#56: Cranky


Draco glared like he had never glared before. Pansy suddenly silenced herself and faced forward in class. Transfiguration was not going well and he was getting crabbier by the minute. His friends decided that whenever he threw these little glares around, it meant that they should stay fifty feet away at all times. He looked like he might hit someone soon. The faster the class was finished the better.

The lesson ended and he pushed past the other students on his way out. Everyone in the halls saw that he was not in a good mood and avoided him like the plague. That was, almost everyone in the entire school avoided him. When Draco rounded a corner he suddenly tripped over a shoe and fell face forward onto the ground. This did not help his mood. He looked up so he could yell at whatever it was that he had tripped over and saw that Luna Lovegood was stooping down to ask if he needed help.

"Hello, Draco!"

"What where you're your going, idiot!" Draco yelled, though it did not seem to bother Luna as she stood up and he pushed himself off of the ground. A group of first years cowered nearby and hurried as Draco continued his angry march towards the Slytherin dorms. But he looked sideways and saw Luna Lovegood skipping alongside him.

"Get lost, Lovegood," Draco snapped, but it did not phase her in the least.

"Why are you so cranky today?"

"Malfoys are not 'cranky' ever!"

"Are you being tormented by the Nargles? They are very active this time of year," Luna said, keeping up his marching pace easily. Draco rounded a corner and thought he might lose the annoyance, but Luna was like a little bug. She continued to skip after him and he thought of a new idea. He turned another corner and found the bathrooms and she smiled up at him.

"Are you sick?"

"No. Now get lost," Draco said, pushing open the door and Luna did not let the sign stop her. She followed him right into the bathroom.

"Are you sure?" she asked, looking around to see that they were as boring as the girls' bathrooms. A boy at a urinal nearly jumped out of his own skin at the sound of Luna's voice. Draco turned around and grabbed her by the shoulders.

"This is the men's, Lovegood, so take a hike!"

"But it is too cold for hiking," she replied innocently and Draco was beginning to get even angrier than before. The kid at the urinal hurried to wash his hands and push past the pair, who were currently at odds. Luna did not look like she was about to move any time soon and Draco felt that he really did have to go. So he decided that it was just easier on his already throbbing head to just let Luna do what she wanted. He dropped his hands and walked over to the closest urinal and Luna looked around the bathroom dreamily.

"Why are you still here, Lovegood?" Draco snarled, looking over his shoulder at her.

"I told you, your very upset about something. I was just wondering what it was," Luna said, looking out of the window to see the lake. Draco finished up and began to wash his hands. She turned around to see that he was watching her in the mirror.

"I'm not upset about anything. Just not enough sleep," Draco replied, though he wasn't sure why he was even bothering telling her this. He bent down to splash some water on his face, Luna walked over to him. When he straightened he felt to arms wrap around his waist and he looked over his shoulder to see her hair. She hugged him tightly and smiled a little, closing her eyes.

"Draco, you should sleep. Or the cokers will come and make you so tired that you want to cry!" Luna said, and Draco did nothing. He should have swatted her hands away or tell her to leave but he did nothing. It was like his brain shut off for a moment. She let go of him and waved.

"See you at dinner!" she said, and walked out of the bathroom, Draco staring at himself in the mirror.

"S-Stupid woman… it wasn't like I needed a hug or something…" he said, swearing that his flushed face was an after affect of the hot water on his face. It certainly was not because he had enjoyed getting a hug from Luna Lovegood.


- This is going to be a long series of oneshots, but it seemed like a good idea for curing being bored. Thanks for reading!
