Anria had been craving something sweet the entire day. So, when classes finally ended she rushed to her dormitory and got her money satchel. They weren't supposed to leave their dorms today, but that wasn't going to stop her sweet tooth. Not today at least. She was usually a goody-two shoes who always followed orders and never even dared to break any sort of rule. If the potion's book said to stir clockwise, she would never even think about doing it counterclockwise. She followed instructions to the letter.
That day, however, she was feeling on the edge. She followed down a secret passage that would take her into Hogsmeade. Being cautious about anyone following her, she took several useless passages to try and confuse anyone who might be suspicious of her. Not that anyone actually cared. She was just nervous because it was her first time breaking the rules for something as superfluous as candy. Finally, she reached the corridor she was looking for and sneaked into the passage.
"Lumos." she uttered quietly as she got her wand out. Her footsteps echoed and creaked as she went under Hogwarts towards Hogsmeade. Her shadow was the only bouncing figure being reflected.
The other end of the tunnel reached a secluded boxed corner. She kicked at it with her foot a couple of times, and the boards opened. She got out and no longer feared getting caught. She wrapped her cloak closer to her body as it was beginning to get chilly in the dusk air. Coming from the countryside, the not so warm night air was something Anria had still not gotten used to. Honeydukes came into sight and she went in with a bounce in her step from excitement. Her dark hair swished back and forth behind her in a high ponytail. The door chimed signaling her entrance. The clerk smiled at her which she mirrored back to them. Now all she had to do was decide what she wanted to buy and go back before anyone noticed she was gone.
