Shopping Has Nothing To Do With It... ((Drew))

[Ginny Weasley]

Ginny Weasley strolled down the cobbled little street that led from Hogwarts to Hogsmead. It was almost noon and the sun was beginning to shine through the trees in the distance. It was a crisp morning and the sweet aroma of pumpkin pasties and butterbeer filled the air, teasing Ginny's senses. It was a beautiful morning for a shopping, which is exactly why Ginny had chosen today to visit Hogsmead and buy some things she needed for her classes.

Ginny's long auburn hair was pulled back in a simple yet delicate bun and she wore no make up. She was wearing her favorite pair of jeans and fitting blue tee. She wore her long black Hogwarts robes to shield her from the morning cold, though she wouldn't need them for long as the sun was getting even higher in the sky.

The wind began to pick up a bit and Ginny was really starting to get cold, so she decided to go to The Three Broomsticks to warm up. When she opened the door and stepped inside, it took a few seconds before her eyes were accustomed to the dim lighting. Once they were, she shed her cloak and hung it on the rack by the door. She then headed to a table near the back and ordered a butterbeer from Madame Rosemerta as she came by.

Running a hand through is short brown hair, Drew sighed checking his watch as he sat at a table towards the back of the Three Broomsticks. He knew that he should be on his way- he had errands he needed to run and some other more important items of business to attend to. Of course, that did not stop him from raising his hand to signal he'd like another butterbeer from Madam Rosemerta. He was not in the mood for business today.

A cool breeze blew through as someone opened the door- the sun beaming in behind them- casting an angelic appearance over the young lady who entered. As she closed the door behind her, he realized he recognized her. 'The Weasley girl?' he thought. Though she'd been several years behind him in school, she'd caught his eye. She was spunky. Like most of her brothers. Maybe even more than her brothers. His eyes never left her as she made her way to a table that was close to his and ordered a butterbeer. Rosemerta brought their drinks at the same time; and Drew waited a moment before standing.

Slowly, Drew walked over to where Ginny sat, "Ginny Weasley... Right?"

(( OMG, I'm SOO sorry I took so long to reply to this. ))

Ginny tapped what was left of her half bitten nails on the table while she waited, closing her eyes and giving a little sigh. Life at Hogwarts wasn't a simple as it used to be, since she was taking a full class load and trying to help Harry with the DA. She hadn't gotten a full nights sleep in weeks and she had barely had time to get out and buy her school supplies today. This was the first time she had really relaxed since her arrival at Hogwarts, and it was nice. Ginny smiled at Madame Rosmerta and nodded in thanks her when she set her butterbeer down on the table. She had barely raised the bottle to her lips, however, when a man she didn't recognize came up to her table and spoke to her. She set the bottle down without taking a drink and looked at him suspiciously. "Yes," she said, looking him over slowly. He was much older than herself, and very good looking, but she was almost positive she didn't know him. "Do I know you," she asked, her suspicion showing in her tone. She couldn't help it though, she had been suspicious of everyone and everything since she had returned from her journey with Harry, Ron, and Hermione.
