Chapter 7: The Storm!

Its late when I wake up, freezing cold. I realize that there is no heat. I mutter "Lumos" my wand quickly lights up. I grab my robe and leave my room, pausing to turn on an actual light. No good power must be out because of the storm. I walk out of my bedroom stopping past Luna's, the door is open more than I left it. I glance inside only to see her bed empty. I continue making my way down to the living room. As I get closer I see some kind of light flickering.

I walk in the room only to see Luna wrapped up in her comforter, sitting on the floor in front of the fireplace with a small fire going. "Luna?" I call softy, she looks up slowly; I realize she's been crying. "Luna honey what's wrong?" I walk towards her, sitting down and gathering her up in my arms. She's starts to shake as she tries to relax herself and barley in a whisper she begins to speak, he promised he would stay safe and he didn't! After what happened when I was kidnapped, he promised to be more careful! Why didn't he keep his promise! Why didn't he run? Or fight? She starts to cry into my chest. I begin to rock her back and forth. "Luna, sometimes we can't fight back because it makes it worse. He lost you last year; you're the only family he has left. Maybe he thought if he didn't fight back they wouldn't go after you again. Its also harder for him because you lost your mother around Christmas time. If he lost you again, he wouldn't have been able to handle it." She looks up at me with tears still in her eyes, I gently wipe them away. "I just have this terrible feeling something worse has happened to him." I raise her face to my mine and begin to speak. "You said he's tough enough to withstand anything, then you must believe he is no matter what. And if anything shall happen, you're not alone I'll be right here with you no matter what Luna." "Thank you Sev sev." A little while later, she begins to fall asleep in my arms. I carry her to her bed and tuck her in, casting a warming spell to keep her warm for the night. I watch her for a moment, she sighs in her sleep. I lean down and give her a kiss on cheek, "Good night Luna my love."
