With her whole head of luscious hair on top of Harry's kind lap, and feet bent and touching the top of the Hogwarts Express bench; she hears the voice of the trolly woman passing by. Right away her and her brother-from-another-mother Ron, leaps up to stand on either side of the sliding doorway both pushing each other playfully to stop running into one another. Ron races his fingers down his pockets to find spare change to grab some sweets, while Alice stands tall laughing at him with her handful of cash she saved from over the summer.
"What do you dears want to get today?" She asks politely.
Ron eagerly replies, "2 packs of chocolate frogs and some Bertie Botts beans please!" Followed by dumping some pounds and change into the hands of the woman.
"There you go lad," she replies handing him the sweets, "and how about you dear?"
"I'll get a cauldron cake.." Alice spoke before getting interrupted by Harry of course.
"Can you get me some pumpkin juice?" He enthusiastically announced.
"No." She sharply responded with her eyes closed, before promptly opening them back up to kindly continue, " and a licorice wand please."
"Here you go dear," the trolly woman finished by handing Alice the goods and asking one last, "will that be all for you all?" Followed by Alice, Ron, and Harry nodding, while Hermione passive aggressively watched the scenery as the train moves by.
"Thanks a lot Alice I would have paid you back." Harry mutters without any real tone of anger.
"Oops," Alice replies laying her head right back down on his lap, but now with licorice between her teeth.
Ron, sitting on the same side of Hermione stared at her while stuffing candy beans down his throat. Hermione takes a moment to glance at him before rolling her eyes and sternly getting up and walking out of the cart.
"Bloody hell what did I do?" Ron questions with his usual defensive tone looking straight at Harry and Alice.
"I don't know Ron, maybe sending her one letter ALL summer? It really looks like you care, great work!" Alice sarcastically replies while looking at the ceiling and biting her licorice wand.
