May Carson looked at herself in the mirror, wearing a dress two sizes too small. She sucked in her stomach and swept back her platinum blond hair. The back of the dress ripped. Sighing, she said, "Poor quality," and took it off before anyone noticed. She put on a skirt and a silver blouse. At least this kind fit, but she didn't think it looked very good. It made her look like she weighed over 90 pounds...Awful.

"Hello. May I help you?"asked the short-haired blonde. She approached May swiftly, holding her hands behind her back. She was wearing an emerald green silk dress over black leggings. Her short blonde hair had been cropped and layered just below her jawline. A long black cord stretched from her ear to her waistline, connecting the Bluetooth earphone and the walkie-talkie. The tag on her chest read 'Evelyn Daniels, Salesperson in Training." She blew her bangs from her eyes and smiled warmly.

"Yes, could you please wear something made in this century?" May asked, disgusted at the salesperson wannabe in front of her. "Wear did you get your clothes, you great grandmother's hand-me-downs?" she added, rolling her eyes and wrinkling her nose. She turned back to the mirror, flattening her hair a bit and then fluffing it back up.

Evelyn continued to smile, as if she were not affected by this at all. "Actually, Miss. I wouldn't diss this outfit if I were you,"she lowered her voice and mumbled to May. "It's the new style EVERYONE likes now. I heard emerald green's Jake Tripp -the Quidditch player-'s favorite color,"she sighed and pulled back. "Apparently, his girlfriend hates this color and refuses to wear it. He's quite upset,"Evelyn sighed again and turned around to fold some of the dropped clothes on the floor. "But if you don't want to wear it, I completely understand. After all, you probably don't even know who he is."

"WHAT?! Jenny didn't tell me that! Oh that lying cheating dirty witch is trying to steal Jakey!" she yelled, rushing to a rack of clothes and pulling off a bunch of emerald dresses. "This one, or this one?" she asked the girl, showing two almost identical dresses. "I like the lighter one better, but I don't know, they're just SO different! What if he would have liked one more than the other?!..." she asked, obsessing over the decision.

((LMAO!! Sorry Kat-la. x.x;; ))
The blonde smiled warmly again. "Actually, I wouldn't buy those if I were you,"she chirped, going around the sales rack and towards the clothes rack in the back. "Now these,"Evelyn giggled, pulling out a horrific-looking emerald green halter-top dress. "These are what ALL the girls are going to be wearing next."

May studied them. "Hmm...kinda reverse sy-co-lology-ical," she said, stumbling over the word 'psychology'. "It looks a little trashy, but it actually makes people stare...I like it! How much?" she asked, reaching for her purse. "And is it in my size?" she added, knowing she would wear it even if it wasn't.

"Well,"Evelyn mumbled, taking a step back and looking at May. "I think it'll fit. You won't mind if it's a bit too tight right?"she asked, holding the clothing in front of her. "It's about,"she looked at the price tag and a small smirk slid across her face for a moment, soon replaced by a worried glance up at May. "Oh my,"she gasped, placing a hand over her mouth. "I don't think you have enough money to buy it, dear."

"Oh please, I have plenty of money saved up from dieting...I haven't eaten anything but rice and water in two weeks!" she exclaimed proudly. "How much is it? A Sickel? Oh, that would be your whole life's saving, huh?" she asked, tssking 'sympathetically'.

Evelyn blinked several times with her mouth dropped. "Oh my god. Is this girl THICK?!" she thought to herself as she put on the warm smile and managed a giggle. "No! Silly. It's about 348 galleons and 99 knuts. With tax, that should be about...352 galleons. Are you sure you have enough?"she asked, "worriedly".

//That's like 3500 dollars...//
"Of course I do...but...why's it that much?" May asked suspiciously. "Are there real diamonds or something?" she added after a second, fidgeting and trying to get a better look at the dress. She decided that when she married Jakey, that would be the dress she wore at the wedding. Who needs white?

(( .... I just finished a math test... I DON'T WANT TO THINK ABOUT MATH. x.x;; Or anything to do with school. x.x;;; And besides... It's supposed to be expensive. Haha.. That's the point. ))
"Actually, I thought you would've wanted out Delux Puddlemere package,"Evelyn replied, blinking innocently. "Since you're such a big fan of Jake and all. Bound to catch Jake's attention,"she grinned. "And we also plan out your first date with him and all that junk. Hair, make-up, shampoo, perfume, etc. etc."

"Oh, then of course it's worth it. Where do I pay?" May asked, pulling the dress away from Natalie, but accidentally ripping it. "Hey! This is cheap! Who made this, a second-rate designer?" she asked, sneering at the dress and then at Natalie. "You were trying to sell me a bad dress!" she accused.

"No,"Evelyn replied slowly, trying to keep her voice calm. "You just ripped the demo version. Do you honestly believe we keep the real thing here?"she scoffed, raising an eyebrow. "And the real thing is going to be made of lighter material than this-phoenix featherfur to be exact-, so I suggest you take proper care of it."

"Oh," May said, scrunching up her nose at all the big words. "Well, I think I'll just go make my own dress!" she said at last. "I don't need YOUR kind touching my clothes ANYWAY," she said, emphasizing every few words. "Even if your dress IS in style...that doesn't excuse your hair. What, do you get your haircuts from Muggles? Oh no, maybe worse...WEASLEYS?!" she scoffed.

Evelyn began to shake violently. The smile on her face twisted into a scowl. "Oh really? Well, if the Weasleys are THAT BAD than why is Jake dating one of them? Care to explain that?!"she growled.

"She has him under a love potion, haven't you read about it in Quidditch Gossip Weekly?" she asked. "Amortentia...poor guy needs someone to break him out of it," she sighed. "I guess I'll have to. Anything to get him away from that selfish little witch he calls a girlfriend."

Evelyn burst out into fits of laughter. "Sorry, sorry,"she said between laughs, wiping the tears from her eyeyes. "It's just... A love potion? Didn't you know she failed Kindergarten and had to retake it? She can't make a potion. And Jake isn't THAT stupid as to-- Wait.. Never mind,"she said hastily, covering her mouth. "But dear. Be reasonable. I really doubt that he's under a love spell."

"So? Maybe someone made it for her?...who cares, but it's obvious he doesn't REALLY love her...and when did you become an expert on this girl? What's her name? Madeline?" she asked, rolling her eyes.

"Natalie,"corrected Evelyn, seething through her teeth. "And I know her because she's...me........best friend,"she said hastily. "Me best friend back in school. So I'd quiet down about it if I were you."

"What are you gonna do? Throw a tantrum?" May scoffed. "Take a picture of us together? That would probably be the worst thing you could POSSIBLY do to me...and I could just say I was buying something and you couldn't stop stalking me..." she laughed.

"Actually,"smirked Evelyn. "I was about to say I was going to call up the security and have you removed from the vicinity, but I've got a better idea,"she stopped and sighed, shaking her head. "Nah, you'd be way too chicken. Forget it."

"Pssh. I think you're crazy," May rolled her eyes. "I don't want to be in this store while YOU'RE here..." she added. "What are you talking about?" she added scornfully.

Evelyn rolled her eyes. "Yea, I really don't think you can handle this assignment. Disregard me. If you want to leave. Leave,"she nodded towards the door. "I suppose I'll have to find someone else to deliver this package to Jake Tripp's house,"she sighed, wistfully, walking towards the counter.
