Ch. 2: Surprise!
A/N: Own Harry Potter, I do not. 'Tis the reason I write fan fiction. Anyways, enjoy!
The threat to Malfoy, although he didn't hear it, was what Ron thought to be his personal best. He followed his friends onto the train, but he was soon distracted.
"Wow. It's amazing how much a person's look can change over two months. Looking good, Weasley." The voice sounded kind of airy and distant. Are my ears playing tricks on me, or did Luna Lovegood just say I looked good? I thought she had a thing for Harry. As Ron turned, preparing a smart remark in his head, he saw her, and froze in his tracks. Oh my God, she looks good! Ron ran inside the compartment and sat down, but he looked very uncomfortable.
"Silly Ron. You think your sister's best friend has a crush on you." The Ravenclaw girl sounded like she was mocking Ron. The Weasley, however, was too embarrassed to even respond. He only blushed tin his face rivaled his hair in redness.
"If you hadn't have said that, I wouldn't be in this predicament. Now, if you'll excuse me…"
"I'm not finished with you just yet, Weasley. I have something to tell you. Everyone thinks I like Harry, but that's just not true. I have my sights set on another older Gryffindor, and he happens to be sitting in this very compartment."
"Wh…me?" he sounded dumbfounded.
"Oh for goodness sake, is anyone else in this compartment? Now come here!"
Ron didn't know what to make of this, so he did the only thing he knew to do: kiss her back. She ran her hands through his flaming red hair, and his hands moved from her waist to her hips and even lower, until…
Harry didn't know what to do anymore. Hermione was extremely distracted since the encounter with Malfoy, and now, he couldn't find Ron. This year is going to be very interesting to say the least.
As he was walking down the train, he saw many familiar Gryffindors. Ginny and Dean were with Seamus and Neville, who seemed to have lost Trevor already. Harry saw the toad, and grabbed him.
"Here you are, Neville." Harry smiled at everyone was said hello, but Ginny seemed different. Her smile seemed brighter.
What was with Ginny, today, I wonder? Oh well, I'll figure that out later. I need to make sure Ron didn't get left at the station.
Harry kept walking and Ginny kept coming back to his mind. He didn't know what to make of it. The boy who lived heard some racket coming from a compartment ahead. The voices began to sound familiar.
"Luna? Are you…..OH MY GOD!" Harry couldn't believe what he saw as he opened to compartment door.
"Oh… Hi, Harry." Luna straightened up and made herself presentable as Ron darted to the other side of the compartment.
"Did I just see what I think I saw? Please tell me my eyes were playing tricks on me!"
"Ok, Harry. I think we'll all believe that." Luna decided to go along with this for now, but she wouldn't be able to hold it in much longer.
