"What did I just do?" thought Ron, "Is being angry with her any better?"
Ron had been kicking himself in the pants for the past five minutes.
"Something bothering you?" asked a girl with long straggly dirty-blond hair wearing a butterbeer cap necklace, her wand tucked behind her ear for safekeeping.
"You think?" blurted Ron before realizing that he was talking to a stranger.
"You want to talk about it?" offered the girl.
"Who are you?" asked Ron.
"I could ask you the same," answered the girl eyeing Ron with intrigue.
"Yes," admitted Ron," but I asked you first."
"Luna Lovegood," she answered.
"Loony Lovegood?" thought aloud Ron.
"If that's what you wish to call me," airily responded Luna
"Oh, no! Sorry, I didn't mean it that way!" started Ron getting embarrassed.
Luna smiled a bit at Ron's awkwardness. "It's alright," she offered, "I'm used to that type of thing."
"But really I didn't mean…"
"You never told me your name," interrupted Luna putting an end to Ron's awkwardness.
"Ron Wesley."
"You must be one of Ginny's brothers?"
"How do you…" started Ron.
"We're in the same year and have Astronomy together."
At that the bell rang. "Well got to go, Charms, you know," uncomfortably explained Ron leaving a staring Luna behind.
"Wow, so that was Loony Lovegood. She's pretty nice and almost…" started Ron but broke of his thoughts realizing how foolish what he was about to think was.
A/N: Ok, I know this is terribly short, and I apologize but the next chapter is back with Hermione.
