Draco just couldn't help himself. He had to go back to see Ginny and Luna again. It was almost like an addiction, but he was finding himself no longer insulting them in the hall when he passed. He had made fun of Ginny for years; she was poor, she had a stupid little crush on Harry sodding Potter, and she was a Weasley. Plus, she was in Gryffindor. He had to make fun of her for that.
Luna, she was a Ravenclaw, and he usually only made fun of them when provoked, but Luna was special. She wore vegetables as earrings! She made necklaces from Butterbeer Bottle caps. She read the Quibbler! What other reason did Draco need?
But Ginny was no longer poor, and she was definitely over Harry. Now that he had slept with Pavarti Patil from Gryffindor, he couldn't poke fun of Ginny based on her house alone. Most depressing; the Weasley's were now considered a fairly respectable family in the ministry because of Mr. Weasley's promotion, Percy Weasley's promotion (though apparently he wasn't talking to his family) and due to Mrs. Weasley's new, successful business.
Draco couldn't make fun of Luna anymore because the butterbeer bottle cap necklace is the latest trend in the Wizarding world, and she had started the craze. Moreover, the Quibbler was doing very well and she now owned the paper because of her father's death.
Luckily, none of the Slytherins noticed this change in Draco; perhaps it was because he made fun of Harry, Ron, and Hermione more than ever.
It was now Thursday, a week since he first came into realization about Ginny and Luna, and they were coming back to the Astronomy tower; and Draco was waiting for them under his invisibility cloak once again.
Ginny arrived a minute before Luna. She looked directly at Draco again and he almost said something. He was sure she could see him!
When Luna arrived they sat down together and talked in whispers that Draco could not hear; though he tried very hard.
After a while Luna convinced Ginny of something, though Ginny seemed hesitant.
Luna moved Ginny's hair back out of her face as stroked it slightly.
