Xenophilius: Floor

He never would have gone if he had known. Xenophilius Lovegood would have not gone to Diagon Alley – no matter how much his wife and daughter had needed new potion supplies and robes. He would never have gone to Gringotts, or even so much as left the house. By the ears of a spiky tailed winged-dingleman he would not even had left the very room she was in, if he had known.

If he had known he would have come home to his wife lying on the floor, and Luna peering at him with wet, wide eyes. Maria…they wept.


A/N: Would you believe me, if I said I originally was going to write humor for Mr. Lovegood? It's true...unfortunately this came to mind and so here's this angsty drabble. (Oh, and if it isn't obvious, I named Mrs. Lovegood as Maria here. It's rather annoying she isn't named in canon...)

Thanks again to all of my reviewers. Next chapter will be Fleur!
