James shot a thoughtful, sideways glance at Carr but didn't pry. "Distractions are good. I live my life one distraction at a time."

Hmmm adorable.

"I'll let you get away with adorable this time." Just this once though. He grinned as they approached the counter.

Carr shrugged and said, "I'd no idea at the time that he'd put so much effort into it simply because I told him he couldn't." She paused for a moment and added, "Though I suppose I should have. Anyway, he's transferred out of Hogwarts now. Doesn't keep in touch, either, the rag."

She didn't bring up the subject of distractions again, edging aroudn it. No one at school new about her mother and, while she was enjoying Jimmy's company, she wasn't about to tell someone she'd only just met.

"Hm, oh, yes," she said, clearly satisfied with herself. She had managed to dodge around being a completely useless girl and falling for Jimmy's act... or, mostly, at least. "I rather thought you'd be all right with it. It is a complement from a pretty girl, after all," she added, tossing her white, blond hair over her shoulder expertly. So expertly, in fact, that it toppled her fedora to the ground where the white fabric seem to suck in all the dust around it.

"Oh, no," she said, looking a little annoyed but not really upset as she picked the hat up from the ground and brushed it off slightly. "I should really stop trying to be flirtatious," she said, smiling behind a blush. "It only leads to things being knocked to the floor." She chuckled and said, "I was flirting with the Flourish and Blotts shop keeper earlier and ran directly into the glass doors on my way out." She grinned. "Suave I am not."

Carr placed everything she was buying on the counter and counted them out in her head. There were two boxes of Every Flavour Beans, two packages of Pumpking Pasties, two boxes of invisible gum, and two pumpkin fizzes. She'd managed to talk herself out of everything else. "How much for these?" she asked the shopkeeper, momentarily drawing her attention away from Jimmy.
