Solutions and Problems

Luna sought out Ginny on Monday. She hadn't seen Neville since Sunday morning, and she had the distinct impression that he was avoiding her, as she told Ginny in Herbology. "It's almost like he knew what I was about to say, and he said it for me."

"So, find him and tell him that."

"But he's been avoiding me, I can tell."

"He wouldn't have said that if he didn't want to see you."

"How am I going to find him? We're in different houses and different years."

Ginny thought for a second, then came up with what was, in her mind, the perfect solution. "Saturday morning, before the sun comes up, go out to the tree where you two were talking on Sunday and watch the sunrise. He'll be there."

"But what if he tries to leave again?"

"I don't know. Think of something."

"Well, if someone else was there with us…"

"Please don't tell me you're thinking what I think you're thinking."

"Come with, please, just in case he leaves again!"

"Luna, no, I couldn't! It's too personal. I can't just sit there next to you like that!"

"Well, what if you weren't alone…"

"What do you mean by that?"

"Say you were with someone, too. Then it wouldn't be too weird."

"One problem. Who would I sit with?"

"I'll come up with something. Who do you want to sit with? I can arrange anything you want, just tell me who."

"Luna, I don't really care. I don't really want to be there. But I'll come. Find someone to go with, and I'll come."
