Oh do settle down Luna, he's had a loss.

"Hello." I said to him even though it was obvious that hen was trying to avoid me.

"How come you're not at the feast?" He asked. Geez he is stupid. shut up Luna, and don't be so cruel.

"Well I've lost all my possessions. People them and hide them you know. But as it's the last night, I really do need them back, so I've been putting up signs."

I showed him the notice and saw that for the first time I saw that he pitied me. He felt sorry for me, even after his godfather died. He is a true Gryffindor.

"How come people hide your stuff?" He asked, frowning. Didn't he know that I was the freak of the school?

"Oh.well." I was going to say that I was the insane girl sent for other people's enjoyment but I knew that would sound stupid.

"I think they think I'm a bit odd, you know. Some people call me 'Loony' Lovegood actually".

Wow his eyes are almost bursting from pity. He hardly knows me but I can see that he cares about me.

"That's no reason for them to take your things. D'you want help finding them?"

I smiled at him, he does care!

"Oh no they'll come back, they always do in the end. It was just that I wanted to pack tonight. Anyway.why weren't you at the feast?"

"Just didn't feel like it."

"No," I saw that now, he wanted to be alone; I guess he needed time to think, "I don't suppose you do. That man he Death Eaters killed was godfather, wasn't he? Ginny told me."

He nodded

"Have you.I mean who.," His loss must make it difficult for him to speak. "Has anyone you known ever died?"

"Yes, my mother. She was quite extraordinary witch and one of her spells went rather badly wrong one day, I was nine."

"I'm sorry"

It wasn't his fault, why was he apologizing?

"Yes, it was rather horrible, I still feel very sad about it sometimes. But I've still got Dad. And anyway, it's not as though I'm never going to see her again."

"Er- isn't it?" He must be joking. He was there with me!

"Oh, come on. You heard them, just behind the veil, didn't you?"

I saw his sadness lessen. I could see that he wasn't sure whether I was kidding or not but he heard them too. I smiled. I enjoyed this feeling you get when you cheer someone up.

"Are you sure you don't want me to help look for your stuff?"

"Oh, no, no, I think I'll just go down and have some pudding and wait for it all to turn up.it always does in the end.well have a good holiday Harry."

I felt his eyes staring at me as I went. I smiled to myself again. He wasn't that bad really.
