"I can't wear this, Hermione," said Edward, holding up the blue frilly… thing between one thumb and finger distastefully. It truly was disgusting; the kind of thing that looked good only on a hanger and Hermione had probably been bought without even trying it on.

"Why not?" Hermione asked, looking rather affronted that her offer of clothes had been rejected.

"Well, for one thing, I don't wear short sleeves. And for a second, this thing is disgusting. I'd sooner go outside in my bathrobe than wear this."

Hermione huffed, snatching the top away from Edward and turning back to the drawer, rummaging through the piles of clothing once more. She seemed to be growing more and more frustrated with every top she pulled out and discarded, growling under her breath and muttering angrily. Edward felt it was time to step in when she pulled out yet another tank top and discarded it without even looking at it. Ed snatched the black material out of the air and, leaning over Hermione's shoulder, plunged his arm into the drawer and pulled out a long-sleeved red shirt he had noticed earlier.

"Thanks Hermione. This'll do."

Edward practically ran from the room, clattering down the stairs and leaping over the banister, diving into the bathroom just ahead of a tall redhead. She slammed the door behind her and leant against it, breathing a sigh of relief. Gah. Merlin knew she was a nice enough girl, but did she ever just stop for a moment? Edward shook her head amusedly and dumped the clothes on the floor, turning the shower on.

She was rather quick with her wash, carefully making sure that no water got trapped in the ends of her/his fingers or in the crook of her elbow. It wouldn't do the mechanism any harm, but it was rather a hassle to try and explain away the puddles of water she left everywhere when she forgot to dry it out.

It was as she was fiddling with her hair, debating on whether to alchemise it dry or just plait it and let it dry naturally when she heard her name being called.

"Ed? Ed, dear, there's someone here to see you. Can you come downstairs please?"


Author's Notes: This is something that jus randomly popped into my head. Yes, Edward is a girl. There's no real point to this, but I like it because it flows so nicely. A random piece of writing that I enjoyed doing.
