Dear Diary,
I'm so glad I met Sylvannas and Pyralis. Their meeting Pavarti, Draco, Ron, Kit, and I at The Three Broomsticks. Hopefully, Harry won't see or suspect us...

To make sure that nothing looked suspicious, Pavarti and Draco left first, then Ron and Kit. Hermione followed soon after. They met up at the Three Broomsticks, and went inside, looking for the Ravenclaws.

"Hey! Over here!" Hermione led the gang over to the table. There were Sylvannas and Pyralis, and they had two boys with them. Hermione sat down next to the dark-haired one.

"Hey love, where've you been all my life? Let's meet-OUCH!"

Sylvannas thumped him on the head, and turned to Hermione.

"He needs reminding once and awhile. That's CJ, my boyfriend."

"This is Joe, my boyfriend."

"Hi." Joe said, offering his hand. Hermione took it, and shook it firmly. Draco found more seats, and they all sat down. Ron called over Madam Rosmerta.

"9 butterbeers please." Rosmerta clicked away, writing down their order. Ron turned back around, and put his arm around Kit. "So, what are we going to do about Harry?"

"We'll think of something. Remember the last time something like this happened? With Lavender?"

"Boy, do I ever!" Hermione said feverently. "But I think we should be subtle in reminding him that I am his girlfriend."

"Yea, but how? By the way, if Harry doesn't work out, call this number." CJ slipped her a piece of paper. Sylvannas snatched it away.

"Stop giving out your phone number!" CJ grinned sheepishly.

"I love you honey?"

"Yea right." Sylvannas kissed him, then turned her attention to Hermione. "I get this all the time, don't be flattered. He does this to everybody. Now, about you?"

"Yea, well, what about...making Candi look like a fool? Like....oh, I don't know..."

The butterbeers arrived, cutting off Draco's thought. Madam Rosmerta passed them around, and CJ tipped her. Joe leaned back in his chair, giving Pyralis a back massage.

"Well, what if we simply trap them? Like, let's say we tell everybody that Harry knows, that you're going on vacation Hermione? Then, wouldn't HArry think the coast is clear, and go out with Candi more openly?"

"Then catch them in the act! Oh Joe, you're brilliant!" Pyralis said, and Joe beamed. Draco and Ron stood up and applauded. Joe took bows, and CJ shrieked for his autograph. After they had all settled down, Kit raised another question.

"When and how do you plan on doing this? Are you going to hide Hermione in a box? What about her classes?" Ron smacked Kit lightly on the back.

"Leave that to me, Kit my darling, leave that to me. We'll make up an excuse for the teachers. She'll be in the Hospital Wing the whole time! McGonagal won't suspect a thing. None of them will."

"Nice job Ron. Something's finally working up there!" Hermione said, and Ron thumped her on the head. Madam Rosmerta came up to them, frowning.

"Your bill. You're disturbing my pub. It's the busy hour, you know."

"But ma'am, the place is empty." And it was. Madam Rosmerta blushed.

"Just get out Mr. Antoninias. And take your crowd with you." CJ sighed, and everybody coughed up money to pay. They left, quickly and quietly.

CJ and Joe managed to amuse them for the walk home, each taking turns to pretend to be different Hogwarts teachers. CJ outdid Joe on most of them, but even CJ could not top Joe's impersonation of Professor McGonagal.

They were still laughing when they came up to the castle, and went their seperate ways.
