Trying to look like he knew exactly what he was looking for.
Except he totally didn't.
Glancing around furtively, he noticed only a handful of girls - to whom he gave a non-chalant nod. Best to remain cool at all times. - and a couple of older people, a man and a woman. Ethan started to approach them, certain that one was the shopkeeper, then stopped as he got closer. From what he could hear from their conversation, he got the distinct idea that the man was the shopkeeper. Seriously? He was convinced that such a place as girly as this would be run by a woman... but whatever. Ethan shrugged to himself, then held up a glittery, scented soap for inspection as he waited for a lapse in their conversation to ask for assistance.
Coconut scented shampoo. That is what Sarah was on the hunt for. She'd run out while on holiday in the Dominican Republic with Lori and the guys, and the stuff really did wonders for her hair, especially when wet with salty sea water. Stocking up now would be ideal, as she could take the lot to Hogwarts with her.... The Prefect's bathroom was a wonderful place.
Shutting the door behind her, Sarah strode to the back of the shop, where the display used to be. She didn't know if they'd moved anything around, but it wasn't a huge shop so she'd be able to find it either way. Except - there was someone stood in the way. A boy no less. Looking at... was that scented soap? Oh, how very macho.
"Excuse me? I just need to get to this stand, would you mind shifting a little to your left please?" Polite as ever, Sarah smiled at him, and pointed in the direction of what she wanted.
