Present day. 12 Grimmauld Place & Diagon Alley.
Luna was sat down on the grass in the garden of 12 Grimmauld Place. The sunrise was peering through the horizon as she scribbled through her sketchbook.
"Hey, Luna." Ginny chirped as she walked out into the garden through the sliding glass doors Harry had added. "Whatcha drawing?"
Luna smiled at her and showed her the drawing of the sunrise. Ginny stared in awe. The drawing had started to move on its own, the sun continuously going up and down.
"Wow. Very lifelike." Ginny said in awe. "How'd you get it to move?"
"I learnt a few spells from this book I've been reading. It can make a drawing or a picture move with a simple flick of your wand."
"Wow." Ginny chuckled. "You did a great job, Luna."
Luna smiled back, but it didn't reach her usually gleeful eyes.
"I don't know." She said. "Can't seem to get him right today."
"Why's that?"
"I woke up with this buzzing in my head." She said with a slight frown. "It must be the Wrackspurts. Do you hear it?"
Ginny furrowed her eyebrows. "I don't think so?"
"Must be the Wrackspurts then," Luna replied happily before returning to her drawing.
"You know what I think?" Ginny stepped closer to her. "You need to get out of your head a little bit. It's good for the soul." She then smirked proudly. "And it just so happens that I know the perfect way to do it."
Luna looked at her and tilted her head to one side with a raised eyebrow.
"You. Are spending the day with me." Ginny laughed before continuing. "We're going to do some eating...some walking... maybe some more eating... I'm a big fan of food. It runs in the family."
Luna's smiled widened as she blushed. Ginny noticed this and blushed too. Luna sat up from the grass and put her sketchbook away.
"Is this... a date?" She asked with a small blush.
Ginny blushed and looked away before she giggled to herself. "I hope so... or else I'm wasting a whole lot of lip gloss right now."
They both chuckle and remained silent, both girls had blushes on their cheeks.
"So what do you say?" Ginny smiled at her.
Luna smiled back happily. "Of course. I'd love to."
...
A few hours later, the two girls found themselves walking out of Honeydukes side by side while eating their candy coated apples.
"This is the most delicious thing I've ever eaten." Luna beamed at Ginny. "I had no idea you could put candy on fruit. It's quite fascinating."
"You can put candy on anything if you try hard enough." Ginny laughed. "It's a worthy goal."
"Where would you like to go next?" Luna asked her.
"Actually, that's up to you." Ginny raised her eyebrows at her. "I've showed you a little taste of my Diagon Alley. Show me something about yours."
Luna's grin grew wider. "I know just the place."
Ginny smiled and held out her arm, to which Luna hooked her own arm through. Both smiling as Luna lead the way to their next destination.
...
The bell to 'Obscurus Books' jingled as Luna and Ginny entered. Ginny looked around in awe as Luna looked at her with a blush and a small smile.
"Huh. Obscurus Books. Excellent choice!" She piped.
"Don't get too excited yet." Luna held Ginny's hand, to which they both blushed deeply. "This isn't even the best part."
The walked around the big two storied bookstore as books flew around above their heads and rearranged themselves in order. The pair of girls stopped in the travel section right below the world map of the Wizarding world.
"This is one of my favourite spots in the whole of Diagon Alley." Luna beamed.
"Why's that?" Ginny asked as she fidgeted around with the globe in front of her on the table.
"Because from here you can go anywhere in the world without ever taking a step." Luna beamed at her.
"Huh." Ginny nodded in admiration. "That is the best description of a bookshelf I've ever heard."
"When your world is small, you do anything you can to make it bigger." Luna said with a tiny smile. "It's only natural. I don't blame you if you think I sound crazy, considering you've actually seen things."
But Ginny shook her head. "Not at all." She moved closer to her and leaned against the bookshelf while standing next to her. "Let me tell you, there were loads of days when travelling like this would've been a hell of a lot easier."
"Take, For example, anytime I took the floo." Luna giggled as Ginny rolled her eyes. "They almost always malfunctioned and send me to some tiny little town, usually while it was raining."
"Really?" Luna chuckled.
"Yeah." Ginny smiled in return. "It happened so many times, I started picking up these little souvenirs." She pulled up her sleeve and there were a number of bracelets around her arm.
"I got this in Hong Kong." She pointed at one of the bracelets what was red and white striped in a flowery pattern. "Ooh! This one I got at this amazing little village in Maine called Storybrooke."
"I wonder if I'll ever have an adventure like that." Luna said as she stared at the bracelets in awe.
"Oh, you will." Ginny said confidently. "I can tell these things. You are gonna have lots of adventures."
They laughed silently as they both entered a state of comfortable silence, reading a few books they picked from the shelves and feeling warm in each other's company.
"I may never leave this place." Ginny finally said before she pulled out a blue and yellow bracelet from her pocket, with a bronze rabbit shaped gemstone in the middle of the bracelet. "Oh! Look what I found."
"Is that another one of yours?" Luna stared at the bracelet happily. "It's very pretty."
Ginny smiled in return. "Actually, it's one of yours."
Luna's eyes met hers as her smile grew even wider. Ginny's stomach erupted with butterflies as she blushed.
"For me?"
"Yeah. I asked mum to make one for you, remember?" She carefully took Luna's wrist and put the bracelet around her. It fit her perfectly. "It reminds me of you."
Luna smiled warmly at Ginny.
"Thank you, Ginny. It's beautiful. I love it."
Ginny replied by placing her lips on Luna's, and both girls lost in a world of eternal love and happiness.
...
Luna was looking into her mirror in her bedroom back at her own home, she was admiring the bracelet Ginny gave her and smiled widely at it.
"What do you think, Pandora? Do you like my bracelet?" She asked her pet owl, who was perched on the table next to the mirror and looking back at Luna intensely. "Ginny gave it to me, and I don't plan to ever take it off."
