Anna pushed the door to the three broomsticks. Gusts of warm air hitted her pale numb face. Alas! SOmwhere warm and cosy. The place was quite empty. I guess I'm one of the first to come here. She saw a group of chatty girls talking animatedly at the far corner.
Anna walked fast to the counter, waiting for the bartender to arrive. She wanted something new.....

Gwen turned as she felt the door open. The cold wind that blew in as with each new customer was unmistakable. She smiled as she saw another girl walk into the pub. ~She looks rather pale...a warm drink would do her good.~ Walking toward her, Gwen began to speak. "Hello! I'm Guinevere Gwendolyn Greyson, otherwise known as Gwen. Can I get you anything?"

Anna was surprised when a young woman suddenly greeted her. "Oh hi! You startled me there! Hi Gwen, well I'm Anna and I think I would like to try....ermm....lets say...Firewhiskey?"
Anna did not know if she was allowed to have one, but lets just find out.

Gwen looked at Anna suspiciously. ~She looks a little young...~ Gwen decided she should probably ask how old she was. "Anna...how old are you?" She hoped the girl wouldn't lie, that would create quite a pickle for Gwen.

The lady looked at her hard. Okay...I think she knows...she's suspicious of me... Anna smiled sweetly at her and said, "Ummm......well...I'm fifteen if you want to know."
She was keen to try on the Firewhiskey so she added, "Is there a problem?"

Gwen looked skeptically at Anna. ~Well, I certainly admire her boldness. It figures I'd get a bold one as one of my first customers...hopefully, she won't be a bother when I tell her no. She doesn't seem like she would be.~ Taking a deep breath, Gwen shook her head. "I'm afraid there is. I can't allow anyone under seventeen to have any firewhiskey. But if there's anything else you'd like, I'd be happy to get it for you."
~I hope that she'll understand...~

Anna was not at all surprised to hear the lady's reply. She looks nice though. Too bad I can't have it! Her face gave a sullen espression.
She looked at the owner and said to her, "What do you have here? ApPart from butterbeer. I need something to make me alive and active. I'm feeling a bit down today so I think having a boost would do me good!"

Gwen thought for a moment. "A boost? Well...we don't have anything particularly on the menu...but...I find that butterbeer mixed with a splash of pomegranate juice and cloves is always a lovely pick-me-up...but if you don't like that...Perhaps some lemon soda with a splash of lime and cinnamon? Or hot teas are always a possibility..." She thought a bit more, but couldn't come up with anything. "Any of those strike your fancy?"
((Sorry is took me so long to reply. I clicked on it one day and then had to run and then forgot about it. Soo sorry!))

((I don't think she will be on for awhile))
Emily pushed open the door, quite bored out of her mind, decided to come and visit a friend. She figured her friend would be just as bored seeing as not many people cam to she shoppe.

((I do believe you're right.))
Gwen heard the door jingle a bit as another person entered The Three Broomsticks. After making sure Anna knew she would be back eventually, she turned to see who had come in. Grinning, she saw it was Emily Silver, someone she hadn't seen in a while. ~What a lovely surprise. I wonder what she's doing here...~
She smiled as she waited for her to make her way over to the bar, as she couldn't leave her station for a bit. "Emily! How are you? What brings you down here? It's been a while since I've seen you down in Hogsmede. I hope school hasn't been keeping you too busy...What classes are you taking this term?" Gwen laughed a bit at her sudden outburst of questions. "Sorry for all the questions. But here's one more...Would you like anything?"

Emily was very pleased that Gwen was happy to see her.
"Oh, just some water for now please." she smiled.
"Well school has been very hectic, but I figured I can take a break for a friend. eh?"

Gwen pulled out a two glasses and poured water in both of them before handing one to Emily and keeping one for herself. She giggled. "School is always hectic isn't it? I can remember how my studies really picked up in my fifth year. That's when you really start having to work..." She smiled, knowing full-well that Emily would be bogged down with homework.
And she was thrilled that she would take time to come visit her. "Breaks are always amazing, and good for the brain. Especially when you're visiting a friend." Smiling, she took a sip of her water. "Business has really been slow lately, so it's nice to finally see you in here. I was afraid the town had scared you off. I hope that's not the case?"

"Yep that's what they did I'm afraid! That's why I'm standing here today." she said the a wide grin and a wink.
She took a gulp of her water seeing as she walked her she was quite thirsty. Emily placed the glass back down on the counter.
"So have you met anyone... well you might say, special since you left Hogwarts?" she asked with yet another wink of her left eye.

Gwen laughed. "Oh, funny one you are, Emily. I am glad they didn't scare you away though. You're one of the few."
She took a sip of her water as Emily did. She hadn't taken a break for a bit and had just realized how thirsty she really was. ~Hmm. It's amazing what a short shift can do to you!~ Gwen sputtered and coughed as Emily asked her if she had met anyone 'special' since she had left Hogwarts.
"Heavens, no, Emily. What do you take me for? I've only been back for a few months." She giggled. "What about you, though? You've been here for a while. Have you met anyone, as you say, special?"

"Haha no of course not! Who would have me?? No one that's who."
Her smile brodened ((sp? lol)) you would not be lying to me now would you? I do not take you as that kind of person but Gwen come on. There is no one that catches your eye?"
