Dorian swung a shopping back filled with books back and forward as he walked on the south side of Diagon Alley. Unlike yesterday when he had been a tad bit annoyed, he was in a good mood now and he was even whistling as he walked. At home, his father had basically forced him to wear him Head Boy badge because it was an 'proud achievement you should show to the rest of the world.' As his father would say. To keep him from annoying him even further, Dorian had kept the badge on while he had walked to Diagon Alley but the moment he had arrived, he had put it back inside of his bag. The letter had stated that he should be wearing it at all times at school. Not everywhere.

He sighed as he continued to walk, no destination for now. He thought about the situation at Hogwarts right now. The mist had still not been taken care of according to the Daily Prophet article and the two students hadn't been found yet either. If those two were still alive, it was a bloody miracle. But the more he thought about it, the more he started to think that going to Beauxbaton this year wouldn't be that bad.

He stopped walking in front of the Quidditch shop window and curiously looked inside to see the latest broom model. He didn't need to look at the prize tag to know that he wouldn't be able to afford it. And by the time he could, a new model would already be out. But it didn't hurt to admire it from afar.
