Watching Luna confuse others with her strange ways was not only unbelievably funny, it allowed Draco to act arrogant, looking down at the confused faces of those Luna talked to with a smirk on his face. Soon he was following her around whenever he could and his plan seemed to be working! People were still not talking to him, but they didn't glare as much. Although Draco felt pleased by the direction his plans where going there was this one question that kept bothering him and one afternoon as he and Luna were walking through one of the corridors he had to say something:
"You never really told me why you considered us to be friends"
"Yes I did!" Luna stopped walking and looked at him. "I've basically lived in…"
"… my house for several days… Yeah, I remember. But that's not a real reason and you know it"
Luna looked at him; he could almost see her thoughts twirling around in her head. He looked at her with a small grin on his face; he shut her up!
"Well… I… I don't know… I…" The blond blushed, intimidated by his staring eyes. "I just feel like everyone should have a friend… and you looked like you needed one"
"You know what that's like, don't you? Not having friends!" Draco couldn't help but look at her with mocking eyes. He couldn't keep himself from taunting her, test his limits. But Luna just meet his grey eyes with her soft blue ones.
"Yes" she answered without hesitation, still meeting his eyes with a certain confidence that could only come from someone who was secure about themselves in every single way. "Yes, I do know what that's like"
Draco raised an eyebrow, he didn't know whether to be impressed or frustrated. She copied his movement and rose her eyebrow as well which caused Draco to smile. Her face lit up and she smiled back at him.
"You have a really nice smile, you should use it more!"
