Ch 5 - The Change
Ginny looked at the sign, it read "True Colours". Perfect she thought. She stepped inside with Louise close behind her.
The lady at the counter came over to greet them.
"Hello my dears, will it be both of you today? My name is Isabelle."
"No, just me. Make me different. Make me pretty. Make me anything. Just make me something else." Ginny said strongly.
Isabelle looked at her tearstained set face and grinned slowly. "I am going to make you a goddess," she said. Louise smiled, it was about time.
"Okay get in that chair and spill," said Isabelle, gathering equipment.
"Okay well my name is Ginny and I'm 15. All my life I have been the forgotten child. Even my family forgets me. At school I'm only known as Ron's little sister. I have let people trample and control me my whole life, I have hid inside a shell forever, not showing anyone my inner self. No one knows the real me except for Louise here, and it was going to stay that way. Except something happened to me today. My brother embarrassed me in front of the entire common room. He did this to save his worthless self from embarrassment. That was the last straw. No more am I going to let people get me down and spend my time crying in toilet stalls with no one to comfort me. I shall no longer feel shy. I will no longer mumble and stammer every word that comes out of my mouth. All of that ends today."
"Darling, I know you're going to pull this off," said Louise. "Now, I have some shopping to do for you, my treat."
When Louise returned there was a total of 8 people working on Ginny. She had her eyebrows done, her legs waxed, her body tanned, her hair magically lengthened.
Isabelle walked over to her, "You should have seen the look on her face when I told her she would look great with a nose piercing. She looked terrified, but then she took a deep breath and told me she wanted one," she said, biting her lip.
Louise gasped, "Are you, does she, did you, SHE HAS A NOSE RING?"
Isabelle smiled and nodded, "A tiny emerald stud in her nose, it looks gorgeous."
"That is tres (very) cool!" shouted Louise.
"Just be glad you weren't there when it happened, I thought I would go deaf at the volume of her screaming!" Isabelle warned.
Louise couldn't see her yet, but she could tell this was going to be a drastic change.
~*~*~*
2 hours later Isabella pulled everyone back and looked at her critically. Her eyes widened, her eyes sliding over every inch of her. Finally she nodded and looked up with a big smile on her face.
"Don't show me what you look like until you put these clothes on," Louise said excitedly as Ginny sat up in the chair. Isabelle grabbed the clothes and handed them to Ginny.
Everyone in the shop waited impatiently while Ginny changed.
The door opened. Everyone involuntarily leaned forward.
A high heeled foot placed itself out of the door to the change room. Followed by a tan slender leg.
Ginny Weasley stepped out and leaned against the door in a pose. There was no shyness in her eyes, no unconfident looks.
Louise gasped. How could this be Ginny? This girl was a Goddess on earth.
Her thick copper curls framed her face perfectly, cascading down her back. They must have put an enhancer on her hair because it was literally like fire. The green eye shadow brought out her glowing big green eyes. The emerald at her throat glistened in the light. The white mini skirt complemented her slim tan legs. The sea grass green corset top accentuated her curves perfectly. The high heels showed off her long legs.
Most drastic of all was the sparkling nose ring, which totally changed her face.
Ginny smiled and walked over to them, doing a little walk for all of them. Everyone was stunned. This was a young woman staring at them with her mysterious green eyes.
Ginny then caught sight of herself in the mirror. She gasped, was that really her? She was, stunning.
"Ginny darling, I was just wondering, my daughter is throwing out some clothes that are too small for her, and they would look perfect on you. My daughter loves clothes and fashion and you can have them for free." Isabelle said.
Ginny turned and looked at her, and Isabella blinked. This girl was almost supernatural she was so beautiful.
"Thank-you," Ginny purred. She smiled, now that was a new tone of voice.
"How much will that be?" asked Louise.
"Honey, I'm still in shock. There is no charge whatsoever. It was a gift to help you darling," Isabelle said. "Here are the clothes honey; they will look divine on you."
"Thank you so much!" Ginny said, "I will recommend you to everyone I know. You're amazing at this, I can't believe how much you changed me," Ginny thanked her.
"Darling, you were just hiding yourself, I only found your beauty. You can't make a diamond out of a lump of coal." Isabelle winked.
They walked out of the shop, almost all of the Hogwarts students had gone.
"Here, let me carry those bags," said Louise, still awed at the change in her friend.
"Thanks Lou, I can't thank you enough. You are the best friend I've ever had, I don't know what I'd do with out you!" Ginny bubbled, hugging her friend.
Louise smiled; the real reward to her was finally seeing her friend happy. But seeing her shock all the people who had put her down over the years would be most amusing as well.
Revenge was going to be good.
