A/N: So this little, extremely short one-shot has been bouncing around in my head for awhile now. I'll never know the reason why I had the idea of a Snape and Luna pairing. Hopefully you enjoy it…

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Snape stood off to the side, unwanted and unwilling to disturb the quietly grieving school. No one glanced his way and he slumped against a cold, unforgiving wall, blood flowing from his bite wounds. The poison of Nagini in his system had been neutralized by an antidote just after Harry had left him in what Potter must have thought was a deathlike state.

Harry Potter…

Godson of Sirius Black…

Son of James Potter…

Lily's son…

He had protected Harry for Lily, even though she had married James Potter and left him in her past with cruel memories of their one fight. The fight that had ended all of the hope for Snape to be with his true love…

"Professor?" a light voice said from his side.

Snape's dark eyes turned to the pale blonde girl who was speaking to him. She tipped her head to the side, her eyes clear and shining in the dim light of a torch. Snape didn't know why the girl was speaking to him. Shouldn't she have been mourning with the others? So many of her friends and classmates had died…

"You look terrible," the girl said, hooking her hands together behind her back. "I suspect the Nargles got to you…"

Snape didn't know what to say to this girl. He didn't even know what a Nargle was. Part of him thought that she had lost her sanity in sight of the terrors of the war. The other part thought she had been this way all her life: spacey with a heart in the right place.

The girl took a step towards him and wrapped her arms around him, pulling him into a gentle hug. Snape stood there, frozen and uncertain of what to do. Was he supposed to hug her back or was he supposed to yell at her for touching him. She didn't leave much time for him to figure it out because she stepped back away from him and smiled slightly.

"You are loved Severus…" was all she said before she turned on her heel and drifted off to the side of her friends, humming a little tune to herself as she walked away from him.

Snape stared after her in awe. Little did he know, the girl would turn out to be his best friend in the years after the war to the day he died…

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

A/N: Yes, I know this was short. Very, very short compared to my other stories. I'm sorry about this, but this is as much as I could get out for the pairing of Luna and Snape. I hope you liked it enough to review. Thanks! ~ Scarlet
