Chapter Nine:
Dear Diary,
I have found the perfect professor for our DADA club. Alright, admittedly he's not a professor, but I don't know how I didn't see it before. He bested Voldemort as an INFANT. It just kinda smacked me in the face the other day. Needless to say, Harry is going to teach us a thing or two about defensive magic.
He really is our best bet. This way we won't get any other professors in trouble. Umbridge can't really expel Harry, can she? That wouldn't be in her best interest. Half the Wizarding World might think he's bonkers, but they've already tried that once before… We'll just have to make sure he doesn't get caught. And believe me when I say I will do everything in my power to make sure he isn't caught.
Ron would never forgive me. And Harry, well at least he wouldn't blame it on me. Harry actually has a brain that functions, unlike Ronald.
He tried to pick a fight with Draco today, just to make me angry. He asked Draco how his girlfriend was doing. "Ohh, wait. She dumped you when she caught you cheating, with LUNA, right, Mate? Bummer, Pansy just might go after Harry now, you know. Bloody hell, after you she might even date ME. Not that I'd want your trash. You didn't exactly set the bar high, did you?"
I could have slapped him right then and there except Draco's response left me speechless. "If Pansy willingly dated you, I'd have to show Granger a good time just to get even. Then again, after five years of a crush on you, it wouldn't be very hard to raise her bar a good foot or two, would it Weasel-Bee. Watch your back or you'll be the next one I crush on the Quidditch Pitch."
Ronald demanded what the "bloody hell" he was talking about and I laughed, out right laughed.
If Draco Malfoy thinks I'm going to willingly date him to get back at Ronald for dating a Slytherin slut he's got another thing coming. And I told him so, to his face. If Ronald was stupid enough to date Pansy I'd get even by dating Harry.
All three of them looked at me like I'd grown a third head.
"Harry? You'd date scar head over me? Really? Granger can you get any stupider?"
I of course had to remind him that dating him would be suicide because I'd never know how many girls he had on the side. If I could get over the fact that I'd be dating a servant of Voldemort, that is. You should've seen the way he cringed. He's such a coward.
Ron was furious. "You wouldn't date Harry! Harry's like your brother. Please tell me you'd date Draco first. I can kill Draco."
He never mentioned that he couldn't kill Harry for dating me. Or that he'd kill Draco and Harry both for dating me because HE wanted to date me. But it felt like a confession all the same. He's getting closer.
I never realized that Draco knew how much I liked Ron though. Am I really that obvious?
If I'm so obvious why can't Ronald see it? Or does he see it and not want to be with me? And what makes Draco think he can show ANYBODY a good time?
He did apologize to Luna. You should've heard him sing, Diary. He's not half bad.
Boy! Diary I swear they'll be the end of me. I'd love to sit here longer and elaborate on how exactly they're going to kill me, but I've got to go convince Ginny that I'm not after Harry in the slightest.
With Love,
HJG
