A Malfoy? A Malfoy? Carina was a Malfoy? Charlie sat in his tent that night, looking at the ceiling and attempting to make himself believe what he had heard. Carina talked to Fred and George. She was nice. She was a Ravenclaw. All the Malfoy's had been Slytherins. Fred and George had to be messing with him. They knew he had a semi crush on one of their friends and they wanted to mess with his head. Well, it was certainly working.

After a night of a dream that involved Lucius Malfoy chasing him half way through London, Charlie awoke and headed through the grounds to the castle. He had an appointment to meet with Dumbledore to talk about the first task and he didn't want to be late. As he reached the large, wooden doors a young woman ran out. Carina. Charlie's heart eyes met and Charlie realized where he had seen her eyes before. In his confrontation with Lucius at the Ministry when he had been there to discuss a transfer to Romania. He had looked into those cold eyes and seen nothing but hate and disaprovement. But as he looked into Carina's eyes he felt warm and happy. Like God had sent down a small piece of Heaven.

"Charlie! I didn't expect to see you here. How was your night?"

Charlie didn't talk. His tongue was plastered to the roof of his mouth. He simplying smiled at her. She cocked her head to the side and put her hands on her hips. A smile played at her lips as one side of her mouth slowly moved up. She had a mischivious smile. But a beautiful one all the same.

"You're not going to talk today? I know that I said that I liked guys that didn't talk but this is a little extreme. Now, can you answer my question?"

"You aren't wearing your glasses." Charlie spat out.

That caught Carina off guard. She had been expecting an answer to the 'how was your night' question. Not to have Charlie shoot out a fact.

"They're so I can read. I don't like to wear them." Carina said. She looked down at the ground, her eyes loosing their contact with Charlie's. Before Charlie could help himself, he said, "You have beautiful eyes."

"Thanks. You too." Carina said, reinstating eyes contact. She smiled and then looked down at Hagrids hut. "I'm supposed to meet up with him for morning tea. I'll see you later?"

"Yeah. See you later." Charlie said.

Carina walked down the steps and headed toward the dully lit cabin. She was in Muggle clothes today. Jeans and a shirt that advertised something call 'Guns N Roses'. What that was, Charlie had no idea. He was busy focusing on her as she half walked, half skipped toward her morning tea appointment.

"Stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid!" Charlie muttered to himself on the way to the headmasters office.

He had avoided running into Peeves, he didn't feel like dealing with the poltergist. Not today. Not right now. He had just made a fool of himself infront of Carina. "You have beautiful eyes." That was just creepy. It was something that someone who sat in your bushes at night and watched you sleep would say. Yet, he had said it and now he had to deal with whatever happened. He turned the last corner and saw the stone gargoyle marking the entrance to the headmasters office. He was preparing to say the password when a blonde girl, probably around Ginny's age, skipped toward him.

"You're the other Weasley brother." she said in a sing song voice.

"I know I am." Charlie responded.

"You know, Cari was talking about you last night." she said.

"Cari?" Charlie asked.

The girl giggled. "Carina." she clarified.

Charlie felt himself blush. Carina had been talking about him?

"Who are you?" he asked.

"Luna Lovegood. Carina is in Ravenclaw house with me. We talked last night. She absolutely smitten with you. A little odd, considering the fact that you just met." Luna said.

Smitten? She was smitten?

"She is?" Charlie asked.

"Yes. Now, if you'll excuse me, you have an odd number of Harglesnooks circling your head. I have to go before they get to me." and just like that, Luna skipped down the stairs.

So, now Charlie knew one thing and wondered another. He knew that Carina shared his feelings. He wondered what the hell Harglesnooks were and why they were circling his head.

A/N: Please don't ask what Harglesnooks are. I don't really know. They just fit with Luna.
