Chapter 9
Shopping with Harry

*Ginny's POV*
I bought myself a perfect dress. It was a red dress with 3/4 sleeves and a belt in the center.
(A/N- here is the dress, I am horrible at describing a dress.

)

I hope it will keep him busy. I bought a pair of golden heels as well. I paid for everything and went out with my bags.
"Let me help you.", said a voice and I turned around to see Harry.
"What are you doing here?", I asked him.
"Shopping!", he said and showed me his bag.
"What color is it?", he asked.
"I won't tell.", I said.
"So buy me a tie of that color!", he said.
"Fine. I will bring the tie.", I said and he shook his head.
"No. Come with me and select the color.", he said.
"No. I will!", I said.
"Argh!", I have never seen him irritated.
"Fine!", I said and asked him to follow me. We entered the same store from where I bought my dress.

We went to the counter.
"Ah, Miss Weasley. How may I help you, dear?", asked Alia, the helper.
"Alia, call me Ginny and I need to buy a blood red tie for this bloke.", I said.
"Buying a tie that should match your dress?", she asked.
"Yes.", I replied and she nodded.
"Here it is, young man.", she said.
"Thank you, ma'am.", Harry said and took the tie.
"Call me Alia. Have you seen her dress?", she asked.
"This little redhead says I can't.", he said and Alia laughed.
"The dress is worth waiting for.", she said.
"I am not sure about the dress, but my girl is surely worth waiting for.", he said and flashed his charming smile. He called me his girl! I can't help but blush.

He paid for the tie and we walked out.
"Should I drive you?", he asked.
"Nope. I need to buy few more things.", I said.
"Okay!", he said and started walking behind me.
"Where are you coming?", I asked him.
"With you.", he said.
"I cannot buy a present for you in front of you.", I said and he smirked.
"I will wait outside.", he said and I know he will do it, no matter what.
"Fine!", I huffed and he laughed.

Buying gift for him is harder than I thought. I cannot understand what to buy. I bought him a smartphone magnifier and phone tin speaker. I asked the salesman to pack it and he beautifully packed it in white sheet with red ribbon and brown tag, isn't that too Christmas-sy? But it looked beautiful so I don't mind.

I went out with another bag.
"You are currently holding 3 bags, can I help you?", Harry asked.
"Nah, just drive me back to hospital. I walked down here.", I said.
"Your walk is like running for many.", he said. And I asked him to stop again.
"Stop! I need to buy another dress!",  I said.
"Again?", he asked.
"Yeah, just one more.", I said and he rolled his eyes.
"Girls!", he said.
"You can go if you want to. I will walk back, hospital isn't that far.", I said with a genuine smile. I can't make him stand outside.
"What? No way! I stood here for nothing? But this time I will come with you.", he said.
"Nope.", I said, popping the 'P'.
"Why?", he asked.
"I need to buy a swimsuit and so do you.", I said.
"I want to help you in trying those swimsuits. Trust me.", he said with a huge grin and slapped his arm.
"No. You won't.", I said firmly.
"I will buy my swimsuit and you will your.", he said and grabbed my hand before dragging me into the shop.

Alia laughed as she saw us again.
"We are home, Alia.", I said and she laughed harder.
"Welcome back, dears. How may I help you?", she asked.
"Well, I need to buy some more summer clothing.", I said.
"So do I.", Harry added.
"Sir, Jacob here will help you with your cloths and Ginny, follow me, sweetie.", she said and we obeyed.

"What you want to buy, honey?", Alia asked as we reached the summer collection section.
"A sun dress and a swimsuit.", I said and she nodded.
We searched for a while and got me my perfect outfit.
I bought a short black and white sun dress with spaghetti strips and a thin yellow belt. My swimsuit was black bikini. Later, I bought a pair of brown flats
(A/N- Here it goes:

)

I walked to the counter and Harry was missing, thankfully. I paid and added two more bags to my collection. I am looking like a true shopper. I heard Harry coming.
"You came before me?", he asked.
"I just needed few things.", I said.
"2 more bags? Argh, I will carry some or else people will say I am a heartless human who is letting his gir-- I mean friend carry do many bags.", he said and I can't help but smile. I want to be your girlfriend, you idiot! I thought to myself.
"Nope. Just bring the car in front of the shop.", I said.
"You are a lucky girl, Ginny. Not everyone gets a friend like Harry.", Alia said.
"I can't agree more.", I said and saw Harry smiling and blushing.

We went out and Harry brought the car in front of the shop. He helped me place my bags in the back seat.
"Drive me home. It is very late.", I said.
"As you wish.", he said and bowed. I laughed at this.
"Oh, wait!", I said.
"Another dress?", he asked.
"No. My car, it is parked in hospital. I need to get it.", I said.
"Well, you don't need a car tomorrow, as I will pick you up and next, I can ask Draco to get your car parked in front of your house.", he said. 
"You are the best, Harry!", I said.
"I know.", he replied.

He drove me home and we missed our sunset. No regrets, I got a drive.
