Author's note: Hi guys! Some of you may have read my previous works before and know that I have a couple stories still left to complete. I am really sorry about the lack of updates I was swamped with school wrk and my creative side wasn't cooperating with me at all! However while I was on my little writing break from fanfiction, a new story Idea popped in my mind which I hope to share with you. Hope you guys like this one :) I have for the first time placed Draco and Luna as the main characters and yes it is ofcourse AU. Reviews are as always appreciated

Situation Summary: It has been about seven years since Draco Malfoy had graduated from Hogwarts. He lives alone in a quiet muggle neighbourhood. A small residential accident brings him back to St Mugnos Hospital where he finds Luna who is working as a nurse. She sees strange symptoms on him that she cannot place.

Disclaimer: I don't own the characters or original plot of Harry Potter. You all should know the name of the great lady by now haha and Warner Bros too I guess has rights. This is just my story where I borrow some characters and places and make them work my way lol...

Fallen Smile

Chapter one- the first encounter:

Draco Malfoy was not having a good day. Not only did the merlin forsaken blender try to rip his finger apart but here he was waiting for the nurse to check him over at St Mugnos. It was a busy afternoon and due to the shortage of doctors they were currently facing, minor injuries were being treated by nurses. He had been waiting for almost an hour now in the little cooped up room they had placed him in and time was trying his patience.

Fortunately for the incoming nurse, Draco Malfoy was a lot calmer person now than what he used to be at Hogwarts. He mused over his younger self smiling bitterly at the memory of his own father who would always be mentioned at a place where he wasn't given the best treatment. His father. The sole reason for what he had become, the sole reason he chose to hide from the wizarding world for days on end. The sole reason...his thoughts were interrupted by a knock at the door.

"About time," he said without much heat to his words, checking out the nurse from under his hoodie. He had learnt to dress like a muggle over the years of living with them. She looked oddly familiar. There was something strange about her eyes that seemed like she could see right through him. She had her blond hair tied in a loose ponytail. 'Was she an ex Hogwart's student?' he wondered, pulling his hoodie more to cover his pale face and his trade mark blond hair at the thought.

"Hello Draco Malfoy, I am your nurse Loona Lovegood" said the nurse smiling in a mysterious way that made him wonder how much she knew. She wasn't displaying any signs of fear that was usual for people he encountered in his true form. Her odd way of greeting him made him want to smile, but he controlled the gesture by pursing his lips tightly together. He nodded in acknowledgment, Luna Lovegood, yes he was certain now she was a Hogwarts student. However that was as far as his memory would let him go.

She started performing various spells for basic health check on him, all the while humming this odd tune under her breath. After the last spell she had performed, she gave him the oddest look of wonder, puzzlement and curiousity, however did not ask any questions.

" I have healed your finger. It was a minor fracture," she said smiling at him.

" Thanks," he said, getting up to summon his coat.

"Anytime," she said still smiling and looking at him with those mysterious eyes. She turned to leave as well, but right before she grabbed for the door handle, Malfoy asked, " were you at Hogwarts?"

" Yes I was and I know you were as well, I was a year younger to you and Harry," she replied.

At Potter's name he looked at the girl more carefully. Loona Lovegood...She was Looney Lovegood the daughter of Quibler's editor. He smiled inwardly at the irony of the situation, the characters he had made fun of in her magazine were characters who he now closely associated with. However he kept this fact to himself.

" O yea, I remember now," he said looking a little uncomfortable remembering the horrible things that were done to her by his younger self. " I am sorry about how I acted towards you in school. I was very foolish."

She was still looking at him throughout the entire conversation, and at this her eyes widened a little. She laughed lightly and shook her head. " You didn't know yourself then," she added softly. " You have changed Draco Malfoy," she said pausing a bit as though to collect her thoughts, her eyes penetrating his mind. " You have changed, both mentally and physically. I can sense it, but I like it. I always knew there was more to you than what met the eye. And then you helped out in the war," she finished, smiling again after her little reminiscence.

His eyes hardened at her last words. He wasn't regretful of his decision to help Potter's side but it was the war that had brought him the change. The creatures...No she didn't know what she was talking about. He had changed but it was something he would rather not have. And it definitely wasn't good.

" Don't assume things you don't know," he said coldly to the woman standing across from him and apparated.

Luna shook her head still pondering over Malfoy. She smiled , his harsh words in the end couldn't deter his image for her from what she had seen inside him that day. Draco Malfoy had managed to get a conscience bigger than anyone she had known, except perhaps Harry's which was about the same and his denial of it would never let him live in peace. She also wondered the strange signs she had noticed, making a mental note to grab an old copy of the quibler from her shelf for reference.

Please Review:) Next chap coming soon
