Who: Angelina Johnson and OPEN
What: Buying things she doesn't need after picking up a dress.
When: Thursday Afternoon
Where: Quality Quidditch Supplies
Rating: E
Status: Open/In Progress

One ball, three dates, and only two she actually wanted to go with. Going with both George and Alicia would be ideal, but Palmer seemed to think they should go as well. That was probably Angelina's own fault, because she couldn't keep her own mouth shut. She really, really wanted to hit her future husband. She was torn, no idea what to do. She didn't want to back away from Palmer's challenge, but she didn't want to ditch her friends. Why was she so competitive? Sometimes, she really was her own wost enemy.

After spending hours inside Dulce Fleur, she left the shop with a dress she was pleased with. She was heading down the streets, when she walked past Quality Quidditch Supplies, and automatically slowed her step as she walked past. She came to a halt, staring at the bag in her hands. The dress was expensive, but she could still afford to browse her favorite store, and maybe even buy something if she liked it.

A small grin on her face, Angelina back tracked, and headed right to the door, swinging it open and stepping inside. Even if she enjoyed fashion, she would always feel more at home here than at any dress shop. Her eyes immediately swept the room, checking to see who was working, or if she knew anyone else in the shop.

"They're really not that expensive, and actually much better than some of the equipment the professional teams are wearing these days," Owen said with a small shrug, shifting his weight a little as he leaned against the counter. He was an experienced salesman, he'd put the ideas in her head, now he just had to let her go wander around and stumble across something on her own. It was especially easy with Angelina, since she always seemed to be buying loads more than she needed.

While Owen did feel slightly guilty that they took so much of her paycheck, he was working on commission, and every knut he got helped with the rent and with Ellie. One day he wouldn't have to worry about pushing people so hard--in his own, very quiet and unobtrusive way--and he'd been living the good life. But for now, he had to take everything he could get.

She looked up from the selection of the gloves, a grin on her face. "I'm sure you know this already Owen. You don't need to talk me into buying these things. Put them in front of me and I'll buy it." she wouldn't be surprised if people felt relieved when she walked it. Angelina was an easy person to sell Quidditch supplies to, period.

She had heard about Owens daughter, and honestly, she had no problem pumping money into the store. Besides, lots of girls had a shopping problem. Her problem just happened to be with Quidditch anything. Picking up a pair of the gloves in her size, in the same red colour as the Bats, she walked back to the counter, and grabbed a thing of polish. "Ring me through."
