─── Y/N POV ───
The sound of Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes hit me the moment I stepped through the door. Laughter echoed through the shop, combining with the sharp pops of spells and the occasional shriek of surprise. The air smelled of sugar and something faintly explosive, like fireworks.
Standing at the top floor of the shop, Fred Weasley's voice shouted above it all, "Step up! Step up!"
"We've got Fainting Fancy,Nosebleed Nougats, and just in time for school....Puking Pasties!" George yelled.
I chuckled lightly, shaking my head as I turned away from the commotion. Instantly, my gaze landed on a vibrant pink display that read: WonderWitch Love Potions. I stepped closer, picking up one of the glittery pink bottles. The liquid inside swirled and shimmered, giving off a sweet, intoxicating scent.
"Hermione, Ginny! Come check this out!" I said, waving them over to my location.
"What's this?" Hermione asked, picking a bottle up herself.
"Some sort of love potion," I explained, offering her another bottle. Ginny grabbed one, too, her eyes narrowing with interest.
Suddenly, an arm slung over my shoulder, and I turned to see Fred grinning down at us. "Hello, ladies!"
Ginny, staring at the bottles, frowned slightly. "Do these really work?"
"Yes, they do! Then again, the way we hear it sis, you're doing just fine on your own." George said and chuckled.
"What?" She asked, her cheeks turning a light shade of red.
"Are you not currently dating Dean Thomas?" Fred asked.
Ginny's flush deepened as she crossed her arms. "That is none of your business."
Before the twins could tease her more, I felt a gaze on me. I turned and spotted a tall, dirty-blond boy standing across the shop, biting his lip while watching Hermione and I.
"Hey, Mione?" I whispered, nudging her elbow.
"What?" she asked, looking up from her potion bottle.
"Over there." I tilted my head toward the boy.
Hermione's eyes followed my gaze. The moment she spotted him, her cheeks turned pink, and she immediately turned back to me.
