I'll just walk up slowly. Yeah, that's it.

Draco had been pacing the dormitory since he got there. He was feeling anxious about whatever Luna was going to tell him about Ron. Draco could hardly focus on anything else.

He had left the Slytherin House a little before the scheduled meeting time, so he could take his time getting up to the Third floor, where the library was. When he reached the entrance to the library, Draco took a deep breath and walked in. His hand tightened around the note that was in his cloak pocket as he made his way back to the study area.

Luna had her nose in the book that she had been reading earlier. Like her note said, Hermione wasn't around, and Luna was by herself. Draco saw some parchment that had some strange markings on them. He figured that these must have been the runes that Luna was talking about earlier. She had her wand stuck behind her ear, as usual.

"Hello Draco," Luna said, not looking up from her book.

"Hey Luna," he replied as Draco pulled out a chair and sat down. He was wringing his hands around each other.

"I need to let you know that I think that Ron is up to something." Luna closed her book and pushed it to the side as she spoke. "I'm worried that it has something to do with Hermione."

Draco was taken aback by what Luna was telling him. He knew that Ron was acting more than a little off lately, but he couldn't figure out what was the cause of it.

"Are you ok, Draco?" Luna's dreamy voice broke through his thoughts.

"Y-yeah," he stammered.

Is this the reason I feel sick when Hermione and Ron look at each other? Was it intuition telling me something all this time?

"I love you," Luna said rather nonchalantly.

"Wha-what?" Draco almost fell out of his seat.

"Its that easy to say, Draco." Luna continued as she stood as and grabbed her book. "You should tell her soon. She isn't going to be sitting around unnoticed forever."

"I know." Draco felt his face start to burn with blush. He didn't look at Luna, instead he fixated his gaze out the window. Rain was still pelting against it.

"Well, I'm going to take my book back to my dorm and then head down to supper," Luna said as she passed Draco. "See you there."

"Sure," Draco replied with a quick glance at her. His mind was racing with what-ifs.

Luna could tell that Draco was lost in his thoughts, again. So, she let a sigh and headed for the exit. Nobody talked to her as made her way to the Ravenclaw House, not that many people did go out of their way to be friendly to her. After all, she was Luna 'Looney' Lovegood.

She got to the entrance of her House, answered the riddle, and headed straight to her dormitory. Luna gingerly placed her book on the nightstand next to her bed. Then, she sat down on her bed.

"If Draco only knew that I really did mean what I said to him," Luna whispered to herself as she fell back onto the bed. Her wand fell from her ear. "I do love you, Draco... But you love Hermione." Luna could feel tears starting to swell in her eyes. She immediately wiped them away and shook her head.

"No, Luna, you are going to be happy for them...when they get together." Luna told herself out loud. She took a deep breath to calm herself. Then, she grabbed her wand and left the Ravenclaw House, heading to the Great Hall.

"Oi, the rain isn't that interesting, Malfoy," Ron said. Draco's attention snapped back to the library. Ron and Harry were standing over him.

"You okay, Malfoy?" Harry asked.

"I'm fine," Draco answered, looking away from his friends.

How long have I been sitting here?

"Come on, let's go eat," Ron said sounding happy at the thought.

"Doing your homework build up an appetite, Weasley?" Draco asked jokingly as he started to get out of the chair. Ron playfully shoved at Draco, knocking him back into the seat.

While walking down to the Great Hall, Draco and Ron continued to play around with each other. Harry just laughed at his friends, but kept himself away from the line of fire. As they got close to the Ground floor, Draco and Ron straightened up.

Dinner went by quickly. Crabbe and Goyle were sitting with Draco at the Slytherin table. (Pansy and Blaise were at the other end of the table, as far away from Draco as she could get.) Luna and Hermione sat as close as their separate tables allowed. Ron and Harry weren't that far from Hermione, but with all the girls that surrounded the two, they were as close as they could get to her.

When all five of them finished eating, they all met outside the Great Hall.

"I say let's cause some trouble." Ron suggested. Both Hermione and Luna rolled their eyes at him.

"That's all you want to do." Draco pointed out. He didn't want the girls to get caught up in Ron's ideas of trouble making. It was enough of a miracle that Draco, Ron and Harry weren't already expelled from Hogwarts for all the trouble that they caused.

"I think I'll just go on upstairs," Hermione said.

"I'll join you on the way," Luna said. Then, she turned to Draco. "Do you mind walking with us?" she asked him as she and Hermione started heading towards the steps.

"Sorry guys," Draco said to Ron and Harry.

This is an invitation that I can't refuse, Draco thought as he dashed off after the girls.

Ron had a sly smirk on his face as he watched Draco leave with Hermione and Luna.

"Better enjoy it while you can, Malfoy," he said.
