'Stop it, Hermione!' said Harry to Hermione who was still giggling. She was having flashbacks of Harry putting his hand between Marcus' lips and Hermione's hand and stealing the kiss, which was meant for Hermione. She just couldn't stop thinking about that. Hermione covered her mouth to control her laughter.

'What's so funny, guys?' asked a naive, dreamy voice which came from behind Harry. Harry turned around to look who it was. A girl, with blonde straight hair, and dreamy blue eyes was standing there.

'Oh, Luna! You gotta hear this.' said Hermione, pulling her bestfriend into the stool besides her. Hermione told her everything that happened (It took her 20 minutes to do so because for the first 10 minutes, she couldn't stop laughing). Harry had expected Luna to laugh at Harry, but Luna proved him wrong.

'Oh, that was so sweet of you, Harry.' she said, 'Stop laughing, Hermione. That was really nice of Harry, trying to keep you for himself.'

And the next second, Harry knew that Ron had blurted out everything about his feelings for Hermione to Luna.

Hermione stopped giggling.

'C'mon Luna. Stop teasing me.' said Hermione.

'I am not teasing you. Ron told me tha-'

SLAM!

Harry slapped his hand on Luna's mouth so that she can't speak any further. He dragged Luna a little bit away from Hermione.

'What are you doing, Harry?' said Hermione, startled by this.

'What did Ron tell you?' whispered Harry, removing his hand from Luna's mouth.

'That you fancy Hermione' said Luna, plainly. Harry abused Ron under his breath.

'You are not telling that to Hermione' said Harry firmly to Luna.

'Fine' said Luna. Harry was surprised by this answer. He had expected Luna to protest him and give him a lecture about "You should not supress your feelings".

'What?' said Harry not sure that he heard Luna correctly.

'I said-fine. I won't tell Hermione about that.' said Luna. Harry raised his eyebrows.

'You can trust me, Harry. I am not gonna interfere in your life. I don't want anything to happen between you and Hermione beacuse of me. So your secret is safe with me.' said Luna. And Harry didn't 99know why, but he trusted this girl.

'I must say, Harry' said Luna, 'You've a great taste.'

Harry blushed.

'May I return to my friend now?' asked Luna.

'Sure' said Harry.

'Drop it, Hermione!' said Harry to Hermione who had been forcing him to tell what Luna and Harry were talking about.

'There can't be anything that Luna knows but I don't. She never hides anything from me.' said Hermione to herself. Hermione kept mumbling to herself. Harry couldn't deny, that she looked very cute while talking to herself. She looked so much like a little cute child, scratching her head, raising her one of the eyebrows. Harry kept staring at her.

It was 9 pm. Harry was still hanging out with Hermione.

'Do you like to read books?' asked Hermione while they were having their dinner (which was arranged on the pool-side).

'Well, I do like to read murder mysteries.' said Harry.

'Who's your favourite author?' asked Hermione.
