A candy run (open)

[Siren Faye Krum]

Siren had been craving candy all day. She went over to Hogsmeade and heard there was a candy shop called Honeydukes. Her dad had been there before but every bot any thing. She walked in and looked around she wasn't sure what to get. "Hmm what am I in the mood for?" She said in Bulgarian. She looked around but couldn't decide on what to buy. "Boy there are so many chooses and I'm not sure what to get. I might want to get mama and papa some thing." She continued in Bulgarian.

She knew that her dad liked cauldron cakes and that her mom liked jelly slugs so she decided to get them some and send them home. She saw a bertie bott's every flavour beans, she did really like them and figured she would get some. Siren wanted to get more and looked around. She walked around and looked for some other things to get. There were so many kinds of candy. She saw pink coconut ice, she did really like coconut, and also she saw toothflossing stringmints so she figured she would get them too.

She then looked around not many people were in the shop. Siren though that the candy store would be busy, but it must be a slow day. She was worried that some one who knew who she was and would love to get close to her for her fame would show up. So far most people ignored her. She kind of like it.

Alexa had been in need of some parchment for a few days, so as Saturday arrived, she decided to take a walk down to Hogsmeade to grab some while she had the chance. She found what she was looking for quickly and found that she had some time on her hands, before she wanted to return to the castle. So, she walked down the main street of the town and found a large candy store called Honeydukes, she had heard of it many a time, but had never actually visited the shop. She pushed the door open and walked inside. Wandering through the aisles of candies, she picked up a couple of cases of chocolate frogs, sugar quills, pumpkin pasties and one box of licorice. As she stood up from where she had picked up a box she had knocked off of the shelf she saw a pair of dark eyes staring at her. She smiled and said, Hello there, I'm Alexa. Pleased to meet you, she pushed the box back on the shelf where she wouldn't accidentally knock it over again she turned directly to the girl. Are you a student at Hogwarts? She asked as she looked the girl up and down. There was something very familiar about the girl, but she had no idea what it was and she was very sure that she had never met the girl before. She put a hand on her hip and rested the shopping basket on her floor. What's your name, if you don't mind me asking. She said kindly.

Siren jumped a bit when a girl knocked a box over, and she made eye contact. When the girl interduest her self, then asked if she went to Hogwarts, then asked her name she knew she had to tell her. "My name is Siren or Si for short. And yes I do I'm a transfer student."She told her in a thick Bulgarian accent. "It's nice to meat you Alexa." She said. Siren hoped thing would go well with this girl. Is wouldn't get annoyed if she was asked for a autograph, Siren gave them out ever now and then. She was more worried about the press knowing she was here. She was more worried about Rita Skeeter then any one or some one who would be worrs then her.

Siren looked at the girl named Alexa. "What house are you in?" She asked. She didn't know many people and didn't know the house colors really well, nor did she pay attention to what others wear. She then looked around again making sure no reporters showed up. Being out in public always worried her. In Hogwarts she was safe as no reporter was allowed on campus no matter what unless given permission first. Siren went and got what she wanted to buy. She went over to the counter to buy her candy. Siren had gotten ten things of cauldron cakes, ten things of jelly slugs, ten things of bertie bott's every flavour beans, ten things of coconut ice, and ten things of toothflossing stringmints and got ready to pay for them.

Alexa smiled and looked at a couple of other candies, but decided not to buy anything more. It's nice to meet you as well Siren. She smiled happily, glad to have made a new friend. Alexa wondered why the girl kept on shooting furtive looks around the shop as if waiting for somebody to jump out and say BOO!. Of course, nobody did because the shop was completely empty now except for the shop owner and the two girls. That's cool, where'd you transfer from? She asked, completely oblivious to the strong accent Siren spoke in. Alexa continued to watch Siren look around the store repeatedly and started to wonder if maybe the girl had some sort of twitch or a sore neck. She did her best to ignore it and looked away, instead staring at the ingredients list on a box or sparkly candies that had a name in a different language. Thankfully there were lists of the ingredients in four other languages. Although she had to squint slightly at the minuscule words, it distracted her from the girl's odd behavior which was good. I'm a Hufflepuff, she said happily and carried her basket of goodies to the counter, standing behind Siren as she waited for the old lady to check out the items. So, how old are you? She asked curiously and said, I'm sixteen myself and definitely enjoying being back at Hogwarts for my sixth year she said cheerily.

"I transferred from Durmstrang. I'm in Gryffindor and I'm a fourth year." She told Alexa. "I like Hogwarts so far. It's a lot warmer then Durmstrang and a lot bigger. I was given a map to keep from getting lost." She told her. She went and payed for her candy and looked at every thing easel. "Do they make all this them selves? She asked. All most all the candy she felt might be hand made. She then put her candy in a bag to make it easier to carry. Siren could not wait to start eating her candy, but she had to send her mom and dad their candy first. Knowing her dad he was working again, but he is a pro quidditch player so it's not that surprising. Knowing her mom she would take her time eating the jelly slugs, her mom might ask her to get her some more if she could. Both Siren and Cedric always had a large amount of money on them just in case. Ced always had a lot of candy on him and he made it last all year so he only spent his money on things for school. Siren hoped that she would have enuf ink to last all year. She always had different colored ink for every class and they were labeled so she wouldn't get them mixed up. She used her color changing ink to send letters home or to her friends, so it lasted.

Alexa nodded and said, well I'm please to meet you. I've never met anybody from Durmstrang before, but I've heard a lot about the school. Her cheeks turned pink when she asked her next question, is it true that they focus a lot more on the Dark Arts? She shuffled her feet and looked down at her hands. She didn't normally ask questions like that, so she hoped it wouldn't get her a curse directed at her back at a random moment. Alexa didn't really socialize as much as she could have, but she hoped that this year would be different. She smiled as Siren stepped aside and Alexa watched the girl gaze longingly at the content of her basket. Are you saving that for later? She asked jokingly and realized it was a stupid question that would probably be taken in the wrong way. I mean, I..uh..I'm not asking for some, she laughed nervously and lifted the basket up, nearly hitting the old woman in the face with the corner of the basket. Sorry mam, I didn't mean to do that. She shoved her hands in her pockets and stared at the floor, her cheeks now blazing red with embarrassment. She closed her eyes and took three deep breaths, trying to keep the tears at bay. Alexa hated crying in front of people and it always seemed that that was exactly what she did every time she was around someone. Luck of the Puff, she mumbled darkly and she waited for the old lady to finish checking out the items. Then, Alexa quickly grabbed the basket and tried to shuffle past Siren, when the girl asked a question about the candy. She started to say she didn't know, but had to clear her throat. She refused to raise her head, instead continuing to stare at the floor as if the pattern interested her. I..I don't think so, you'd have to ask her. She pointed her thumb behind her at the woman and once again tried to side step Siren, but she clumsily tripped on the tip of Siren's shoe and she stumbled forward, dropping the basket of goodies which splayed across the floor and reached out her hands to try to and catch herself.

"Yes we do. We learn every bit about the Dark Arts. We even learn the unforgivable curses. I my self would only uses them as a last resort." She told Alex. Siren smiled when Alexa ask if he was saving the candy for later. "Two of theses are going to my mother and father. But knowing my father he is off in another country working. He works and trains a lot." She explained. Siren cot Alexa up she was starting to fall, she then waved her wand and all of Alexa's candy was lifted up and put back in the bag. She then gave Alexa her candy back and patted her back. "Don't worry about stepping on my foot, I really don't mind. I hope your ok and don't for get that Hufflepuff had some really grate witches and wizards. Cedric Diggory for instants. My father said that he was a grate guy and was a grate example on how good Hufflepuff is. And wasn't it your house that also help fight and defend Hogwards?" She said. Siren smiled at Alexa. "Things could always be a lot worrs you know." Siren told her. "I mean you could have to go throe and deal with what me and my brother have been going throe. I mean your really lucky in my opinion." She told her. "I mean back home the press won't leave us alone and we have times we can't really do any thing with out it ending up in the papers." She said. Siren after realizing she had said way to much slapped her hand over her mouth and got pale.
