Past Love (Marauders Era)

Diagon Alley and Chance Encounters.

The next day Hermione woke up feeling wide awake and happy after her great night sleep. After looking at the clock, 7.30AM, she pulled back the covers and climbed out of the bed before walking straight into her bathroom. She turned on the shower and removed her pyjamas before she climbed into the shower and relaxed under the hot water.

When she got out of the shower, feeling clean and refreshed, she wrapped her red fluffy towel around herself and then quickly brushed her teeth before exiting the bathroom and walking towards her wardrobe to find something to wear.

She decided on a pair of blue, ripped jean shorts and a red shirt. She pulled on a pair of black sneakers and then walked into the bathroom to begin hair therapy. She began to brush her untamed curls into a tamed mess and then she put a few dabs of different kinds of anti frizz, fly-aways and leave-in conditioner into her hands and rubbed them into her still wet hair. She turned her head upside down and blow dried her hair before she waved her wand making her hair straighten.

She shrugged her leather jacket on and put a small bag of money in her pocket before zipping it up and also pocketing her wand. Hermione looked herself over in the mirror one last time before she walked out of her dormitory and descended the girls dormitory stairs.

Hermione walked out of the Gryffindor common room and began to walk in the direction of Dumbledore's office. When she got there she saw Ginny and Luna walking towards the office.

"Hey guys! I thought I was early meeting you. It's only eight thirty." Said Hermione.

"Yeah well we were all ready to go so we thought we'd just head to Dumbledore's office and wait." Replied Ginny.

"Well seeing as though we're all here we might as well go now." Said Luna.

"Come on then." Said Hermione as they turned to the entrance of Dumbledore's office and said the password, "Liquorice Wands."

The gargoyles jumped apart and allowed the girls to walk up the stairs. They stopped outside the door and knocked. "Come in." Said Dumbledore from the other side of the door. Hermione opened the door and walked in with Ginny and Luna following behind her.

"Ah. Ladies. I'm guessing you're here to floo to Diagon Alley." Said Dumbledore.

"Yes we are sir." Said Hermione.

"Well, off you go then." He replied smiling at them.

Hermione walked over to the fireplace first and grabbed a hand full of floo powder before she stepped into the fireplace. "The Leaky Cauldron!" Shouted Hermione whilst she threw the powder to the floor and was engulfed in the familiar bright green flames. Once the green flames were gone Hermione found herself stumbling out of the fireplace and was now stood in an old shabby place that happened to be a pub. She looked behind her and watched as Ginny stumbled out of the fireplace followed by Luna.

"Muggle London first?" Asked Hermione.

"Of course." Said Ginny as she grinned at Hermione.

"Lets go then." Said Hermione. "I know this salon/boutique place that we could go to first to get our hair and nails done, we also need to get massages."

"Yes! We also need to get full body waxes." Said Luna.

"Yeah I need to get a full body wax as well." Said Hermione. "We'll get those done first, then the massages, then the rest."

"Yeah that'll be the best idea." Said Ginny.

They all walked for a few minutes until they arrived at this small boutique in the centre of London. Inside there were shelves of sunglasses, scarves, belts, jewelry, and a few tables and chairs for manicures and pedicures, there were also doors to their rooms for massages and waxes. Hermione, Ginny and Luna immediately began to pick out a variety of accessories, and then they asked for an eyebrow wax, a full body wax including the bikini wax, facial treatment, manicures and pedicures and a full body massage for each of them. They were immediately whisked away to a room in the back and had their full body waxes, eyebrow waxes, facial treatment and their massages. After an hour and a half they were taken back into the main room and had their manicures and pedicures.
