Ron cursed himself for what he said to Luna. He knew he shouldn't have said it but he couldn't help it. His temper always got the best of him. He knew Luna wasn't a bitch. He knew she didn't butt in everyone's business and that she was right about what Ginny and Hermione. He only paid attention to Harry.
He sighed. Why was he such an idiot? He continued to clean. He heard a noise and quickly started to panic. Why did Professor Mickalo take is wand. He tightened his grip on the mop.
"Whose there?" he said shakily.
"Ron. It's me. Luna." she said and came into the view.
"God, Luna. You scared me. Why are you here?" he asked. Loosing the grip on the mop.
"We came to help you. Kalen is somewhere. I kinda lost him. And to say sorry for what I said to you earlier. It was uncalled for and I am sorry." she said and hung her head low. Ron felt really bad.
"It's not your fault. It's mine. I'm the one who should be sorry. You were just saying how you felt. And you were right. I do only pay attention to Harry. I am sorry for calling you a bitch. You're not a bitch." he said. Luna looked up at him and smiled.
"Thank you for apologizing. I appreciate it." she said. Ron smiled at her and started mopping again.
"So, um, what is your band called?" he asked her.
"We haven't decided yet. We really haven't talked about it yet. We need to though." she said and helped him mop. He nodded and they were in silence for what seemed like hours.
"Luna, can I ask you something?" he asked he breaking the silence.
"Yeah. Go ahead." she said.
"Why have you changed your look over the summer?" he asked. She thought this was a strange question.
"I wanted a new look. That's kinda a weird question to ask." she said.
"Sorry." he said.
"No don't be sorry. I just said it was a weird question. Everyone asks weird questions sometimes." she said. She smiled he smiled back.
They spent the next 3 hours cleaning the castle, talking, and laughing. They liked spending time together and when they finished the first half of the castle they were sad to see it end.
"Well you finished your first detention." she said putting the supplies in the closet.
"Yeah. Too bad I have another week of it. Cleaning the rest of the castle. So fun." he said sarcastically. She smiled. They finished putting away the spplies and started walking to their dorm rooms.
"Let me walk you to your portrait hole." he said and she nodded. They walked in silence until they got to her portrait hole.
"Thanks." she said. He nodded. They just stood there for a second. He wanted to make a move but he was too shy. Luna walked over to him and kissed him on the lips. It was a quick kiss but it was wonderful. The best kiss ever.
