Making her way through the crowds that generally made up Hogsmeade Andromeda set her sights on The Three Broomsticks. She was supposed to be meeting Lourdes, as their Mother’s suggested that they become more acquainted while away at school. It wasn't something Andromeda wanted to do, but if she were to refuse her parents would suspect her true feelings about their family friends. The fact that she thought them to be a bunch of cruel, cold-hearted bigots was enough to turn the attention on her alone, if they knew that Andromeda was in love with a muggle-born would get her disowned quicker than she could say quidditch. Though she couldn't say that she was best friends with Lourdes, she knew that the fifth year girl could talk and secrets tended to spread like wildfire around her. Without a doubt Andromeda was going to be careful of how she acted as far as the Harper girl was concerned. Unfortunately that required not ditching this little meeting in Hogsmeade.
She had to tend to the younger students in the village before she went that way, so that was what Andromeda had done. So far she had broken up a group of students surrounding a Ravenclaw and a fellow Slytherins, two third years trying to sneak into the shrieking shack, and a couple of fourth years bugging some other witches and wizards trying to do their shopping. All in all, it had been a rather busy time for her and it would be nice to sit down for a few minutes. Once the students were all taken care of, and weren't causing any more trouble for the time being, Andromeda was able to finally get ever closer to The Three Broomsticks. For a moments time she wondered why Lourdes had chosen this place, as it was sure to be busy. It wasn't as if she had trouble being around large groups of people, but Andromeda liked to avoid it as much as she could. Hogwarts was full of people as it was, and she really looked forward to have some quiet. Despite the disappointment of location, Andromeda wouldn’t say a word against it to Lourdes. The girl might assume she had something to hide, and that was why she didn't feel like being around a lot of people.
As she was approaching the pub Andromeda shot polite smiles to people as she passed them by, while some returned the smile or gave a nod, others glared-she supposed it was her resemblance to Bellatrix that was the reason for this behavior. She knew her sister had a bit of a nasty reputation, and a much nastier temper. Even though she made it seem like their actions didn’t bother her, Andromeda still hated that she looked so like her older sister. It’s like the resemblance between the two made it hard for a lot of people to regard their personality differences. Pushing the incidents from her mind Andromeda finally reached The Three Broomsticks, after what seemed like forever. It wasn’t a surprise when she saw that the pub was full of Hogwarts students, as well as other people there who had stopped there for a break from their shopping. Running her fingers though her hair and straightening out the skirt of her dress, Andromeda began scanning the room for Lourdes, or else a way out of this meeting.
