Luna stepped through the Floo, and Draco Malfoy took the moment to look her over. Blonde, with clover-honey hair and bright blue eyes - often dazed, now blinking. And were those carrots about her neck? Honestly! Some people took eyecatching to new heights! And radishes in her ears!
Catching himself, Draco Malfoy dropped elegantly (unlike Potter, he did not flop) into a seat on the couch, his sprawling form taking up more than half the object. "Welcome," he said, gesturing grandly. "Granger will be along in a moment."
"Ah." Luna said, "I had wondered why you were welcoming me. Best not to let Hermione hear you welcoming me to her flat, you realize?"
Draco inclined his head smoothly. "I doubt my date would be pleased with that." Luna's eyes sharpened, slightly, as she looked at him with the hint of a frown on your face.
"Miss Luna Lovegood, I don't believe we've been properly introduced." Nott said, managing a brief glare at Draco for monopolizing the girl's scattered attention.
"Mister Theodore Nott, I have not yet had the pleasure of making a formal acquaintance of you. What do you know of crumplehorned snorkacks?"
"Precious little, I'm afraid... Perhaps you might enlighten me?" Nott's courtesy was well-schooled, although Draco Malfoy found himself wondering if Theo knew what he was getting himself into.
Theo and Luna stood talking, while Draco Malfoy lounged nearby on the couch. For five minutes. Suddenly, a thought came to him - he hadn't seen a single candle while he was here. In fact, he wondered, as he looked up, was this a Muggle flat? He opened his mouth to say something-
Like a herd of elephants were on her heels, Hermione Granger plunged into the room, waving a pack of cards as if it was the Goblet of Fire itself! "Finally! I found them!" Her face was consumed by an all-encompassing fiery grin. Draco Malfoy slid smoothly into an upright position, sitting decorously on the couch and paying attention.
[a/n: Draco's POV. Draco thinks he's elegant. Draco is also smug and arrogant.
More Luna next time, leave a review if you please!]
