-A/N- You guys! So I know I'm going to sound like an idiot, and yes you may completely call me out on it, but I just realized I've gotten over TWO THOUSAND friggen views! I totally would have been thanking you guys for taking an interest much sooner had I actually ever noticed the small little note telling me how many times the story has been read (I.E. why I'm an idiot) People are always saying thanks for reading in their authors notes and I never even gave it much thought because I kinda figured this was a ship not to many people were interested in but WOW! I know I may be over exaggerating, but this is so big to me, it makes me feel like my story is actually good. I'm an extremely overly shy individual so for me to even try and put something out there is a huge deal in my books. I'm just...so overwhelmed by the love guys! Virtual hugs for everyone! Anyways, sorry for the long long long A/N I just wanted you to know how much I appreciated TWO THOUSAND views!
As always, with lots, and lots of love!
-Laken
Luna rolled over bumping her nose on the wall.
Why was she so close to the wall? She always slept in the middle of the bed.
She opened her eyes and noticed she was asleep on a couch with her nose pressed into the back of it.
Why was she on a couch?
Looking around she realized she was still at Draco's house.
She must have fallen asleep while tending to him last night.
She glanced around the room quickly looking for signs of her sickly boyfriend, but she couldn't find him.
Suddenly a heavenly smell hit her nose and she knew exactly where he was.
Walking into the kitchen she smiled when she laid eyes on a busy Draco fixing breakfast.
Draco turned to face her as she walked into the kitchen and smiled when he met her eyes.
"Feeling better I see." She mummbled still not fully awake yet.
He nodded as he set a hot cup of coffee down in front of her causing her to smile appreciatively.
"How did you sleep?" He peeked over his shoulder looking at her tired eyes.
"It was pleasant I suppose." She began sipping on her coffee, but grimacing when it burned the tip of her tongue.
He chuckled as he sat a plate of waffles in front of her, covered in whipped cream and strawberries with syrup on the side.
Her favorite breakfast!
Setting her still too hot coffee aside, she dug in happily as Draco sat across from her with his coffee and plain waffles, smearing syrup all over them.
They sat in silence as they ate their meal, and it baffled Luna, usually sitting in silence bothered her but with Draco it wasn't an issue, she even sometimes enjoyed their amicable silence.
Draco sat flipping through his morning paper, having already handed Luna the editorials he knew she would want to read, the room was still silent until she spoke up.
"I had a dream last night."
He froze in his seat. Please don't let her say it first.
"Did you?" He cocked his head to the side.
"Mhmm," she nodded. "Would you like to hear about it?"
Her voice had gone slightly lower and he looked up meeting her eyes which were clouded over with lust.
Who knew waffles were an aphrodisiac?
Draco nodded unable to speak.
She smiled at him then, knowing she had his full attention now.
"Well, it started out on the couch, but the interesting part begins when we headed into the bedr-"
Suddenly an owl flew through the open window and dropped a package in front of Draco snapping him out of the trance the young witch had put him in.
Luna pouted as he began to open the package completely distracted from her story now.
He pulled out a light blue sundress and Luna scrunched her brow.
"It's for you." He laughed looking over at her expression.
He handed her the dress and she took in the fine stitch-work, the soft silky material, and the beautiful design faintly printed on it.
It was beautiful.
"Oh thank you Draco, I do love it!" She gushed happily.
"Good," he smiled, "now go change, I have something to show you."
When she came back into the kitchen he was watching her with a smirk as he took in how beautiful she looked in the dress he had had made for her.
When he had called his mother early this morning asking for the dress, she said it was impossible to make a dress in only a few hours.
He told her he knew she could accomplish the impossible and had a dress Luna once left over delivered to her right away so she would have the correct measurements.
As she strolled over to him he swore he saw a soft glow around her, but that was no surprise, he knew she was a goddess in disguise.
He smiled and leaned down, capturing her lips with his, she wrapped her arms around his neck and he quickly wrapped his around her waist picking her up.
Luna squeaked and he laughed at the mousey sound.
She loved his laugh, it was her favorite thing about him, he looked so much like the young man he was when he laughed.
She couldn't help leaning in and kissing him again as he held her up.
With her lips pressed against his, she ran her tongue over his bottom lip and he opened happily for her. She explored his mouth enjoying the taste of the sweet syrup left behind from breakfast.
When she drew his bottom lip into her mouth sucking on it gently he groaned in appreciation.
Before she knew what was happening Draco had spun them around setting her down gently on the counter before pressing against her hard and taking control of the kiss.
His tongue was hot in her mouth, canvasing every inch like he was trying to remember it, one of his hands wound its way through her long loose hair, as the other made its way up her leg, pulling the dress up with it.
Luna let out a long moan when his hand stopped at her hip, slipping his thumb under the waist of her underwear and circling the skin under it.
He was setting her skin on fire, and he was enjoying it.
She couldn't breathe but she was to afraid to pull back, afraid it may ruin the moment.
When he nipped her lip and groaned into her mouth her mind blanked, she felt herself scooting to the edge of the counter, wrapping her legs around his waist, losing the support of the counter and having it replaced with his hands.
She wrapped her arms around his neck running her fingers through his hair and grabbing a handful, tugging gently, he squeezed her arse in response and without knowing what she was doing Luna ground her hips against Draco's.
A lump pressed into her center and sent fire through her veins. She pulled away from his kiss leaning her head back and moaning as she made the same movement against him again.
Unfortunately, when she pulled away, he was given the chance to breathe and return the flow of oxygen to his brain. He realized what he was doing and he grabbed her hips, halting her grinding and her pleasure at the simultaneously.
She locked eyes with him instantly, a pout forming on her lips as they held each others eyes both panting trying to get as much oxygen into their lungs as possible.
His hand ran through her hair again fixing where he had mussed it up.
NO!
She didn't want it fixed, she wanted it in shambles, messy, knotted, sprayed all over the sheets on his bed!
"Why did you stop?" she couldn't hide the disappointment in her voice.
"We have somewhere important to go today." He said in a gruff voice. Oh, she could hear his need and it was driving her mad to know he wanted her so terribly. "We will finish this later." He promised with another kiss to her neck.
"We can finish it now." She grind her core against his taught jeans again.
Draco groaned and grabbed her hips again.
He looked at her and his bight blue eyes were almost onyx.
She knew he needed her as badly as she needed him, could their plans not wait twenty more minutes?
He grabbed her legs untangling them and setting her down gently on her own jelly legs.
Apparently not.
Dammit.
She straightened her dress and ran her fingers through her hair making it lay back down.
"Well, lets be going, the sooner we leave, the sooner we will get back!" She grabbed his arm tugging him out the door. He could only laugh at her enthusiasm, although he doubted she would be thinking of sex once they reached their destination.
When the fog from their apparition cleared and Luna could make sense of her surroundings she was met with a large empty field.
She looked over to Draco confused, but all she found was a happy smile.
"What is this?"
He grabbed her hand and pulled her over to a small blanket he had put out on the ground with a bottle of wine and two glasses.
It was a beautiful day with a warm breeze and lots of sunshine.
She smiled as she sat down and he sat next to her still holding her hand.
"Where are we Draco?" At this point his smiled had spread to her face. Luna couldn't help but smile when people around her were so obviously happy. I was contagious.
"I purchased some land." Her head cocked to the side then looked back out to the field again.
"This land?" He nodded looking out at the expansive field full of tall grass and wildflowers.
"Why?" Luna couldn't understand what he would want with so much room.
"To build a house on." He made it sound as if it should be obvious.
She nodded her head and kept her gaze out in the open.
"Luna, I really enjoy the time we spend together, and I truly hope it continues. I think I've found in you the person who brings out the best in me, you make me happy, you make me whole. I brought you here because I wanted you to see the place where I hope we will someday build a house and a life together. A place to raise a family, to spend our elderly years together. To always love one another."
Luna looked at him with a smile that could dull the sun in comparison. That was the most wonderful thing she had ever heard come from the young wizards mouth.
She leaned in to kiss him but he paused just before their lips met.
"Luna Lovegood, I love you."
He leaned in closing their lips together then, stopping her reply.
When they parted she continued giving him little pecks, not wanting their moment to be over.
He began smiling again as her lips continuously met his.
"I." Peck. "Love." Peck. "You." Peck "So so much." She pressed against him giving him another long slow kiss.
When they parted this time they pulled away slowly. She leaned over laying her head on his shoulder and he smiled resting his head on top of hers.
They sat like that, staring at the land in front of them, Draco talking about plans for how the house would be built, Luna gushing over the decorations and designs.
They both blushed when talking about how many bedrooms they should have.
Draco would lean in randomly and whisper how much he loved her into her ear, and Luna would kiss him with everything she had in her.
After a few hours of sitting and drinking and enjoying each others company the sun was high in the sky.
Luna sighed and looked up to Draco as he looked down meeting her eyes.
"I should really go check in on the magazine, I disappeared yesterday after hardly getting any work done."
Draco nodded in agreement, "I should go by the bank and check in, I was out all day yesterday thanks to that bug."
He stood up and held out his hand helping her to her feet.
When they were stood in front of each other he wrapped his arms around her small waist and hers came up naturally around his shoulders. He leaned in pecking her lips and smirked, "I love you."
"I know," She smirked back, "you've only told me a hundred times today."
He poked her in the side and she laughed, "Okay, okay, I love you too." She giggled out.
"That's more like it." He leaned in kissing her again then stepped back, winking, he apparated away and she sighed.
She really did love that man.
With that she thought about her own home and when she opened her eyes, there she was.
When Luna walked through the front door her father and Rolf were staring hard at an article. Luna stepped up behind them glancing over their shoulder to get a good look at it.
Someone had anonymously given a tip that there may be something weird going on with the ministry again.
Luna recognized Harry's terrible handwriting immediately.
"Oh dear." Luna sighed.
Both men jumped up spinning on her and Luna stepped back afraid they may fling a hex at her unknowingly.
Xenophilius grabbed at his chest. "Don't scare an old man like that! You could have sent me to an early grave!" Luna Chuckled and looked over to her partner standing beside her father pale as a ghost. "Old man my bloody balls, Don't scare a young man like that either." Rolf glared.
"Spoken like a true poet Rolf." She teased.
Reaching over both men she grabbed the parchment and turned on her heels.
"Where are you going?" her father called. "You just got home."
She pulled on her cloak as she opened the door.
"I need to see a certain auror, I think he may have some news for me!"
She didn't want to get Harry in trouble at work, so instead she decided to pay a visit to his lovely wife and wait for him to get home.
When Luna arrived at the Potters she smiled at their quaint little home. It always looked so welcoming.
The front door was sitting open and Luna stuck her head in calling for Ginny.
"Hello? Gin? You home?"
Ginny came walking out of the kitchen wiping her hands on a dish towel.
"Luna!" she smiled walking over to her friend.
Luna returned her smile as she was welcomed into the house.
"To what do I owe the occasion? Is the poor ferret still not doing well?"
Luna gave her a look to tell her to be nice. One Ginny had become very accustomed to when they were still in school.
Luna pulled the note out of her pocket and handed it over. "I believe this came from Harry."
Ginny leaned in taking in the terrible scratch that belonged to her husband. Nodding she laughed. "He really should have just signed it, as terrible as his hand writing is it's no question who it belongs to."
Luna nodded in agreement, her thoughts exactly.
Ginny rubbed at her stomach absentminded as her brow furrowed.
"I wonder why he hasn't mentioned anything." It was a rhetorical question but Luna shrugged nonetheless.
They sat for a moment in silence just thinking until Ginny shook her head. "Well no use sitting around trying to guess, we'll know when Harry gets home."
She stood then walking back into the kitchen and Luna stood following behind her.
"So you didn't mention if he was doing any better." Ginny arched a prefect auburn brow at Luna
"Oh he was in perfect health this morning, he even made me breakfast and took me out on a small date." She smiled shyly.
"I remember when I used to smile like that after Harry and my dates. " Ginny replied elbowing Luna in the shoulder.
A blush formed on her cheeks, "He told me he loved me this morning." She admitted. Trying to change the subject.
"'Bout time," Ginny replied as she stuffed a blueberry in her mouth.
It was then that Luna realized she was making blueberry muffins and she reached over the counter grabbing a handful of the berries for herself.
"Is that all that happened? You certainly were smiling a lot over just an I love you." she prodded.
Luna's grin grew, "Oh Ginny it isn't even like that."
Both of her eyebrows rose at that statement, "You guys haven't had sex yet?"
And to think Draco was always commenting on how Luna had no tact when it came to blurting out what she was thinking.
"You say that like it's a strange phenomenon." Luna blushed again.
"Just, from the way Parkinson always talked in school, I thought Draco was some sex crazed love god."
Luna's eyes grew wide, "He slept with Pansy?"
Ginny shrugged, "I can't be certain, but by the way she talked they did. Often."
She looked at the shock on Luna's face and quickly tried to fix her mistake. "But you know how Parkinson is, she'd lie about her own son's name if it got her in good with the right people. Draco was just a way for her to get in good with the right people. Draco knew that, it's why he stopped associating with her in the first place."
Ginny hopped she hadn't scared her best friend. She just assumed Luna would have realized Draco wasn't a... well you know.
"I never really wondered if he had ever slept with someone, it didn't occur to me to ask." Luna looked down embarrassed.
"Oh Lu! Is it really so bad if he isn't? I wasn't a virgin when Harry and I got together and he loved me all the same. Does it really change anything?" She looked at Luna slightly hurt that something so simple could change her opinion about someone. She knew Lu wasn't judgmental like that. At least she thought she did.
"Of course not, I just hope he doesn't look at me like I'm some kind of damaged goods that no one wanted because my virginity is still in tact."
Ginny hugged Luna sighing deeply.
Of course Luna would think there was something wrong with her, not the other person.
"You aren't damaged goods Lu, you're special. Not many people wait for the person they really truly love."
Luna nodded trying to push the thought to the back of her mind, but she knew it was something she would have to ask Draco about before they had a repeat of this morning. She wanted her fist time to be special, and she knew Draco would make it that way; he just had to know it was, in fact, her first time.
There was a loud clap outside and the girls turned in unison to see the door open.
Harry stepped inside, looking around to find his wife, he smiled when he spotted their guest standing beside her.
"I knew you'd know it was me." He laughed. "The whit of a Ravenclaw."
