~~~Sorry I feel so bad. I don't own anything.
I heard a small gasp come from the area by the door. I lifted my eye to meet the blue ones already filled with tears. I looked down to the women in my arms and back to Luna but she was already gone.
I pushed Pansy away hard, too hard, but I didn't care.
"Pansy, What the Hell!" she played me against my hormones.
I thought she was Luna come back to continue what we had started but before I had a chance to look she was already on me. What a mess this was.
Pansy looked up with seductive eyes but they had no affect on me. All I could do was think about the tears that I saw in Luna's.
"You didn't seem to mind so much just a minute ago." Pansy replied stepping towards me again.
I quickly side-stepped around her and grabbed my closet shirt.
"You had best be gone before I get back, Pansy, or I won't be so nice."
I grabbed my broom and took off in a run, but before I could get to the door. The golden trio with tag-alongs Neville and the young Weasley.
"Where do you think you are going, Malfoy." The youngest Weasley stepped forward with her arms acrossed her chest, defiance displayed across her freckled face.
"Get out of my way."
I tried to blow past them like I had Pans, but that damned Gryffindor courage would let me bull them over.
"Not so fast Malfoy. You hurt Luna, now it's time to return the favor." As she said this Hermione menacingly pulled out her wand. When the others saw this they followed suit. I was a strong wizard but not against all of them. I didn't have time for this I had to get to Luna and explain!
I pulled out my wand and started toward them.
Hexes were flying past my head. I dodged some and some missed. One of Hermione's clipped my face. I could feel the sting and something wet started dripping down my face.
One I got close enough I sent a smoke screen and during the confusion I escaped around them. I could here them in pursuit but I had home advantage. I sprinted down the stairs, passed my startled parents, and school mates. I kicked off and started off towards Luna's home.
All I could do for the trip was think how stupid I was.
Finally the tall tower of Luna's country home came into view. I could only make out it out in the darkness. All the lights were off except for one in the upper most window. I could make out a girl with longs flowing hair. My heart leapt in my chest! I had found her!
I landed in the front yard. Forgetting my broom I ran to the door and pounded on it. The door flew open. I stepped into the darkness. I could hear soft music coming from the stairs. I hesitantly stepped into the house, feeling sort of like an intruder. I crept up the stairs, following the music. It was piano playing slow harmonious music. The door at the top of the stairs was slightly ajar to reveal Luna. All the light in the room came from candles all around her room. A tiny piano was charmed to play the tune I heard earlier. Luna was sketching by on her window seat totally unaware of my presence. I stood for a moment observing the sight of her. Long blonde hair streaming down her back. Moon light and stars made her hair shine and the candle light shone off of her skin making me want to kiss every inch. She was wearing a white night gown that made her look inviting and innocent. It kept all of my strength to not take her right there.
"Luna" her name came out in a hoarse whisper.
She slowly turned to see me and her eyes narrowed.
"What are you doing here? Your newest conquest too easy?"
I winced at her words.
"Luna, let me explain that was Pansy."
She just looked at me. "Wow, thanks for tell me who it was. Just to let you know that doesn't make me like you."
This was not going well.
"No, she tricked me. I thought she was you. Luna, you are the only one I want to be with. I . . .think. . I love you!"
I couldn't believe what I had just said, but I know I meant it.
The room fell silent except for the soft tinkling of the piano.
Luna slowly rose and made her way over to me. My heart was beating so hard that I thought it would burst.
Luna grabbed my wrist and found my pulse.
"Say it again she whispered.
"Luna, I love you."
She looked up at me. You're not lying.
I would never lie to you Luna.
I bent my head done to her and she met me and our lips met once again. Feeling better than it had ever been.
****
The music continued to play. Luna arm was across my bare chest as we dozed in her bed. The window was a tiny bit. The cold wind blew on us smelling of snow. The candles flickered across the wall and the moon shown down on her.
I was so happy, until she found my dark mark. She looked at it and started stoking it.
"I don't want it." I said trying to explain it.
"I know."
Quiet fell over us again.
What were you sketching? You know, when I walked in?"
"Something that I hated then, but now I love."
I leaned over and picked up the sketch pad. I looked at the picture.
It was me.
I looked at her. She said she loved me.
She smiled again. "That's right. I love you."
