Disclaimer: Honestly, I don't own Harry Potter.

A/n: I know that all my chapters were really short, and I'm really trying to make them longer. But, this is my first fanfic, so give me a break. Oh, and for all you people that don't own a single Beatles CD, I suggest that you get up and go to the nearest Target or whatever and get one. I recommend the CD: 'The Beatles 1' for those of you who don't have a Beatles CD yet. Well, anyway, here's the next chapter.

Chapter Eight: The Walk

Padma's POV

I'm waiting in front of the Great Hall for Luna because on Sundays we usually take a walk around Hogwarts at 8:30 PM this has been a routine for about, oh, 5 years. I had a feeling that Luna was a bit mad at me for moving into Head's Quarter's. I was just thinking of going on the walk by myself if she didn't show up soon, when she dreamily walked up to me.

"Ready to go?"I asked

"I suppose." We started walking up the steps to the Grand Staircase.

"So, are you angry at me? I mean, for moving. Because, if you are, I understand."

"To be honest, a little. I mean, you're my only friend. I like having you around." She said, dazed.

"Really? Honestly, you have every reason to be mad at me. I like having you around as well, but I just…I dunno. I suppose I was being stupid." We walked in silence for a moment. Luna stopped abruptly. She turned me to face her, placing her hands on my shoulders. She spoke,

"It's fine, really. I understand," she gave a sort-of dazed smile and continued. "I want to know how things are going anyway." She gave me that smile that I noticed her use only once before, when she told me she had liked Harry for a while. Once I saw her use that smile I knew instantly what she was talking about.

About an hour and a half later, we were rounding a corner and some ghost, went right through her. She gasped. Luna felt as though she was being suffocated under icy water.

"So sorry. I didn't see you. Well, see you later." And he drifted off along the corridor behind us. I was really surprised with Luna's reaction. Her protuberant eyes went icy.

"Ergh. I hate it when ghosts do that. It makes me feel that I'm being drowned or something."

"I know exactly how you feel," I looked around. "Here, I'll walk you back to your common room.

About five minutes later we entered the common room and I took Luna into the dormitory. "You need rest." I told her. She got herself comfortable underneath her bed frame and said,

"Good night. I'll see you during classes tomorrow."

"Good night." I stated, and I headed out to Head's Quarters.

I arrived in my common room and didn't see Ron, so I decided to go to sleep. I quickly changed in to my jimjams and plopped into bed. I was just drifting to sleep when,

BOOM.

I guess Ron had just slammed the door. I heard footsteps coming in the direction of my room. Ron came bursting in. He sat down on my bed right by me and said,

"Padma? You awake?"

"I am now." I said groggily.

"Well, another person's gone ice cold and in a coma." There was dead silence.

A/n: Dun dun dun! I hoped you liked this chapter and I left it a cliffe to keep you guys hanging. And I'm going to keep you hanging until I get 16 reviews for this story all together. Sorry to be mean, but I'd really like more reviews. So, if you want another chapter, I suggest you review. The maximum time I'll make you wait for another chapter if I don't get 16 reviews is about one or two weeks.

Oh, and p.s. GO GET A BEATLES CD NOW! See you next chapter.
