Chapter 50: Magical Pets (2/2)
”I really didn't mean to upset her,” Chris said surprised.
Luna put a hand on Chris's shoulder, ”I always found her as a booked and stubborn girl. She just believes she is right. Don't worry Chris, she'll come around when she'll understand her mistake, which I don't know when.”
Chris looked at Luna. She knew, Luna always speaks her mind, no matter what people think about her, but she never said anything bad about Ron, Harry or Hermione. Chris understood she didn't because she considered them as Chris's friends. Chris understood long ago that Luna was really different from Hermione. For example, Hermione complained about every careless thing Ron and Harry did. . . But Luna, she never complained about anything. She just loves the way everyone was. Hermione wanted to go everything according to her calculation where Luna accepts the unknown dearly. Chris looked at Harry and Ron. Harry was looking more depressed and Ron was shoving a piece of pie into his mouth angrily.
'Hermione is a great friend but I'm glad my best-freind is Luna.' She said in her mind and started eating. ______________________________
On Hallowe'en morning, Chris woke up excitedly, for the first time, she was going to enjoy Hallowe'en with her friends, without stress or anything. Last year, she had a fight with Ginny at this day and also she had to go to the deathday party of Nick and had to miss the Hallowe'en feast, not to mention the first attack of that Basilisk on a cat.
Chris got ready and went to the Great Hall with Colin and Ginny. Then Luna joined them. They talked, laughed and ate many delicious things. Then they decided to go back to the Gryffindor tower and do something. Luna was excited to see the Gryffindor tower for the first time. As it was just a password they decided to tell that to Luna, Luna wanted to show them the Ravenclaw common room as well but it needed to solve a riddle to pass it, Chris wasn't in the mood of solving riddles, so they thought Gryffindor tower was the better option.
As they started to leave the Hall, Chris saw Jason walking towards the other direction.
”Guys, you all go. I'll join you in a bit,” She said and ran after Jason.
After following him in a few corridors, Jason stopped and turned around. Chris didn't feel like hiding so she stood there like she was just passing and just noticed him.
”Why are you following me?” He asked seriously.
”Who? Me? No — I was just passing.” Chris smiled.
”Really? Then just pass on.” He said and waited for her to leave.
”Oh! Well, I wanted to talk to you.” Chris said rolling her eyes.
”I don't want to.” Jason started to turn.
”Please, Jason. Wait.”
”What?”
”How did you know — I was going to save Ginny at the chamber?” Chris asked.
”Because you're an idiot.”
”Hey!”
”What? I said the truth — other than that why will a person who doesn't know anything about dark magic and dangerous creatures will go to save a girl like that?” Jason raised his eyebrows.
”Excuse me, first, that girl is my friend. Second, maybe I don't know everything but I'm not entirely hopeless, ok?” Chris said defensively.
”Great. Then do more stupid things for your 'friends'. No one is stopping you.”
”What's your problem? I'm trying to make a conversation here.” Chris said getting annoyed.
”And I don't want to,” Jason said.
”Fine. Go. All I came here to say is thank you. Thank you for the dagger. It was a great help. I will give it back.”
”No need. Keep it. You're going to need it if you continue doing this kind of stupid things for your friends.” He said and strode away.
Chris angrily went towards the Gryffindor tower. As soon as she entered she almost collided with Harry.
”Sorry. Didn't see you coming.” Chris said.

”Oh. No, it's ok.” Harry said, distracted.
