Harry drifted in his dream floating from one place to another. Images of Harry and his friends were all surrounded by mysterious men and women. They were helping them in what Harry thought was probably the final battle. Harry woke up and looked at the badly beaten alarm clock on his night stand and saw that it was Five in the morning.

Harry sat up in the bed and stretched before standing up and stretching more. When he finished his stretches he gently and quietly sat on the floor and began doing his push ups, sit ups and pull ups. 195...196...197...198...199...200! Finishing his exercises Harry changed into a pair of maroon sweatpants and a white tee-shirt. A bead of sweat rolled down his brow and he wiped it way with the back of his hand. Harry opened the door to his room and silently made his way outside.

Harry stood on the door step and looked up and down the street and the cool breeze that swept down the street was foreboding. The mist that was lingering in the air was heavy and Harry thought of nothing as he took off running in one direction. His wand was securely holstered on his wrist that look like a finely crafted

Black leather bracer. He cleared his mind and practiced his Occlumency and practiced building mental barriers and walls. Harry was smiling while he was running and heard none to the sounds coming from the home he just left moments ago.

Harry welcomed the changes in scenery as he was running. No matter how hard he tried to keep his mind clear he just couldn't get a certain Silver eyed Ravenclaw girl out of his mind. Smiling as he thought about her he began to feel the fatigue catching up to him. He stopped in a muggle playground and park. He took a seat on a swing and just felt that he needed to let go of some emotional baggage. Harry looked at the watch on his wrist and he began to run back to the house that was almost as inviting as the Cruciatus curse. Harry couldn't shake the felt that feeling that something terrible has gone wrong.

When Harry made it to the home he was forced to share with the Durselys, He quietly opened the door and slipped into his bedroom and grabbed what clothes he was going to be wearing after his shower. Turning and making his way to the bathroom he heard noises from his aunt and uncles room but thought it was just his uncle snoring. Harry took a shower and then heard some loud crashing come from down stairs as he was finishing up. When he left the bathroom and went down stairs he then noticed the door was wide open and a strange feeling crept up Harry's neck.

Harry drew his wand and crept silently as possible. When he entered the living room he noticed the furniture over turned and several scorch and damaged items lying on the floor. Harry turned around and bolted up the stairs. He was making a mad dash for his relatives rooms. when as he saw stream of blood from under the doors that Harry's aunt and uncle share a room and from under Dudley's as well he stopped dead in his tracks. When Harry turned around he saw his aunt standing in the hallway covered in blood holding a large kitchen knife in her hand. She raised her arm and plunged the blade into her chest and blood sprayed over Harry. The shocked young man lost his ability to stand he felt backward. Harry hit the floor and his stomach turned as he vomited over the hallway floor. As fast as he could manage, Harry scampered on his hands and feet as he jumped into his bedroom and cast a locking charm on the door.

Harry was blinded by stinging tears as he tried to think of his next course of action. Harry threw everything he thought was important into his school trunk and held it tight as he apparated into the burrow's living room. Ginny and Neville were sitting on a chair together talking softly to each other and Ron was paging through a Quiddage book, while Luna was staring out a window with her dreamy expression.

Harry's unexpected arrival stunned the four teens and Ginny shrieked "Oh my god mum Harry's here and he's been hurt!" Luna slipped off the couch and knelt next to Harry who was shaking and in hysterical tears. Harry didn't even see who was next to him but threw his arms around her. Harry realized that he was holding Luna because he remembered what she smelled like. Shocked and slightly taken aback, she wrapped her arms around him. Ron stood up and was about to say something when Molly Weasley Bolted into the living room with Arthur, Bill, and Charlie. When they got in there Harry was in a strong embrace with Luna Who was visibly worried about Harry as the whole scene was unfolding.

Luna held him tightly as he sobbed in her arms and she whispered soothing words in his ear. "its okay Harry, I'm here for you…" Slowly the sobs lessened and Luna wiped the tears from his face and meet his pained look with a look of sympathy and understanding. Harry hugged her tightly and she hugged him back and laced her fingers in his hair as he whispered "You are always there for me? Really?" Luna nodded and whispered back "For as long as you need me." Harry let go reluctantly, stood up shakily and turned to meet the rest if the Weasley clan. Molly hugged him in a bone crushing embrace that let him wanting a breath of air. Arthur grabbed Harry's shoulders and asked quickly "Harry, What happened?" Harry looked at him and Harry opened his mouth to speak but shivered, lost his strength and fell to the floor where Luna caught him and held him as he passed out.

Tonks apparated in the kitchen and shouted as she ran into the living room out of breath and extremely worried. "Molly…Arthur…Mundungus was killed…Durselys are all dead…Harry's gone missing…" when she saw Harry laying on the floor covered in blood Tonks let out a small squeak and almost fainted. She caught herself and knelt next to Harry and saw the blood was not his. She let out a sigh of relief and told the story of how the death eaters attacked the house and cast the imperious curse on Harry's aunt Petunia who brutally murdered her husband, child and then killed herself.

Luna looked up at them while cradling Harry's head chimed in "Does that mean that the magic protection from Harry's mother is gone now that his aunt is now no long alive?" Arthur nodded unsure of what would happen to the blood protection. He looked visibly worried about what was going to happen to Harry. Walking from the room he said shaken, "Remus needs to know about this." Molly let out a gasp and told the kids to go upstairs and stay with Harry. Luna pulled her wand from behind her ear and cast a spell to move Harry without disturbing him as much as possible. Luna levitated him to an empty bed in the room he always shared with Ron. Luna sat next to him gently caressing his face and smoothed his unruly hair. Ron, Ginny, And Neville looked at Harry and then to Luna who seemed to be the most worried about him. Ron stood up and took out some parchment and wrote a quick note to Hermione telling her the details of what was going on.

Luna began to sweetly sing a lullaby to Harry who seemed to slip into a deeper sleep. Her voice was soft and angelic as she continued to take care of the emotionally wrecked young man Laying next to her.

" Love is surrounding you.

Only you can calm the pain inside.

Vainly the world tries to tears us apart.

Eternity flows slowly by us."

" I will love you forever and a day.

No one could ever stop my love for you."

" Do not worry about tomorrow.

I'm beside you for as long as you need me.

Rest your head on my shoulder.

Every day will slip by gently."

" Never tell me good bye, I cant let go.

Every one tells me your gone, but I don't care.

Entirely yours to hold and to keep…

Don't tell me to let go of you."

Ginny looked at Luna and said "that's so beautiful…Where did you learn it?" Luna turned to her with a tremendous amount of pain in her eyes, "my mother taught it to me…" she turned back to Harry and kissed his forehead before she ran out of the room. Ginny looked worried at the fleeing image of Luna. Neville took her hand and pointed to Harry who was attempting to sit up. Ron turned from the window after he just owled Hermione and saw Harry sitting up. He rushed to him and clasped his shoulder, pulling him into a brotherly hug said "We know what happened…" Harry looked around and a sad look crossed his face and asked "Where's Luna?" Just at that moment Luna appeared in the doorway with a glass of pumpkin juice and vial of a grayish potion from the kitchen. "I'm right here Harry." She walked in the room and set the vial and glass on the bed stand as Harry looked up at her and took her into hug.

Luna was slightly shocked at Harry's sudden need for her but she smiled as he held her. She smiled and wrapped her small arms around him. He let go of her and looked her in the eyes. "Thanks for everything." Luna blushed at his gentle words and felt her heart flutter. Harry sat on the bed and Luna sat next to him. Luna pointed to the potion and sweetly said "That's a potion of deep sleep…I have had to use it for a while since the department of mysteries conflict." Harry looked at her apologetically "I'm so sorry for everything you went through." just then, Bill and Charlie Weasley walked into the room and Bill held a small box in his hands.

Bill walked over to Harry and knelt in front of him. His eyes locked with Harry's, Gently he laid his hand on his shoulder. "These are your parents Wedding and pledge rings, your Aunt was holding onto them and now they are yours." he hugged Harry and left the box on the bed between Harry and Luna. When he stood up and before he left the room he turned and smiled grimly "We will be leaving for 'Headquarters' tomorrow morning. With those final words he turned and went back down stairs with the rest of the adults.

Harry rested his head in his hands and began to weep silently. Harry felt a warm hand rest on his back and his heart skipped a beat. Harry turned to she Luna looking at him and he raised his head slightly. His face was next to hers. His emerald eyes stared into her silver eyes and theirs lips touched slightly. Their eyes closed as the kiss picked up passion and became more heated. Luna's heart ached for his touch and his undying love. Harry held Luna in a loving embrace and hoped he could hold her forever. Luna broke the kiss roughly and stood up shaking her head as raised her hands to her face and ran out of the room.

Hermione arrived at the burrow about an hour after Ron sent the letter. The adults filled her in on the whole story of Harry's relatives demise before she made her way to the stairway up to where everyone was waiting. When she got to the landing at the bottom of the stairs she saw Luna Lovegood run past her in tears. Hermione instinctively followed Luna outside where she witnessed Luna collapse.

Luna fell to her knees in the garden behind the wizarding families house and began to weep softly. Hermione stood behind her and watched her for a second before she sat on the ground next to her. "What's wrong Luna?" Hermione looked at Luna who was struggling to keep her dreamy expression. "Harry kissed me…" Hermione shocked said "Maybe he likes you…" Luna stood up, turned around and started in the direction of the house. Luna stopped in the doorway and said "There is no way that Harry feels that way about me…" Luna walked into the house. There was many worried looks that followed the young Ravenclaw woman. Luna went strait to the bedroom she was sharing with Ginny and laid down in her bed and began to weep silently.

Harry watched her leave and stood up only to be held back by Ron who was obviously worried about him. Harry watched the doorway as if to see Luna come back in a few seconds. Ron helped Harry back down on the bed and said coolly "Since when have you and Luna been a couple?" Harry turned his attention to the three friends in the room and lowered his head "We're not…I mean…I want too…But…I…I Don't know."

Ron nodded his head and Saw some movement in the hallway. It was Luna running into Ginny's room and Hermione followed Luna but came into the room with the other four Gryffindor students. "You kissed Luna?" Hermione was clearly upset. Harry nodded shyly and Hermione came in and sat by him. "do you like Luna?" Harry looked at her in her eyes and she saw the kind of passion the name had on him his feelings were evident. Hermione gently stated "Harry, to go talk to her. She thinks you couldn't like her in the girlfriend kind of way." Harry stood up and walked slowly out of the room and stopped in front of the room Luna was hiding in.

Luna sat on the bed with her favorite dagger poised on her left arm and the blood from her previous cuts began to collect and drip onto the bed. Tears rolled down her cheeks and she pulled the blade across her flesh several more times. She was so lost in the pain she was causing herself that she didn't hear the knocks or the door open. When Harry saw her with the knife in her hand he took three steps to get over to her and grabbed the blade with his bare hand.

The sharp steel blade cut his hand deeply and Harry knelt next to her with tears in his eyes. Luna gazed into his eyes and tears flooded her eyes. "I'm sorry Harry…" Harry dropped the dagger and wrapped his arms around her tightly. "Luna, please don't hurt yourself…Icare aboutyou too much for you to do that." Luna's eyes went wide and her sobs stopped and she in a slight whisper asked "You …care aboutme?" Harry's eyes meet hers as he gently held her hands "yes, I docare aboutyou…you were the only person I could think about since we left school."

Luna smiled broadly and she pulled her wand and with a swish the cuts on her arms and Harry's hand healed completely. Harry placed his hands on both sides of her face and wiped away her tears. Luna leaned in and kissed him and Harry eagerly responded by kissing her back. Both of them laid down on the bed together and fell into a deep sleep in each others arms.

Hermione and Ginny looked in and saw the young couple asleep and they turned to go to go back to their boy friends. Ginny watched Hermione and asked "When are you going to tell Harry, about you and Ron?" Hermione stopped at the door way and said "I don't know, tomorrow." Both girls laughed and laid with their Boy freinds and fell asleep beside them.
