Dear Diary, (It feels odd starting off with that)
I am quite sorry I have not written in you in so long! You must have sorely missed me! The reason I have not written, you might be asking? Why, because I could not find you! Yes, dear diary, I admit to having lost you for eleven entire days! But, thank goodness, I finally found you today. You were in my pillow, exactly where I had left you. Only I had forgotten that I left you there, hence my losing you...
Anyhow, tomorrow is Hogsmeade. Kathy is going with Sirius. They're back together, which I'm quite glad about. I really do want her to be happy, and I've been feeling so guilty about what I did to her with Sirius and all (though she still doesn't know).
Anyway, Alice is going with Frank Longbottom, a sixth year she's like for a rather long time. And Rosie is going with Andrew Piazza, the beater from the Ravenclaw Quidditch team.
That just leaves Lily and me to go together. Oh, speak of the devil, here she comes now!
7.22
Lily is bow going on a double date with Alice and Frank with some bloke called Garret Nolan. Leaving me all alone.
"I'm sorry, Grace," she said. "Maybe you could ask Remus to go..."
Maybe I will.
7.30, Common Room with Remus.
Remus, write with me!
Well, aren't you pushy.
It worked, didn't it? You're writing.
That I am, Gracie.
So, Remus, any hot dates tomorrow?
Nope.
You didn't ask that girl you like?
No point. She'd say no.
Well, who are you going with, then?
Alone. Sirius is going with Kathy, of course. And James and Peter have detention.
Want to go together, in that case? I was going to go with Lily but now she and Alice have some double date. And Rosie's going with her new boyfriend...and Kathy and Sirius...
Sure, sounds like fun.
Okay. It's a date.
Really?
You're blushing.
No I'm not.
You are.
So?
So, do you want this to be a date?
Do you?
I don't know.
Okay.
So do you?
Maybe.
Yeah. Me too.
Yeah.
Okay...well, bye then. See you tomorrow...
Bye.
Saturday, September 18, 10.34 AM, Dorm.
This is officially doucmented by Kathleen Marie Forbes, best friend to diary owner Grace Cassandra Jones.
I feel official.
Anyway, I insisted Grace document what she is wearing on her BIG DATE (though she won't call it a date) with a certain Remus Lupin.
She didn't think her clothes and makeup stuff were important.
I insisted they were.
She retaliated she didn't fancy Remus so it didn't matter.
I insisted it mattered.
She said, "Fine, you want it documented, write it yourself."
So I am.
I picked out Grace's clothes myself.
She is wearing a black V-neck sweater, which beautifully shows off (not to obviously, which would be slutty) her LARGE BREASTS that I am very jealous of.
Anyway, on the bottom she is wearing a light gray tweed skirt which I gave her for her fifteenth birthday.
Her shoes are black ballet flats. All in all, she looks lovely.
I wanted to describe her hair and makeup (down and wavy; just mascara) but she won't let me.
I did a lovely job sneaking it in.
And now we're off to out dates!
8.09 PM, back from Hogmeade, dorm.
Hogsmeade was good.
We went to all the shops and everything, and that was fun.
And then it started to get exciting!
We were in the Three Broomsticks and we ordered butterbeers and then we left and we were outside and we were just walking back to the carriages and he put his arm around me! It was nice.
And then we were getting in the carriages to go back and he had to take his arm away, but once we were sitting in the carriage he put it back!
And then when we got off he had to take it away again and he put it back again! And we walked all the way to the Common Room like that!
So we were in the Common Room and I was like "Well, I had a great time." and he was like "Me too." and I was like "Okay, well, I'm gonna go upstairs to my dorm." and he was like "Yeah, me too. Night, Grace." and I was like "Good-night, Remus."
And then he kissed me!
I mean, we've kissed before, but that was just snogging. We've never just had a kiss. And it was nice. It meant more than the snogging.
It meant he liked me.
And...I think I might just like him.
