I walked into my favorite store in Diagon Alley and breathed in the fresh smell of brand new parchment. A obvious sign that they'd gotten in a new book order. I walked over to the new books section and started to browse through the shelves.

Gemma walked into the book store some as she was walking around Diagon Alley again. She left a note for her parents when they got onto the boat again but she well mostly bet them there again. As she walked into the store she smiled some as she walked around looking at the books.

I was searching through the shelves and I felt someone bump into me. I turned around a smiled at the girl. She looked familiar. "Hi, I'm Hermione Granger." I said extending my hand. "Do you go to Hogwarts? I feel like I know you."

Gemma looked at the person that she bumped, She then said "HI I am Gemma Harrington and I am so sorry for bumping into you." As she smiled at her while she shook her hand. She then said "Yes I do I am in the fifth and in Hufflepuff." Gemma today is wearing a skirt and a tank top with sandals on so she was her normal height of 5 foot 2.

"It's fine." I replied. "I don't mind. I'm a Gryffindor. Oh, are you friends with Cedric Diggory by any chance." I looked down. It was wierd that a Gryffindor as low on the status pole like myself would talk of the great and popular Cedric Diggory, but he wasn't that popular anymore. At least after what happened in the graveyard last June. I couldn't pluck up the courage to ask him if he was okay, so I figured I'd ask a fellow Hufflepuff.

Gemma looked at her before saying "Cedric Diggory no not really. I usually don't talk to him much even though I don't believe what everyone says about what the Daily Prophet says." As she shrugged her shoulders some. Even though she really don't talk to Cedric Diggory at all since he is a lot older then she is but she really doesn't know him.

"Oh, thanks." I replied finally able to look up. "I was just wondering if he was okay. He's becoming better friends with Harry but to be honest I'm a little afraid to talk to him. He's quite intelligent and intimidating."

Gemma nodded her head as she said "Sorry if I can't be more of any help. But when I am at school I usually just keep to my self. Unless I am with my friends." AS she smiled some.

"I see. Who do you hang around with?" I asked curious if I knew any of them. It couldn't be Scott, Peter, Ed, Hannah, or Susan because they hang around with Cedric. But maybe she was friends with Megan or Claire.

Gemma looked at her "Well I basically hang out with Megan or Claire or basically whoever is friendly." As she smiled some. Gemma then moved some of her brown hair behind her ear. Gemma then looked at the book shelfs next to her.

"Looking for something in particular." I asked. "I pretty much know this store like the back of my hand." I started to skim over the shelveswith my index finger for the book I was looking for, awaiting her answer as she looked over the shelves.

"Not really. Just seeing if any of the new books are interesting." As she shrugged her shoulders some. As she looked at the books again.

I found the books I wanted and started to pull them off the shelves and pile them in my arms. "Well I'll be seeing you at school and maybe around." I smiled at her and tried to carry all the books to the cashregister.

Gemma nodded some. She then found an interesting book about Potions. She then stared at HErmione as she asked her "Hermione do you need some help?" As she walked over to her.

"I'm actually good." I tried to smile over the top of the book stack. "But thanks so much." I finished my walk and placed my books down then dug through my bag to find my money.
