First drabble, here we go...

Song: Pocketful of Sunshine by Natasha Bedingfield

Edit (7/4/11): Wow... I listened to crappy music then. Oh well.

Cold. So cold. It was all she thought about, all she knew he despaired about; his fever wasn't any better for the gloomy conditions. He never spoke it, never complained of it as if avoiding the topic entirely would fool the teenage girl with the unusually wide eyes and scraggly waist-length hair, but she knew. The Wrackspurt Luna Lovegood had dubbed Alishaen had told her so. He had become her closest friend in the weeks she had spent in the dungeon. Of course, Ollivander thought her mad, but then, so did most of Hogwarts.

What she wasn't sure about was if he thought her mad for Alishaen or for the trances. She often went into them, intentionally most of the time, but every once in a while, after a session with the Malfoys, she slipped away. Ollivander normally revived her, looking paler than usual and babbling on about how she had been humming and talking to herself, mumbling in a foreign language.

Luna was a lot sharper than most took her for. She knew that if she told him what she saw in her trance state, he would cart her off to the loony bin as soon as they were released from here. So she kept the utopia to herself. The gentle breeze blowing, scars and bruises fading as she sometimes sat in the sun, sometimes flew through the sky, though always with her mother, carefree and lighthearted as she had been in life.

The blonde girl could always hear a river flowing in the distance. It calmed her, allowing her to forget her worries and bask in the warmth provided by her sunny oasis. And sunny it was, never fading into the darkness that dwelled always in the dungeon. Luna hated the dark and the cold. The summer saved her.

And so when she was rescued, let out to see the Earth for the first time in who knows when, she was ecstatic. She rushed out, running into her salvation, savoring the feeling.

The summer's on my side,

I take it for a ride.

I smile into the sky,

And know I'll be alright.
