"Sirius, I'm serious! Give it back!" James' voice rang throughout the Gryffindor tower.
"But you're not Sirius, I am!" a small voice could be heard following it. Lily rolled her eyes, gave her friends a look and went back to her work with Elle and Gianne.

Up in the seventh year boy's dormitory, James and Sirius were both out of breath. James had finally gotten Lily's diary from Sirius and was currently sitting on his bed and clutching his side in pain.
"Well," Sirius managed to say through his gasping. "Are you going to read it or not?"
James looked at the book in his hand and back at Sirius. He shook his head. Sirius gaped.
"Why the bloody hell not!" he demanded, still a little bit short of breath "I went through all that trouble of opening it for you, and now you're not going to read it!"
"Because, if I read it now I'll want to say stuff to Evans. So, I figured, that I'll read it next week at Christmas when Evans is at her house, when no damage can be done." He groaned, and lay back on his bead. "Oh yeah, and thank you so much for kicking me!"
Sirius muttered to himself in disgust and took the diary out of James' hands.
"You're welcome, and if you're not going to read it, I will." He said grumpily, opening the diary to the back.
Suddenly, tiny fireworks came out of the diary, bouncing off of the walls.
"Ok, listen to this. `Oh my god'," Sirius read aloud from the book, " `Soon it's
going to be Christmas, and I am so excited. No more stupid arrogant boys for me. Even though it's the last year of
Hogwarts, I still can't wait for it to end. Yadda yadda yadda, blah blah blah', Aha! I
found it mate, some stuff on James Potter!" he said to James. "Now we will know what the other species think
of you!" James shook his head.
"Sirius, I don't want to know, just give it back!" he demanded. Sirius shook his head.
"No! I want to know what Evans thinks of you. Ahem. 'James Potter infuriates me. This morning I woke up to find myself in a sea of garden gnomes, and I know it was him. What's worse is that they started kissing me and saying stuff when I woke up. Then they started attacking Elle and Gianne for trying to save me!' Mate, that was pretty awesome when you did that, I have to give you credit for that." Sirius chuckled, as he continued on. "'But don't worry, I will get him back, when he least expects it. Gianne and I are planning something big. We would get Elle to help, but she really doesn't have the brain capacity for it. So now I'll leave you with these final words. For everything that James Potter has done to me, I will get him back, and hit him twice as hard than he could ever expect'." Sirius sighed and closed the diary, giving it to James. "Mate, I think she has it out for you."
James shook his head.
"Nah, you think?" he said sarcastically. James put the diary under his pillow. "Come on mate, we've got quidditch practice all tomorrow." He said, and they went to bed. Remus and Peter came in a little later, yawning.

The next day, James and Sirius walked into the Great Hall, closely followed by Remus and Peter, and sat at the
Gryffindor table. Sirius leant into James and whispered to him.
"So, you think she's realized that it's missing yet?" he asked. James looked confused.
"Missing what?" he asked, completely confused, while Sirius looked disgusted.
"MISSING THE FLIPPING DIARY YOU PRAT!" he bellowed into James's ear. James looked furious.
"SHUT UP!" he yelled. "NO ONE'S SUPPOSED TO KNOW THAT WE HAVE A CERTAIN L.E.'S DIARY!" he continued, not at all worried that he was giving away the vital plot to a certain L.E. that was standing right behind him with her hands on her hips.
"Excuse me!" she demanded, "No yelling in the great hall! As Head Boy, you should know better than that,
and it is my responsibility as Head Girl to remind you that! And I think that you should know better than that to not
go around reading Linda Egby's diary, she doesn't like you, and she's a lesbian, so leave her alone!"
Sirius smirked.
"And how do you know that Egby's a lesbian?" he asked. Lilly rolled her eyes.
"Well," she started, "If Potter for once actually did a good job of stalking me, then he would know how I know that Linda's a lesbian!" she said matter-of-factly. Sirius looked disappointedly at James.
"Mate, couldn't you do a good job? I really wanna know how she knows that Egby's a lesbian!" he complained. "PLEASE tell me! And why do you think that it's Egby's diary?" he said suspiciously as an afterthought. Lily sighed.
"Well, there was that time in fifth year that I suspected it, coz she kept on finding excuses to feel me up, then there was that time in sixth that she said that she was a lesbian and started snogging me before I could pull away."
Sirius looked disgusted.
"Prongs! Why weren't you there!"
"And, as to your other question, all the other L.E's are either guys, wait a minute…" she said, looking at Sirius and James suspiciously before continuing. "Okay, so they're either guys, or really ugly girls, and considering your history, Black, I would highly doubt it." She concluded, James nodding heavily at the last remark, before she shook her head and walked off to join her friends at the other end of the table. James turned to Sirius.
"Merlin, that was close," Sirius smiled.
"Come on, time for Quidditch!" James said grabbing a doughnut and racing Sirius down to the Quidditch pitch.
