A/N: OHMIGOSH! a chapter with no dialogue... Must be a miracle coming from me. Anyway, I had writers block, so I listened to my favorite song (Check Yes Juliet, as of yesterday) and surprisingly it inspired me when I wasn't even twenty seconds through! Normally I just get the song in my head, and it doesn't help at all but this time it did, so that was good
Please
Enjoy ;-)
Chapter 3 – A Moonlight Breeze
Larissa and Ginny walked into Flourish and Blotts to buy their new school books. Molly and Arthur had some things that needed doing (presumably for the Order) so Ginny and Larissa were together, as were Harry, Ron, and Hermione.
Larissa looked down at her book list and saw that she only needed two new books, but she did need some new school robes too.
She and Ginny went over to one of the bookshelves and Ginny took out a book called 'Defensive Magical Theory', Larissa skimmed over all the books and took out two. She handed one to Ginny who thanked her and then gave Larissa one in return. It seemed that they were good at finding each other's books, but not the ones that they needed themselves as much.
They paid for the books, and headed to Madame Malkins. They were both fitted for new robes, and then had a look around the different shops before meeting up with Harry, Ron, and Hermione and then going back to where they were supposed to meet Molly and Arthur at to go back to the Burrow for lunch.
They waited for a few minuets for Molly and Arthur, but they soon arrived, and then they all went back to the Burrow. Molly heated up the food she had made the previous evening, and with magic, it was ready in a few seconds. They all then sat down at the table to eat.

It was around three in the morning when Larissa was woken up by a faint tapping at the window. She sat up in bed, and looked over at Hermione and Ginny, they were still asleep. Larissa then looked at the window and saw an owl tapping at it, waiting to be let inside. It wasn't just any owl, it was an eagle owl, Draco's eagle owl to be exact.
Larissa opened the window, and took of the slip of parchment that was attached to the owl's leg.
Look outside

That was all it said, 'look outside', Larissa looked out of the window and saw a faint light in amongst the trees just beyond the garden. She slipped on some clothes and shoes, and then quietly went down the stairs, and out of the front door.
She had her wand behind her back, just in case, even though she wouldn't be a match for any Death Eaters that showed up. Although, only Draco would know about her nickname for him, so she was a little less suspicious than she would have originally been.
Larissa was a little hesitant about going out of the garden gate, as that was where the wards protecting the house ended, but she pushed it open, and walked towards the light in the trees, her wand drawn, keeping alert for anything out of the ordinary.
She carefully weaved through the trees until she came to a little fire. She looked at it, flickering in the darkness, and she jumped in surprise as Draco came out from the shadows.
He sat down, and motioned for her to sit down next to him, so she did. It was only then that she realised that she wasn't wearing much and was starting to get cold. A cold breeze rushed through the trees, and she shivered as the cold air whipped her hair away from her neck, leaving it exposed to the coldness of the night.
Larissa into Draco's grey eyes, and rested her head on his shoulder, he put his arm around her and they sat there for a while. They didn't talk, or argue, only sat there, content with the silence, Larissa wouldn't have had it any other way though, listening to the wind, and the slightly browning leaves rustling in the trees.
When Larissa first looked up, she could see the sun rising over the hill, she quickly stood up and smiled at her boyfriend before leaving him there and rushing back up to the Burrow and quickly getting back into bed before anyone could notice that she had left at all.
