Chapter Twenty-Five: Shopping
Draco knew precisely what to get Mione for her birthday, it was risky though. For the simple reason that it in fact cost a ton, people would know that 'a:' either potter gave it to her. 'B' or the only other person in school with money to spare did. IE him.
So he planned on letting 'Tom' take the fall again. Draco felt really bad about having to have all of his actions around his friend have to be excused, but it was the only way at the moment. All for the other Slythrins would kill him if they found out the truth. I mean they did claim him as being nuts, just fro a simple thing as being decent.
Draco walked with his head high, hands in his pockets, and robes fluttering behind him in an 'I'm so important' fashion.
Pansy took Crabbe and Goyle for the day, his request, for a price.
He had to get her something as well.
That wasn't hard, in fact he grabbed it right off the bat. A book, one titled 'A girls Best Friend: a Guide to Beauty magic.'
He never would have guessed Pansy as some one who was close to a friend, a couple of years back. But now, he trusted her, not with some things of course, but with a lot.
He walked into the Post office and grabbed an order form, sat down at one of the tables and started to fill it out
Send order to: Hermione Granger
Get money Wrom: BRNVWWCUFPEGAUTFJMVRES
Order: Moonbeam, Broom stick,
Style: Ladies
Color: Sage green with silver accents,
Other: name: 'Mercury' written in gold on handle, wrap, personal whistling call.
On the bottom of the order form, an amount of money appeared, 'two thousand Galleons'
It read.
Then an 'Alright?" with a line, and he signed.
If Mione was getting a broom to fly on, it might as well be a good one. He brought up the envelope with the order within to the counter, paid for shipping and it went on its way.
"I feel like a butterbeer." And he walked out and headed for the Three Broomsticks.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Hanna and Tom decided to go together, so that they didn't get the same thing. Draco assured them that his gift was impossible for them to get a duplicate of, so he went off alone.
They were in the local book store at the time being, looking up and down the rows, for a book Mione would love, that she didn't already have.
Hanna's hand stopped on a silver book that read 'Magical masks: Potions for deceiving appearances.'
"Tom!" She called out "I found one!"
He walked over and looked through it.
It contained the recipe for polyjuice Potion along with other body changing, body borrowing, body shifting potions.
One page he found was hidden under a tough spell quickly he countered it and found it had a recipe for animagery.
"She'll love it." Tom put the spell back on; Mione would want to break it herself
"One problem, its fifty five Galleons, I only have twenty!" Hanna whined.
"I have forty; we could buy this and get her a card, form both of us." Tom suggested. Hanna Hugged him
"THANKS!"
Tom blushed slightly, but shook it off as he paid for the book, and had it wrapped.
"The wrapping cost extra," Tom notified Hanna, "So we have only have three galleons left."
"Let's make a card, and go get some butterbeer." And she dragged him down to the Three Broom sticks.
"Whoa! One sec. Mione could be there!" Tom Shook out of her grasp. Then whistled.
Ebony Flew down and perched on his shoulder. "Take this to my room ok buddy?"
The owl nodded and grabbed the package, flying off to the castle.
"Now we may go." He notified Hanna who beamed.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Harry and Ron were with Mione the entire first part of the day. Around noonish, one of the two however, was always missing.
Ron was the first to leave, allowing Harry an Mione to talk about her home, and things she never told him, that she could safely.
She explained how her friends found out she was a witch, cleverly hiding Draco from the scene.
She told about her 'journal' and how it became a pensive.
"That was what that book was wasn't it?"
Mione nodded. "I didn't want you to read it because.. "
"Its privet, right?"
She beamed "Right."
"I'm sorry I did that, I was just worried and I guess I let my worry go a bit out of hand."
"Its ok Harry, if I was in your shoes, I would do the same."
They walked up that road to George and Freds Shop to say hello, when they walked in, they were greeted by a very happy Ginny.
"Guys look!" she pointed at a gummy candy, sitting innocently on the selves.
Though Mione knew, anything that had to do with the twins of trouble couldn't possibly be 'Innocent'. She walked over to the counter.
"Fred, George! Come on out, I need to know something!"
Fred walked out, they never wore name tags so you had to know them to get who was who. But Mione Knew that it was Fred, his nose had a scar from an explosion from one of their 'wheezes'.
"Fred, what do those gummies do, their new." She indicated the ones that Ginny showed her.
Though Ginny was no longer there, neither was Harry, she was used to this. Those two never missed a chance to kiss a bit since that started going out.
"They change the eaters Hair color, to the color of the gummy." He explained.
"Brilliant." Mione fingered the little gummy bear, which was a nice green. "For how long?"
"A minute."
"Good." She tossed the little bear into her mouth and instantly her hair was green.
George walked out, and started breaking out with laughter when he saw Mione, the Green.
"So how did you get them to work?"
They were used to this, Mione after all helped them to this day fixing their recipies.
"We just used a potion to change the hair color and mixed a little into the gummy recipe and controlled the color with the flavor." Fred explained.
"Rather simple, rather effective." George said once her hair was under control. "though I must say Mione that you looked nice with green hair, it fit you."
"Thanks, I'll take a bag please, assorted." And she put ten sickles on the counter.
"Nice doing business with you Mione." They said at the exact same time, causing her to break out in a fit of giggles.
She left the store in a very happy mood.
"So, what do you think?" Fred turned to his brother.
"She'll be the one, Harry is too close to the line, and has no pull for pranks, brother dearest has never had talent, she could possibly do something to Snape, and no one would know it was her."
"She's no longer the goody goody she was in her first two years is she?"
"Nope, she isn't. I only wish I was there to see what she has planned."
"I almost feel sorry for the staff." And they nodded in agreement. Knowing her, she wouldn't stick with something small, it would insult her abilities.
*~*~*~*~*~*~
Ron was walking towards the Three Broomsticks when he spotted Mione walking away from his brother shop, a smile on her face.
"Mione!" he called out, getting her attention. "They have anything new?"
She walked up and put a purple gummy into his hands and said "eat."
"Not with their stuff, not until I know it wont blow my head off." He protested.
"Fine I'll eat one too." And she grabbed a red one. "Together, one two three." And they both popped the candy into their mouths.
Mione turned to a red head, and Ron had purple hair.
Mione couldn't contain her laughter.
"What?" she pointed to the glass mirror. He looked. "AYAH! What did you make me do?"
"Look at me." He did and burst out laughing. Mione red as the Weasleys was something quite odd indeed.
It soon wore off and that entered the three broom sticks.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Draco saw Tom and Hanna enter, he waved them over to his table, and they sat and ordered Butterbeers. After telling of what each got Mione, they Saw Mione and Ron enter.
Draco knew Ron knew about them so he waved them over as well.
"'Lo Malfoy." Ron nodded to him as he sat down. "Hay Tom, Hanna."
Mione hugged each of them, in greeting then took her seat between Draco and Ron.
"How's your day been going?" Mione asked merrily.
"Great, we went shopping." Hanna indicated Tom, "And got a lot done."
Mione knew what they meant. She nodded and looked at Draco. "I shopped, got something for Pansy for watching the two dolts, came here, and had fun talking."
"What did you get her?" Ron asked
"Just a dumb book she'd die for." She brought it out, Mione examined it.
"She would indeed love it."
Once it passed around the table once, he pocketed it again and looked up, and froze.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
AN: Muwahahaha! I am evil. And yes I did this on purpose.
No don't chide me, I know what I do.
You wouldn't want the next chappie to long would you? Plus any hints would worsen your suffering.
Well review!
