Luna POV:

I walked into Madam Malkins to get new dress-robes. It's July and I'm freshly out of Hogwarts. My last year….

I have ran into so many things since I got out of school. Daddy says it's the fuzznucklers, but I can't help but think that just maybe I'm too distracted.

I'm so excited to run around and find new and exciting creatures, and publish them to the Quibbler! I'm thinking about it so much. It's all I'm doing, all the time.

"AUCH!" I'm so alarmed! I just ran into something, AGAIN! Maybe it was th-

"Excuse you, miss. I would rather like it if you would mind my ribs!"

My murky-misty eyes look up to meet, none other than Draco Malfoy.

I haven't seen him since…. Hogwarts!

"I'm sorry Draco." I simply state as I look him from his black vested chest, to his icy blue-gray eyes, to his blonde, disheveled looking hair… was that my fault?

"LOO-Lovegood…" he states as I watch him walk out of the shop…..

I hadn't noticed how handsome he was before; maybe a nibbwibbler bit him… they're said to be messengers of Aphrodite, little Cupids' if you will.

He was just so handsome… oh well, I'm sure my new-work will make me forget all about him!

These black and purple robes seem right, maybe they can be my new work robes! They would go great with my teal stockings and owl-socks! Oh! Maybe Draco would like them…..

Or maybe he isn't that easy to forget.

Maybe my short attention-span, just can focus on Draco….

Maybe I'm on my way to being cured!

As I go to get my new robes fitted, Madam Malkin just keeps talking….

But I can't focus on her, no. I just keep focusing on Draco; I better stop focusing on Draco, or I might start to just LIKE him.

I hated him so much at Hogwarts, with his aristocratic, pratty, snoody, self-absorved, father-obsessing, alien-faced, unnatural colored eyed, lanky, handsome, gorgeous…..

"and that boy also said he would put in a good-word about our shop at the ministry, oh bless his heart! Those Malfoys are-"

Wait… I think she's talking about

"Draco?"

"Oh, was that his name? Well, yes, yes, darling! Such a great boy! Always in the magazines! Oh yes, I've seen him, much about him!"

That's strange…. I didn't know Draco was in wizarding magazines. Maybe I will take a look.

It's not like I LIKE him, so, it can't hurt, can it?

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I stomped in the door to my house, my fuzzlewalbee-calling shoes, tapping through the door.

My miss-matched, glowing socks, baby-blue tutu, neon-shirt, and all-too-white hat make me look like a lighting-bug-fairy mated with a ricklewackerigg. I feel so joyous! I had a great day! Daddy and me popped into Heidelberg to look for some new discoveries.

We didn't find anything new, but we did have an absolutely wonderful time!

I walk into my spacious dark-blue room to take off my tapping shoes and relax…. Until I spot a magazine laying open in the corner of my room, opened, with a picture of Draco.

He is lovely, really! I wish I could be his friend…. Maybe I could be! Oh! I could have Mekka talk to him! That would be just lovely. Maybe they could introduce us!

My eyes start to shine as I consider the thought. I could just ask…..

Or maybe I AM starting to LIKE Draco Malfoy, which would... be bad, I think. This is interesting... I have never felt like this before... not even over meeting Harry Potter!

I ran to my owl, Shai, and scribble a note to Mekka.

Mekka,

I was thinking, maybe you could do me a favor? It means so much to me... It's actually for love. I want love. Love sounds so great! I can only imagine...like being high up on a cloud. Could you meet somebody for me? I don't know them, and I'm scared of what they will think of me... and you're a man too. It would be awesome... Maybe even the uzlegurgs will reward you!

I love you,

Luna:)

It wasn't long until I got my long-awaited reply from Mekka. My eyes couldn't contain their excitement, they were betraying me.

Luna,

of course I will! anything to make you happy. It isn't that much that you ask of... maybe this wonderful person you are talking about could be your true-love, after-all. I remember back in Hogwarts, when you always dreamed up and wished for your soul-mate... do you remember? Could this guy be it? Are you feeling it? What is going on? This is only the first I have heard! How are you? and You owne me an explanation :) :)

I love you forever, best friends,

Mekka

My eyes were gleaming, I was so excited! They do that when I am excited...

Mekka!

Hey dear! I don't know, if he is my true-love, or soul-mate, but he sure looks like it... In my last year at Hogwarts, I remember wishing on the corn-node-starlights, I had finally found one and wished for my soul-mate. It was beautiful! I used to dislike this person... I thought him and his father so stupid, but maybe the higglehillerbuzees have opened my eyes for me, and made me see clear... I'm great! Do you know him... maybe you do? Or maybe you could meet him... he was a year ahead of us in Hogwarts... a Slytherin; Draco Malfoy.

XOXOXOXO,
Luna!

waiting for Mekka's reply, I started to feel dizzy, and fuzzy, and very-not myself, very uncalm...but, all very soon, my owl flew into my pixie-dusted window, making entry for Mekka's reply. I was nervous, although I probably didn't show it, I never do.

Hey!

Oh, Luna, luna, luna. Luna Malfoy! That does have a ring... :) haha. I know him! You could say we are friends, if you wanted. We talk, yes. We work in the ministry of magic, together. Although I'm working in Russia now, I could just pop-in for work at the London ministry. I live close to it! We get along quite well! I would love to have a get-together with him soon. Maybe I could hook some people up ;)
Darling girl! Be prepared to fall in LOVE. This Malfoy, he is so handsomely cute and rich... but, I told you, we're friends. He doesn't trust girls. He had so many at his time at school. He cleaned up, after Hogwarts... I'm so sorry. : ( He will take some getting to! I will try to get him to owl you. Make up an excuse, you know? Are you ready to be... well, I haven't thought anything up yet! haha! He doesn't really communicate with girls now because they used him so much, but don't worry. I'll handle it. Promise. ;D

xxxxxxoooooooxxxx,

Mekka

At the last part, I sighed. It could work out. I've already developed a big crush on Draco Malfoy in less than 24 hours, and with the last 7 years, I would not have even looked twice at him!
What is happening to me...?

For now, I'm just going to blame the nibbwibblers...
