we walked outside and into Dirty Secrete. And the name, said everything about the store.

*Draco's pov*
She had been in that changing room, for ten bloody minutes!
"Weaseltte, come out!"
"No!"
"Weasley."
"NO!"
"I've seen you in a bikini. This is no different." I heard her sigh. She was going to come out. I smiled. When I saw her in that bikini...I almost lost it. Okay, yeah, I kinda, sorta, maybe think she's beautiful, and sorta amazing at Quidditch, and she's got eyes that make me melt, and to top it all of, I get to see her great body, not once, but twice, today. I had a feeling it was nice, but not that nice. My eyes were glued to the door, and I bit my lip as she shyly opened the curtain. She stood there with her head bowed, and flushed. I knew that gawking was wrong, but oh Merlin, she was... Beautiful. She was wearing a white bra, covered in lace. It had the option of being strapless as well. She had on matching underwear, but when she turned around, to run back into the changing room, I saw that on her butt, in green sequins, were the words 'Bite Me' with a little winkey face. I gulped as i felt my pants get tighter. I walked over to another rack, and grabbed some slips, and corsets. They weren't the kind of corsets that tighten, they were for style. I walked back to the changing room, and gave her the "clothes" I picked out. I took the undergarments from her hands, and checked the size. The owner of the store had a personal collection, and due to Ginny saying my mothers name, Jezibell, the owner, had taken a personal interest in helping the Weaslette, and decided to take exact measurements. She was now, in the back, making her a corset, and bras, and underwear to wear with everything. They were skin toned, and also black, and white. Ginny came out fully dressed, and we walked to the counter to wait for Jezibell. I stood there drumming my fingers against the desk, and waited for about five more minutes. Jezibell came out grinning ear to ear. She handed Ginny somethings wrapped with tissue paper.
"How much do I owe you Jezibell?" I asked pulling out my wallet.
"Nothing Draco. I loved making these. It's been so long since I've been able to do something like this for a pageant." I shrugged and nodded, putting my wallet back. Ginny furrowed her brows, and took the tissue paper wrapped objects. We turned and walked out of the store. Before we left, I saw Ginny slip thirty five Galleons in Jezibell's shirt sleeve. I shook my head at what she did. We walked out of the store, and that's when we heard the noise. Well... It wasn't really a noise, but rather a voice. A very loud, very obnoxious, very nasiely voice.
"Me and Drakey, well we're going to get married. It's going to be in the spring, and it's going to be beautiful."
"But Pansy, you aren't dating yet..."
"After I win this pageant we will be. I heard his mother talking about it. The winner of the pageant, gets a kiss from Draco. And after we share that kiss...He won't be able to resist me." Pansy said smirking. I paled as i saw her turning a corner
"Shit. Shit. Shitshitshit!" I grabbed Ginny's arm, and dragged her into the ally on the side of Jezibell's store. I shoved her up against the wall and pressed myself against her.
'I just hope these shadows can hide us from her...' I thought. I turned to look at the Weaslette, and lost my breath. Her hair hair was wild. Long ringlets fell in her face, and over my shoulders. Her eyes were wide, and her plump lips were open slightly in a small 'o'. She never looked more beautiful. I licked my lips, and leaned down. I saw her eyes close before I closed mine. My lips lightly brushed hers, and I jumped back. It felt like someone had sent fifty volts through me. I looked at her. Her eyes were wide. She blushed and looked down.
"Uhmm...I think we should go look for the rest of my clothes."
"Yeah, uhm, you're right." I said scratching the back of my head. We walked next to each other, keeping an eye out for Pansy as we made our way to the next store on the list. We looked up at the big gold sign. It had no name, but I knew it was the one because I heard Ginny gasp as she looked into the window. She was looking at the hundreds of dresses in the store. I looked down at the list
'Asmarelda's Dress Emporium
New You Hair Styling
Hannah's Handbags
Wonder Woman Withinx
Dirty Little Secretex
Summer Lovingx
Bertha's Business wear.'
'Well we can kill two birds with one stone at this place. and Bertha's is right across the street.' I thought to myself, taking Ginny's arm and quickly pulling her into the store. We walked to the back of the store. There was a young mousy girl with sandy hair. She looked up to me with her big blue eyes, and they darted away. I rolled my eyes. She obviously knew who I was. I looked at her.
"We need Asmarelda. Now." The girl quickly nodded her head and ran off. Ginny snorted from besides me.
"And you told me to be nice to people? Riiiighht I'm the one who needs to be nice." I chuckled at her, and looked up to see a woman in her mid thirties. She had long black hair that flowed like silk. She had dark, sun tanned skin. She had nice warm brown eyes, and a proud nose and cheek bones. She was wearing a pelt skirt, and a red top embroidered with black, red, and brown beads. She was proudly showing off her Native American roots.
"Now how may I help you two?" She said kindly smiling, showing off her perfectly white teeth.
"I-I've come for a dress. Narsissa said that you would help me find something."
"Actually, you need two dresses. Evening and ballroom." I said looking from Ginny, to Asmarelda.
"Well you two have come to the right place. Come here dear, fallow me so I can take your measurements. And you, you'll help me pick out the dresses." We walked over to half circle of mirrors with a door in the very middle. She took Ginny's measurements and went to find dresses.
"What school are you from?"
"Hogwarts."
"What class?"
"Gryffindor." After about five minutes, Azmarelda shoved a dress into the changing room Ginny was in. She changed fairly quickly, probably because she knew she'd have to come out anyway. She was wearing a v neck strapless dress. It was red silk, that shimmered gold in the light. I cringed. She. Clashed. Red just wasn't her color.
"Take it off. Right. Now."
"What? Why? I like it." Ginny said, spinning around. It fit her well. It clung to her in all the right places...but,
"Your hair looks dead and lifeless, and your eyes look like dead fish eyes. That's why you need to take it off." She turned, and looked in the mirror. About two minutes later, she slowly started to nod her head, and walked into the changing room. I whispered to Azmerelda and she smiled, nodding her head as she walked to the back. She came back in three minutes with an armful of something in a black zippered bag. She opened the door to Ginny just a crack, and handed her the dress. I heard Ginny unzip it, and gasp. She quickly put it on, and came out grinning. My heart stopped. She looked stunning. She was wearing a skin tight, strapless lavender dress, with dark purple lace over the top. The bust of the dress was a dark purple, with lavender silk ribbon at the bottom, making an overlay. Holding the two pieces if silk ribbon was a deep purple, and silver rose. A little further down under her butt was a line of those roses, holding up a layered skirt. It was the deep purple of the lace, and the same lavender color. It looked like a dress that a flapper girl would wear. It fit Ginny perfectly. I walked over to Azmerelda.
"Do you have a dress, that's kind of old timey like that? And can it be green? Her hair and complexion would be great with a deep green dress."
"That's a great idea! You're such a good boyfriend! I wish I had one like you." She smiled as she walked off.
She came back ten minutes later. and gave Ginny the dress. She went in, and changed. When she stepped out of the changing room, it was like she went back into time. She was wearing a dress, that was tight on her curves and torso, and it poofed out at her hips. It was a deep emerald color, with spaghetti straps. There was a fan like form of cloth on the bottom front of the right arm, and a small bow of ribbon on the bottom front of the left arm. The bust was singed. There was another small ribbon bow on her left rib. The sides were hinged up, creating a wave like effect on the front and the dress looked like large cutouts if ribbon like material. The underskirts were black. When she turned around, there was a part that was bunched up, and then hung down. And there was another bow. She looked...
"Amazing..."
"What?" Ginny said smiling.
"Uhm..nothing."
"Nuuh. You said I look amazing!" Ginny said, playfully pushing my arm. I blushed and looked down.
"We gotta go to Bertha's. How much for the dresses?"
"I'll just put it on Sissa's tab." Azmerelda said smiling at us. Ginny went in and changed her clothes, and we walked out of the store. We were talking, when all of a sudden.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA!*snort* HAHA! *snort* HAA!" Pansy's laugh was running through my head. I shuddered and looked. She wasn't more than ten feet away. Ginny gasped and grabbed a newspaper, and handed it to me. She pushed me off and walked past Pansy, knowing what would happen.
"EW. What's that doing here?"
"Oh. Hey pug-face. I didn't know you were here. I thought there was someone killing a pig. What with all of that snorting." Ginny said casually. I laughed. The look on Pansy's face was priceless. Ginny looked over at me, and seeing that I still stood there, she signaled for me to put the newspaper over my face and run across the street. So I did what I was told. I ran across the street, and into the store. I looked out the window, and watched what was about to happen.

*Ginny POV*
I made sure Draco was across the street. Pansy looked at me, and that's when she noticed that I had bags in my hands.
"What did you buy?"
"Oh, these? They're some of my clothes for the pageant. Well I gotta go. Bye." I finished and walked off into the store Draco was in.
