Who Knew?
After much gossiping and chatting, Marisa and I finally went to bed. I felt good after the movies, but I was still worried about the thoughts of people in London. I know I shouldn't be, but I am.
The next morning, we woke up early to catch our flight. Marisa's mom, Julie woke up too; she made us pancakes and sausage. She is the best cook ever. But she also had to take us to the airport. As we were about to leave, Julie made us make sure we packed everything we needed. We went through a checklist of items such as our wand, pets, robes, and others. I grabbed my iPod and went to Julies van.
A good hour later, we arrived at the airport. All flights were running on time, so we boarded the plane at 6:30 am. We mostly slept on the flight, and Marisa touched up my makeup. Lets face it, I was feeling very confident with my new look. Even though I was just wearing sweats, I was getting all sorts of stares from the cute guys also on the plane.
What seemed like forever later, we finally arrived in London. We took a cab to the Leaky Cauldron to get our room and drop off our stuff.
"Hey Tom, can we get our key please?" Marisa asked.
We got our key then headed up the stairs. We opened up our room and put our bags in there. Marisa and I decided who gets what bed, then got our purses and left to go to Diagon Alley. As we left our room, we heard music blasting and a guy talking across the hall.
"I hope he's cute!" I said, laughing as we left.
The first place we went to was Gringotts Bank. We went with the goblins to each of our vaults to get money for shopping and what not. We left the bank, to head over to Flourish & Blotts.
We got all our books, but were really hungry. So we headed back to the Leaky Cauldron to get some food.
Tired and jet-lagged, we went to turn in for the night. We were hoping to get a glimpse of our "neighbor" but once again the door was shut and music was blaring.
"Night Marisa," I said and I immediately fell asleep thinking of tomorrow's plans. Eeylops Owl Emporium, Quality Quidditch Supplies, and the Apothecary for our potions stuff.
We woke up bright and early for shopping again, and when we left our room, the room across the hall was quite for once, and I was silently hoping for a glimpse next time. We got all of our supplies to leave for school in a few days time.
Shopping done, and not wanting to go back the our room quite yet, we decided for ice cream at Florean Fortescue Ice Cream Parlour. After gossiping and many brain freezes, we headed back to the Leaky Cauldron to turn in for the night. We went up the stairs, only to hear a familiar, slightly louder noise coming from the mysterious room. I had only just realized why the noise was suddenly louder. The door to the room was cracked open just slightly.
"Ugh, I'll never get to sleep with that jerk blaring his music!" Marisa whined.
"Don't worry," I reassured her. "Go get ready for bed, I think I can handle this one."
I walked over to the door, and Marisa went inside our room, I decided to check it out. I knocked a few times on the door, and when no one answered I shouted, "Turn the music down! Some of us might just be trying to go to bed!" Again no one answered me, so I pushed open the door, just a little to find out who it was.
Before I knew, I saw a flash of white-blonde hair and then the door slammed in my face. "If I wanted your opinion on my music, I would have asked! Now get out!" I heard Malfoy bellow out. Smiling to myself, I walked back to our room in listening to the now quiet hall.
