*George's POV*
It was later that afternoon that Freya returned, her eyes were blood shot and bags had formed on top of her cheekbones.
"Freya..."
She looked up at me, smiling slightly as she placed two bags on the ground, I grabbed her and held her tightly, I had no idea where she had gone to, I was a complete wreck. "I'm sorry, took a bit longer than I expected."
"There's no need to be sorry, I understand," I whispered as I stroked her cheeks. "Where did you go? I was getting worried, you don't know this area the best yet."
"I was with Hermione...she took me back to my apartment and she helped me pack everything up that was left behind," Freya explained, motioning to the bags at her feet.
I kissed the top of her head and nodded, "I could've taken you back dear, I'm sorry we missed things the first trip back. I'm just glad you're alright. Is there anything I can do for you?" Freya shook her head and pressed herself closer.
"Just...stay here?"
I chuckled, "always. But...I do need to get downstairs and start setting up the shop."
"Can I help?" Freya whispered.
"You can sit on the counter if you want," I smiled. Freya nodded before following me downstairs, she jumped onto the counter and watched me expectantly as I began filling the shelves completely and arranging a few shelves for more products. Fred had made it so that music could play throughout the shop and Freya was in charge of what would play, today it was a mixture of violin and dance.
"Can I go and get us food?" Freya offered.
I shrugged, "I could eat, I'll send something over to the Leaky Cauldron if you'd like to go pick it up."
Freya nodded before heading to the back room to find Fred.
*Freya's POV*
Many people were walking about the street of Diagon Alley, I looked in every store front, trying to see if there was anything interesting. Coal was sitting on my shoulder as we walked through the street, I noticed a building that seemed deserted and boarded up. But it wasn't damaged in anyway, Fred and George had told me about what happened around here after the Ministry fell—it didn't surprise me to see a shop like this. But it looked as if it had never been used, even before everything that happened.
"What do you think, Coal?" I whispered to the kitten, he gave a soft meow before tipping off my shoulder and into my arms. I smiled before I walked down the slightly busy street towards the Leaky Cauldron to pick up the twin's dinner. I walked into the dark room, towards the counter where I asked for the order, which consisted of three large containers and three bags of various foods, situating it in my arms along with Coal before heading off. Figures the first time I forget my wand the twins decide to get a lot of food.
I opened the door to leave and in a flash I was on the ground along with all of the food and Coal who was trying to hiss as he jumped into my lap.
"Oi, watch it now!" a deep voice growled at me.
"I'm so sorry! Are you alright?" I asked as I picked up Coal from the ground and all of the food, I paused slightly when I noticed how brilliantly blonde his hair was.
"I'm fine, just watch where you're going next time," he growled. He had beautiful grey eyes that made my knees weak and my breathing hitch slightly, I had to shake my head to stop from staring.
