Undercover Assignment
Andrea Fitzenburg sat in the meeting room of The Daily Prophet, the wizard world newspaper. Her head boss, Arnold Jacobs stood at the head of the table.
"I want to know about Sirius Black," He paused as a few of the girls giggled. "So I've decided to send in an undercover agent to Hogwarts School to find out about Mr. Black's life inside Hogwarts." He eyed everyone as though searching for the perfect contender. His eyes rested on Andrea. "You." He pointed at her.
"Yes, sir?" Aimee replied.
"You will be that undercover agent. Have you ever written a report for this paper?" he asked.
"No sir, I'm just an assistant." She informed him.
"Good," he stated. "This will be your first assignment. You start Monday." He told her and with that swept from the room.
A muttering broke out as people began to leave. Andrea grimaced, how was she supposed to do this?
"Don't worry about it. We'll go shopping this weekend and buy all your supplies." Her friend Maria Carlton told her soothingly. Andrea smiled at her and picked up her stuff before following her out of the meeting room.
"What about this?" asked Maria holding up a pair of straight black jeans. Andrea glanced at them and shrugged,
"They'd look good on you." She said. Maria laughed.
"There not for me, there for you." She said. Andrea sighed and took them of Maria.
"I'll go try them on." She said.
Two hours later after picking Andrea out a whole new wardrobe they headed towards the Leaky Cauldron to get her supplies for school. Somehow Arnold had managed to get a copy of the school list and had given it to her so she could get her supplies.
The Leaky Cauldron was quite dingy and dark with very few customers. Andrea and Maria hurried through to the back and Maria pulled out her wand and tapped the brick that opened Diageon Alley. Once the wall separated both Maria and Andrea hurried through it and headed towards Gringotts to receive Andrea's money.
Andrea sighed and flopped down into a chair outside Fortescue's Ice cream parlour, around fifteen bags sat around her and Maria sat across from her.
"Two Sundaes." She told the waiter who had come over to receive their order. The waiter nodded and left.
It was while they sat eating their sundaes that Andrea saw him.
He was tall with dark hair that fell elegantly into his eyes, which even from this distance Andrea could see were a deep blue. He was turning many heads but seemed to be interested in the shop displays. Andrea's eyes followed him until he stopped in front of Flourish and Blott's for a second before disappearing inside.
"Andrea?" Andrea jumped slightly and turned to see Maria looking at her. "Are you ok?" she asked. Andrea merely nodded for she could not tell Maria about the guy. It was just too early but as Andrea stood up to leave she knew that she would see him again. She just had too.
A/N: Ok, I know the first chapters sort of short but I think it went ok. Please read and review. Thanks ever so much.
