Dear Diary

Chapter 9 - I like trains

Dear Diary,

Time skip to 6th year

Half blood prince year.

Crap.

Dumbledore.

I can't bear to see him die.

After all we've been through?

I thought he knew better than to die.

But as all us Potterheads know, it was all part of a plan.

To let Voldemort think Snape was loyal to him.

Yeah right.

Start of the year

My foster's took me to Kings Cross Station.

I hugged them goodbye.

"The first and last time in the Hogwarts Express, most likely."

I didn't think I would go to school next year, I could just turn invisible and help the Trio on their expedition.

Because I'm that nice.

I hop on the train and look out the window. I could see all the first years waving so eagerly. I don't know how they can be so happy, to be honest. With me knowing about Dumbles.

I walk around and try to find Seamus. Of course.

I find him in a compartment all to himself. He must have saved it for me. How cute is that?

Too cute.

He pats the seat next to him and I sit down.

"Hey, I missed you. You should come to my house in London more." I say.

"You should come to mine in Ireland," he says. He knows that I know it's far away(ish).

Then we kiss slowly and eventually start making out. I can see some of the first years looking a bit disgusted as they walk past.

I stop Seamus from licking my tongue (not that I want him to stop) and open the door a bit. "You'll probably do it when you're older!" I yell down the aisle.

I see the lady in the aisle with her lolly-trolley. Luckily I have some galleons in my pocket. "Oh, hello! Hmm... I'll have two chocolate frogs and a big cookie." For Seamus and I to share.

"That'll be 4 sickles." She says. Is it expensive or something?

I gratefully take the candy and shut the door of the compartment. I give a frog to Seamus. "My shout. You don't have to pay me back if you don't want to."

"Hey you're my girlfriend."

I love hearing him say that.

"Why wouldn't I pay you back?" He hands me a couple of sickles, puts his arm around my shoulder and eats his frog before it escapes.

"I've forgotten how good these taste," he says.

I break one of the legs off mine and nibble it.

"Mm! They are good! They didn't have them at Beauxbatons so I didn't know what all the rage was."

"Rage?"

"Modern term."

"Oh." He splits the cookie unevenly and gives me the big half. Aww, he's so nice.

After we finish eating, we looked at each other and had that moment.

That moment where you can almost read each other's minds.

Then we made out.

I swear we're perfect for each other.

After we had finished (I guess) making out, I said, "I should probably go find the Rejects. You should say hi to Dean. You haven't seen him for a while."

"Yeah, I suppose. Go find your friends. Actually... can I come with you? I haven't seen Liv for a while," he says.

"You've got to be kidding me. Are you two having a secret relationship?" I say, jokingly.

"No, you know I wouldn't. It's just, we got to know each other really well after you transferred and when you and I weren't together. She sent letters during the holidays."

"Okay, if you really want."

We walk down the aisle and look in every compartment.

We found all the Rejects laughing and having fun. They saw me looking through the window and screamed with joy. But there was a new girl. Short with long ginger hair.

"Oh my god! It's Sydney!!" I hear Belle scream.

I open the door and hug everyone. Ah, it was like a reunion.

"Oh. You probably haven't met little Chelsea yet. Chelsea, this is Sydney McVeitch and Sydney, this is Chelsea Malfoy."

I'm a bit confused as well.

"Are you... any relation to Draco?

"I'm his daughter. I came back in time to save someone's life."

"Oh... well that makes sense. Welcome to our club!"

"I haven't seen you in forever!" Says Liv. "Oh that's right. You have a BOYFRIEND!"

"Pfffttt... I had him last year. And don't you have one? A certain... Draco Malfoy?"

All the Rejects scream in delight and laugh. "Are you serious?"

Chelsea had that look of "are you friggin' serious? You're going out with my father?"

"...okay. I wasn't going to tell you guys until you saw me with him but it was meant to be, I swear!" says Liv.

Em asks a question. "Erm... when did this whole thing start between you and Draco?"

"About the time those fireworks went off. By the way, thanks Belle for those. He was standing beside me and had that look of 'hey, you're cute. Where did you come from?' Like he'd never seen me before. Unless I had great makeup on that day. I honestly can't remember, but I swear we clicked straight away."

I look around too see where Seamus was but he wasn't standing behind me anymore. He must've gone to find Dean.

I turn back to the gals. "So," I say to Em. "What's happening between you and Fred, huh?"

She replies in a how-do-you-know-about-that? tone. "It's good..."

"Hey, you told me last year. And besides, doesn't everyone know as well?"

I really suck now. I'm pretty sure I gave away the secret.

"Well, they do now! Thanks heaps, Sydney." And she barges out the door and down the aisle.

"Hey I'm sorry! These things happen!" I shout after her. I slump in the seat and face-Palm. "Ugh, why do I do this? I can't keep anyone's secrets except mine and now one of my best friends hates me. Ugh!"

"She's probably fragile because she's on her period," says Hazel. Belle laughs. Of course. Hazel always finds a way to brighten the mood.

Because that's the way she rolls.
