Challenge: One True Something 20
She was lying there, next to me on the grass, her beautiful silvery eyes closed and her long dirty blond hair spread beautifully all around her. She was probably thinking about something I wouldn’t understand. Nargles or Wrackspurts or something else like that. All I was sure of was that she wasn’t thinking the same I was.
I was thinking about how her lips were perfect and how I’d love to kiss them. I was thinking how she looked so calm and peaceful lying there, immovable. I saw a little smile appear on the corner of her mouth. I wished she’d someday smile because of me.
Her eyes opened slowly and she gazed up to me. Her silvery eyes were shining of happiness and all I could hope at that moment was that she wasn’t happy because of someone else. I knew she’d never fall for me, or that anyone would never fall for me, but I just didn’t want her to fall for someone else. Because I had fallen for her, and I was sure I could never get over her.
In my thoughts she was mine, though I knew I didn’t own her, and no-one could really be owned. And I knew I could never own her. I was sure she cared for someone else. Like Harry. I mean they went to the Slughorn’s Christmas party together. There had to be something… If I had been in the ‘Slug club’, I would have made sure to be the first to ask her. Too bad I didn’t know her at the time of the Yule ball, I would have been happy to dance with her, and Harry could’ve danced with his Ginny.
It’s too bad I can’t buy her love. That’s right, I love her. You might think I am crazy, but I am not. I can’t do anything about it, I just love her. And even though people avoid her because she’s ‘insane’, I have seen the true her and can’t help loving her. My heart beats only for her. And to your information, she’s not Looney, she’s Luna. And I, Neville Longbottom, love her.
