Luna looked up at the brass plate on the door: Wilbert Wangner, head of Aurror department. She shuddered then knocked three times.
"Come in." Said a rasping voice from the other side of the door. Taking a deep breath Luna turned the doorknob and entered the room.
"Ah Luna, darling" Said Wilbert leering at her from the other side of his large desk. Luna looked up at him, trying to repress a shudder. Wilbert Wangner was a tubby old man in his late forties; his head was nearly completely bear apart from a rim of greying brown hair at the base and sides of his head. Luna hated him; he always found a way of touching her or any of the other females under thirty in the Aurror department. Repressing another shudder she moved forwards and sat down on the chair that had magically drawn itself from the desk.
"Mr Wangner, can I ask you a favour?" She asked as politely as possible.
"Depends on what it is, doesn't it dear." He replied smiling repulsively at her. She shivered slightly, regretting it instantly, Luna quickly looked up and inwardly sighed with relief when she saw that he was still wearing that sickening smile on his face.
"Well, I was wandering if I could have the rest of the day off"
"Hmm…" He said sitting back in his chair, pondering if he should let her go. "Well that depends on what it's for."
" My boyfriend, Dean Thomas, is taking me out for our three year anniversary."
"See if I did, what would you do for me?" He leaned closer to her with a suggestive smile on his face. Luna nearly gasped as she felt his hand on her thigh, slowly pushing her skirt higher and higher up her leg. She clenched her teeth and did as she usually does and pretended not to notice the smile or the hand that was now working its way up her thigh.
"I'll work extra hard tomorrow, I think I have a lead on Ralph Ranfreds where a bouts." She said smiling brightly at him, glorifying in the way the remark had wiped the smile off his face and how his hand slipped down her thigh a fraction.
"I'll keep you to that." He grinned recovering quickly.
"Thank you Mr Wangner." She said gaily pushing back her chair and skipping from the room. She was very relieved when she closed the door behind her and headed to the main entrance.
She was humming quietly to herself as she got into the lift where she was joined by Ginny.
"Hey, Ginny!" Luna sang as she moved to avoid Ginny's bulging belly, "How many months left?" She inquired.
"Two." Ginny replied grumpily, " A whole two months to go before I get this thing out of me, and I'll be glad when it is." Luna smiled to herself, she was used to Ginny's mood swings by now but even she couldn't wait for the baby to be born so that they would stop.
Luna was relieved when the lift finally reached the Autorium- Ginny's complaints were beginning to take a toll on her, and she wanted to be in a good mood for her date with Dean. She waved at Ginny as she danced out of the lift and made her way to a vacant fireplace.
