Thoughts From A Broken Heart

by IllusiveButterfly

Some of Lily's diary entries... How did she feel when Petunia called her a freak? How did she feel when James Potter picked on her and asked her out? How did she feel when Snape called her a mud-blood? How did she feel when she fell in love?

7. Chapter 7

27th September 1971

I absolutely hate Potter. Whenever I try to spend time with my friends he's there and he's always playing practical jokes on people. All the girls seem to fancy him and Black but I don't get it. I must be the only girl at Hogwarts who doesn't fancy one of them. I think he's trying to ignore me. When he's not ignoring me he's saying things purposefully to annoy me. He's such a jerk. I've spent a lot of time in the library over the last few weeks doing my homework.

We won our first match against Slytherin. Everyone is really happy. I don't really get it but apparently it's important. Several muggles in Lnodon have been attacked, a few are even dead. Potter's dad works for the ministry. I was quite impressed by what he said not that I'll ever tell Potter that. He seems to really care, Mr Potter I mean. James Potter however, seems completely unfazed by the attacks. It's as if he doesn't care. He just makes out with Kate. Maybe he doesn't care. He probably doesn't know any muggles.
