFFF (Fail Fungus Filled Four (my nickname for them)) put bugs in my morning porridge, he called it a harmless joke and merely deducted fivepoints. Five points, diary! I could have choked! I think he picks favorites.

Lily says they'll have to stop soon since the Deputy Headmistress, Professor McGonagall, is less amused and is their head of house. Even if it means receiving aid from a Gryffindor, I hope she puts her foot down soon. Lucius made me a card to try and make me feel better. It was pink with lace and frills. Needless to say, diary, I hid it before my dorm mates saw it.

Wishing Lily would make me a card,

Sev

Dear Diary,

I know I haven't written for awhile, maybe even a month, but between classes, homework, avoiding Lucius, staying out of the FFFF's way, following Lily, and all I haven't had much time to write. Plus, once Bellatrix said that writing down your feelings was stuff Muggles did and that it was dumb. So I can't bring you within sight of her, just so you're safe. What if she read you?

Wait, what am I saying? What if my dorm mates read you? Come to think of it, diary, I am pretty careless when it comes to Dairy Security. Oh Merlin, what if the FFFF READ YOU??? They'd make sure the whole school knew! And then…Lily would know…and she'd never talk to me again.

I'm sorry diary, but you have fulfilled your purpose. You are a Muggle object, and I am a wizard. It would never work out between us. It was never meant to be. I'll have to sneak outside, tonight diary, and destroy you beyond recognition. Goodbye.

Planning ways to sneak out of the school,

Sev

What's this?? Snape's going to destroy his precious diary? Find out next time!
