Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter and this story is purely taken from my fluffy imagination. Enjoy. :)

Draco walked slowly out to the train platform. Yes, he was back. After the Potter gang helped to overthrow the Dark Lord, he found himself thrown in Azkaban. Serving his sentence. Now, he was out. Given another chance.

He missed his mother. He missed her encouraging words and her smile. He missed her hugs. He didn't care for his father nor did he wish to see him again. Bitter memories swirled in his mind as he thought of Lucius. Draco shook his head to clear his thoughts.

He felt a certain emptiness as he looked at the other students on the platform with their families. "You're jealous." A small voice whispered inside his head.

"I am not!" Draco said angrily to himself. At last, the Hogwarts Express arrived. He sighed and climbed aboard, wishing he didn't have to go back.

Luna POV

I walked along the corridor of the train, trying to find Harry and the others.

"Hello! Oh sorry, wrong compartment."

I closed the door and advanced to the next one. This time I was a little dumbfounded at what I saw.

"Hello Draco."

He looked up and stared at me. His eyes were empty and dark. Then that familiar sneer came back on his face.

"What do you want, Looney Lovegood?"

I went in and sat opposite him.

"Did I say you could come in here?"

I just studied his face. He looked tired and empty. This time, none of his usual back- ups were with him and he looked lonely. He looked like he lacked love. Wait, he definitely lacked love.

"You should eat more radishes."

"What?" He looked at me in confusion and disbelief.

"Oh, I believe they heal one's mind and soul. They bring good luck too."

He rolled his eyes at me. I just smiled at him.

"If you don't mind, I would like to be alone."

His voice was surprisingly soft. I glanced at him. The once high and mighty Slytherin Prince seemed lost in his own world. And he was actually talking nicely for once.

Then suddenly the door opened. "Luna?"

"Oh hi, Harry." I smiled at the Boy-Who-Lived-Twice.

He smiled back at me for a moment. When he realized who else was there, his smile faded. A cloud of anger seemed to come over his face.

"Luna! What are you doing with him?"

Draco rolled his head to Harry's direction.

"Oh great. Another one. Would the stupid Potter gang get out of here now? I need my peace..."

Draco went back to staring out of the window.

Harry glared at Draco. I took one last look at Draco before allowing myself to be dragged away by Harry. I felt the urge to comfort him, to tell him everything was alright. His fair hair fell over his eyes. Those grey eyes were not focused on anything but they just stared. They were empty. Void of life.

"Luna are you listening to me?" Harry spun around, his robes flapping.

I looked at Harry. "He is not evil."

Harry sighed in frustration, dragging me to the compartment where Ron and Hermione were.

"Luna where were you?" Hermione's worried eyes met mine.

Ron looked at Harry. "What's the matter, Harry?"

Harry just shook his head and sat down next to Ron. I took the seat next to Hermione and thought about that fair-headed boy.

Draco POV

The first lesson of the day was with Professor Slughorn's lesson. Potions, potions, potions. Why couldn't he just have a potion that would make my life better? Class had not started yet and everyone was making a racket. I looked to my right and saw two girls whispering and turning in my direction.

I felt uncomfortable. I liked and wanted attention, but not this kind. Awkwardly, I moved up and moved to the empty table at the back, avoiding the glares that were shot my way.

"Hello Draco." A silvery voice greeted me.

I turned to my right. Looney was there. Smiling at me. I looked away. I didn't deserve hospitality.

"I know what you're feeling Draco. Don't be disheartened."

I shook my head. "You don't know anything, Looney."

I felt pathetic. Of all people that had to comfort me was this beautiful girl that I made fun of during fourth year. Yes, I admit she was something to look at.

"You lack love Draco."

I winced at the word. She seemed to notice.

"Sorry. Didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable."

"What's it to you?"

I decided to keep quiet after that remark. She made me feel unsettled. Why was she talking to me? What did she want?

Then Slughorn came in and ordered the class to be quiet. This was going to be a long day.

Please R&R! :)
