Who Would Have Guessed?
I was so sad when the last harry potter movie came out TT^TT
theres no more to look forward too.
lemme get some things clear okay? this is 7th year at hogwarts, draco, luna, the golden trio, all of them are around 18 of course and the whole huge battle is one of the hush topics around the slytherin house, and well, the entire school.
story time~!
Luna looked around the great hall with her whimsical smile, she loved it when the student body was getting ready for the holidays, talking with their friends and making plans. She was happy for them, she truly was. Eating silently, she imagined what Christmas might be like with her father, if he wasn't going off and if she wasn't staying at school during the break. she was so caught up in her thoughts that she hadn't noticed the great hall starting to empty as people started walking to their dorms to pack and say more goodbyes. 'Its so sad,' she absently thought as she walked out of the hall as well, making her way towards Ravenclaw tower, 'Why do people have to say good bye?' she hadn't noticed till then that she was missing her book.
"Oh bother... The knargles must have taken it again..." she said to herself in her breezy voice, turning around only to hear laughing.
"Looney Luna, maybe you shouldn't think so much. It can't be good for you," she looked at the man, Draco Malfoy, who was holding her book in his hand, leaning against the wall with his green and silver tie slightly loosened.
"Oh there's my book, Where'd you find it Draco?" she asked in a happy tone, not bothered by her long time nickname. Draco's eyes narrowed. he had just taken her book and she really hadn't noticed.
"You really are mad. Or daft." he muttered. Picking on Luna would be so much more fun if she whined instead of just smiling at him in her dreamy state of mind. Luna however, tilted her head, "I didn't hear you Draco, but thank you for finding my book, I was worried it was gone forever like my bag, or my other shoes."
Draco shook his head lightly. He knew where her stuff was. He had taken it in the first place. Was she really that clueless? he started to walk away, book still in hand.
"Wait, won't you give me my book?" she asked his turned back as the white blonde haired boy looked over his shoulder.
"Why should I?" the Slytherin asked in a bored tone. All Luna ever did was smile at him. Usually that wouldn't affect him, but she seemed so innocent, he couldn't be entirely outright mean to her. This was a new concept that he found better to ignore.
"Well, I was going to read it over the break, and I'm at a good part. Do you want to borrow it?" Draco barely hid a twitch. He didn't want the damn book, he wanted her to complain, or whine, or threaten to go tell a teacher. How could she be so nice? He had been picking on her since they were first years and all she ever did was smile. She really was mad. And maddening.
"I don't. But I think I'll keep it anyways," he replied with a smirk, starting to walk again.
"Oh... Well okay, be safe, I thought I saw some knargles earlier," she said happily. Draco growled. He had just taken her book, and she just let him. The girl with the radish earrings had just let him. She wasn't like any of the other girls, she didn't swoon, she didn't whine, she never complained. What was wrong with her!
Muttering the password outside the Slytherin dungeons, sauntering in with his high and mighty air as the room went silent. Being the prince of Slytherin had its definite perks, Draco thought as he walked into his dorm room with Blaise, who quirked an eyebrow seeing the book.
"Charms and Fairies? Never knew you liked fantasy. Or reading," his room mate said. Draco threw the book at him.
"Shut up, its Looney's. She's so dense, I took it right in front of her and she did nothing. Nothing but smile. She's maddening!" Draco growled flopping onto his bed.
"Well she is mad. Why do you even try to get under her skin still? Its been 7 years and everyone in school knows your a prick anyway," his friend said jokingly, tossing the book back to Draco who caught it absentmindedly.
"Whatever, she's unnerving is all, no one could possibly be that nice. My family held her hostage for Merlin's sake! She should at least be a little bitter, not just going on about 'Knargles', whatever they are." Draco growled out before sitting up and fully removing his tie, "When do you leave tomorrow?"
"Early, but my things are already packed," he replied going back to his essay, "I'm trying to get this essay done before I leave though so if you could wallow in silence, that'd be great." Draco frowned at his friends remark. He was not wallowing. Malfoy's don't wallow. Blaise must just be messing with him.
"I can practically hear you stewing, Draco. Why are you so obsessed with her anyways? Its just Looney Luna. Who cares what she things in her crazy brain?" Blaise said after a few minutes, giving up the idea of finishing his essay. Draco could get so needy sometimes when something was on his mind.
"I am NOT obsessed," Draco said defensively, sitting up to glower at his roommate. He was not obsessed with Looney Luna Lovegood. It was different from that.
"You follow her in the halls, you want to get under her skin, and I hear you muttering about her to yourself often. If you aren't normally-obsessed about her, then you are in love with her, Draco. Live with it, either recognize it or get over it."
"I just want her to do something other than just give me that damned smile!" Malfoy growled out, running his hand roughly through his hair, freeing it from it's slicked back style. He was not in love with Luna Lovegood. He wasn't in love with anyone. He was a Malfoy!
"Maybe you want her to give a more personal smile, hmm?" Blaise continued, but now he was teasing. Draco wasn't quite sure how to react to that. Sure, his first instinct was to be pissed, but that would give Blaise way too much pleasure. And we wouldn't want that, would we?
"I'm beginning to think that you are much too bloody interested in this concept, perhaps you're jealous?" Draco asked giving Blaise a bored look with slightly narrowed eyes.
"I don't agree my friend," Blaise replied holding back a snicker. Draco could be so cute when he was trying to piss him off, "What's there to be jealous of? As if I would want your fancy. Though you seem to want Looney's."
Draco growled lightly, sometimes he really hated Blaise, he always seemed to say ridiculous things. "Now why would I want that? She's just Looney Luna."
"If you say so, Draco, if you say so. Now shut up so I can think."
Well its a tad shorter than what i usually put out, but this might only end up as a one-shot
so i guess its okay...
