"So where are we going?" Luna asked Harry in the car.

"First the cafe, and then where they want to go."

They pulled up to the 'joint' as Harry liked to call it, which Luna just rolled her eyes at him.

"You don't have to be nervous. Gemma already loves you and my mom will love you just as much." he kissed her cheek. "Not as much as me, but close enough."

Luna's heart fluttered at his words. It had been a while since her heart has been so happy. The two of them sat in the back while they waited for Anne and Gemma to come in. Harry was on his 5th hot chocolate that day. When Luna asked what was wrong with him, he told her it was still winter therefore it was still cold and his insides needed warmth.

"My girlies are here!" Harry squealed when he saw Anne and Gemma walk out of their car and into the cafe.

"Stop saying stuff like that." Luna was giggling. Truth is, she loved it when he used twitter language, but she wouldn't give him the satisfaction of knowing that.

"My baby boy." Anne smile at him when she walked in.

""Mom." Harry groaned. "Don't call me that. I'm a big buff man." he puffed out his chest.

"My big buff baby boy." Anne smiled and pinched his cheek. "And you must be Luna." She smiled at Luna.

"It's nice to meet you."

"You as well. It was about time I meet the girl that my son couldn't stop talking about." Anne's smile never left her face. Luna blushed, she wondered when exactly had Harry started to talk to his mother about Luna.

"How's it going Luna?" Gemma asked, pulling up a seat next to her.

"I'm doing okay." Luna politely smiled at Gemma.

"So where are we going today girls?" Harry asked. He was leaning back in his chair with his arms behind his head. Anne warned him that he was going to fall back and crack his head open.

"That indoor zoo looked fun." Anne replied.

"We aren't children mother." Harry grunted

"You'll always be my baby." Anne gushed.

"That sound like fun." Luna smiled and Harry gave Luna a playful dirty look.

Luna winked at Harry and Harry rolled his eyes. They decided to take separate cars to the zoo. The whole time Harry was complaining about how the zoo was for babies and Luna kept telling him that he was acting like one.

"C'mon Harry. We just pulled up to the joint."

Harry turned his head to the side and looked at her, "It doesn't work like that. Not at this place."

"You'll have fun. Your sister is there and your mom is there. And I'm there so..."

"Well if your there, then I guess I'll have fun." Harry playfully jabbed her stomach.

"That's the spirit."

The two got out and headed toward the ticket booth inside the building. Harry wanted to pay, but Luna told him to go wait for his mother and he can pay when she gets here. But that didn't happen. While Harry was waiting, Luna paid for their tickets. Harry was less than pleased.

"I did it to thank you."

"For what?"

"For being here and for helping me through some of my toughest of times."

He wasn't upset anymore. Anne was excited and Gemma smiled at her mother's excitement. Harry tried to hide his smile when he saw just how happy is mother was.
