Hellooooo! I hope you liked the last chapter.

Congratulations to for guessing who the next tape is about.

You guys are going to hate me for ruining this character, but it fit.

If I owned Harry Potter, Harry and Luna would've ended up together.

Enjoy!

Harry put the tape with the picture of a ferret in the tape player and hit play.

"Just so you all know, I was never considered appealing. I wasn't like Hermione, who everyone thought was irritating but had a crush on all the same. I was an outcast through and through. I was ugly and uncool. I was never appealing to the male eye"

"That's not true." Harry said. "You're beautiful and perfect and amazing."

"So, what went through your mind, Draco Malfoy, when you told everyone we slept together?"

Harry clenched his fists. He had heard that rumour, but, knowing Luna was sweet and smart and amazing, he knew she would never do such a thing and had ignored the rumours.

How he felt like throwing Draco through a window. After the war had ended, Draco had become slightly nicer, and he and Harry had become kind-of-sort-of-not-really friends. But, now, he wanted to do exactly what Hermione had done in their third year: punch him in the nose.

"After the war ended, Ginny and Padma and Hermione always used to say that we should date. True, you had gotten a little nicer after the war ended, but I just didn't see the appeal. We had nothing in common, except for our blonde hair, and mine was dirty blonde, scraggly, and tangled, and yours was pale blonde and well kempt.

"But, where was I? Oh, yes. The rumours. Many people know versions of the story, but the least popular version is the truth. So here it is: the real story.

"I was wandering through the courtyard during the first Friday of November of my fourth year, because I was looking for Swillering Humdingers, tiny creatures that live under pebbles. If you find one, they will grant you a wish. I was going to wish that people would stop being so awful to me. As you can see, I never did find a Swillering Humdinger.

"And this is the first place on youor map. The courtyard. Maybe you'll feel the mood that was there that night."

Harry got up, plugged headphones into the player, took his box of tapes from under the bed, and walked through the school, It was only afternoon-the school had been given two weeks off after Luna's death-but it felt like night. Dead quiet. Still.

Harry finally reached the courtyard and sat down on the Golden Trio's favorite bench.

"Anyway, you snuck up on me, like a snake. You came from behind and said, "What are you doing?"

"I jumped a little-you really shouldn't sneak up on people, Draco, dear-and said, "I'm looking for Swillering Humdingers."

You gave me the classic I-Have-No-Idea-What-The-Hell-You're-Talking-About-What-Drugs-Are-You-On? look that I'm so used to.

I turned around and continued my search. You followed me. I was slightly bothered-I was still wary of you-even after the war-but, I was glad for the company. Just in case, thouh, I drew my wand and held it at my side. I had a bad feeling about this. Somehow, I knew you were planning somethin that was going to hurt me and help you.

"Before I knew what was happening, you jumped in front of me, put your hands on my shoulders, and kissed me.

"What was it like? Honestly? It was nice. You didn't shove your hand down my shirt or force your tongue in my mouth. You just stood there with your hands on my shoulders and kissed me.

"After what felt like an eternity, you pulled away, embarassed, said "Don't tell anyone about that.", and ran away.

"I was furious. What was I, some play thing that you could take out your hormones on and not expect it to be serious? But, just then, I saw a faint shimmer that I thought was a Swillering Humdinger and forgot all about it.

"That is, until the next day, when, after Potions class, I heard of th first rumor: that you and I had slept together. I got dirty looks in the halls and people whispered about me and looked away when I walked by them. I, Miss Invisible, who was never noticed unless I had done something patricularly loony that day, was the center of attention. And I hated it.

"Draco, honey, I'm not saying you started those rumors. But you didn't bother to correct anyone. Your word would've been a sure stop of the rumors. But you didn't say anything. Yo walked around with an I-Just-Got-Laid smile on your face, which made everyone assume it was true. You ruined the memory of my first kiss. You made it okay for me to be treated as a play thing, for people to grab my ass and push me around in the halls. And, worst of all you ruined my reputation for my fourth throuh sixth years. I wasn't just a lunatic anymore. I was a slutty lunatic."

The tape ended. Harry wordlessy rewound it and took it out of the tape player.

The next tape had a picture of a purple flower on it. Curious, he put it in the tape player and hit play.
