Chapter Nine: You are an ass hole.

"L?" A male voice questioned. She swallowed hard and looked up to meet the guy she had told some of her deepest secrets too. Luna looked him in the face and smiled, the biggest smile she had ever exposed to another human being.

"Well hello Mr. Malfoy, how can I help you?" her face was the picture of calm the only ripple was her left eyebrow slightly arched with curiosity. She placed a piece of blue ribbon in her journal, closing it as he slid into the seat across from her.

"Luna Lovegood..." Draco looked openly shocked, "you don't look surprised to see me...did you know it was me the entire time?" His expression hinted towards reserve. He was ready to clam up as soon as she were to say the wrong thing. Luna laughed airily before she spoke.

"Most people tell me I am hard to read and to be completely honest most things don't surprise me, but do you want to know the truth," Luna leaned in slightly, she watched as Draco's eyes flicked down to her chest and back. Luna saw his actions and spilled out a giggle, "I'm glad it was you, wanna know why?" She sat back down and waved a hand at the waitress. "Because you are an ass hole, excuse my language."

"What?" Draco looked at her like she was, well like she was Hermione Granger.

"Oh, I'm sorry sometimes I forget to censor my mouth, or explain why I said what I said," she propped her face up with her hand, "I meant you are an ass hole, everyone expects you to be an ass hole but I have been talking to the sweetest, most honest guy for the last, what? month? So that is why I'm glad it was you..." Luna thanked the waitress and took a sip of her butter beer, "unless of course this," she gestured between the two of them, "blows up in my face and I'm left standing there looking like a loser."

Luna took the silence between the two of them to observe the boy in front of her. He was simple looking, blonde medium hair warn with light products, baby blue eyes, smooth skin. She looked at his hands they were large and she had the sudden urge to compare her hands to his. She pulled her hand away from the cold glass bottle and placed it against Draco's. Her hand was almost half the size of his, it made her look a lot younger, almost a child. Luna laughed warmly at the thought of them actually walking around together, now that would be a sight for sore eyes.

"Luna, I can't guarantee that this," he gestured to her then himself, "will work out but I would definitely like to try it out." Luna gave him a small shy smile as Draco squeezed her hand lightly.

"Can I meet your friends?" She asked quietly.

"Only if you take the scarf off, it doesn't match your hat," Draco asked with a laugh as he tugged her pink scarf half-way off.

Luna finished taking her scarf off and stuffed it into her bag. Draco got out of the booth and took her hand, leading her to a table on the other side of the room.

"Guys, this is L," Draco smiled and placed his hand on the small of Luna's back,"and I think you owe her an apology because she is definitely not ugly."

Luna dipped her head slightly as a welcome and smiled at the group of boys.

"That's Luna Lovegood," one of the guys said.

"And?" Draco questioned, with no response he pulled out a chair for Luna and then sat down himself.
