Zelda and Florence finally arrived at the twins flat at around 8:30 am. Ollivander's didn't open until 9:15, so Flo had some time before she needed to be there to set up. "George, Fred! Your favorite employee and her amazing roommate are here for pastries!" Zelda yelled as they made their way into the kitchen. "Favorite? You're lucky Verity isn't here yet." Fred said, walking in behind them. "Ah, so you're admitting it?" He rolled his eyes at Zel. "Morning, Fred. Is George here? I need his help." Florence asked the older twin. "What am I, chopped liver?" He feigned offense and put his hand over his heart. "Yeah, he's downstairs setting up. Want some coffee before you abandon us? Can you bring George his, too?" She smiled at Fred, who was already pouring her cup. "Two sugars and French vanilla cream, per usual?" "You know me too well, Weasley." she said, gladly accepting the paper cups for her and George and making her way downstairs. 

"Fred? Can you help me with this display? I can't decide if we should put the nosebleed nougats or the snack boxes in fro- oh, morning, Florence! Ah- thank you!" George addressed as she handed him his coffee. "Morning, Georgie. And I think you should put the nougats in front." She said, helping him rearrange the items on the table. "To what do I owe this pleasure, Flor?" he asked, still moving things around. "I need your help, George." she said, sitting on top of the counter. "Boy or girl?" he asked, un phased.  "Wha- how? Never mind. girl." she said, sipping her drink. "Last night, Zelda forced me to go to this party, and a girl I was seeing at Hogwarts was there. She said she wants to get tea or drinks some time." Flo explained. He paused, looking over at Florence. "Well, normally you're a little more confident with this stuff. I want to take a wild guess and say you're here because the girl you're telling me about just so happens to be my baby sis." He said, causing her to go red. "I mean- I never- hmph, yeah. It's Ginny. You caught me." she said, holding her arms up in surrender. "But George I'm so confused! I mean you saw the way she treated me at Hogwarts! I didn't do shit to her and she and Ron and Harry and Hermione all seemed to hate me, and now all of a sudden she wants to get drinks with me?" Florence told him. "Listen, Flor. I have no clue why Ginny hated- er, didn't like you in school, but, I know that you both have changed tremendously since. You should give it a chance. I mean, you wouldn't be here if you didn't want to go." he said, patting her shoulder. "You're right. Thanks, George. Shit, it's 9:00, I've gotta go. Tell Fred and Zel I said bye! See you later." She quickly hugged George and rushed out the front door to work.

At 11:54, Florence started packing up her stuff to leave work. She offered to help Mr. O all day, but he refused and said something about her needing a social life, whatever that meant. She didn't know what to do with the rest of her day, so she decided to stop by the shop to see if they needed any help. She needed to work or do something, otherwise she would go out of her mind with boredom. She got in the shop, and George asked her to help him with something in the back. "Really? You're asking for my help? I never thought you would let me-" "I'm not. I did you a favor. My dear sister Ginevra is in town for the next 4 days. You're going to go meet her at the Leaky Cauldron right now." He said grabbing boxes. "Right now?" she asked, panicking. "George if I knew I was going on a date I would have worn a better outfit to work!" she said. "Relax, Flo. She's not getting there until 12:30, you have... about 23 minutes to get ready." "Have I ever told you I love you, George?" She said hugging her friend. "No, but now I can use it against you." He smiled as Florence popped into her flat to change. She threw on a black turtleneck under her white sundress, and a pair of slightly heeled knee boots. "Okay, you've got this. You are Florence fucking Abbott. You graduated at the top of your class at Hogwarts and survived a fucking war. You can get through this date."

a/n~ hey!! sorry for the short chapter, but I've been busy. I can't wait for the next chapter omg. if you guys came here from TTG, you probably saw my notice about writers block. please comment ideas for the story!! I want the next chapter to have something to do with them all going swimming :))

also, do you guys like the form this is written in, or would you prefer having spaces between every time someone talks? which is easier to read.

for example:

She threw on a black turtleneck under her white sundress, and a pair of slightly heeled knee boots. 

"Okay, you've got this. You are Florence fucking Abbott. You graduated at the top of your class at Hogwarts and survived a fucking war. You can get through this date."

~ or like how it is written in the chapter?

with love and quidditch,
