"So where's the shop?"
"Right here" Draco told me as I kept my cloak tight around me and I walked in, holding the door for him as I glanced about, the walls a dark navy blue colour with glowing silver shelves as a smile formed on my face and he walked past, glancing at me when he stopped
"Come on"
"Oh, right, yeah" I mumbled as I followed him, laughing quietly to myself as I followed him to the back corner of the shop, looking at the shelves that had piles and piles of gloves stacked up on them as I stood on my tip toes, trying to look at them before I picked out a black pair with gold stitches as I smiled before looking to Draco
"Are they the ones you're getting?"
"Probably, yeah" I told him with a laugh as I turned and followed him over to the counter, stopping at a desk as I stared at it, my eyes glued on a bright quill, my eyes lighting up as I picked up the Phoenix feather quill
"What're you looking at?"
"This.... look at it" I said to him quietly, holding it up to him as he looked at it before glancing to me
"It's a quill-"
"No fucking shit Sherlock" I said to him, grinning as he rolled his eyes, trying to hide the amused look as I kept both in my hand and dug my money out before paying. Leaving, we looked about, getting side tracked slightly by the wind as I looked at him
"I really hope it's not like this for our match against Ravenclaw"
"If it is, I won't be happy"
"You've never been happy in the first place"
"Wow...."
"I'm sorry, that was rude" I apologised laughing as we finally came across Blaise, Pansy, Daphne and Theodore
"Blaise, look! I got new gloves!"
"Lia, we've been friends for, well, three years now, yeah? And your taste in fashion still sucks? Merlin!" He exclaimed laughing after looking at the gloves I had held up to him as I scowled at him, jabbing him in the chest with my finger
"Okay, Blaise, let me tell you one thing. Never laugh at your friends choices because if you forget: you're one of them" I reminded him, my eyes narrowed as he stared at me before glancing away
"Damn, I feel so attacked"
"Good-"
"Anyway! I want a butterbeer. Amelia? Are you coming?" Nodding to Theodore I grinned at him before linking arms, starting to laugh as I looked to the others over my shoulder as they glanced at each other and we walked to the Three Broomsticks, grabbing a booth in the corner as Pansy appeared by my side, Theodore disappearing as the rest made their way over and I grinned at her
"Pansy! What's up?"
"I was wondering if you could hold my gloves for a second?" She asked as I looked at her confused before she passed me them over
"Uhm sure, but why?"
"Well I usually warm them by the fireplace... but you're way hotter"
"Okay. That was a good one" I said quietly after a slight pause as we both started laughing, sitting down as she winked at me and Theodore came over with Daphne, both carrying drinks as he sat down next to me
"How do you think the Ravenclaw match will go?"
"Alright-"
"Shit. Absolute shit" I cut across Draco, shrugging slightly as I stared at Blaise blankly, a laughing coming from Daphne as I looked at her with a smile
"Nah, seriously though, Flint has had us down at the pitch every single night these past few weeks. So if we don't do well: we're screwed"
"That's one way to put it-"
"That was blunt-"
"An understatement"
"True, Draco, true. To rephrase it: if we lose then we're fucked. He'll slaughter each and every one of us"
