Sometimes they don't have a choice

Diagon Alley (Scarlett's POV)

"Scarlett, we are going to drop you off at Diagon Alley after breakfast!" Mom yelled up the stairs. I got up and got dressed I still couldn't believe they were not going with me, and still bothered by it, I ran downstairs to the breakfast table and ate breakfast.

Once I was done I got up with out a word, they then handed me a sack full of galleons and I walked to the car. I got in the car and did say a thing the whole way there, when we got there mom turned and said, "We will see you at home," I then turned and got out of the car and made my way to the pub that had the entrance to Diagon Alley. When I walked in everyone stopped talking and looked at me.

Then I turned to the pub owner and stated, "I need to get to Diagon Alley." He then asked, "Is there, no one to escort you there my dear?" I answered, "No sir I'm by myself." He then turned to the pub and said, "Would anyone like to escort this young lady to Diagon alley?" A tall man with a purple turban raised his hand and said, "I'll escort Mrs. R-Rid I mean Mrs. Walker to Diagon Alley!"

He then lead me to the back of the pub where there was a brick wall, he then poked at four different bricks and it opened up leading into Diagon Alley. Then he turned to me and said,"T-There y-you g-g-go Mrs." I said thanks and he left leaving me alone.

I then looked at the arc that had once been a wall and stepped through it. After I stepped through I turned around and it had disappeared. I had my supply list in my hand and wasn't looking where I was going and bumped into someone, landing on my butt.

I looked up and saw a really cute guy about my age looking down at me. The guy had white blonde hair and grey eyes, he then after looking down at me for a minute reached down a hand and helped me up, and I took it smiling. Then I said,"Sorry I wasn't looking where I was going, my bad." 

He answered, "No biggie, it's ok I'll survive." Then I laughed at his sarcasm. His parents then walked up behind him his mom said, "Draco, we were so worried when we didn't see you standing next to us, don't scare us like that again!" She then turned to me and smiled and asked, "Sweetie are you lost?"

I responded, "Yes ma'am, I actually am." She then said, "Are you getting your school supplies?" Eying the paper in my hand I nodded and she said, "Great Draco is as well, you could come with us if you'd like?" I nodded again and Draco smiled again. His mom asked, "Can I see your list sweetheart?" Using the term my dad uses when he talks to me. I nodded and gave it to her. She then stated, "Great you are going to Hogwarts as well, Draco will be attending school with you." With that we started walking going down the list and figuring out where to go first.

Our first stop was Madam Malkins Robes for all Occasions. When we walked in we waited for a bit, and then Draco's father yelled, "LADY, DO YOU NOT SEE US STANDING HERE MY SON AND HIS FRIEND ARE WAITING TO GET FITTED FOR THEIR ROBES!" I turned and looked at Draco who gave me an apologetic look and mouthed, "So sorry you had to see that." I nodded. I wasn't quit sure what to do or say but, the lady said,  "Yes sir, sorry sir!"

Draco went first and I started to think how nice this family has been to me. They are willing to help me get my school supplies, even when I accidentally bumped into their son. Yet they are so rude and cruel to others kinda like my parents. I was pulled back to reality when Draco whispered in my ear, "Sorry, but I didn't quit get your name?"

 I answered ,"Scarlett Walker." He then said, "Well Scar, it's your turn." I blushed at the nickname he just gave me, and he saw it and blushed slightly as well. I stood up on the stool and the lady measured me shaking in fear, and I looked at her and mouthed, "I'm so sorry you got yelled at." 

She smiled, nodding slightly and finished measuring me, and stepped back as if to say she was finished. I looked at Draco's father and he nodded, then looked at the lady. She stepped back frightened. He then said, "Exactly when will you be finished with their robes, you filthy witch?" She looked as if she were gonna faint, but said, "In two hours, sir." Draco's father then paid for the both of us to which I tried to object, but he ignored.
