When I got home, Fred was already waiting for me with my dad

"Hi Love" he said kissing me "whatcha got?" He pointed to the suitcase I borrowed from Mrs.Weasley to drag my sweaters here

"Can you and my dad sit down, I need to show you two something"

They were both confused but sat down on the couch and waited

I pulled out all my letters and let them read them
Then I showed them my sweater collection I now have
And I showed them the checks for the money they all sent

"Merlin's beard" my dad said "so many offers I KNEW YOU WOULD GO PRO!!" He yelled "oh I can't wait for Remus to see this, he's with Tonks right now"

"I'm so proud of you!!" Fred picked me up and spun me around "who are you going with?!"

"I don't know honestly, all these teams are so amazing, and I was really good friends with Krum back in my third year so it would be fun to be on Bulgaria, but the magpies are so good and then there is the tornadoes I can't decided"

"Your favorite color is red maybe you should pick Bulgaria" Fred suggested "I knew you'd get scouted last year"

My dad and Fred were so proud they told me they wanted to throw a party for me the day before we left for school

I wrote to both Bill and Charlie, and I asked for their advice on who's team I should be on. I debated writing to Percy, I wanted him to know too but I couldn't decided if it was worth the dismissal he'd give me
I did anyways, I didn't want him to be left out.

Lupin came home later that day, after being away because of the full moon and congratulated me on it too

Everyone was so proud of me, I was proud of myself too.

  "Did I tell you all I made Captain too" I said excitingly

  "What?!" My dad said "this day just keeps getting better"
He squeezed me into a hug

  "How'd you do on your OWLS?" Lupid asked

  "All Os" I smiled brightly

They congratulated me again, today was a beautiful day



I told George later that night when Fred brought me home, and he told me to go with the Catapults

  "They're hard core" is what he said "you'd fit right in but the magpies would be cool too"

  "I don't know what to do with all the money they sent me...I would like to open a bank account for future children to be able to access but I don't need all the money they sent me. Here" I said passing a check to George of 3000 gold galleons "this one is for the shop"

He shoved it back to me "no we don't need any more investments we are actually making really good money and have completely paid off the building, now we're just making straight income" he smiled "put it away you earned it"

I sighed "can you guys help me find a way to put some in your family's account? I tried giving some to your mum but she refused too"

Fred sat beside me "you're so incredible Electra, my mum is prideful she wouldn't ever accept your money but we will find a way if that's what you truly want" he took my hand "what do you want for dinner? We should celebrate, let's go to your favorite Japanese restaurant"

George Fred and myself spent dinner at my favorite restaurant on the alley, we even brought back sake to celebrate together

  "I don't see it as a problem as long as we stay inside" Fred said when I first suggested buying some, I was under age but it was legal if you were home and over the age of 16

The next day, everyone met up at their shop to go buy things for the new school year
The shop was insanely busy, so while Mrs.Weasley and Ginny walked around looking, Ron Harry Hermione and I walked out of the building and started our school shopping

  "Whatever you all need its on me" I told them "I have all those checks I have to put in the bank first and then we can begin"

Hermione and I walked to the bank while Ron and Harry stayed outside, Hermione came with me to be sure that I didn't mess up when opening my own account
Goblins can be hateful towards wizards and won't be much help if I mess up

  "Is there a way I can deposit a check into an account I'm not on?" I asked the goblin escorting us to my own account

He glared at me "no"

Ok fine, I gave Hermione a check to put into her account but she refused it too
I understand why they all refused them, but if this was what they offered me before I became a part of their team, I can only imagine what I'll be getting when I join

We left the bank and began our shopping
I bought Ron and Harry the newest models of brooms, and Hermione all the books she had on her list which was of course more than Harry Ron and mine combined

We returned to the shop, and were about to go in before Harry pointed out Draco and his mother walking around

  "I wonder what they're doing" he said

I rolled my eyes "probably buying school supplies?"

  "Don't you think they look suspicious they're covered in all black, like they don't want to be seen and they want to blend in" Harry started following them

  "Here we go" I said grabbing Hermione and Ron's hands

We followed him to a shop called Borgin and Burkes

  "This shop is known for having curse items" Hermione said "let's stay outside"

Harry went into his bag and pulled out his invisibility cloak "who wants to go in with me"

  "I'll go" I said "I'll keep him out of trouble" I said looking at an annoyed Hermione

We went under the cloak and walked into the shop, we opened the door slowly so it wouldn't make a sound, and found a shelf that we could hide behind
It was close enough to Draco that we could hear his conversation

  "So can you fix it?" He asked

The shop keeper looked nervous
  "I'll try"

Draco got into his face "you will do it don't forget who my family is friends with" as he said that he showed the shop owner something that we couldn't see

  "The dark mark?" Harry asked

  "Do you really think he'd be a death eater while in school?"

"Yes"

I really hope Harry is wrong, Draco isn't a bad guy..well to me he isn't he's always been nice and has even helped me get out of some bad situations

Draco left with his mother, and Borgin cursed him after he left the building

  "Let's go" I said

Harry and I walked out and told Hermione and Ron what we heard
Hermione agreed with me that it probably wasn't the dark mark but Ron was convinced it was with Harry

  "What else would it be?" Ron said "it was his arm wasn't it?"

  "Yeah but in school? Why would he want a Hogwarts student to be a death eater" I said

  "To get details on Dumbledore I bet" Harry said "Voldemort's biggest competition is Dumbledore, with him alive he isn't safe"
