Chapter 2 ~ Shopping and Movin'
(Harry's Afternoon) ~ Harry held down a yell of joy as he saw a clean shaven, and what looked like a still free godfather standing in front of him. Sirius grinned and said " Nice ta' see ya' again Harry, in fact, you might get to see to much of me soon." Harry gaped could Sirius mean what I think he means? " Harry I haven't really gotten the chance to thank you for making me a free man again" he reached into a bag he had brought with him " I thought this could count as a birthday present as well." Harry took the sheets of paper out of his godfather's hands and stared at them wide-eyed. Could Sirius really be handing him adoption papers (don't worry he'll keep his last name)? He looked up at Sirius grinning " I don't know what to say, but this is the best birthday present ever given to me. Thank you." "All you have to do is sign at the bottom since your seventeen now and I'll be your father." Harry grinned as he took the pen that Sirius handed him. He skimmed over the papers. It was true they were all legal. Harry's godfather was soon to be his father. He shook the pen in his fingers looking for the signature spot. He finally spotted it and started to sign his name in cursive, as it required, all the while cursing his bad handwriting. Finally he looked up "well I'm off to pack "dad". Why don't you tell the Dursley's what's going on here." He turned on his heel and strode out with just a touch of arrogance in his step. ~
(Daine's afternoon)- a lot longer then Harry's, I know, but you'll get hp soon and please don't think it's cheesy, because they are shopping!
~ Daine smiled as she looked in the mirror. I look okay as a muggle; she sided with her conscience that's a first. She was wearing a pair of plane flare jeans with a T-shirt that had sparkles on it. I may not look seventeen, " but heck" she muttered "I won't be until Mid-Winter comes along." Her mother strode in wearing plain jeans herself with a nice looking red top on; she had a light wait jacket draped over her shoulder. "Ready to go" she said. Daine had always been the one that had let her take risks and try new things, while her father was just a little to protective. "Ready" I replied returning my mothers bright grin.
~ A few moments later we found ourselves on a subway train that was taking us to the mall. We got off two stops later. I stared around me at all of the shops. My mother took my hand and dragged me into the nearest store that you might know as Abercrombie. While inside I saw the neatest clothes. I wanted it all but I knew I wouldn't need it all so I refrained myself (remember these women usually wear breeches and dresses). My mother and I looked around the store and chose a few items to try on. One was a blasted jean mini skirt with a buckle on the front, the shirt was one of a beach halter top with an A&F symbol at the top, the outer layer was a jean jacket of the same color as the skirt. Both her mom and her thought it was fashionable so they bought it. (Remember the King, Jon, is supporting her in going to this school)
~ Next we entered the bathing suit shop. Now this was fun. As a special treat for those who were staying during Spring Break Dumbledore had planned a trip to the beach for the first or both weeks of the break. My mom quickly caught site of the cutest, red string bikini. She picked out two others for me to try on. One was the indigo color of my eyes and the other was a plain black. I tried all three on. They all fit but the best fitting was the indigo bathing suit. Since we were going for a while I decide on all three. We went to the counter and paid. With that done we left.
~ My mom and I having run around for another two hours buying sweatshirts, shirts, pants, make up, and jewelry were exhausted and hungry. We stopped at a Greaters we saw. I surveyed all the choices and finally decided on Cookie Dough (go her! It's my favorite). As my mother and I devoured our little snack my mom spotted a record or CD store and told me all about the compact disk players and the CDs I could listen to. I was fascinated so our next and last stop was there. My mom chose out my CD player it was the same color as the indigo bathing suit and a pair of chords I had bought. We were flipping through CD's when a girl about my age asked if I needed any help. I said, " yes, I was wondering. I'm looking for new CD's for school and I was wondering if you could help me pick them out." She looked at me as if I was the oddest thing on the planet but helped me anyway. She let me listen to most of the CD's before I actually bought them. In the end I decided on Linkin Park, Korn (dedicated to nats), Nelly, Ja Rule, Eminem, J, Lo (jenny from the block, Christina Aquilara, Dixie Chicks Fly and Home, Now 11 and 10, and also Shania Twain. Pretty good for a beginner she thought as she bought the items.
~ We were walking back to the train when my mom announced " that was a lot of fun we should do it more often." We stepped onto the train and sat down putting our bundles of bags down for a short rest. "Yeah, it was wasn't it." My mom grinned devilishly " you know the prince and all the sguire's who like you are gonna want you to model your new clothes. "So" I said ignoring what that could mean, "and are you going to?" she said holding back a laugh. " If they wish I will show them, but nothing else, of course." We both broke up in a fit of giggles. All the girls new that Prince Roalds brother Prince Daniel had a crush on me but I didn't like him so that was that. Now I sighed back to my life in Totall where I am a pathetic excuse for a lady.
