Finally, Classes were over. Pyro droped his bag and books onto his bed, He had a ton of homework to do, but he wouldnt worrry about that at the moment. He switched out of his robes and put on some jeans and a shirt. Cassandra had asked him if he wanted to go to hogsmeade with her during class. Needing the break he said yes. After finishing, he exited the common and made his way through the castle.
He reached the front doors, a coach stood waiting for them. Pyro leaned against the doors to the castle, he had arranged to meet cassandra here. As he leaned back he thought how absurd this was. He had never liked students from other houses, not to mention a great number from his own house. And he could barelly stand to hang around muggles. And here he was going to hogsmeade with a Gryffindor muggle. He shut his eyes and waited for her to show up.

Cassandra layed down on her bed for a few moments. She could here the other 3rd years talk about divination that day, but she was more worried about getting dressed.
She quickly rummaged through her trunk and found a pair of brown pants. Soon after that she found, she found a pink princess blouse with flowers on it. She dressed quickly and hurridly put on her make-up. She slipped on her black boots. About to head out of the room, she took one last look in the mirror and adjusted the clip in her hair. She grabbed her black and silver cloak and headed toward the door.
" Where are you going?" one of the girls called after her.
" I have a date," Cass called over her shoulder, and soon she was heading down the stairs to the front of the castle.
She ignored all the people who called her name through the hallways. She looked at her watch, knowing she was running a bit late. She had to be fashionable late. She couldn't let him think that she was to eager to go.
She finally got to the front doors, and walked through them to find a carriage waiting at the end of the walkway. Nice, thought Cassandra to herself.
She turned around and looked at Pyro who was leaning back against the wall waiting for her.
She put the cloak over her shoulders and fastened it. " So, are we ready to go?"

Pyro heard footsteps approaching and knew them to be Cassandras. he opened his eyes and pushed off from the wall and looked at her. he nodded. "yup, just waitin on you." He walked to the coach and opend the door. He turned and looked at her. "ladies first."

Cass looked around. " Ladies, I don't see any ladies. Oh, you must mean me."
She stepped into the carriage rather gracefully. Surprised that she didn't fall.
" So, where are we going? Do you have anywhere in mind? Personally, I need to stop by the robes shop. Do you mind?"

He climbed in after her and sat opposite her. he closed the door and the coach began to move. He looked at her. he was just planing on strolling through hogsmeade, maybe grab a butterbeer or two. So he nodded at her "yea. We can stop at the Robe shop, I really have no point of destination. So we can just walk around and see all of hogsmeade if we have time."

Cass arched her back to stretch a little. " That's wonderful. Your brave enough to go shopping with me. Not really shopping, I just need a couple of uniforms. I've lost too much weigh this semester, and the last I had a run in Kris Grass, my clothing didn't hold up very well."
She thought back fondly to the ripped up skirt, shirt, and sweater she had back in her dorm. She would never forget that night, even if she never became an animagus.
" You know, we need to go to the Three Broomstick as well? I'm not to keen on that coffee at Madam Puddifoots. I've tried it twice, and I didn't like it."
She looked over at Pyro who seemed very stoic on the other side of the coach.
" You know, you really need to loosen up a little. I swear, my house mascot may be a lion but I don't bite. Also, if your worried about being seen out in public with me, were already here, so you can't back out." She smiled warmly at him.
The village of Hogsmeade appeared on either side of the coach. " It's awfully foggy tonight."

He arched an eyebrow at her. "isnt loosing weight a good thing?" He looked out the window and watched the scenary go by. "hey, anywhere you wanna go is fine with me, i was planning on entering the three broomsticks." He grinned at her. "to uptight eh?"
He slouched his shoulder and let every part of his body droop."this loose enough?" he grinned as the coach stoped and he exited the coach and offered her his hand with a grin. "You look like you might need help, dont want you falling now do we?"

Not a good thing if you don't have a lot of money, she thought to herself.
True, she had that huge shopping spree with Dana, but she had saved for weeks to do that. Now, she was in deperate need for some new robes, and she had just enough to by two sets.
" I guess it is a good thing. Let's go get the requirements out of the way before we get on our way," she headed to the robe shop.
" Your actually going to put up with me shopping. I'm so surprised."

He smirked at her. "if you live in my house, youd be surprised at the stuff I can put up with." He helped her off the coach. than pointed down the road. "the robe shop is down this way." he began to walk down the road with her.

" Wow, its colder out tonight than I actually expected," Cass said as they walked into the shop. She went to the man behind the counter and asked for some uniforms for her house. Asking to go by the measurements she used when she went shopping with Dana, she let them due their magic while she and Pyro waited.
" When I lived at home when I was younger, I had to make a lot of my own clothes. I'm pretty handy with a needle and thread, but now I prefer to watch others do it." She watched the witch working in the shop direct a measuring tape and scissors to alter a uniform about her size.
" I really wish I could learn how they do it. I always hoped that I would run into some magical mom to show me that trick."

Pyro sat quiet for a little while, watching the little witch work on the robe. he than turned to cassandra. " Yea. I suppose I was lucky. Kind of a rich family so I had everything bought for me." he watched the witch again. "Hey, if you want to learn why not ask the witch over there to teach ya?"

Cass gave him the eye. But however, the witch overeheard his comment and asked her if she wanted to learn. Absolutely flabergasted, she of course accepted and the two of them made evening for her to come learn. After about twenty more minutes, she left with her robes in hand and headed out the shop.
" Sometimes, your mouth is just too big. Now she will probably think I want be a seamstress for the rest of my life." She gave him a playful nudge.
" Honeydukes is right over there. Wanna look?"

Pyro walked out of the shop grinning. He looked down the end of his nose and tried to catch a glance at his mouth. "It aint that big, is it?" He opend his mouth and shoved his hand in. "Fee, If knoff thff bffg."
He removed his hand and looked over at honeydukes. "honeydukes sounds like a superb idea"

Cass thought about it as they headed into Honeydukes. She didn't want to tell him this, but it was a big deal. She didn't want to become some mediocre, mudblood wizarding seamstress! She wanted to be more than that. When she was dreaming her muggle dreams and knew nothing of the wizarding life, she wanted to become a doctor. It had now passed over to this world. Her main goal was to become a healer. Yes, she loved to design and sew clothing. And many of the things she had in her closet where made with her designs and labor.
She opened the door to Honeydukes. " Ooh, I love it in here. It always smells so....sweet," Cass grabbed a basket and grabbed some Every Flavor Beans, " I love these. That is the one way to my heart. Jelly Beans."
She picked up a package of Chocolate Frogs, " I could never get into these things. My cousin Craig actually got into my chocolate stash at home and found one of these in there. He nearly died when the thing jumped out of the box."
She continued to peruse the store when she spotted something she hadn't seen since she left school. " Ooh," she exclaimed. She grabbed his hand and pulled him over to smaller section of the store. She pointed and bursted out with," Snickers!"

Pyro steped into honeydukes. Sweets had never been his thing. He mostly just followed Cass around as she moved from one candy to another. he was looking at a bag of beans when she suddenly grabed him and pulled him infront of a particular chocolate bar.
"snickers? Whats that?" He picked up the candy and looked at it closer.

Cass laughed into her hand. " You've never heard of Snickers?! Well, they are a bit of a muggle candy. I keep forgetting that some of the things we have you don't have. They are wonderful. They've got nuts, chocolate, and caramel." She grabbed a few off of the rack and threw them in her basket. She went to the counter, paid for her items, and headed to the door. She handed one of the Snicker's bars to Pyro.
" You really need to try one. Once you have one, you'll never be able to stop wanting one." She passed by the Quidditch supply shop and nearly dropped her bag.
" Look at that, isn't that the coolest broom you've ever seen?" she pointed to the new Nimbus in the window.
