Mariza could hardly believe her eyes, the shop was full of all the chocolate she could ever dream of.
She jiggled the money in her purse, should she be sensible or share or just buy everything you could afford but she knew that her mother would find out.
She moved up to the counter with a packet of special mint chocolates. She had taken almost half an hour choosing but she was feeling fine with her choice.
"1 galleon sweetie," said the worker who gave her a cheerful smile. Mariza gave her the money and went to the nearest table.
She opened the packet and took one sweet, she bit the corner and looked around 'Catalina's Cubby'.

Emma said goodbye to Nick Goodford, and walked up to the till, Bertie Bots Every Flavour Beans, Shacklen Spicey Snacks, Fergies Flavoured Flies and a bar of Minty Magic in her hand. After paying, she glanced around, looking for someone she knew.
She saw that girl, from the Hogwarts Express, and walked over to the table.
"Hello, Mariza? Erm..may i sit here please?" Emma asked the girl. She was still holding her food, and the weight was rather tiring. Swishing her long dark hair away from her eyes, she accidently blew it into Mariza's face, clouding her view with black locks.
"Oh no! I'm so sorry! Are you ok?" She gasped.

Gerek walked into the store. He quickly noticed his two friends from the Hogwarts Express. Emma was talking very fast and loud to Mariza as if Emma just had messed up or did something bad. Gerek was on his way toward the table when he spotted someones bag of money sitting on the ground. He quickly picked it up in a casually way.
Gerek walked over to the table Mariza and Emma were at. "Hey" he said. "Mind if I take a seat?"

Mariza looked at Gerek, finally figuring out she knew him replied.
"Of course, you can!" She pointed at the seat next to herself, he sat down. Mariza wondered if he thought she was that stupid that she didn't notice that he had taken the bag of money from the floor.
"So, how are you both?"
Emma looked at Gerek with a smile and said
"Still a bit sticky from the ice cream, actually!"

Oh Ya! Sorry about that. Gerek let out a short laugh. "Well my hair was very hard to clean." he said laughing. He shook his head dramatically making it look as if it was in slow-motion. "What you two been up to?" he said smiling.

"nothing much," Emma replied. "I just noticed how different our appetites are though..." She gestured towards her own pile of snacks and Mariza's small packet, and chuckled softly. "How about you?" Emma gazed into his eyes, smiling all the while.

"I don't have any money." he said concealing the bag of money. He smiled.
"Hey can I have one of those Birty Botts Beans?" he asked Emma. He looked chanced a glance at Mariza. Most of the time he talked to her he blushed or laughed. He was also worried that she might have seen him take the money.

Emma popped one of the beans into her mouth, smiled as she got rasberry and then offered the bag to Gerek.

Gerek happily took the bag. He stuck his hand in praying for a good flavor. He took one out and slowly raised it to his mouth.
Ugh! "Grass!" He said spitting as he said it. "Thanks!" He said sarcastically. He laughed and then offered the bag to Maize.

(Mariza, Gerek!!!!!)
Mariza picked a bean out of the bag and swallowed it quickly. A taste of complete repulsion rushed down her throat.
"Great.....mould," she gasped with a shiver.
"Just my luck!" she told them.
As the taste of mould left her mouth, she looked back at Gerek. Mariza wasn't pleased that Gerek was lying.
She moved over and whispered close to his ear,
"I saw you pick up that bag of money, I'm not stupid! And don't deny that you did!" she proclaimed.

Emma was feeling slightly left out. Were they whispering about her? Why would they do that? Upset, she strained her ears to hear their conversation. All she heard were the words- "Don't tell." What did THAT mean? Emma sat in her corner, taking another bertie's bean and sitting quietly as the other two whispered.

Mariza completely forgot that Emma was there, for all Mariza knew, she could have been sitting at another table. She was furious at Gerek, why was he being such an idiot?!
"Gerek, why shouldn't I tell? Give me a reason!" she threatened, keeping her voice down. She was surprised at how strong and confident her voice sounded.

"Because I'm putting it back right now." he said. Mariza and Emma were one of the only friends he had. He didn't want to lose either of them.
He snook back to the table he had stole from he faked dropping his wand. As he bent down to pick it up he put the bag of coins back in its original spot. He walked back to the table and sat down.
Sorry. He said. I know I shouldn't have done that.
"You forgive me?"

Emma was still sittin there, feeling alone when Gerek rose from his seat and clearly placed a bag of something onto the table nearby.
"What was that?" Emma asked with a curious frown. She didn't like the way Mariza and Gerek had left her out, and it seemed the bag was that cause.
"Gerek, what was in the bag?" She smiled at Gerek, hoping he would confide in her and not just Mariza.

Gerek froze. He didn't think Emma had seen him. Um... he said embarrassed. He wanted to tell her but then thought she would probably get mad at him. "It was a bag of Beans." He said. "It was bad enough that Mariza had seen. If she asked again he would probably tell.

Mariza was still angry at him, he could have put it back but to him this wasn't an option she guessed.
Mariza thought for a while and said,
"Great, can I have one Gerek?" she said hoping he would give up.

Gerek suddenly lost his breathe. He was about to lose both his friends. "Sure!" he bent under the table as if to get them. "Accio Bertie Botts Beans!" he whispered. Suddenly a small bag flew out of one the students pocket. Gerek smiled and straightened up on the seat. "Here." he said and tossed her the bag.
That had been very close.

Mariza smiled at Gerek quick-witted mind but was still angry. He had now just stolen someone else's bertie botts but they didn't really seem to mind. They actually found it quite funny that they're bertie botts had just disappeared.
Mariza put her hand in a took one out and threw it into her mouth.
"Great, finally a nice one. Grape."

Gerek smiled. He had got away with it this time but he needed to be more careful. Gerek also stuck his hand into the bag. He took one out and popped it into his mouth. Oh! "Thats good!" he said. "Penut butter and jelly".
