Chapter 2: Jealousy
Luna giggled softly while Malfoy was hit by her cuteness.
"Why?" Asked Malfoy
"Harry—said the same thing to me…" She said flashing a smile.
Malfoy felt something when he heard his rival's name, something he didn't like so he slowly bowed down.
"Why, what's wrong Draco?"
"Nothing…I'm just wondering—what are they?" He said trying to shift the topic.
"Oh…their called Thestrals—their quite gentle really—but people avoid them—coz their a bit—"Luna stopped waiting for Malfoy to finish her sentence.
"A bit what?"
"Different…you don't know--well, Harry was the one who finished my sentence "before
Again Malfoy felt the sensation he felt before.
*What's wrong with me?* He thought
"Strange…" Luna whispered
"Why…?"
"Because they can only be seen by people who've seen death…."
"So—you know someone who's died?"
"My mom—she was quite and extra-ordinary witch—but she did like to experiment—then—one day one of her spells went badly wrong—I was nine—and you?"
"Ah..oh..i`ve witnessed Dumbledore's death…"
Malfoy couldn't believe that he already shared something personal to Luna and he was now worried at all in fact, he almost forgot his problem for a while.
"oouhhh.. Controversial"
Then, suddenly they heard the bell rang.
"Oh! I must be going—and you too..." Luna said as she slowly stepped away from Malfoy.
"Yeah… thanks! ~"
"Bye!" She waved while flashing a cute smile and slowly skipped away.
