Sixteen years old. This school year she would turn seventeen and she would be of age. Unless she wanted to be her parents prisoner for the rest of her life she was going to have to find herself somewhere to stay in the next set of summer holidays. This was her last time at home and it had been worse than every. If she didn't have her school work to do she would have been driven absolutely insane. It was mid-august now. The school year would be starting soon and Paris wasn't going to return home. Her parents were keeping a close eye on her but she was sure she could give them the slip. She could live on her own now. She'd gone to their Gringots vault with her parents and while they were getting the money, she helped herself to a couple of extra coins here and there. It wasn't technically stealing because it was the family vault. She was part of the family too, even though it never felt like it any more.
Paris carried on with her shopping and eventually there was only one thing left to do - get her new robes. Her parents waited outside with her sister who had demanded an ice cream and so she'd not been able to enter the shop and of course, they'd much rather spend time with London than Paris and Paris preferred it that way.
The older red-head entered the store. Up above a little bell rang signifying her presence. "Just a moment dear! I'll be with you soon." A voice called from the back of the store and Paris was glad she had a bit of a wait, it meant she was away from her parents for that little bit longer. Maybe she could sneak out the back of here when she was done, slip the woman running the place a couple of extra coins if she could discretely use the back exit.
While she was waiting, Paris browsed through the second hand rail. It was really much cheaper than buying new and if she got second hand then maybe she could keep some more of the money had parents had given her. There wasn't much of a need for her to get brand new clothes when these second hand ones were in a perfectly fine condition. Though Paris knew she was forgetting something. She couldn't leave home yet, her owl was still there. She'd tried letting him go free to find her a bit later but her parents had come in to her room and ushered her out faster than she would have liked so she had no chance of sneaking him out of the front door. She didn't even want to think of what they'd do to the poor owl if she didn't return. At least they'd let her out to get shopping, that was good and made her think that they'd actually let her go to school this year and not keep her locked up until the day she died. Who knew, maybe they would let her leave the house, maybe they'd disown her. That'd be nice.
