Chapter Six: First day of classes
Luna got up early and got ready for classes, she was excited for all of her classes even potions! Though she was sad that her 'penpal' was a 7th year because she knew she wouldn't have any classes with him. She couldn't help but want to know him but she was also afraid to find out that it was some crazy Hufflepuff!
While she was walking out of her dorm towards the great hall she got a message, her heart jumped into her throat.
From: D
Goodmorning sunshine, hope you have a great first day.

Luna couldn't help but smile the rest of her way to breakfast. After sitting down and getting food on her plate and in her mouth she replied to the message.
To: D
Aawwww that was sweet :) totally made my day too. I hope your day goes amazing!
xXxXx

She sent her message and couldn't believe she was already elbow deep in love with this stranger, though she talked this over with herself and she agreed not to do anything crazy within the first month of this...well...whatever this was.
Luna hoped off to her morning classes, she enjoyed them but couldn't wait for lunch to see if she got or would get a message from D. Three minutes into lunch sounds and buzzes started going off threw out the hall, Luna laughed out loud and her end of the Ravenclaw table joined her. Even though everyone was in the same room everyone was sending or recieving text messages that they couldn't get during classes. Luna's messanger went off mid-way through lunch.
From: D
Hope classes were good so far! So what is your biggest fear in life?
D
Luna mulled over the question before she sent it to him. She really wanted to meet him but she wanted to get to know him enough that he wouldn't run away after finding out that he had been talking to the infamous Luna Loony Lovegood.
To: D
I did thanks :) My biggest fear in life is living and dieing alone, this fear is equally balanced with my fear of being infertile. I've always wanted a large family and so I think that I wont find 'the one' and even I found them they would leave because I wouldn't be able to have children =/
What's your biggest fear?
L
She sent the message and instantly wanted to take it back, no one knew that about her and she didn't like being exposed like this. She waited empatiantly for his reply, thinking she would suddenly get yelled at by someone saying "HA! I knew you were crazy!" her messanger vibrated telling her she had two new messages.
From: D
My biggest fear is actually living in my fathers shadow and not being able to love and marry someone of my choice, I'm afraid that I will marry someone that doesn't want kids, someone that marries me with lies on the table and all that...I know it probably sounds crazy but that is mine. Oh and I'm sure you wil have tons and tons of kids that is if you want them :)
D
She replied with quick reasurrence that he would find someone perfect for him and that he need not worry, then she checked her other message.
From: Ginny
Hey girly first trip to Hogsmead is October 7th you down to go? I want to get some CHOCOLATE haha I know it's kinda early but I just found out so I thought I would ask you :)
Luna laughed lightly and replied back
To: Ginny
Of course I want to go I want chocolate too! and you couldn't just walk over here and ask/talk to me? Are these messangers making us lazy already? Jeeezzeee!
From: Ginny
Eh, I would have waited to Transfigurations to ask you anyways so it doesn't matter and no I've always been lazy this just helps me tell you quicker instead of waiting till I bump into you in the hall or something =P
Luna couldn't help but smile at her lazy friend and then she turned her thoughts the Hogsmead trip. It would be over a month from now when it was time for the trip, maybe thats when her and D could meet.
Luna thought about this possibility all the way to Transfigurations.
