I do NOT own Harry Potter or any of the characters in this story. And I cannot right click! Not the point! This is my first story on here, not the first I've written. I hope you like it!

She sat there with tears crawling down her face and into her lap. She didn't understand. Dumbledore was the greatest teacher ever, why didn't the goggle men come and save him from his horrible fate?

Next to her she saw Neville crying also. He'd actually made it longer than her without crying. He'd been there with her whenever he could. He didn't think she was weird, or at least didn't care. To her that meant a lot. She'd stood by her beliefs for so long only because she had nothing else. She had her best friends though, just not Dumbledore. That just brought her sobbing again.

This time when the tears became too much she leaned on Neville's shoulder. His arm reached around behind her and pulled her closer. He pulled his face up next to her's and gave in to his control on his crying and began sobbing just as much as Luna. After the end of the funeral Neville stopped crying and leaned back in his seat. He seemed deep in thought.

Luna looked around for the rest of the school's reactions. Almost everyone was teary eyed. Over at the other side of the school she spotted Harry and Ginny talking, both looking distressed over something. Then she saw Ron and Hermione both hugging and crying. Luna couldn't help but smiling at them. The yegers had finally gotten to end their fighting. That was good, they were so cute together. Plus Luna was still sick of seeing Ron and Lavender everywhere together…..on top of each other and seeing Hermione's desperate attempts for revenge. Then Ginny strode up next to Luna clearly upset.

"He won't let me go with him. He's not coming back next year, he's going after you-know-who and leaving me behind," she fumed.

"I'm sure the only reason he doesn't want you to go is because he's worried about you. I mean what if the gabbres get you? Then what would he do? I think he really loves you." Luna said trying to defend Harry.

"Yes, but doesn't he think that I can take care of myself? Or does he believe only the golden trio will be able to protect themselves?" Ginny questioned.

"I'm pretty sure he believes you can protect yourself, I mean he's seen you and your magical abilities, you're awesome!" Luna said. Ginny got up and walked away. Luna sighed and leaned back in her chair. There was a long and uncomfortable silence that Luna spent looking over at the 'golden trio' that had made Ginny so upset before Neville interrupted it.

"D-did she say Harry was going after y-you-know-who?" Neville asked Luna.

"Yes. It's not very smart but I suppose it's something he feels he has to do. By the looks of it Ron and Hermione are going along also. That's probably what's making her mad, letting Ron go and not her. Oh but look at that! I think Ron and Hermione are holding hands. Finally, the yegres seem to have done their job well!" Luna smiled. Neville raised his head in excitement to see the couple and possibly a yegre or two.

"Really, they've known each other since their first year I've been waiting for them to get together since probably their fourth year or so. She and Krum were never good together." Neville said before looking back down.

"Why do you always look at the ground? It's not good to. The skumbies live down there. They suck out your confidence every time you look at them!" Luna said with a strange smile that Neville secretly admired. He looked up into her soft green eyes and smiled.

"That's better now I can actually see you." Luna said. She paused for a moment looking into his darker green eyes. Then she wondered, 'What about their magical trio who brought them together? They couldn't just let them go off on their own into danger like that. They were their army. No,' she thought. 'They were Dumbledore's Army. They were the DA. She wasn't going to abandon them now. What was the point of going back to Hogwarts when it was them that put the meaning into her life for the past two years? Hermione was really nice despite her narrow-mindedness. She'd come to Luna in times of need when stress (usually provoked from Ron) had overwhelmed her. Luna also had gotten better grades, especially a sure 'Outstanding' on her Potions, Transfigurations, and Defense against the Dark Arts O.W.L.S. Ron she honestly didn't like much at all but soon came to like especially after his compliments on her announcing at the Quidditch game. Then there was Harry. He'd put so much effort in being nice to her that she didn't know quite what to think of it. She felt her loyalty to him not only as a friend but as a student. Even though it had been a whole year since any DA lesson he still seemed like a teacher. Possibly the best she'd ever had. She couldn't abandon them.She would follow them to the ends of the world if she had to.' She smiled.

Neville noticed a clever shimmer in her silvery eyes and guessed at her thoughts.

"S-so we're not coming back here next year either are we?" he smiled. Luna nodded and looked up at the huge castle she'd seen as home for the past five years.

"I'm going to miss Hogwarts a-a lot." He said and stood up. The Hogwarts Express was leaving in an hour. He still needed to grab the rest of his stuff. He looked back down at Luna

"Come on," he said while reaching out his hand. Luna took it and, holding hands, they walked back up to the school. Then he realized something. He was going to the Gryffindor common rooms. She wasn't in Gryffindor, that was dumb of him. Once they got to the great hall they parted ways, she said she needed to find the rest of her stuff that she lost anyways and agreed to sit together on the way back.
