Draco, Luna, Ginny, Hermione, and Ron, waiting outside the Hospital Wing, while Madam Pomfrey heal Harry. None of them tried to start a conversation. The three girls could feel the tension between Draco and Ron. They didn't insult one another with words. But they didn't stop glaring at each other. Their hearts was pounding. They worry if suddenly one of them offended and start a fight. Draco and Ron were famous with their bad temper.

Suddenly the door opens Madam Pomfrey smiled warmly at them. "You can see him now. But don't be too long, he needs a rest," she said softly, and then she spun on her heel and left them.

They all (except Draco) walking at a rapid pace, their steps echoing in the room.

"Harry," Hermione said in a low voice, she was standing beside his bed.

Harry lay helpless in bed. His right hand wrapped with bandage and he felt dizzy because his head hit the ground. "You come?" he said awkwardly. Then he felt a bit miffed when spotted Draco standing behind Luna and showing no emotions.

"Mate, what happened to you?" Ron asked.

Harry shrugged lightly, "I fell off from broom during practice with my new firebolt."

"Are you alright, Harry?" Ginny asked anxiously. She kept squeezing his free hand.

"Yes, I'm fine, just a bit dizzy," he said a little flushed; he wasn't used to with attention from the girls.

"What about your hand?" This time it was Luna who asked. Draco tried not to growl. He rolled his eyes instead.

"Oh, it's just sprained. Madam Pomfrey wrapped it with a bandage because it was bleeding," he said. Ron winced as Harry said it.

"It was terrible," she muttered.

Draco snorted in disgust, gaining attention of people in the room. He folded his arms across his chest arrogantly.

"Draco," Luna warned him. Harry ignores him. While Hermione, grasp Ron's hand tightly. Make sure he didn't say a word. Although it was clear that he was annoyed by Draco's presence.

"Um..." Luna started awkwardly. "I think I should go, it's almost Curfew," she said quietly. "Get well soon, Harry," she smiled sweetly. "Bye," she waved at Hermione, Ginny, and Ron.

But before Luna could be turned around to leave the room, Harry called her, "Luna, you left it in the library earlier," he said. He took a parchment from the nightstand.

Luna freeze. She didn't see it coming. She didn't even realize that she left something. She glanced at Draco. She had no idea what he was thinking. "Thank you, Harry," she took the parchment out of his hand.

"I need a word with you," Draco hissed and grabbed her wrist; he dragged her out of the Hospital Wing. Hermione, Ginny, Harry, and Ron looked at them suspiciously, but none of them made a movement.

"Bloody Malfoy," said Ron irritably.

...

He didn't believe this. How could she do this to him? He believed her. His Luna, his lovely Luna, lying right in front of his face. He should have known that this would happen. Luna is not going to stay away from the wonderful Saint Potter. She was too smitten with him. No matter how many times he asked her to stay away from Potter, she wouldn't do it.

Just imagine Potter with Luna were in a quiet library nearly drove him insane. He wanted to scream right in front of Potter's face to stop taking what supposed to be his. He won't lose Luna to Potter. He will mark her so badly, whether she liked it or not.

"Draco, you're hurting me," said Luna in pain. He kept dragging her towards the dungeon. She had a horrible thought that he would take her to the Slytherin common room.
