As much as Ron, Hermione, Ginny, and Neville would not give up their grudges against Malfoy, Harry and Luna believed in people being able to change, so when Luna announced to her friends that Draco had asked her to lunch with him so he could apologize, Harry asked to go along, much to the horror of the others. When the two arrived at the Three Broomsticks, they found Draco and sat with him. They sat in silence for a long time, but then Draco blurted out all he had wanted to say since the war had ended. He apologized for being such a jerk to them all, and asked if they could relay the message to the others. He begged the two to realize that he had changed and wanted to right the wrongs he had committed. Luna forgave him immediately, as was her personality, but Harry still had his doubts. Draco had wronged him so many times through the years that he could never fully forgive the blond-haired boy, but after the two going to lunch together once a week for a long time, they became as close to friends as two men who have tortured each other for 7 years can.
