Quidditch try-outs are on Friday. That's three days from now. Full moon is Saturday. How, in all four corners of the world, am I supposed to feel well enough to try-out for quidditch? It'll be awful! I can't back down now...now that the marauders know my plans to try out. James will be trying out for seeker, Sirius for beater. I'm going to try out for Keeper. Many positions are open because most of the people on the quidditch team were seventh years.
Full moon is four days away, and I feel dizzy now....It will be much worse on Friday. I hope I don't fall of my broom! The headaches are getting worse. You know, I would never tell anyone this. If my friends would ask how I'm feeling, I'd say that I'm perfectly fine. Well, I lie. I don't want to raise suspicion. Besides, I've been dealing with all this since I was seven....I think I can handle it now, thank you very much.
I know that I'll not get the position in quidditch. I mean, I can barely transfigure a matchstick into a needle on the day before the full moon; it will be harder to fly on a broom. Of course, knowing my friends, they won't let me back down from this....not without a good reason. And, what reason could I possibly give them? They're the MARAUDERS it's hard enough to lie about my....condition, it's impossible to lie about anything else. James is persistent, Sirius knows how to get information, and Peter can make anyone talk. Actually, it's a miracle that they haven't found out about my.....my....condition yet.
Well, I'm glad they haven't. They NEVER will find out. I won't let that happen....I have to try out on Friday. I don't want them to get suspicious and....find out.
