3.37, Hogsmeade, Sitting on a Bench, Unable to Locate the Gang or the Marauders

I'm exhausted from all that sprinting... I never realised how far Hogsmeade really was from Gryffindor Tower... Or that I was able to slide down stairs very quickly.

3.38

Still no sign of my mates... Where did they all go?

3.46, The Three Broomsticks

Found them! They were enjoying Butterbeers without me. Bridge asked me how my date went and I simply told her it did not go well at all, so Sirius should stop being all upset about it.

3.47

Yeah, the last bit I said loudly because the Marauders were located two tables over from the gang. Sirius just looked over here and, for once in the past two days, he isn't glaring at me!

3.49

It's a Hogsmeade miracle!

3.50, Leaving The Broomsticks, En Route to Hogwarts

So far five people have asked me how my date went, including Sirius. He, apparently, got over the whole thing once I said that it didn't go well. Now he's saying that I would've had a fabulous time if I'd gone with him.

3.52

Not likely.

4.19, Gryffindor Common Room

Remus has just returned from the library, Runes assignment in hand. He probably finished it whilst I was sprinting down to Hogsmeade. It's quite fortunate that no one wanted to follow me around today.

4.27

Bridget bought me some chocolate from Honeydukes! She's so kind...

4.29

Although it appears that Remus' fellow Marauders completely forgot to pick some up for him.

4.30

Poor Remus...

4.35

I gave him one of my chocolate bars as a 'thank you' for joining me on the Completely Successful Shrine Hunt.

4.39

I'm looking back at what Remus documented... I sincerely hope, for his sake, that he doesn't tell Sirius about my knickers. I happen to like my blue and red striped knicks very, very much. I consider them my lucky undergarments. And they're nautical!

4.40

What if he does tell Sirius though?

4.41

But he wouldn't, because that would blow our carefully-planned cover.

4.42

And then Sirius would get insanely jealous of Remus because he saw my knickers (and most likely a bit of my bum)... Which will also lead Sirius to conclude that we were doing something.

4.43

Which we were, but not the something he'd be thinking of...

4.46

You know, I really have to stop this obsessing over little things. It's going to damage my sanity one of these days.

5.16

The Marauders just went up to their dorm...

5.18

Now begins the Official Countdown to Peter finding the note, yelping, and simultaneously wetting himself.

5.19

Ten... Nine... Eight... Seven... Six... Five... Four... Three and a half... Two... One and one eighth...

5.20

Ahahahahaha!!!!!

5.23

I can hear their laughter!

5.24

James just bounded down and has asked me to come up to their dorm because I'm "going to get a kick out of this."

5.37, Back from the Marauders' Dorm

I've been laughing for the past 12 minutes... My side hurts so much... But it was such a laugh!!!

5.38

You really should've been there.

5.39

But, even if you were, you wouldn't be able to fully experience the humour since you can't see or anything of that sort.

5.40

Unless you can... In which case I should probably cease writing in here...

5.44

I can't contain myself! I simply must explain the Hilarious Moment of Peter's Embarrassment and Humility. So, I followed James up to the dorm (and also noticed how much taller he was, which isn't fair at all). When he opened the door to let me in, I found Sirius doubled-over laughing like a madman, Remus stuffing his hand into his mouth to keep from laughing, and Peter holding the small note I wrote, a look of terror on his face and the front of his trousers soaked. I mean, I didn't actually think the bloke would wet himself! I was just using it as a figure of speech and all that. But no! He actually did! Which made the whole thing that much more hilarious! I soon joined Sirius in his doubled-over-ness. In fact, I actually cried I was laughing so hard. It was probably the singularly most entertaining moment of my life thus far.

5.49

Whoever said I wasn't brilliant was very much mistaken.

5.50

If that hasn't gotten me into the little Marauder Clan, I don't know what will.

5.53

Not that it's a life ambition of mine to be a Marauder(ette). It'd just be kind of fun.

14th of Semptember, 12.06, Great Hall, Lunch

I woke up about an hour ago... Lily keeps calling me lazy. But it's a Sunday, so why not be lazy? Besides, I was working hard yesterday searching for that bloody shrine under Peter's bed. That took a lot more energy than what one would expect. In fact, I may head back to Sleepy Land after I'm done eating... Sleeping is a great way to avoid Lily nagging me about my essay for Potions and all the letters my mum sends on Sundays.

8.13, Gryffindor Common Room, "Studying" with Remus

I slept most of the afternoon away until Anne and Bridget came bounding into the room, jumped on my bed and then told me to wake up because Remus wanted to study with me. Honestly, they were more excited than I was.

8.14

Right, well I think I failed to mention that Lily and Bridget have converted Anne. She too believes that Remus is the PS that James told me about...

8.15

Don't those three have anything better to do with their time?

8.16

They're watching me... And giggling... And whispering... Merlin knows about what.

8.18

Probably Remus and me. Though he's just helping me with my Arithmancy assignment which I don't understand at all.

8.19

I'm pretending that I'm taking notes...

8.23

I suppose he is kind of cute... You know, the way he looks when he's earnestly trying to help me even though he knows I'm not really paying attention at all...

8.25

But that doesn't mean I fancy him!

8.26

He is just a mate, after all.

15th of September, 7.02, Great Hall, Breakfast, With the Marauders (Minus Peter who Appears to be Sleeping In)

They figured out that I wrote the note. Sirius and James happen to think that I'm brilliant. Bloody mad, but brilliant. Remus is pretending that he is only aware of what James and Sirius have figured out, though he has this knowing smile plastered on his face. James is asking me how and when I did it. So, I just told him I did it awhile ago. Sirius is still asking if Peter really has a shrine under his bed. I told him I didn't know and that I just shoved it under there at the beginning of term when they were off marauding.

7.09

The topic has switched to the Quidditch Try Outs today. We're all hoping that we get some decent players this time. Really, people only come to try outs to see Sirius and James. (Yes, male and female population alike.) I don't get it, but... Can't people just enjoy the sport? Not the way the players look?

7.11

At least I know that no one is watching me.

7.12

Except maybe the other Potential Snog-ee, whomever he may be...

7.15

Remus says that he and Peter will come to watch the try outs. Surely they'll get one or two good laughs in before the night is through.

7.19

Speaking of, where is that little rat boy?

7.23

Honestly, that's what he looks like. Lily compares him to a mouse, but mice are too cute to be compared to a disgusting bloke like that.

7.25

I mean, come on, he has a bloody shrine!

7.26

He's never going to get a girl.

7.28

But that's alright. I don't think any girls want to be with him.

7.42, En Route to Transfiguration

Well, I'm off now. I'll write as soon as possible (probably after the Quidditch try outs).

9.23, Gryffindor Common Room, On Sofa, Post-Quidditch Try Outs

So exhausted. The turn out this year wasn't so bad. You know, after the team banished those who were just there to check out certain people, people who were younger than 13, and people who weren't even part of Gryffindor House. Honestly, don't people have anything better to do with their time? They could be studying or something... (Not that I study, but... Isn't that what most people do in their free time?)

9.27

Sirius just lay down on top of me... Which is rather disgusting seeing as he's all sweaty and sticky.

9.29

He weighs a lot more than I thought...

9.30

Maybe it's just because he sprawled himself on top of me instead of just sitting on me like last time...

9.34

And he's off of me! Go me and my pushing skills!

9.42

Well, they're discussing me potentially becoming a Marauder. I'm listening, sort of, though I'm more so enraptured in my triumph of getting Sirius off of me.

9.46

It's been decided that I'm a "Pending Marauder." I'll have my initiation in the late winter, or so James tells me.

9.48

Back to the Quidditch results: We have a new beater who is fabulous and two new chasers who, with some work, will be almost as good as I am.

9.58, 6th Year Girl Dormitory, On Bed

Well, my pillow is beckoning me... Till the morning, then.

16th of September, 1.13, Divination

Currently trying to decipher the tea leaves... Who knew that tea leaves could reveal our futures? I just thought people used them to make tea...

1.16

Like having your tea leaves and drinking them, and the tea, too!

1.17

Or was that saying about cake?

1.18

I really don't know. That barmy queen, Marie Antoinette, probably came up with that saying too... She seems to have a Cake Fetish.

1.19

Just like Peter and his Marauder Fetish!

1.23

Ahahahaha! That is still the funniest thing I've ever seen.

1.24

He's struggling to unfog some Hufflepuff's future right now. Haha. He can't do anything right.

1.26

Professor Jevois is on the move!

1.37

I have the Inner Eye! I actually predicted Bridget's future correctly! She isn't going to die tomorrow!

1.38

Bridget had to unfog my future. Apparently, I'm going to get with a ruggedly handsome bloke until I realise that I'm madly in love with a kind, just-as-handsome-but-in-a-different-way bloke and I'll break up with Mr. Ruggedly Handsome to find out more about my liking of Mr. Kind Handsome.

1.43

Wait a second! She was talking about Sirius and Remus!

1.44

I think... Well, I know she was talking about Sirius with the ruggedly handsome bit. (I admit, even I can't resist his ruggedly handsome ways sometimes.) But maybe the second one isn't Remus... Although it'd be just like Bridge to throw something about Remus being my PS into my future.

1.47

Professor Jevois, once again, congratulated Bridget on her very clear, and correct, reading of the tea leaves.

1.48

I hate psychics.

1.49

Bridget told me that she just saw Remus and me snogging the daylights out of each other in the crystal ball on Professor Jevois' desk.

1.50

Prat.

--------------------------------------

You know, it's so hard to write an absolutely hilarious chapter and then have to continue. I hope this has been up to your standards (which I'm sure are getting higher with each passing chapter- I know mine are). I'm not sure if anyone happens to take French, but Professor Jevois' name is pronounced "Jeh-vwah" meaning "I see" in French. (It's actually two words, for those who are curious: Je vois.) Just a funny play on words, you know. Anyway, the Wonderful World of Harry Potter (I'm tempted to write "Disney") belongs to J.K. Rowling. Thanks to all that have reviewed so far. But, as always, I beg of you to please, please, please, please keep reviewing! It inspires me more than you know and I love hearing that people like what I'm doing. It makes me have that warm, fuzzy feeling inside that I get when I think of Remus, Sirius, Jack Sparrow or Commodore Norrington. Keep reading, reviewing and being wonderful! Yours Always.
