Shopping
March 30th 1996
It was the first Saturday since Rose woke up, the headmaster has allowed her to go shopping for new clothes since she has been using Daphnes for the last week. The headmaster also allowed her to bring two friends with her, hoping that she would chose Hermione and Ron.
Walking down the stairs, in a black skirt with a dark green blouse, Rose made her way to her friends. „The Headmaster allowed me to go shopping today“ exclaimed Rose while she sat down on a chair „and i was wondering if you would join me Daph?“
„Where are we going at what is the budget“ asked Daphne. „Diagon Alley and no budget i just got the new card from gringotts“ said an exited Rose. While the girls were talking, Draco was sulking on the armchair he was sitting in.
Walking to his armchair Rose whispert into Dracos ear „The headmaster allowed me to bring to friends, so would you like to join me and Daph on our little shopping trip?“ Dracos face light up like a childs face on christmas morning, if someone loved shopping it was Draco Malfoy.
„When are you guys leaving“ asked Blaise. „Probably after breakfast“ said Rose. With that the six slytherins made there way to the great hall.
Finishing there breakfast Rose, Draco and Daphne made there way to the headmasters floo with Professor Snape. Enterin the headmasters office the three slytherins saw Weasley and Granger standing by the floo with theyre head Professor McGonagall. „What are Greengrass and Malfoy doing here“ Weasley spit out.
„There here to accompany miss Potter to Diagon Alley mister Weasley“ came Snapes calm voice from behind the slytherins. „That’s not true we are here to go with Rose to Diagon Alley“ fussed Granger „after all we’re her best friends.“
„I don’t even now you and the headmaster said i could chose two friends to come with me, not him choosing who comes with me“ said a rather annoyed Rose "that is why Daphne and Draco are here, so you can leave now.“
„No, we were told to come with you so we will, I don’t care what you want“ screamed a now read headed Weasley. „Well tough luck it is my life, my choice and i chose Daphne and Draco so bite it, Weasley“ argued Rose. „I think it is time for you three to go before you waste more time“ said Snape and handed the three the floo powder.
Stepping into the floo, Draco took the floo powder and shouted „Diagon Alley.“ Leaving a red headed Weasley and a pissed off Granger.

After arriving at the leaky couldron, the three slytherins made theyre way into the richer part of diagon alley. Most people either didn’t knew or didn’t went there. „You know Rose Weasley has been telling the whole school that he is gonna be your husband and the next Lord Potter“ exclaimed a laughing Draco. „As if i would ever marry him, i rather marry Snape“ giggled Rose, hooking her arms with Draco and Daphne.
Soon the trio arrived at theyre first destination, a tailor. Walking in a elderly looking woman came to them „Mister Malfoy and miss Greengrass what can i do for you?“ „Our friend needs a complet new wardrobe, no budget limits“ explained a smilling Daphne.
„Take a seat and you dear come with me“ with that the woman grabbed Rose and dragged her to a platform. She waved her wand leaving Rose in just her undergarments, making her skin flush bright red. „Let’s see, I would go with dark green, navi blue and a dark lilac as main colours and pastel green and blue. With black and white“ said the seamstress.
After trying on dozens of clothings, the three left the shop with a new wardrobe for Rose. „I‘m exhausted, how about weg et our nails done“ asked Draco besides the girls. Shaking there heads in agrement the went into a nailsalon.
Rose got green, Daphne pink and Draco after convincing him black nails. The three talked about school and other things. After a while Draco asked „where are you gonna stay during the breaks Rose“. „Don’t now, normaly i stayed with some muggles, i have these nightmares about them. I think they abused and starved me, I’m not gonna go back there.“ Rose whispert.
„Youre gonna stay with me, my mother is dying to meet you and my father already likes you and they haven’t even meet you. Besides the other 4 idiots always stay for a week over the break. And i won’t accept a no Rose, the decicion is final“ said Draco. Rose just nodded her head. Maybe the summer won’t be so treadfull.
„What is if Dumbledore tries to stopp you“ asked Draphne. „Daphn when a child doesn’t have a magical gouardian you only need the approval oft he school board, besides Dubledore is only the headmaster he has no say in what students do over the break“ explained Draco „the only thing is that death eater and the dark lord are staying with us. It that ok with you Rose?“
„I don’t mind, do you think I could talk with the dark lord. There is something he needs to know“ said Rose calmly. „I can ask“ replied draco. After having lunch and later an afternoon tea they made there way back to the castle.
