The Secret Diary of Luna Lovegood

A Harry Potter Fanfiction

Chapter 1: The Hogwarts Express-Age 11.

Hello. I have been given this book by my Daddy, he says it will come in useful. I think he wants me to help him with 'The Quibbler' when I'm older. He told me to use this to write down descriptions of any new creatures I find at Hogwarts. I have decided not to do this; it would be silly, as any creatures at Hogwarts have probably already been discovered. Instead I'm going to use this book to write down all about my life at Hogwarts, so that I never forget. I wish Mummy would have done that, I never really got a chance to ask her anything about her time at this school, and Daddy won't say much. I do miss her very much, and I'm going to do my very best at school, because I want to make her really proud, if she's up there somewhere, watching over me.

I'm sat here in a compartment of the train that is empty, except for me. Nobody wanted to sit by me, but I don't mind, it's their loss, I can actually hold a fairly good conversation, in my opinion anyway. There is one girl that smiled at me earlier, Daddy told me at the station that she's a Weasley, and lives quite close to us. She has lots of brothers, so she's sat by them, but hopefully we can be friends at school. I've heard that one of her brothers is best friends with Harry Potter. Imagine that, friends with HARRY POTTER! I hope I get to meet him at some point.

I'd better go now, looks like everyone's changing into their robes. I do hope that the toilets are not infested with Nargles, as I find it rather uncomfortable getting changed in their presence.
