𝐊𝐄𝐑𝐄𝐒 is just ruining the only elixir of happiness right now. Firstly, Lily kinda ditched me for Arithmancy classes so she can hang out with her dear Keke. Secondly, they are going to the ball together and I did not do anything about it.

Finally, I just keep complaining and complaining that Keres and Lily are together and I'm not getting down into the field and actually making a move. I should really stop giving out such anti-heroic dialogues and the next day act like that never happened.

Also, I've become one of those 'common guys', the one constantly keeping an eye on their crush every 5 minutes to see if they are doing alright and secretly spying on them. It's just depressing seeing Keres and Lily having secrets moments in the quiet arithmancy classroom.

Their smiles and giggles frustrate me. I don't like them smiling. I used to be in his place now, I've got a sense that I've been betrayed. I don't care if I'm sadist. I just want to make Keres into a bitch and I want to break Lily for not being with me (Even though it's like 99% on me).

I walked out of class in a mood for a murder. Maybe I should bury a friend for the fun of it. I just feel so chaotic right now. I just want to urghhhhhh KILL KERES AND GO ROT IN AZKABAN. Ok, I need to take a chill pill.

But, the feeling of a person you have known your whole entire life suddenly starts replacing you is just hard. It'll start with replacing, I'm just scared that Keres might brainwash Lily into the next level of cutting of both of our small talk here and there and then I'll be completely ignored.

I can't let that happen. I think it's time I actually start planning instead of just crying. I need Keres to cheat on Lily.

So I need to find a girl that I can set up with Keres and play cupid. Once it works out, I'll send Lily some cold hard proof of Keres' guilt and BOOM! They break up! And then boom! I make my moves carefully and in about 6 months, she'll be spinning in her highest heels, shining just for me.

I'm no longer going to tolerate Keres flirting and brushing against my Lily. Her pureness and my darkness is a must. It's like yin and yang.

I walked after arithmency to the great hall for meeting my roomies and attend Transfiguration class together. The rest of the day was pretty chill. Except for the part when I accidentally walked into a classroom where Val and Diana were making out. I don't know why I just have a thing that I walk into, 'Make-out classrooms'.

Also a huge update on Judy and Jared actually meeting up and getting to know each other. I honestly think they're such a cute couple. They're just too realistic and it's just so heartwarming to see some simplicity and kindness in the world. They are meaning of 'Love is pure as it'.

Also I love the way how they keep denying that they don't see each other even though they literally went on a library date together like bro, library is literally the top dating spot according to me.

The skies turned from blue to pink and it was the tired and gloomy part of the day. Evenings and just the most chillest period of the day. I love sunsets and stargazing, it's probably the most useless but most beautifully enjoyable experiences out there.

I was sitting with my hands on my cheek scribbling on the back of my parchment some lyrics. I just felt so moody and didn't feel like doing anything at the time plus I have to get back to prefect duties by 9:00pm.

I sat with the window open looking at the pink sky when a grey barn owl arrived with a letter addressed to me. Who the hell is writing to me? There was no sender address either. I opened the letter slowly in a neat manner and it was written:

———————————————————————————

Dear Lysander,

Hi, It's kinda awkward writing to you such a cringe letter but I couldn't think of anything better so, maybe if you're free can we meet at the astronomy tower at 6:30pm? Hope to see you soon <3

With Love,
Aurelia Gold ❤️

———————————————————————————

Well the only part of the letter which left me in awe is that she realised that letter was so cringe. I'm pretty sure she wants to meet me so she can ask me out to the yule ball. Such a shame that's she's going to get rejected again.

Why can't people just learn from such mistakes and embarrassment? I gave a sigh and leaned back and gave a streach.

Then, I just had this crazy eureka moment. OF COURSE! The solution was right in front of me the whole time! I felt a gold rush through me. I CAN'T BELIEVE I FINALLY GOT THE FIRST STEP TOWARDS THE SOLUTION.

Something is going to happen for the first time in the darkest little paradise inside me.

Aurelia and I were destined to meet and we both she was destined to love and I was destined to use her to get Lily. IT ALL MADE SENSE! I suddenly got super excited and I gave a small smile. This was perfect!

I quickly changed from my uniform to my hoodie and got ready to meet Aurelia. For the first time in my life I feel like I'm actually heading in a clear concrete path. I have been enlightened!

I quickly dressed up and changed from my uniform to a black hoodie. I looked at the time. It was 6:17 am. If I start now I can reach the astronomy tower by 6:30 am.

I quickly got myself prepared for my BIG PLAN.

I reached the astronomy tower to get a view of the lovely sunset and the sight of a blonde haired copy cat of Lily. she gave me a sweet smile and said, "Lysander" in a soft voice. I just gave her a bored expression. "I just want to ask, if you would like to come to the yule ball with me?" she asked blushing.

"Be happy I let you complete that question" I shot back at her. She just gave me an annoying smile. "Doss that mean I made a bit of me into your heart?" she asked getting herself excited. "Don't get yourself over excited, I just need a favour and maybe then I'll give you a chance" I said. I can't believe I'm finally on the game. Keres watch out bro.

"A favour?" she asked. "Yes, you see I have this friend called Keres and he's been depressed quite lately. I want you to be his friend and cheer him up a bit" I said. "Keres? Isn't that Lily Potter's boyfriend? He doesn't seem depressed" she said.

"It's not easy maintaining a high profile girlfriend you know? He has all these feelings burried in and I honestly feel only a heart warming and a girl with your enthusiasm can clear his blue. As a friend I really care about him, this is the only thing I wish for AURA, please just help my friend out" I said a low voice with a tint of helplessness with my decieveing eyes of blue and sadness.

My eyes shone in the fake compassion for Keres and her heart raced as I called her 'Aura', her love was something that was meant to be taken advantage of. "You seem so cold, it's just- so nice to see how warm you actually are" Aura said smiling with tears of joy almost leaking from her eyes.

"Thank you, for hearing me out. Usually I don't ask for favours but I was really just impressed by your dedication. You're an angel sent to help me out. I really hope my friend gets back and we should definitely hangout" I said with a soft smile.

"I promise, I'll help you out with Keres amd things will be back to normal. I just heard these freaking rumours that Lily was a psychotic girlfriend and a slut who tortures her boyfriends, I knew it was true, she seems fucked up. Mesmerasing them with her bubblness and looks. All perfect missy on the outside and messed up on the inside" Aurelia said.

OH MY URGE TO JUST KILL HER! DID SHE JUST CALL MY LILY A FUCKED UP PERSON? DOES SHE REALISE HOW FUCKED SHE IS? AND BRO LILY IS NOT A SLUT LIKE NO. SHE'S GOT A LONG LIST OF EX-LOVERS BUT NAH.

I REALLY WANTED TO TELL HER TO SHUT THE FUCK UP AND TAKE A SECOND AND HERSELF. I MEAN BRO GOT LIKE ZERO SUSPECTIONS THAT I'M TRYING TO USE HER. I'M LIKE BEING A MAJOR RED FLAG AND SHE DOESN'T EVEN SEE IT. LOVE IS REALLY BLIND.

"I would say he is pretty stressed from exams too and he can't balance his girlfriend and studies. I mean Lily is messed up but I wouldn't over exaggerate" I said trying to not damage Lily's reputation and spread fucked up rumors created by fucked up people.

Aurelia gave a smile and held my hand. "Don't worry too much, I'm an ambitious person. I have my ways" she said in a reassuring way. "You're a really good listener" I said sugar coating her. She blushed and said, "Haha don't flatter me Lysander".  I am flattering only cause I want Lily my mind voice spoke up.

"We might not be going to the yule ball together but I do look forward to know more about you" I said giving her a fake smile. She giggled and said, "Let's not rush it, nice meeting you" She said. I gave a nod said my final word, "Don't let Keres know that I was the one who contacted you he would be upset" and left.

Of course Keres can't know about me hiring Aurelia to love him or then he'll find out my ulterior motives and warn Aurelia that I'm just playing around and Keres is not actually my friend.

PHEW! I deserve an Oscar for that level of acting. The worst part is that I don't even feel bad about decieving her. Like zero feelings bro, she's kinda like walking into my traps herself and I can't help but use a wonderful oppertunity to get what I want. If Aurelia is an ambitious person imagine my ambitiousness.

Now I have to just wait and watch Aurelia approach Keres and become his friend which won't be much if a problem as Keres is a very social person unlike me. After they get close I have to start playing cupid and make Aurelia forget about me and make her lose her head over Keres. Then Keres and Aurelia will become a couple and I'll be taking Lily from here.

But there is a chance things might head another way. When Aurelia approached Keres he might think he's smart and he might use Aurelia to get rid of me and use my plan of 'make him fall in love with her' and try to reverse the game but luckily I'm on the stronger side. If that does happen I'll have to work overtime to make sure Aurelia prefers Keres over me. 

I've sorted out every single probablity and I succeed in like MOSTLY ALL OF THEM. SO WIN FOR ME! I'm so ready for this!

But one thing I should keep in mind is to make sure that Keres CHEATS on Lily so that Lily doesn't keep thinking about him in heartbroken state wondering if she was a better person them maybe she would have still been with Keres. I don't want that shit. I just want to be the villian of the whole story diguised at prince charming.

I want to be the one to mend her broken bones and glue her heart even though indirectly I'm the who's going to make her suffer. Also I should make sure she never finds out about all mu planning if some how this whole thing works out.

I feel so high. I feel so filled. I feel nefarious and I'm doing something bad but why does it feel so good? This is probably the most fun I ever had in ages. I just want pain, I want suffering, I want blood. Sacrifice is necessary for peace. I want to set Lily's city on fire and also be the one to save it. Decieveing and manupulation and puppeting with the feelings of a human is undignified, cruel, sinful and immoral but at the end of the day at least I'm happy.

I can't even call myself full on cruel because I'm not like destroying Keres and killing him off for good. At the end of the day he'll have his Aura and I'll have my Lily. The only one I'm hurting the most in this process is Lily, but really hope she hangs on cause at the end I promise I'll make it up and make all this bitching and moaning worth it.

With all these negative vibes and darkness I climbed up the stairs to my dorm to open the door to a completely different and chaotic vibe. My roomies and Lily were playing some songs on my record player and singing- no they weren't singing excatly, they were just screaming out the lyrics and enjoying their lives.

"Lysander, we sold you off! Lily is our new roomate now!" Val announced. "How much did you sell me for?" I asked, I would geniunely back off if they sold me for like 1 million galleons. "2 sickles" Lily said. I gave out a sigh and turned off the music and headed towards Lily who was sitting on my bed and said, "Move".

"Ahh, you got sold babes. Go to the girls dorm" she requested. "Firstly even if I want you I can't. Secondly, I'm in no mood for jokes" I said trying to push her off my bed. "Where were you gone?" Val asked me.

"Aurelia wanted to meet up and asked me to the ball. I inviously rejected her but I told her we'll stay as you know more than aquaintences but leas than friends" I said casually and all of their jaws dropped. "Lysander Scamander giving away his friendship just lending someone your homework to copy it off?" Val said. "No way, you love her don't you?" Lorcan asked all surprised with his eyes widened.

"Don't get ahead of yourself" I said in a calm manner putting my hands forward to indicate them to stop such crazy allegations. "Raise your standards Scamander, you're turning into an average dude, falling for a weirdo like her. What made you change your mind? You were like bitching about her" Lily said in a serious tone.

OH GOSH SO THIS WHAT IT FEELS LIKE WHEN YOUR CRUSH GETS JEALOUS WHEN YOUR NAME COMES CONSEQUETIVELY WITH ANOTHER GIRLS NAME. OH YES! I LOVE THIS FEELING!

"Well, she seems different and something just says I need to be by her side" I said adding fuel to the fire. "Such a shame you're lowering your standards for a girl. That's very unlike you" she said with a slight frown and a twitch. "Potter, by any chance are you JEALOUS?" I asked with an evil smirk.

Seeing her suffer like this with every question of mine is just beautiful to watch, it really gives me motivation and the urge to grab her and write my name all over her.

"You wish I was jealous, Lysander, I know you well enough to know that you're not the thpe of person to talk to girls unless you want something. I'll just wait and watch till you prove my statement correct, Lysander Scamander and love! what a joke! My ass" She said. "Still sounds like you're jealous" Val said with a playful smirk.

Lily lost her control and picked up and book on my bed amd threw it at Val as she left. POTTER IS JUST GIVING ME SO MANY SIGNS THAT SHE LIKES ME THIS IS INSANE! MAYBE I GOT LUCKY BEING HER FIRST LOVE, SHE ALWAYS SEEMS TO HAVE A LITTLE THING FOR ME EVEN IF SHE DISAGREES.

"You were joking about Aurelia right?" Jared asked as Lily slammed the door and left. "No" I said in a serious tone. "Wait so you actually like her?" Jared asked. "NO, I was just meaning with her to piss her off. But I need something Aurelia has so I gotta put up an act for a while" I said as I laid on my bed.

"What do you need from her?" Jared asked. "It's a secret, I might seem not very chatty on the outside but I have this while frustrating world inside me" I said as I gave a small chuckle. "I wonder how thinking even works, I just can't think about thinking" Val said. "You're stupid so that's a different case" Hugo said.

"GUYS! I FORGOT TO TELL, THE CATALOGUES FOR PICKING OUT ROBES ARRIVED TODAY" Lorcan said having a moment of realisation as he pulled open a drawer to take out a book full of robes for men.

"Oh yes! I actually decided that no matter what I'm getting navy! Diana already ordered hers and we're gonna match so, NAVY!" Val said as he snached the catalouge from Lorcan's hand and flipped through the pages.

"Show me too" Hugo said squeezing next to Val as Lorcan squeezed in to take a look too. "Oh! That one looks good, I'm sure I'll look good in that!" Lorcan said pointing at a Maroon one. "Don't you think grey or blue will suit you better" Hugo asked. "But Maroon! It just looks so firey and hot like me" Lorcan said smirking. "Your jokes are lame, laugh by yourself" Hugo said giving a straight face.

"Yup! I'm picking this navy one!" Val said as he pointed at a simple navy robe which looked neat and simple unlike Val. I never knew he had such a good taste in fashion.

"I'm going to a classic, how about you?" Jared asked me. "A black full neck shirt with black robes, pants and a tie is all I need with maybe some simple silver chain in my robes and pants" I said.

"That's so detailed, I have no idea what I'm going to wear, I just can't plan things even if I do plan things I end up in the same dilemma atvthe end of the day at the point of choosing" Jared sighed.

"How are you and Judy going?" I asked. "Uh, we talk I guess not much" HE LIED. I literally saw them laughing and giggling today right after lunch. THIS AINT 'JUST TALKING' JARED.

Well finally Lorcan decided on those ridiculous looking maroon robes which no one could talk him out of and Hugo chose a dark teal robes. I got my Aaron Warner style robes so Lily, my juliette can shoot me in my hand.

Jared had this whole darn polling on whether he should get a black one or a grey one. The grey one won cause me and Jared decided it would be awkward and people will think we both were going out if we match.

We placed our orders after a 2 hour long discussion and finalising. At this point the ball became kind of a huge distraction for the 5th years, most of the people who were breaking their heads over O.W.L.s seemed so chill.

I mean it's not a bad thing but that's until the results come and and we see if this ball actually affected them.

I wonder what dress Lily will be wearing. I know it will be pretty but I just really want to get goosebumps and I want to get paralysed once I see her. I hope she gets a black dress. I've seen Lily in black clothes and yes, SHE'S HOT. Green would suit her too. Either green or black will suffice.

The clock struck 8:45pm. I have to attend the daily prefects meeting at 9:00pm. I quickly changed back into my robes and ran down the stairs and through the portrait and I was right in time to see a scene between Aurelia and Keres' interaction. HOW LUCKY AM I?

I hid behind one of the old dusty cupboards to iverhear their conversation. "You're actually pretty cool you know?" Aurelia said giggling. I guess they're already close. Wow that worked out faster than I expected.

"Nice meeting you, we should catch up maybe later. I have a prefects meeting now" Keres said smiling. "I'll be honest you're probably like one of the most welcoming guys in the world, you're such a gentleman and I'll see you around, I have places to be" she said with a smile like sunshine as she and Keres left.

PERFECT! I'll give them a few months to grow closer and I'll tell Aurelia to give regular updates about their relationship on our small meetings and accordingly I'll play cupid.

Then right when Aurelia was half way across the hall Lily stopped her. YO! A BONUS? KERES GETTING CAUGHT TALKING TO A GIRL ALREADY??

I moved closer to eavesdrop. "Aurelia Gold, right?" Lily asked with a pleasant smile. What the fuck is going on why is Lily smiling? "Yes" Aurelia said with great attitude.

"Just saying, I don't care who you are and where you're from, I kindly request you to stay away from Keres. I don't object you both in being friends but, first you propose to Lysander and now you're wagging your tail at Keres? Don't you have any shame?" Lily asked savagely.

"Look Potter, why do you care so much boys are like clothes for you anyways right? I can see it in Keres' face that he can't hold up with your shit" Aurelia said snickering. Oh no she's over acting this is bad.

"Don't dare talk about our relationship like that, you're an outsider. Don't talk without facts" Lily raged at her. "I can see it on his face you little slut" Aurelia said with a grin. Lily was annoyed I could see her red hair bursting into flames but she calmed herself down and said, "I don't care what you think, I know myself" she said with a smile.

I could see Aurelia flabbergasted on the way Lily handled the situation.

"He just needs some of your petty love, give him at least some of that minimal love he deserves instead of always making everything about you and your celebrity status. You realise no one in this world actually likes you for who you are right? They only like you for your appearance and body" Aurelia said.

OK SHE CROSSED THE LINE! WHAT AM I DOING? THIS IS BAD, NOW LILY IS GOING TO- URGHHHH I SCREWED UP! I'M INDIRECTLY HURTING HER SO BAD RIGHT NOW.

Lily looked at her and said, "Believe what you want, I know who I am" she said as she left.

I also left for the meeting. The meeting as usual was boring and Mongrel called me out beacuse of my peaceful protrest in which many students tied out ties as a headband on out forehead. At this point, getting scolded and called out has become the new normality for me.

The only think I couldn't take my mind off was Lily. Her expression, after the conversation Aurelia seemed to have gotten her overthinking about herself. I really want to comfort her but I'm in no position to do that right now. I can't let her know she got hurt cause of me.

Shortly after that me and Lily left for our rounds around the castle. Lily still seemed to be overthinking the situation and drowning herself in her thoughts. I could help but ask her, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, doesn't concern you" she snapped at me.

Look babes, I know its hard. But I'm all worth it. I promise. I know I have crossed the line, but for you I would waste my time and lose my mind. I KNOW I'VE GONE TOO FAR THIS TIME. But don't blame me, you should think about the consequence of  your magnetic field is a little too strong.

I looked at a secret glare at Lily her unsettling eyes and her firey hair. Don't worry it won't be long till I balance out those hues with my calming blonde hair and grey blue eyes.

Go big or go home. I'm not going home today. I'm going make sure I draw blood and make them all bleed. My life's been silent for too long and now the storm is coming.

EXCLUSIVE JUDY'S P.O.V:

I was sitting next to my friend Anya breaking my head over potions class. For some reason the potions Professor hates me like bro what did I ever do to you? I don't know why he loves targeting me for NO REASON.

Today was another day I was zoned out pretending I was listening to his lecture which made absolutely no sense. I was just dreaming about Jared's deep blue eyes.

I can't even beileve that we're actually seeing each other. To be honest I actually liked him since last year. Maybe he doesn't remember the first day we actually met but that was the day I crushed on him so bad.

It was when I was 5th year and he was 4th. I was in the great hall talking to my friends when this weird ass creepy looking dude almost was standing too close to me and I'm not a big fan of being very TOUCHY. But right when he almost hit me, JJ came in the middle and told him to move away from me.

AHHHHHH, it might just seem like a pretty normal thing but for me that made my heart flutter! I JUSR FELT SO COMFORTABLE AND PROTECED! AHHHH <3 

He's just so sweet and geniune. It's so hard to kind guys like him these days, most of them are just two faced liars. 

His personality is as warm as sunshine and ever time I see him I feel like I just turned my pillow to its cold side after a long nap.

"Judy, why are you smiling by yourself?" Anya asked me. "Oh, uh. Just a passing thought" I said. "Or a passing Jared?" my shr said giggling and I hit her on her back. "Shut up" I said.

Our library unoffical date was also pretty cute, he is such a warm person. He is quite hard to talk to at the beginning but after we got to know eachother it was so sweet! To be honest I feel like I want to talk to him FOREVER but sometimes I feel like I blabber too much that I might scare him away.

The most important highlight is that he doesn't give FAKE compluments amd he's just so into reality and I love it! I feel like the past two weeks just sipped away like a bottle of wine!

Meering him in Versailles was like a total coincidence though, like my family just planned a trip and I just apparently met him in such a dramatic way. I must say though he made suxh a good first impression and I'm trying my best to make sure he doesn't find out that I'm crazy head over heels for him.

Our meeting in Versailles really raised my spirits though. I got pretty good marks on my O.W.L.s and I was ready to start making a move this year but before that his friends started making a move on us so all the pieces fell right into place. So yay!

Imagine meeting the boy you loved in a romantic place like France! I felt like I was a character right off a book or a Taylor Swift song!

IT WAS SOOOO ROMANTIC!

I really hope my love isn't one sided though and if he doesn't ask me out to the ball. I'll be kidnapping that Lysander Scamander dude who kept shipping us and ask him what went wrong. If he doesn't have an answer I'll TORTURE. HIM. TO. DEATH.

I swear bro gets high everytime he sees me and Jared like 10 meters apart. Currently I trust Lysander and Val for being our cupid. Hope they execute their mission properly. I don't want to get on the field and play this game. I'm just too clueless and I just can't go around making all these plans.

WELL I HAVE TO JUST WAIT AND HOPE FOR THE BEST! 

I'm just crazy jinxed by his love and don't blame me if I go crazy...
