*~*Chapter 7:You screwed me Harry*~*
Draco, flanked by Hermione and Ginny, walked into the main store. Ron had his music blasting all over the loudspeaker as he air guitared his way around the aisles.
Ginny picked up an open pack of Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans and distributed them to the staff. She picked one from the pack and held it behind her back. "Ok, let's see who gets to go first. I got a BROWN! Anybody got a brown?"
Ron looked at his bean, then up to Ginny. "Brown?"
Draco and Ginny looked at their beans. "No," said Draco. "Orange," said Ginny with a pout.
Ron ran up to them and showed them his Bertie Bott. "Aw, shit."
"Oh no."
"NAH NAH NAH NAH!!!!" Ron danced around waving his brown Bertie Bott in the air as he summoned a CD from a muggle group called GWAR to the disc player.
A few minutes before opening the store, Draco took out his wand and tapped the magical disc player. The store was engulfed in heavy metal blaring from the speakers; Ron was still dancing up and down the aisles.
"dannannanana..weeeeeeeee! dun dun dun dun..hey! what'cha doin' Malfoy?!"
"Im excercising my veto.. Weasley" Draco walked towards the boxes of Wizard Discs and muttered "wingardium leviosa" to float the discs to the proper aisles.
Ron stopped next to Draco by the stairs and sat down. "But it's only 9 o'clock. You sure you wanna do that?"
"Ron, listening to this crap is guaranteed to make you sterile."
Ron got up in a huff. "Maybe I want to be sterile."
iMeanwhile..in the backroomi
Snape was cleaning up some of the mess that he had made in his angry fit earlier that he didn't even notice that Hermione had come back to work on her homework.
He saw her sitting in one of the corner offices in the back, diligently pouring over several books and scribbling onto the parchment at an incredible pace.
"Hermione? What are you doing here?"
"Arithmancy and Potions. The new potions professor, and I never thought I would live to say this, but she is much harder and more biased against Gryfindors than you ever were. Plus, my dad wants me to get the top marks this year.well, like every year."
"No Hermione, I mean, you know you're not on till this afternoon, right?"
"Severus! It's Gilderoy Lockhart Day!" Hermione almost bounced off her seat at the mere thought.
"Bloody Gilderoy Lockhart day." Snape walked off muttering a string of curses back to his office.
Hermione didn't even notice Snape's dislike for the famous singer. She leaned back on the her chair and chewed on her sugar quill thinking about *sigh* Gilderoy....
*~*.*~*
The Magik Musik Tele Vision (MMTV) was playing Gilderoy videos continually throughout the day.
Ron summoned several magiv t.v.'s to the dais where Gilderoy would be sitting later that day. The video for his latest hit, "Say No More, Mon Amour" was blasting from the speakers. Ron danced wildly around the store kissing pictures of famous witches who's posters grimaced everytime Ron ran up to lick them.
"..lips are for kissing baby, so say no more." sang Ron as he proceeded to lick Britta Sparks, a new pop artist who danced around dressed like a Howart's student gone bad, complete with a very short skirt, tiny shirt, and ripped robes that revealed a voluptuous figure.. Her hit single, "I'm a Veela for You," was on top of the charts as well.
Snape walked out to Ron practically violating the poster of Britta. "Could you please not sing Ron?"
Ron stopped humping the poster and marched up to Snape. "You know what Sev? One of these days im gonna show you little people."
Snape snorted, " Yeah, well on that day im going to jump off my broom and do a dance in mid-air."
Ron chose to ignore the comment and tried to make conversation. "Soooo..how about today huh? Gilderoy Lockhart day." his voice trailed off as he watched Harry come into the front doors. "Uh oh.."
Harry walked up to Snape and Ron, a completely calm look on his face. "Ron."
"Harry."
Snape looked at him, repressing all urges to hex him to the next town. "Harry."
Harry looked at Snape with the same calm demeanor. "Severus."
"Where's the money?"
Harry sighed. "Snape, the money is gone."
They all began to walk to the back room.
"Harry, I know it's gone. Where's it gone to?"
"Atlantis City."
Snape took a deep breath before continuing."Atlantis city?"
Harry sat down on the couch and shrugged. "yeah."
"Harry, it is coming back from Atlantis City?"
"er.I don't think so Sev."
"Harry..what's it doing in Atlantis city?"
"Re-circulating."
"re-circulating?" replied Snape.
"Uh oh. Are you pissed off Snape?"
"Harry."
"Snape."
"Harry."
"Severus."
"Look Harry, I told Mitchell Fudge that you forgot to deposit the money. I told Mitchell that the money was still here."
Harry looked up at Snape. "No, that's not true. It's in Atlantis City..I swear."
Snape grabbed the neck of Harry's shirt and shook him violently. "Shut up ! Shut up!" Snape dropped Harry back on the couch. "Sit down and don't you move."
"It could be in other cities by now." Harry was positioning himself to a more comfortable position on the couch.
Snape lunged back at Harry pointing his wand between Harry's eyes. "Oh SHUT UP! Under no circumstances do I want you to leave that couch. Unless it's to bring me nine thousand galleons, and then you bring it here to me, ok?"
"Snape," said Harry in a monoton voice that grated on Snape's nerves, "I think it's going to be ok."
Snape let go of Harry and pushed him back against the couch. "What makes you think that?"
Harry crossed his legs on top of the coffee table. "Who knows where thoughts come from. They just appear.uh-huh."
"I always said you were a moron Potter."
Draco, flanked by Hermione and Ginny, walked into the main store. Ron had his music blasting all over the loudspeaker as he air guitared his way around the aisles.
