Dakota and her mother had made the trek to Diagon alley as well, From the train to the leaky cauldron to the stone wall you have to tap in a certain order to get through and frankly Dakota was tired, she was definitely like her father, not a morning person. Her mother tapped the stones and waited as they opened to reveal the bustling marketplace of Diagon alley. They both crossed the thresh hold and Alyssa whipped out the supplies list, debating what to get first.
At Emerald Isle, all the books and robes were supplied for them. All they had to buy were quills and parchment. Dakota looked around the familiar square at the colourfully dressed witches and wizards, meanwhile she was dressed in her Emerald Isle uniform, accented with a few of her own things.
The uniform at her old school was a ¾ length sleeve white blouse with the Emerald Isle school emblem on the left breast pocket, a dark green tie and a dark green pleated skirt that ended about mid-thigh to match. She had on a pair of black slip ons that resembled clogs and a pair of white knee high socks that had the school emblem emblazoned on the top. Around her neck hung her Celtic cross on a black velvet band that she that never came off. Her green eyes scanned the area as she waited for her mother to drag her off to some store to grab her Hogwarts things.
"Flourish and Blotts!" her mother said after a few moments.
"Huh?" Dakota asked, it had been a while since she was there she had forgotten all the names of the stores besides Ollivander's Fine wands.
"The book store, Flourish and Blotts," her mother started "it's over there" she finished, nodding her head in the direction of the bookstore. Dakota nodded as she looked over in the direction of the store. Her eyes went wide as she caught a glimpse of a boy whom she had never seen before, one who given her the strangest feeling.
Oliver had the weirdest feeling come down on him suddenly, he felt as if he was being watched. Which was most likely considering the environment he was in. He looked up and around and caught a glimpse of a head full of fiery red hair being pulled away, which looked like, against her will.
"Wood, hey Wood!" was yelled by a familiar voice through the crowd. He looked in the direction of the yell and smirked seeing the unmistakeable faces of the Weasley twins.
"Fred, George" he said, giving each of them a nod as they approached through the crowd resuming a conversation with Oliver.
"Come on lets get your robes!" Alyssa said as she dragged her daughter into the store and let her go. The laws of physics sucked, Dakota hadn't stopped and she rammed right into the tailor and fell backwards onto the floor, almost flashing her knickers to the tailor the way she landed.
"Thanks Mother!" She grumbled as she stood up, looking at the young handsome tailor and blushing furiously.
"We need some robes for my daughter, for Hogwarts" Alyssa announced to the tailor while Dakota just stood there waiting for instructions. Momentarily Dakota was standing up on a stool getting precise measurements for her robes, with her back to the window.
Meanwhile Oliver and the twins went walking and talking, heading towards Flourish and Blotts they passed the robe store. Oliver, being the closest to the window, looked in, There she was again, he furrowed his brows and stopped to look at her, eyes widening a little, but his watching her was cut short as Fred grabbed him by the arm and dragged him away.
"What were you ogling in there Wood?" George asked looking at him strangely, it wasn't the quidditch store and that usually put a glazed look in his eyes.
"Nothing" he lied as they continued walking towards the bookstore.
"Liar! There was something, or someone in there you were ogling, and it wasn't the quidditch store, so it had to be someone in the store!" Fred continued.
"Seriously there was no one in there and I wasn't ogling!" Oliver said getting aggravated by their inquiries.
"THAT'S IT!" They both yelled as they doubled back towards the store window to see what Oliver was really staring at.
Dakota's robes were now fitted perfectly and her mother had gone to pay for them, she stepped off the stool and took her robes off. Heading towards the register she disappeared from the window and all the outsiders' views. When Fred, George and Oliver arrived back at the store window, Oliver let out a sigh of relief, and a sigh of frustration, seeing that she wasn't there.
"Told you so" he said as he stepped away from the window and waited for them to follow him to Flourish and Blotts.
"Well what do you know he was telling the truth" Fred said as they turned and followed him to the bookstore.
