DISCLAIMER: I don't own them... She does *points to JKR* and I am making no money from this, I'm just enjoying sharing some of my own crazy ideas.
AUTHORS NOTE: I don't have a beta reader right now... so I kept this chapter short. However, I have lots more to send out. Can anyone help? Oh, and I got this idea from a picture I saw. Don't ask me why my brain did this...

Chapter One
Muggle Shops and New Toys


All I could think as I was being dragged down the street by the woman in front of me was 'Why did she have to go to Muggle London in the first place? As a rule of thumb, I avoid this place as much as possible, and she knows this. There just isn't anything here that holds my interest. Right now I could be back at the school with my lover, but no... the first chance he and I would get to be alone in weeks, and she has to go shopping.'

As if she could since what I was thinking, she calls to me over her shoulder while giving my arm a yank. "Come on, you'll love this place. Not to far now."

"Alright, alright Hermione." I said while quickening my steps so she wasn't exactly dragging me along any more.

I noticed a few of the Muggles giving us amused looks and I can hear the thoughts, 'don't they make a cute couple'. BAH, little do they know. Then again, many people, Wizards and Muggles a like often mistake us for a couple, and I just don't have the energy to correct them any more.

It's just that best friends enjoy doing things together, and it helps that both of our lovers are best friends too. So when Hermione suggested that today should be used for shopping, they jumped on it. Of course Hermione said I had to come with her and not him, because we just had to finish our Christmas shopping. Not that I've paid attention to anything that we've done today, all I've thought about is him.

It would just shock everyone if I went up and kissed him though, and it would be so worth it. At least to stop all the questions. However, neither Hermione nor I can have any sign of public affection with our lovers. That's just what we get for falling in love with our teachers.

Oh I know consent wise, both of us are old enough to be with whom ever we want, but it would be frond upon. Both of them are eighteen years older than us. It's the fact that they are our teachers that everyone would have a problem with. But to Hermione and I, that just doesn't matter any more.

"Hey... HEY!"

I shake myself out of my inward thoughts and realize we've stopped. "Are we there yet?" I ask impatiently. I just want to get back to the school.

"Yes, we're here, and I've asked you the same question five times now." Oh shite, she sounds miffed at me, better look like I know what I'm talking about.

"Which would look better, the light blue, or the lilac?"

That, I took as my clue to take a better look around me. "Oh No...." Shit, did I say that out loud... I did crap, where the hell has she taken me?

In one hand, I can see this pair of handcuffs with light blue fur around the cuffs, and in the other hand, a pair with lilac fur. Behind her is this table with a number of other pairs with various colors.

"Oh no?" She's looking at me like I better explain myself quickly, so I blurt out the first thing that comes to mind.

"Wouldn't green be better? I mean..." I stumble as she glares at me, "it would match his eyes..."

Inwardly I breath a deep sigh of relief as she smiles and then turns to look though the selection on the table, forgetting about me again for the moment.

"Hermione..." I start.

"Mmm" Ok, so she's not paying attention at all.

"I'm going to take a look around, alright?"

She just waves me off with a flick of her hand as she bends over to examine a couple of different pairs.

As I walk around the store, every so often stopping to look at something or to look back to see if she's done yet, I marvel at the things around me. Did Muggles really wear this stuff? I mean, it's not even dragon's hide, but leather.

OMG, this is just too weird. That thing over there on the front counter, what was it called again, a Buzzer? There is no way in Hell I'd be putting that up any where. Any way, he's much better.

Just as I was turning around to tell Hermione to hurry up and make her choice, I saw IT. I knew right then that she was right, I loved this place.

I could almost feel the ideas forming in my mind as I reached over to pick it up.
