Who: Anastasia Summers and You?
What: First day with her new shop open
Where: Something Creative, Diagon Ally
When: Thursday Afternoon
Rating: G?
Status: Open/In Progress


A grand opening was something she couldn't be bothered with. She could do that, and it would attract a lot of attention no doubt, but by the looks of it, enough people were curious about the new store that was now open in Diagon Ally that they came in on her own. Anastasia's store was clothing and accessories. For both men and women. More unique kinds of styles, and there seemed to be everything you may be looking for packed in to the store. Against every wall and corner there was something else. Pants, shirts, dresses, skirts, hats, jewelry, belts, shoes, purses, bags, etc. There didn't appear to be a set theme, having a variety of styles all through the store. The only thing that was really divided was the mens side, and the womens side. Many of the items she had designed herself, though it was obvious most of the clothes were based on muggle styles, though there was a small section for wizard and with clothing as well.

The store had only been open for a few hours, and things seems to be going well. Many people, more witches that wizards were wondering around the store, and so far sales were going good. If this was a sign of how most days would be, hopefully her store would be a success. The inside of the shop was bright and cheery, and the sun streaked though the squeaky clean windows that she had charmed to keep from letting dust settle on them.

Ana was behind the main counter, completing a sale with a little old witch who was buying a gift for her teenage granddaughter. Waving her off with a smile, Ana sucked a strand of pink-black hair behind her ear- she had ironed it straight today- before turning to walk to the end of the counter, and continue with some paperwork for a new shipment of muggle style skirts, while also keeping an eye on the customers, just in case anyone needed anything.

Ron was surprised. How was it, he ended up with a girl who reminded him of Hermione? Ana was quiet, and seemed wise, beyond her years about some things. He realized he had kind of overwhelmed her, wanting everything to be resolved much quicker than they could be. There was that echo in his head about how he was insensitive. And he watched as she moved behind the counter, putting a barrier between them. He was insensitive, but he played Quidditch and he's first thought was that she felt threatened. He shook himself, internally, and thought he might be over thinking her actions. She did need to be available to customers.

He leaned on the counter, and rubbed at his hair in a nervous gesture, "I'm nervous about this, Ana. I have to admit. And when I'm nervous, I babble a bit."

He chuckled at himself, "I want to know you now, I guess. I want to know you, and then know that its going to work out okay between us. I know that sounds stupid."

She quickly hid a small smile that came to her face, ducking her head slightly to bring some more papers in her direction that needed attention. "I'm nervous as well, Ron. And when that happens, I become quiet." so it looked like there could be a one sided conversation for a while, the thought of which amused her slightly. She didn't want to make this awkward, but she didn't know how to respond to his constant talking, when she seemed to do the exact opposite of him when nervous.

"We won't know if it will work out until we try. Even if it doesn't, what does it matter? We're stuck together." she said with a shrug, keeping her voice light and friendly as possible. "I won't make this hard, or I'll try not to. I want this to work." because she didn't to be unhappy the rest of her life. Ana was a happy person all around, she didn't know how to handle being upset. "So we will figure something out."

He frowned slightly, and reached his hand out to lay it on hers.

"Don't say that. It does matter. It matters very much. I don't like the idea of feeling like we are stuck together. It doesn't have to be like that, not for us. Maybe for others, but not us, Ana."

He squeezed her hand gently, and looked at her face. She had a pretty face, and as guarded as she was, there was a tender vulnerability in her, like she had been this before and been crushed. He realized she had been scheduled to marry someone else, and then, she had been re-assigned to himself. What had happened with that other guy? Maybe she had really fallen for him? Maybe she was worried about falling for him, and the same thing happening? He couldn't be sure. But he was pretty sure this was happening between them, and he decided that he wanted to like her, and get her to like him.

"Well, we need to get together over the next couple weeks. To spend time together. And of course, we need to plan the wedding. We could start with colors. My mum wanted me to ask you about colors. I want you to pick. I'm pretty flexible, about most things really," and he thought that he was, except for maybe some foods and some other small details of his life. He had gotten so he could cope with most things. He was fairly laid back about so much; he felt like the hardest times of his life were behind him, and nothing seemed as worrisome as the things he, Harry and Hermione had faced.
