IS IT REAL

Chapter One

Because I Love You

"No, No" screamed Harry as he awoke from yet another nightmare. Ever since Dumbledore died he kept dreaming that Voldemort was standing over him except for tonight. Instead he saw Luna about to suffer the way Dumbledore, his parents, and so many other innocent people had and he couldn't bear the thought of losing her. He had never really thought of Luna as anything more than a friend right?

I need to talk to Luna thought Harry. He got out of bed and found a piece of parchment and a quill.

Dear Luna,

I know that this may seem like a weird request but is there any way you could meet me at Diagon Alley on Friday. I need to talk to you about something very important. Please reply with Hedwig.

Love,

Harry

He quickly took Hedwig out of her cage and tied the note to her leg. "Get this to Luna quickly" and Hedwig flew off into to the dark night. He sat down on his bed trying to remember what he had felt for Cho and Ginny but the feeling wasn't the same with Luna. Cho and Ginny were small loves but Luna seemed like she was something more. He lay down thinking that over and over and fell into a very uneasy sleep.

The next morning he awoke to the sound of tapping at his window. He looked at his clock and saw that it was 10:00 in the afternoon. He opened the window and Hedwig flew in. "That was quick" he said amazed that Hedwig was already home from delivering the message. He untied the message from Hedwig's leg and opened it quickly.

Dear Harry,

I can make it Friday. Meet me in front of The Magical Menagerie at eleven. I need to talk to you too. I am currently in London so when you come you can stay with me and my dad. I'll see you then.

Love,

Luna

"No wonder it was such a quick delivery" he said aloud. He went downstairs to see Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon and remembered that he had neglected to tell them he was going to Diagon Alley on Friday. He knew they wouldn't let him go since they hated anything that he would ever want to do. But I HAVE to go Friday he thought.

Thursday night came quickly. He had all his things packed now all he had to do was make sure that no one heard him leave the house. He pulled his invisibility cloak out form under his pillow and took out his Firebolt. He quietly tied the truck to the broomstick and used a charm to make sure it wouldn't fall off and to lighten the load. He let Hedwig out of her cage and said" Meet me in London" and she took off. He put the invisibility over him and he picked up his broomstick and flew after Hedwig.

After flying for hours, he finally reached London. He landed outside of the Leaky Cauldron and made sure there were no muggles around. When he was sure the coast was clear, he took off the invisibility cloak and untied his trunk from his broom. He opened the door and went into the Leaky Cauldron.

He saw Tom cleaning up to go to bed. "Tom, do you have any rooms available?" he asked loudly. "Wha… Harry! Why yes I do. What you doing here in the middle of the night? Never mind. Follow me". He walked up the staircase and showed Harry to a small room. "Goodnight Tom." Harry said. He put his trunk at the foot of the bed and closed the door. He fell on top of the bed and immediately went into a sound sleep.

He woke at ten the next morning and hurried down into Diagon Alley. He bought an apple from a witch that was sitting next to Gringotts and he headed towards The Magical Menagerie. He saw Luna sitting outside of the store wearing a black skirt and a blue tank top. "Harry!" she called when she saw him.

She ran to him and gave him a hug then she took his arm and motioned him to sit down. "So… you said you needed to talk to me" she said. "Yeah…umm. Well I have been having these dreams about Voldemort. And well you were sort of in one." He said quietly. "You've been in my dreams too" she said quietly in his ear.

He looked at her and said" What does it mean then?". " I don't know." She said quietly to herself. "Luna, can I tell you something?" Harry asked. "Anything" Luna replied. "I love you" he said and he kissed her.

She put her arms around his neck as she deepened the kiss. He started to kiss her harder and she held him closer to her. After what seemed like an eternity, they broke apart. "I love you too, Harry." she whispered in his ear. They stood up and he grabbed her hand. They headed towards the Leaky Cauldron hand in hand, casting sideways glances at each other as they walked.

They reached the Leaky Cauldron and headed towards his room. When they reached his room they opened the door and Luna sat on his bed. He locked the door and he went to sit down next to her. He put his arm around her waist and started to kiss her neck. She met his lips and they started to kiss. He leaned over her and lay on top of her cradling her in his arms as he kissed her.

Right as they were about to go further there was a knock at the door. Harry got off of Luna and she quickly fixed her hair. He opened the door and her father was there. "Let's go." he said annoyed and Harry and Luna grabbed Harry's stuff and followed him

They walked to a blue car that was outside and Harry loaded his things in the trunk. He got into the back seat with Luna and they held hands as the car slowly went through the many twists and turns of London. After about twenty minutes they pulled up to a small house. It was nice and quaint and Harry thought it was perfect for Luna. He took his stuff out of the trunk and they headed inside.

It was a nice house in Harry's opinion. He saw Luna heading up a flight of stairs and he slowly headed upstairs after her leaving his trunk behind by the door. He saw her enter a door at the end of a hallway upstairs so he went to the door and knocked. "One second" she said. She opened the door and he stepped inside.

Her room was small and purple but Harry wasn't noticing that. Luna was wearing a small tank top and a pair of shorts that were hardly there. He needed all the strength in him to keep from ripping her clothes off. She led him to the bed and closed the door. She sat down next to him and they started to kiss.

He put his hand on her breast and she leaned down and he lay on top of her as they kissed. He started to take off both their clothes. Once they were undresses, they got under the blankets and he didn't leave the room till the next morning.
