As my eyelids fluttered open, I could make out a blurry image of someone's face. The person had blonde hair, almost white. Just as the physical appearance started to come into view, I jumped up, causing me to bump my head with the person hovering over me.
"Ouch!" I muttered. "Malfoy?" I asked quietly, looking up. The person was still hazy, but the person let out a soft giggle.
What? Malfoy never giggles.
I immediately raised my hand and rubbed my eyes to get a clear look. I shut my eyes and opened them again to see one of my best friends, standing there.
Luna Lovegood.
"Luna?" I groaned. "What time is it?" I asked, my voice a little raspy.
"Its time for breakfast, silly!" Luna giggled. "I heard you come in the girls dormitories really late at night. What was little-miss-perfect doing past curfew?" Luna asked, as she moved away from my bed to grant me space to get up. I groaned again, remembering last night.
"I was just taking a walk." I grumbled. I slowly peeled myself off of my bed's mattress and stood up. "You go down, I'll be there in a second." I said and I saw Luna nodding. She merrily got up from her bed and walked over to the door.
"See you later, then. I'll be waiting." Luna smiled warmly at me, before swinging the door open and stepping out, closing the door behind her.
I groaned aloud one last time, before walking over to the bathroom to freshen up.
-
Getting up and getting ready was really difficult for me. As I had gone to bed really late at night, I still felt sleepy. I felt angry at myself, knowing that me being sleepy will divert my attention from studies. My day had barely started and I was already in a bad mood. Great.
I blame it on the albino ferret I had met last night.
Nevertheless, I walked to the common room. The Ravenclaw common room was one of the prettiest sights I had ever seen. The common room was a wide, circular room with graceful arched windows that punctuate the walls which were hung with blue and bronze silks and a midnight blue carpet covered in stars, which is reflected onto the domed ceiling.
I, myself, love stars and the colour blue, so this was almost heaven for me. In the middle of the room, Luna was sitting on one of the couches, waiting for me. When she saw me, her face lit up, and she jumped up.
"Finally! I've been starving!" Lune exclaimed, as she hooked her arms with me, which I reciprocated happily, and we walked out of the common room.
We were walking down the spiral staircase, when Luna asked the question.
"I've been meaning to ask this, but why did you say Draco's name when you woke up?" Luna asked, and my body tensed. My fingers unconsciously fiddled with the ends of my Ravenclaw robes.
"Oh, have I ever told you that you look a lot like Malfoy?" I asked back. I expected Luna to be offended, but she was still smiling.
"Is that so?" Luna asked, her smile still evident. My eyebrows furrowed in confusion, a small pout beginning to appear on my lips.
I didn't respond, I only hummed.
Before we knew it, we were in the Great Hall. There were students everywhere. The Great Hall was buzzing with chattering, everybody laughing and talking with their friends. All the four tables were almost full, that is except the Ravenclaw one, where I could see two seats left unoccupied.
I looked over to the Gryffindor table, seeing Hermione. She smiled and waved at me, so I smiled and waved back. Hermione nudged Ron and Harry, and they both looked at me. Ron smiled at me through a mouthful of food, I laughed and smiled back. Harry looked at me, blushed, and shyly smiled at me. I shook my head with a smile at his adorableness. I smiled warmly back.
