Sally stood out in the ally. The day was cold and the sky was over cast, threatening to rain. Sally looked around her, people were every where, hurrying to the next shop they needed to be at. She thought about what she needed and decided to head to Flourish and Blotts. She paused standing out side the window looking in at the store which was full of students buying their book requirements. She quickly thought twice about entering the store and turned on her heel. " I will get my books later," Sally thought to herself as she entered a shop, which for the moment looked alot less crowed. It was called Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes. She began to look around the shop, glad to be inside when she suddenly heard the clap of thunder. People then began to flood the shop, looking for some shelter from the storm. Sally looked amoungst the faces and wondered whether there was anyone she knew.

Oh crap... Crap, crap crap crap crap... Such thoughts were running through the young boys head. he'd lost his way. This was the fourth time he had come to Diagon Ally during the last few weeks. He ran down the Ally, looking for the wallet he had dropped. It contained most of his cards, money and photo's. Despite the fact that there was only three of each of the listing previous. He scrambled through a range of shops that eh had been in that day, for the last time before going home, but hadn't found it. Finally, he reached the second last place that he had been in. Pushing open the shop door of 'Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes' he squeezed through many people, not even noticing the girl his age. The boys light blue jeans were torn on one knee, and his black polo shirt was sort of sweaty since he'd been running.
Dropping to the floor, he slid onto his belly, before grabbing the black wallet under one of the ground shelves. It was safe. Standing back up, hugging his wallet Jethro blushed slightly. Thats when he caught sight of the girl his age...

'This place looks so cool!' Maddy said as she wandered over to the shop, 'Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes'. She had wandered away from her mum so she was susecting that her mum would closely follow her. She saw a familar face amongst the people so ran up to him. On the way she saw things like, Canary creams, A cake that makes the consumer turn into a canary, and an arrangement of fake wands, some of which squirt water, others that sprout a bouquet of flowers. She made her way to this boy and jumped on him yelling 'Boo!'

Sally looking throught the crowd of people noticed a boy about her age. He seemed to be very worried and stressed.
He quickly walked over to a shelf and dropped to the floor.Without the slighest clue of what he was doing, Sally pretended to being looking at something on a shelf opposite the boy. He then stood up clasping something, she then realised it was a wallet. She looked away suddenly when the boy noticed her presence. A girl with blonde hair and a fringe came running in the shop and jumped on the boy yelling 'boo'.
"She must know him" Sally thought "I wish I was more confident around boys"
Feeling a bit more relaxed with the girl there Sally quietly said a hello and managed a small smile

Jethro, his nerves still on end, wasn't quite ready for Maddy's 'hello'. Immediately, he shoved the wallet into his pocket, and jumped around to face her. Blue eyes lit up, the boy's heart rate slowed down as he saw a familiar and kind face. "Maddy!" he said taking a deep breath in, but a grin couldn't help split over his face. "Bloody brilliant time to do that." Jethro said with a wink.
Taking a glance to wards the unknown girl he had just seen, Jet saw how shy she was. Taking a glance to Maddy, he smiled and jerked his head over to wards the girl. "Hi there." he said taking a couple of steps over to the girl, and hoping the Maddy would do the same. After all, theres noting worse than being by yourself in Diagon Ally.

'Haha!' Maddy smiled as a grin broke over Jethro's face. 'Thank God it was you...' Maddy Paused, 'If it wasn't i think i'd die of humiliation.' Maddy took a few steps towards this girl. She looked fairly nice, but also looked as if she could be a tad bossy. Maddy had seen her looking as she had scared Jet but thought that she must've been thinking, 'Hey that girl has confidence!' Replying to her small hello Maddy threw her hand out and said in a joking-around voice, 'The names Maddy. Are you an incoming first year too?

Sally shook Maddy's out strectched hand. It seemed to be warm and wellcoming so she decided to to introduce herself to Maddy and the boy "Hi, My names Sally, nice to meet you,"......"Oh and yes I am an incoming first year" Sally continued remembering Maddy's question
"Ugly whether out there isn't it," Sally added casually

"And if i had been in the room, i would probly die of laughter." Jet smiled before adding to 'Sally. "Jethro Stevens, or Jet if you like. Pleasure." he said in the most charming voice he could manage without splitting into laugher. "Incoming first year aye, that makes three of us then." his grin turned into a soft smile.
Taking a glance out the busy window, Jet then nodded absently and said "Yeah, but its days like this that certain people give you warmth..." snapping his head to the two girls he blushed a fair bit before spitting out "Uh i mean, you need to rug up on these sorts of days." he shot q quick glance around, trying to avoid any suspicious looks. Why was it when he thought about the day he met Summer, that these things slipped?!

Sally tryed to hide her smile, "Had he ment to say that?" she thought to herself. Sally took a look around the shop, fire works, fake wands. "Surely these kinds of things cant be allowed at hogwarts" she thought out loud.
Suddenly Sally remembered her books. The shop might not be as busy now and she really should get them before she forgets. Sally looked towards Jethro and Maddy, not wanted to loose their company she asked " Could you please show me where Florish and Blotts is?" Even though she knew where the shop was, it was the easiest way for Sally to ask them to accompany her.

'Haha! You're still as random as you were when I met you, Jet.' Maddy laughed. She watched Sally as she looked around at all the odd things. 'Hogwarts doesn't need to know you have them!' Maddy said. Even though she thought Sally would never take things into Hogwarts she wasn't allowed, Maddy already had plans to buy lots forbidden items to take to Hogwarts. She better not tell Sally, considering that she doesn't know her well so she may dob on her. 'Sure, just follow me!' Maddy answered to Sally question. Why shouldn't they be helpful and nice. Maddy turned towards the doorway and walked a few steps before turning back and saying, 'You coming?'

Blushing still, his eyes drifted along all the shelves and to all the different sorta of people around. Finally, his sight came back to the two girls, the colour now normal back in his face. "That me." he gave her a wink before giving the two girls a 'thumbs up'. Very lame. Sliding his hands back into his pocket and feeling the leather of his wallet, Jethro then said "Doesn't mean we wont take them in..." his voice now casual again.
"Sure, it'll give me something to do other then run around looking for my wallet all day." he shrugged slightly and set off after Maddy, though stopping suddenly after she did. Flicking his head over a bit, his fringe was now out of his eyes. Glancing back to Sally, he managed a small smile.

Sally, glad that they were going to take her, had not noticed Maddy walk towards the door followed by Jet. They both stoped and looked at her. Jethro smiled and Sally realised she was ment to follow.
Stepping out into the ally, Sally pulled her jumper tighter around her. The wind had picked up since she had been outside.
Closley behind Maddy and Jet, Sally walked. She looked down at her shoe lace which was untied. She paused quickly and bent down to tie it up. Standing back up she saw Jet and Maddy walking along happily.
"I hope I made a good impression"Sally thought to herself. Maddy and Jet seemed like they got along so well and she hoped she could make friends quickly.
"Hey, Maddy, Jethro, wait up,"Sally called running after them.

'Haha, lamo!' Maddy said as he gave them the thumbs up. Maddy had a tendency to laugh at other people. Not a habit she wants to keep, obviously. Maddy thought that Sally must have thought she had made a good impression, as she had a look of content on her face. 'Yeah, come on! Come on! We don't have all day Sally,' Maddy joked. She smiled as she had seen Jet do. Jat and Maddy had become friends really quickly and easy and Maddy hoped Sally would be a thoughtful, nice friend as Maddy knew they would become really good friends.
(FYI- I don't know if content makes sense but ... yeah...'

As Sally caught up to Jet and Maddy she saw the familar shop, Flourish and Blotts, ahead so she quickly opened the door for Maddy and Jet.
"Have you guys got your books yet?" Sally asked wondering whether she had left it too late.
