A/N - A belated New Year's present to LunaxGinny fans, also I felt bad about the long wait for the third chapter of my SHSIC... story. Enjoy!

New Year's Wish
"Do you realize we are the only two people at this party who haven't a date, or even someone to snog for the New Year?"
Luna keeps her eyes transfixed on the clock, silently counting along with the unheard ticks of the moving hands.
"Perhaps, there's reason for that," She responds softly.
"Oh, yeah? What's the reason, then." Ginny asks irritably, her eyes also glued to the clock, waiting for this whole thing to be over with.
"I don't quite understand why you obsess over such things," Luna says quietly, biting into the onion from her gillywater, making Ginny lean closer to hear her over the party around them, "isn't it enough to have been here another year with those you love?"
Ginny blushes, feeling stupid for having made such a big show about it.
There's silence between them now, and soon Ginny is aware of everyone counting down to the new year,
"Five..Four..Three..Two..One..HAPPY NEW YEARS!"
There's blowing of party favours, popping of wizard crackers, and someone mutters a spell to spew butterbeer from their wand allover the room's occupants.
"Well, at least that's over with now." Ginny turns to face Luna, ready to tell her it's over and at least they can get back to the party, when she comes eye to eye with the ravenclaw and before Ginny can step back Luna's lips are on Ginny's and Ginny's lips are on Luna's. Seconds pass, maybe minutes, Ginny sure isn't counting the time anymore. There's a large 'ohhing' and Luna pulls away, smiling serenely as though she hadn't just kissed the ginger.
Ginny ignores the crowd whispering around them, ignores Harry high fiving Draco with a loud 'told you so!', and even ignores Mrs. Weasley's gaping. She just stands there momentarily, remembering the feeling of the New Year fireworks shooting off in her chest, clouding her head with the smoke of the quick kisse's aftermath. But she doesn't let the time pass too long before she blinks up at Luna, at her glittering smile, soft blue eyes and takes her gentle lips again. There's more 'ohhing' and a 'Ginny!' from Mrs. Weasley, but Ginny ignores that too as she finishes the kiss and puts a little space between them, then she feels Luna lean into her ear, "Happy New Year Ginny."
A/N - Awh, I really love GinnyxLuna, they make me so happy. Well, Happy New Years! People are still shooting fireworks here in Venezuela. xD
