"Thanks" Hermione said.

"What are you going to get?" Draco asks her as they walked around the rat section of the store.

"Don't know, how about you?" Hermione said.

"A cat or a pup, I got like three owls at home" Draco said as they ass the owl section.

"How about we get one for the two?" Hermione said.

"Why?" Draco said.

"Less trouble and less mess and noise" Hermione said.

"This one doesn't. It says here, that he's going to stay like a pup for the rest of his dog years, seeing that he's not a normal St. Bernard and he throws fire balls when he's mad, Ice balls when when he's sad, he creates strong winds when he's scare" Hermione read the label on the glass case where the puppies where being kept

"Really?" Hermione said.

"Why not... he's not going to wreck the place, maybe I'll teach him a trick or two, I always thought of having a pup" Draco said as he petted the puppy on its head as it bark happily at him.

"Oh thank you" Hermione said as she hugs him tight around the neck.

They stayed silent and still for a minute, both blushing as the puppy barked and broke them up and Hermione let go as they both look away blushing.

"Umm... okay, let's get his stuff and pay for them. We got to get the things for the ball and our costumes" Hermione said.
