Author's Note: WHOA!!! Finally, Chap 4 is up. Sorry for the delay. I've got writers' block while writing Secretly In Love(apparently all the characters hate me now) and decided to concentrate more on my fictionpress account(the link is on my profile if you're interested) instead. Hope you enjoy this:)
Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or any other characters. Once again, if I were J.K. Rowling, the title would not be Harry Potter because I am somehow biased towards male chracters.
Luna's POV
Ginny seemed distracted lately. Naturally, I tried to cheer her up, but to no avail. The last time I told her that twirly-swirlies were in the air, she practically bawled.
"No, no, you're mistaken. Twirly-swirlies promote love, it's swirly-burlies you've gotta look out for."
That annoyed her. Greatly.
"Can you just zip it? You and your nonsense are nothing but trouble."
Ouch. Why do people never accept my theories that human beings are governed by the nature of those very things that only few can see? Muggles do it all the time; they believe in gods. They cannot see these gods, but they believe in them. So why can't my fellow wizards and witches believe in the likes of creatures controlling them? The Ministry of Magic must have brainwashed them. Yes.
Ok, enough of my brainwashing theory. Back to Ginny. I think that she was thinking about how Hermione, and the rest of the Gryffindor house, hated her so much for letting a Ravenclaw into the Gryffindor common room. And she probably blamed it on me, considering that I was supposed to be trying to help Ginny gain Hermione's love for her.
Oh wait, I have been too longwinded again. Ginny was currently running off, tears streaming down her pale freckled cheeks. I ran after her, desperately trying to catch up.
My fingers brushed against Ginny's damp face when I tried to stop her from running away from me. It was a small gesture, something that I felt only towards the end of the encounter. Still, Ginny felt it.
She slowed down.
"Ginny, you don't have to be upset. You can always patch up with Hermione and the rest of the Gryffindors. It's not the end of the world, at least not till the great Core Dragon comes out of the earth."
Ginny smiled weakly.
"You're weird, Luna."
My eyes went dreamy as the corners of my mouth lifted.
"Of course, I take pride in being weird."
The sound of Ginny's laughter was enough of a reward for me
"Ginny, did anyone tell you how lovely your laughter is?"
"Huh? You said something?"
I just kept smiling.
Pls review:)
