It was a rather depressing time, and Amelia decided to buy herself some flowers to cheer up herself and her bedroom. She couldn't quite decide what kind to buy though, and eventually found a cosy looking flower shop in Hogsmeade. Tulips? No. Tulips were brought to declare love and although she respected herself, that was going too far. Lillies? No. They're commonly associated with death. Don't want any of that right now, thank you very much. Lavender? No; distrust. Orange Blossom? God no; fertility.
She walked into the shop and looked around. It was empty. Even the till space was vacant, and Amelia wondered if she'd just walked into a closed shop by accident. She looked at the door behind her, which was clearly unlocked, and even had a sign saying 'open' showing to the outside world. "Maybe business just isn't blossoming this year..." She sniggered quietly, pleased with the pun she so quickly thought up. After a while of standing just within the entrance, she decided to look at the flowers on the shelves. They all showed such beautiful colours, and Amelia had to draw a breath, as the peacefulness overwealmed her.
