Chapter 3

What happened in Canada stays in Canada

"Hmm hmmm hmm," I hummed a date with Luna. Well sort of, but well, its better than nothing. I only wished Luna noticed the fact that we were going on, well, a date today. "Well I guess I should review this book. Opps !" I exclaimed as I accidentally knocked over the he vase of flowers in my apartment. "oh shot," I said, talking to my self, "I forgot accieante redoa" I called putting a accident repellent charm on my self. I had been doing it every time there was a chance that I meet Luna.

TapTap I turned and saw that there was an owl at the window. I open it and released the brown barn owl of its burden

Neville- Sorry to bother you but its Lily's 1st birthday and we need to know if you want to come its tomorrow at 5:00. You can bring a date to. Its only going to be us and Ron and Hermione.

Okay?

Reply soon. K!


I quickly wrote see you there on the back. Then the realization hit me as I tied the parchment onto the same owl. I'll ask Luna it would be like a real date and she would know it too. I hope that Luna says yet and that I will have enough nerve to ask her. 30 minutes until Canada. 'Alright this is it I need to put on muggle clothing this time okay.' "Tronsoratioroca" all my normal wizarding clothing morphed into a pair of thick dark blue sweatpants, a long sleeved shirt with a polar bear on it, and a matching sweat shirt. "Whoa, this is hot," I said tugging at the neck of my sweat shirt.

Pop I thought I might as well get there early so we could o sooner had I arrived than something happened. Luna grabbed on to me. I couldn't see anything it was all smoky. Then suddenly we were in a open aired clear and bright; we were in Canada.

"What was that?" I yelled half mad half scared.

"Luscious Malfoy was in there and he fired a charm and I'm not sure what it was but there was a ton of smoke and I heard screams. Saw you pop in and grabbed you and apperated out of there," Luna gasped without any dreaminess in her voice at all.

"I thought he had turned over a new leaf!" I replied shocked.

"I guess not ," Luna responded with a rapid return of her dreamy quality with the lack of the, minor crisis.

"Well lets think about that later right now we should find a place to set up the picnic, see the Crumple Horn Snorecacks, and get out of the wide open where muggles can easily see us. Alright?" I asked a glazed looking Luna.

"Umm yeah," Luna said staring at with a faraway look.

"Follow me!" stated boldly hoping Luna liked a man that took charge. She said nothing, but followed me wordlessly and still she had that glassy eyed look on.

We walked into a patch of trees and slowed up. "Well the Crumple Horn Snorecacks are supposed to be about a ½ mile north which is 'naviato' is that way," Neville pointed forward, "once we get there we can set up our picnic in a place where we will see the Crumple Horn Snorecacks will land so we could observe them more closely."

"That sounds good," Luna exclaimed staring slightly alarmingly into my eyes, but I grasped that chance and gazed longingly back into hers. We gazed into each others eyes for what seemed like hours and may have been or could have just been a few seconds, but whichever it was it stopped to soon.

"umm well lets keep moving so we get there in time," Luna nodded and we started walking side-by-side we walked n silence for a while through an open field full of wild flowers and clover. "This looks like a nice spot with a good view," I announced.

"I'll put the blanket down and then you can set out the food, Sheeneno" Luna pointed her wand at the ground. Producing a pink and yellow checkered sheet falling gracefully on the ground.

"Herio, pensiveieo, honkyloker," I murmured bringing to the blanket a few sandwiches, fruit, and pasta. While pasta might not be a picnic favorite, but it was a very romantic. "Lets sit down," I said gesturing down at the blanket. She sat down I sat down right next her making a point leaning across her to get my sandwich. When I got up I handed her one to we munched watching the sky.

"Want some pasta?" I asked Luna.

"Ye-"

"Look up there," I shouted. We both gazed up just in time to see the end of a pack of Crumple Horn Snorecacks land about 3 miles north east of where we were sitting.

"Lets finish eating first" Luna suggested. I nodded gratefully I wanted to finish this dinner.

We finished our sandwiches and some pasta, but then Luna bent over me. I lightly tapped her on the head. Luna looked up curiously. I grabbed her head gently and she took mine and our lips touched. Her lips were soft and it was wonderful. We kissed for a long time and then we broke a part and looked at each other. I pushed a piece of her hair a way and then we both stood up I helped Luna. It was getting cooler and I put my arm around her shoulders. I whispered a spell to clean up the picnic. We walked and walked until it was to dark to see properly.

"We should go home, shouldn't we?" Luna asked.

I nodded. But instead of saying good-bye I kissed her again and then we broke apart sooner this time.

"Good bye Luna," I whispered

"Good bye Neville," she whispered back. Then we apperated.
