Eurielle walked down the cobblestone path of Diagon Alley, allowing herself to soak up the Summer sun with a small smile. She had decided to drop by the new joke shop, the twins weren't expecting her which was alright.

The Ravenclaw still wasn't sure how she would end things with Fred, she didn't want to but what could she do? It would be over a year until she graduated and she didn't want for them to continue their relationship on the premises of ' They'd wait for each other.' It would be stupid to do so.

Eurielle came to the conclusion she'd discuss it with Fred, maybe even continue being in a relationship until September rolled around. She would just hate for them to be on bad terms for the rest of the summer.

Her words played in her head, recalling the time she had told Fred how she didn't care if they stayed in a romantic relationship, as long as she could still call him a friend- she'd be okay.

Eurielle stood by that.

" OI, ELLIE!" someone yelled.

The curly haired witch whirled around to see a freshly graduated Lee Jordan walking towards her, a large smile on his cocoa brown face. Eurielle smiled, " I'm glad to see you looking as spritely as ever," she said crossing her arms in front of her chest.

Lee sent her a wink, " I don't get a hug from one of my dear friends?" he said.

With a roll of her eyes she hugged him, " What are you doing out and about all by your lonesome?" he asked.

" I'm heading over to the new shop, same as you I believe,"

Lee nodded, " Together then,"

The two meandered their way through the crowd, bumping into witches and wizards as they made their way down the bright colored street. The two stopped in front of a building that bore the name ' Weasley's Wizard Wheezes'. It was painted a burnt orange and the trim on the windows a bright yellow. It had posters on the outside of the store that advertised the twin's products, ' Weather in a Bottle! Perfect to rain on someone's parade!'

Eurielle and Lee shared a look before heading inside.

Their eyes widened at the sight. It was an explosion of all different colors. At the front of the store there were bins and shelves stocked with an assortment of merchandise. Posters and banners hung, but one in particular caught her eye, ' Sirius Black Approved! Coming in August!'

The sign hung over a display shelf that held a cutout of a small innocent looking box that soon burst into four birds attacking a nameless man. Eurielle furrowed her eyebrows when a voice said, " Lee! Ellie!"

The two turned to see George climbing down a narrow spiraling staircase, " You should have owled!" he said cheerfully approaching them, " You've come at our busiest time! We would have wanted to show you two around properly!"

Lee beamed at his friend "  The shop is amazing mate!"

Eurielle nodded her head in agreement, " Where's Fred?" she asked.

The two smirked. " He's in the back, go on then," he said with a wink before turning back to Lee, going off and showing him the various products.

Eurielle moved around children that looked to be between the ages of ten and twelve before going behind the counter and through the door, " Oi Georgie!" said a familiar voice, " I haven't worked out this-,"

She turned to her left to see Fred staring at her wide eyed, a large smile on his face, " Fancy seeing you here, Black,"

Eurielle grinned, " I'm so happy for you, Freddie," she said breathlessly, taking in the large back room, " I knew you and George were capable of this,"
