A/n:
OKAY VERY VERY VERY IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ!
I would like to start of this chapter by formerly introducing someone to you guys. She is brilliant, smart, and has done a wonderful job of beta-reading my story.
Her name is Laura, her pen-name is iluvsining333 if you want to contact her. She is very very good. Laura is my new beta reader for this story and recently got a 75 on an extremely hard test.
WELL DONE LAURA! AND THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!
Now, quotes for this chapter D these are some stupid things that celebs have said.
"The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four Americans are suffering from some form of mental illness. Think of your three best friends. If they're okay, then it's you."
- Rita Mae Brown.
"If it weren't for electricity we'd all be watching television by candlelight."
- George Gobol.
"If your parents never had children, chances are you won't either."
- Dick Cavett.
Just some interesting funny little things to think about!
Now, on with the story!
YAY!
Common Room – Before Breakfast
YAY
YAY
YAY
YAY!
Why am I so happy? Because its my first tutoring session with Gabrielle today!
YAY
YAY
YA-WAIT!
Just to clear some things up: Gabrielle is my student; I am NOT getting tutored by her
Yes, just because I need a little, tiny, itsy-bitsy bit of help with the worst subject in the entire world and the bane of my existence (one of them), does NOT mean that I need help from a third year.
Now that that's cleared up, I bet that she is a lovely, cute little girl.
So what if she needs help?
It happens to the best of us.
At least now, I can change a parrot into a bear!
Thank you, James Potter.
Well, breakfast time has come – breakfast here is DELICIOUS!
So delicious that it is my new favourite meal of the day. It beats the low-fat, no-fat cereal and milk they served at French magic jail school.
Beauxbatons tried to starve their students into submission…
Not that the girls needed to go into submission as they were all perfectly willing to do whatever any professor told them to do…
Mindless bimbo's.
The point of this entry was to enforce my excitement about finally meeting and helping Gabrielle.
I'M
SO
EXCITED!
So excited I fell down those god-awful stairs this morning. I mean seriously, who in their right mind wants TWISTY stairs?
ISHK!
When I die, I'm going to find the inventor of twisty stairs and kill them all over again.
Now that that point is perfectly clear, I'm leaving!
Ciao!
Great Hall – Lunch Time
Oh
My
Sweet
Merlin!
I swear that Sirius is Italian
Yes, you heard me,
ITALIAN!
He is still talking about getting revenge on me for losing our bet
Hey, its not my fault that he isn't as smart as me – he shouldn't have taken me on in charms class.
Ha ha!
He's holding this massive grudge, even though it's Wednesday and he got to stop wearing his nerdy outfit last week.
He's talking about revenge on me.
Rolls eyes.
Okay, seriously!
It is NOT a smart idea to take me on in a prank war! Ask Charlie and Teddy.
I had lots of good times kicking their asses!
Every time someone mentions the word glasses, the entire group cracks up laughing. Let me tell you, we have been trying to insert that word wherever we can.
We even call the goblets that we use at meal times glasses now, just to annoy him and amuse ourselves.
The always sexy James Potter who wears glasses – AHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA! – is mentioned as every other thing we say.
WAIT
OH
MY
SWEET
MERLIN!
I just called Potter sexy. Ohnohnoohnoohnoohnoohnoohnoohnoohnoohnoohno
OH NO!
This is NOT good.
HE did it. That stupid nerd thinks he's so kick butt smart by writing in my diary. Well I'll tell you, Mr. I'm-The-Greatest-Sex-God-Nerd-Of-All-Time-Who-Might-Be-Gay, I wont stand for this.
ISHK!
Besides, I'm in too much of a good mood to care to much about his… petty… threats.
I told him so.
"Why are you in such a good mood?"
That was Rose.
Hey, the name might be delicate and pretty, but she can really give it to a person if they deserve it.
Sara, on the other hand, is just so full of attitude. She is one weeeeeeeeeeeell respected person, let me tell you that. You do NOT mess with the Sez.
"I get to tutor a gorgeous little third year."
I'm so excited.
YAY
YAY
YAY!
"Ooookay…. Who?"
"Gabrielle O'Pare"
WHY ARE THEY LAUGHING AT ME?
Yes, Little Lily is sooooo amusing. Everybody laugh at Lily.
At least they aren't laughing at my pain.
That's a first.
"Why are you laughing? I bet she's wonderful."
"She thinks so," Remus commented dryly.
I brushed that comment aside. I will NOT let Mr. Kill-joy over there dampen my spirits.
On a er… happier note: well its not really happier, its just… I dunno.
Confusing.
But then, isn't everything?
After I tutor Gabrielle, I'm going to visit Mother in the hospital.
Oh
Joy.
What do I expect?
Anger.
YAY!
NOT
Hey, I was being independent when I stormed out of that house.
NO, I was not being stubborn…
I prefer I-N-D-E-P-E-N-D-E-N-T
Say it with me now,
I-N-D-E-P-E-N-D-E-N-T
Well done.
Now, onto more important matters
Potions is up next
Oh
My
Sweet
Merlin!
Kill me now.
That slug and his encore of menacing minions can go and mingle with mean mountain-trolls and mess with the mighty marauders – which is a daily occurrence – and muddle with menacing… mounts.
I love horse riding, I have a beautiful black stallion. My sisters mount is a palomino –
ISHK
How typical of her.
At least her horse has enough common sense not to like her.
Smart horse, smarter than Vernon Dursley.
But that's not hard
Well I'm off to be eye-candy for some slimy Slytherins and their slimey slug.
Ciao
Common Room – 12:00 am
Oh
My
Sweet
Merlin!
This is going to be a long entry as I have so much to say. I've been to tutoring, I've been to see my mother and I'm too tired to complete my star chart.
Lets start off the nights events by saying:
BEING THE NEW GIRL REALLY SUCKS.
You see, I found out why my friends were laughing at me at lunch, and all I can say is:
Being positive just does NOT work for me.
Like this one time, I was actually – yes, I am embarrassed to admit this – excited to be going to a social event with the family.
The reason: Jake Sommerfield
The sexy young heir of the Sommerfield Real Estate fortune. He was sexy, suave and totally into me.
You see, it would have been perfect, except that I was positive and gravity disagreed with me and I stacked it, and flashed my undies at the same time. I found him later snogging some stupid blonde, so I hooked up with some other guy.
It's a harsh world.
Anyways, so I turned up to the library for her tutoring exactly at 5, our planned time of arrival.
No sight of her, so I picked a table near the entrance, one completely in sight of the door and pulled out my charms essay to do while I waited.
She couldn't be far off, right?
Right.
10 minutes later…
She couldn't be far off right?
Right.
20 minutes later…
She couldn't be that far away, right?
Right.
15 minutes later…
She's testing my patience…. Ohhh, I am going to give it to her
Gr.
How late does she want to be?
If she doesn't walk through that door in the next five minute I'm going to – he-he, redhead temper.
Oh look, there she is.
That brat was 45 minutes late, and I successfully completed two extra rolls of parchment for my charms essay. You see what happens when I'm not stopped?
Anyways, she finally turns up at quarter to six, completely not caring that she was late.
"Your late."
Hey, Potter's Captain Obvious disease is spreading.
NOTE to self, the next time you're at the hospital wing, ask for a Captain Obvious Vaccination. It's really getting to your head, and then people will roll their eyes at you, and you know that you're the best at this.
He… he… self confidence is good these days.
"So?"
EXCUSE ME?
SO?
And I wondered why she was failing charms.
I blinked.
She's skinny, blonde and has the beginnings of having a stunning body, but the sneer/smirk thing on her face made her ugly.
Why not introduce myself.
"My name is Lily."
"I know who you are. The only reason I'm here is because I wanted to meet you. Is it true that you transferred from Beauxbatons?"
I stared at her incredulously. Some Gryffindor she is.
Oh wait, she's proud.
Pride is good… then you get pride that goes to the extent of being self-centered.
That's her.
"Excuse me?"
"I mean, like, if it's totally not true, I'm outie."
She pulled out a compact and a lip-gloss.
Outie?
Outie?
OUTIE?
Who does this girl think she is?
"Eer, yeah, I came from there."
"Like, why? I mean, Beauxbaton's is like, totally the best school ever."
What a CBFOM!
Oh
My
Sweet
Merlin!
She needs a personality transplant to come back to earth.
Calling Captain Space-Man. We have a problem.
"Yes, you would do really well there."
She totally would. I mean, like, she can, like, put on, like, make-up with, like, the rest of them, like, totally.
ISHK!
How annoying.
"Do you really think so?"
ISHK!
Desperate?
Ooh, I have a plan
Cunning little devious me
I am awesome!
I love me.
But who doesn't?
"Sure" I said casually. She opened her mouth to say something else, but I cut in. "But, you have to be really good at charms."
Her little blue eyes widened. "Do You?"
"Oh, yes. They take it very seriously. That's why, you know, I'm a little ahead."
As opposed to you, who is a little airhead
Yes, mean, I know, but hey; you can see why.
"So, you need to, you know if you want to apply and get in, study and attend your tutoring lessons."
She's totally convinced.
"oh-ok. But they'll know I had to have a tutor."
"As long as you study hard, no one needs to know."
I looked at my watch.
6:22
No point in starting now. I told her so.
"Okay" she said. "Same time, same place next Wednesday?"
I agreed, and reminded her to study on her own and bring her books.
ISHK!
I am going to get revenge on my friends. I cannot believe that they didn't tell me.
I stormed back to the common room, thinking about the fact that my friends didn't have the decency to at least warn me. I mean, how could they not! She's such a…
CBFOM
I should introduce her to my mother. They would love each other.
I slammed the portrait open.
I have gotten good at that! Making an entrance was always my thing!
Everyone in the common room looked up. Those idiot ex-friends of mine were sitting in the corner, starting to look scared.
"I would hate to be her victim right now," Daniel said to Henry and Charles, his voice clearly heard in the silence that I created.
Okay, so really, a few people turned around and stared at me, but hey. I was LIVID!
Stupid ex-friends.
Anyway, I can still make a scene.
HMPH!
Told you, I was able to make a scene.
"At least she doesn't look as murderous as the time we buried parts of her new saddle," Charlie said jokingly to Henry.
EXCUSE ME, DO YOU NOT THINK THAT I AM MAD AT YOU?
Huh?
Huh?
HUH?
ISK!
I turned on them, more livid than before.
"You what?"
"Oh no," the twins and Daniel said, looking at each other, generally scared. "Not The Hiss."
They always said that when I talked lowly and somewhat calmly, that it was worse than screaming.
They're probably right.
But hey, the two of them just admitted that they were the ones responsible for dirtying my glorious new dressage saddle, that I actually had to save up for.
They turned and ran.
Cowards.
Oh well, back to those idiot ex-friends.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
I am proud – not the self-centered kind of pride – to announce that the caged animal within me unleashed itself. And all I can say is, those two deserve it.
Remus and Rose – who, now looking back on it, were sitting suspiciously close to one another… romance in the air? Hmmmm… – were tackled off their seats onto the ground by a tiger. A tiger lily.
MWAHAHAHAAA!
I crack myself up.
Crack…
Crack…
CRACK!
Ha ha, amusing word that one.
Said victims of said tiger -lily soon regretted not saying something, as said tiger -lily employed the help of one James Potter to help torture said victims.
If you couldn't understand that then…
HA HA!
I'll explain it in… ITALIAN!
Just kidding!
Basically, once Remus and Rosie were on the floor, I started to tickle them, but, Remus – being the big huge baboon-man-thing that he is, was fending me off.
GR!
So, I employed the help of one Mr. J.S. – short for sexy – Potter.
Mmmmmm!
"Help me!" I asked him.
He raised an eyebrow.
"Okay!"
YAY! I got my minion-man!
One, Mr. J.S.M.M.Potter!
James Sexy Minion Man Potter.
MWAHAHHAAAA!
I amuse me.
He went for Rose, while I turned all my attention to Baboon-man.
Next thing I know, I'm on the ground being attacked by:
Not one,
Not two
But THREE! Baboons.
Remus, Rosie and Potter are all going to DIE!
After they kill me that is.
WHY ARE THEY LAUGHING AT ME?
This isn't fair. They're laughing at my pain again. Lets all laugh at Lily because she's little.
Well har-de-har-har.
HMPH!
I do admit I laughed REALLY hard.
Stupid ex-friends.
I eventually got free from their devilish ways and started to race up the staircase. I was just about to turn the corner when Sirius The Nerd called out,
"That's the boys staircase."
Does he think that I not know that?
I spun around which is the stupidest thing I could have done. You'd think that by now, some other poor fellow would come along so that gravity could pick on him for once and a while, wouldn't you? You'd think that gravity and I might make ends meet, and finally leave each other alone… well it would leave me alone.
Well, you'd think wrong. You see, for the second time in, lets see, ONE DAY, I fell down the stupid curvy stairs.
GR!
ISHK!
Hmph!
IT'S NOT FAIR!
"I know that."
So I said it somewhat snootily. I can bring out the snootiness when I really want too. After all, I did spend, hmm, lets see, about FIVE YEARS OF MY LIFE in the kingdom of snots.
Anyway, they're sniggering at my pain.
Meanies!
Sirius-the-nerdy-snugglebut no longer.
HMPH!
I walked back up the stairs to my brothers room.
20 seconds later…
"NO"
"YES"
"NO"
"YES"
Sez and Potter looked up at each other in the eye.
"Uh Oh"
So I wasn't there to witness it. I mean come on, big deal. Sara and Rose told me later ha ha, that's how I found out. I might as well put it in.
I stormed back down those stupid stairs.
"NO."
"YES."
Two of them against one of me isn't really fair. But I can hold my own. Me and those idgits - short for stupid - were… disagreeing on my attire for tonight's outing. You see, they wanted me to wear social climbing garb, so the "NO" was most definitely me.
"NO"
"YES"
Wow, they can yell really loud when riled up. Besides, why do they even care?
Hmmm… I have an idea.
"If I have to, you have to."
Their faces both paled at the thought.
HA HA! Go me! Losers. They'll never do it.
"Okay," Charlie agreed.
What?
What?
WHAT?
"WHAT?"
Teddy and I screamed at the same time. Great minds think alike.
Then the twins had one of those stupid eye conversations where they don't speak. That really REALLY annoys me. I mean, come on –
"OK."
Ok
Ok
OKAY?
Teddy just agreed with Charlie.
OKAY?
This is not good. This is not good.
Oh
My
Sweet
Merlin!
Kill me now
"You're going to wear it."
If all else fails shoot the messenger. Say bye-bye Tedward
"Don't even think about it."
DAMN IT DAMN IT ALL! THIS ISNT FAIR!
Evil glare instead.
And then they enlisted Sez and Rose's help to get me dressed. What am I? A three year old?
ISHK!
The end product: the beautiful me.
The decent me.
The Social Climbing me.
INSERT MASSIVE BONE SMASHING SHUDDER HERE!
Now don't get me wrong, I am NOT a tomboy – not that I have anything against them, my best friend is a tomboy. Sorry Daniel my mate! A girl in disguise! – I like magazines and shopping – with the right people – as much as the next girl. Its just certain things I've grown up to hate. Like SSCM's and anything remotely related.
After much wolf-whistling – which I know Henry and Charles set up most likely with the help of Daniel – the three of us left for Dumbledore's office, then for the hospital.
The hospital was…
White.
White walls, white curtains, white sheets, white chairs, white coats, white shoes, white teeth, white bandages, white desks… okay I think you get the point
As soon as I walked in the door, mother was onto me.
"Oh Lilieanne, I don't want you to worry about the fight. You look absolutely dashing. So beautiful. Have you thought more about the offer? You look so beautiful. My darling, all grown up."
Old bat only wants me to take the modeling offer up.
"No, mother, I do not intend to sell my body."
Tell it as it is.
"Lily - "
Lily?
Lily?
LILY?
GR.
I don't know if she's ever called me Lily before in my life. It sounds as weird as calling her mommy, or Sirius smart, or Remus mean, or Potter unsexy, or Rosie boring, or Sez dispassionate.
"Lils, I think you should listen to her."
EXCUSE ME, DAD? I thought that you would be on my side. I have no minions left!
ISHK!
"What?"
What is this, gang up on Lily day?
HMPH!
Well, little Lily does NOT require the whole world to go against her, as she has friends who LAUGH AT HER PAIN!
ISHK!
Well, I shall not give in without a fight. I do NOT want to do some stupid modeling thing-o and that is that.
Okay?
Okay?
OKAY?
So the rest of the night I had to sit through my mother sucking up to me, and giving me the cold shoulder at the same time – yes, it takes A LOT of talent.
So we made it back with Charles and Edward trying to stop me from murdering something.
So I wrote this as some therapy – which I would like to take this opportunity to remind you that Dan the Man gave this to me so I could do just that… I think the redhead temper led him to it…
Speaking of which, I haven't been spending much time with Daniel… I must make sure I do that.
NOTE spend more time with your best friend as people will forget that he's your best friend – hey, I'm too tired to make up something good.
Okay, well I'm tired now, so I think that I'll just do my star chart in the morning
Ciao!
A/n: thank you for reading this!
