So I went into a muggle shop yesterday because growing up in Hogsmeade, I never really got to see how muggles live or anything, and it’s fascinating, I mean, they have to be so creative…they have all these…inventions for every little thing. A wand would do half the things in your house for you. They must really not have a lot of space in their house.
Anyways, I was in a music store filled with these flat, silver, circles called ‘seedees’-like the only music there was the music playing overhead. It should be a called a Seedee store, although I don’t know what the point of it would be, because the seedees weren’t making music-they don’t do anything at all. I even tried prodding some with my wand in the back when no one was looking-nothing happened. I think I broke one :/
But before I left I decided to get some gum at the front cause I was all paranoid they would wonder why I wasn’t buying anything and somehow figure out I’m a witch…idk, I always think everyone is looking at me when I’m in public. So I got out 2 pounds because that seemed like a reasonable amount to pay for gum… (I have no idea of what the pounds-to-galleons exchange rate is, I just keep some muggle money on me at all times for emergencies-my mum insists). Gum isn’t an emergency, I know, but 2 pounds doesn’t seem like a lot, and…not gonna lie, the guy at the front was really cute.
He had brown hair that needed a hair cut, and freckles on the bridge of his nose. Swoon. I know he’s a muggle but…”can’t a girl have a bit of fun?” I was thinking. I probably flirted with my eyes. I don’t know. But we got to talking and he tried to sell me some seedees but it’s like ‘nice try, they’re useless’. He was going on and on about the good music ‘on’ them, whatever that means, and asked me what kind of music I like. ‘The Weird Sisters’ I said. ‘Nice’ he said. ‘I haven’t heard of them, they must be way on the fringe’. ‘You have no idea’ i muttered.
Well, he asked for my number, I’m not really sure what he wanted, but I think he was flirting with me. I told him I didn’t know what he meant and he asked if I was from out of town. He seemed really confused. He said he wanted to call me and I was like ‘but I’m right here…’ He kinda laughed and said I should come by and bring him a seedee of The Weird Sisters then and I told him they didn’t have any that I know of. He seemed sort of upset by that.
It really is too bad I can’t take him to a concert of theirs. But then I’d REALLY have some explaining to do.
