"ow.." she gasped, and held onto her ankle as he crouched down beside her.
"im..im so sorry..." he rummaged in his bag for his wand "are you okay? here...let me fix that for you..." he took hold of her ankle. His pale, ice cold hands sent a shock through her leg as he healed the fractured ankle.
"T-thank you...er..my name is Luna..Lovegood.." She stuttered and whispered to herself "stop blooming stuttering!"
"well,er...its nice to meet you Luna! I'm Draco Malfoy" He smiled. It was one of those smiles that was contagious, but he was a Malfoy...he shouldn't even be talking to a weirdo like her.
"A bit of advice, Lovegood, Stay away from Granger and Potter, and your okay. They are both Freaks of nature that you should avoid...put it this way, bad things happen to people like them" And after that, he was gone.
She got up and took a seat in one of the empty parts and watched outside the window as the train made its way to Hogwarts.
/*after a few hours*
When the train finally stopped, it was dark outside. The wind brushed through her hair and a shiver traveled down her back. She was being watched, she was sure. Not by a child or professor..but someone else, to the left of her hiding in the trees. She carried on walking, but at a much faster pace now, and made her way up the concrete steps and into the school. Safe, for now.
"come on you first years, walk faster!" she turned to see the prefect waiting for her, an annoyed expression on his face. She walked to the top of the hall and joined the rest of her year. Professor McGonagall called out the names of the students individually, but there was only one name she payed attention to. Draco Malfoy.
As he sat on the old, red wood chair, the professor placed a hat on his head, you could tell by the expression on his face that she had just messed up his hair. She giggled and listened to the hat.
"hmmm...not a tricky decision really. Such a mysterious boy, family of pure blooded slytherins...maybe we should stir things up eh'? no..you don't have the will power to be in the others..hmm..its either Gryffindor..or Slytherin im afraid...go on then boy! SLYTHERIN!" The boy rose from his seat and rushed to join his table and sat there quietly.
"Luna Lovegood!" The professor shouted.
Oh no. She bit her lip and sat on the chair..she wanted to be in slytherin so bad..but it wasn't meant to be. She knew where she belonged. In Ravenclaw, but she couldn't stop thinking about him...Draco. Why was this happening to her? She started to get worried. The hat hadn't spoken for about five minutes.
"Slytherin!" It shouted, it took a while for the information to sink in, but she stood up and took her seat beside him, not saying a word.
After all the students had been housed the headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, stood up to give a speech. And he did, 30 minutes long, whilst he was speaking her and Draco couldn't help but laugh at the old man, he must have been about 85 years old, and his beard showed that.
"..and just remember, Hogwarts will always be here to welcome you home" Dumbledore had finally finished his speech and dismissed them all house by house, and they made our way to their dorms.
