I was woken to someone bouncing on my bed. I opened my eyes, "Rose stop jumping on the bed.'' She stopped.
" Come on Mom, it's time to go.'' I looked at the clock,
" Rose it's 6:30 we have plenty of time.'' I closed my eyes but she just pulled my hand until she had gotten me out of bed. I had my morning tea and almost chocked on it from laughing. Rose could hardly contain her excitement and she kept checking the kitchen clock every minute. As if staring at it would make it go faster. Finally, it was time to go; we gathered her trunk and put Ivy in her kennel. We drove to Kings Cross and as I walked through platform 9 3/4; memories flooded my mind. I was careful to stay in the crowd. Soon the train whistle blew and I Kneeled down, "Ready?'' I asked; she nodded vigorously. She then reached in her pocket and held something it in her fist.
"I made you something.'' She said smiling.
"What?'' I asked. She handed a bracelet with silver beads on it and in the middle was one single shining bottle cap.
"It's so you won't miss me so much.'' I smiled and pulled her in to a tight hug.
" Have a wonderful time and make lots of friends.'' I then stood up and ushered her to the train. She ran onto the train and I turned around feeling someone's eyes on me. Ron stood there looking smug, he walked over to me," Luna it's been so long.'' I shook his hand, " She yours?''
" Yes.''
" Did you get married? Boyfriend?'' I shook my head.
" No it's just Rose and me.'' He nodded a surprised look on his face; from the name or from the fact that I wasn't in a relationship and had a kid surprised him. I turned around as I saw kids sticking their heads out the window, and then saw Rose stick her head out and waving. I waved back until I couldn't see her anymore and turned back to Ron. " Goodbye Ron.''
I wiped the hand that he shook and walked back to the car.
Harry's POVI raked my hand through my hair; I couldn't believe I had missed seeing off Teddy, and on his first year. I sighed and looked down at the paperwork inwardly groaning. I lent back in my chair and stared at the ceiling.
" Harry.'' I jumped, Ron had something to tell me, I knew that look on his face.
" Ron I have paperwork to do. What do you want.''
"I can't believe you weren't at kings cross.''
"Like I said paperwork. Is that you all you had to tell me because if---.''
"You missed her.''
"Who?''
"Luna.'' My shoulders sagged.
"Luna Lovegood?'' Ron nodded.
"She has a daughter, Rose.'' It can't be.
" What did her daughter look like.'' Ron just shrugged.
"Blond hair, brown eyes.'' I sighed in relief.
" That's not the best part though,'' I raised my eyebrows, '' she isn't married, no boyfriend, nothing.'' I just stared at Ron my mouth open. "I know right. Anyways I got to go, I got to tell mum.'' He slammed the door and I winced, and put my head on my desk.
" Mate you look like you just got the crap kicked out of you.''
" In a sense, yes.'' Neville Longbottem sat across from me.
"What's up?'' I lifted my head off my desk and took of my glasses rubbing my eyes.
"Luna Lovegood.''
" Ah, yes the one that got away.'' I put my glasses back on and glared at him.
" She has a daughter.''
"Wow tough break man. So who did she marry?''
" No one, she's not married, not even in an relationship.''
" That's good news. Right?''
" I don't know; I told you about at the funeral; she just looked at me; with just an expression.''
" What kind?''
" Like she had just given up. I mean I tried to contact her but she wouldn't respond and the one time I could make amends I'm not even there.''
He looked expectantly at me,'' what?''
" Go to her. Go to her house.''
" Do you want me to get stunned?'' he rolled his eyes.
" Do you love her?'' I nodded, more than anything, "Then go to Lovegood manor and make amends.'' I sighed.
"It's not that easy.''
"Yes it is your just making it complicated.'' I stood up and he ushered me to the fireplace. " Lovegood manor.'' I called; green flames swirled around me.
Luna's POVI sat reading my book and saw green flames engulf my fireplace. I expected to see the Grangers and instead saw Harry step through. I stood dropping my book.
" Harry.'' I whispered he smiled looking around.
" Ron told me about Rose.'' Of course he did.
"Yes.''
"Look Luna, it's been eleven years; I just wanted to apologize for whatever I did.''
"You didn't do anything Harry.''
" Then why have you been ignoring me, the Weasley's, and everyone else for so long.''
" That's complicated.''
" Try to make it simple.'' I chuckled.
" I can't.''
" I think you at least owe me some kind of explanation. I thought I was your friend.''
" Yes we were friends a long time ago. That being said; I don't owe you anything. Now please leave.'' I winced at my own words. The Grangers stepped through the fireplace.
Harry turned to look at the Grangers, who had shocked expressions on their faces.
"Luna what—''
Mr. Granger laid his hand on Harry's shoulder, "I think it's time to leave son.'' Harry slowly backed into the fireplace, a blank expression on his face and left.
