My Little Dream (Luna Lovegood x reader / Reader Insert X Harry Potter Story)

Mysterious Encounter

p.o.v. (Y/n)

The Christmas holidays were over and I was again in Hogwarts. I was looking forward to see Tim and Sarah again and return to my daily life. We had DADA and quite weirdly Sarah didn't show up. I didn't think any of it even if she was attending the other lessons we had. She told us she had overslept and for me it was the end of the story to that. However over the next days Sarah never showed up in DADA but every other subject and I was beginning to worry. When Tim and I confronted her about, it she told us it was nothing and we don't have to worry but I start to think it has to do with the thing that happened before Christmas. We already had the 30th of January and in two days Hermione will be allowed to leave the Hospital Wing and I'm happy for her but I can't get my head around Sarah not showing up in DADA because a month has passed since school began and she still wasn't once there. It got to the point were it was visable I was thinking about something as Luna asked me if something's wrong and I responded with "Everything's fine" even though it clearly isn't. She didin't buy it for just a second but told me it's okay if I don't wanna talk about. I told her I was at the lake and spending some time thinking about things as I often do.

I was at my lonely spot at the lake and I started to skip stones and just think about it all. 'Sarah back then I promised you I would protect you but I don't know what from. I would like to know but I am scared to ask. What if you returned to that state again in which you behaved so different. I wouldn't want you to go through this ever again. Whatever happened to you it must have been really horrible for someone like you to behave so scared and shocked' I was thinking to myself and picked up another stone to skip.

It was probably the tenth already and I was still wondering what I should do when suddenly from behind I heard a voice. "Hey. Why are you skipping stones all alone? Surely not just because you are having fun skipping stones alone"

I turned around to see a girl probably slightly older than me with a warm interested look and smile. She had dirty blonde slightly waved hair and big green eyes. 'Who is she and what does she want from me?' I thought to myself. "I was just thinking about things that have happened and skipping stones because I need to do something when thinking" I stated while turning back to the lake and started skipping stones again.

She started laughing "Hahaha! How interesting!" "What's so funny huh?" I asked her slightly getting annoyed. "Nothing. Just the fact that you reminded me of an old friend" She explained sounding amused. "Can I join you?" "If you really want too you can just do it. No ones going to stop you anyway. It's not like you aren't free or something"

"I wish to believe that too. Anyway what are you thinking about? Maybe I can help you out figuring out a solution to your problem" She suggested while picking up a stone and walking up a little behind me to start skipping stones as well.

"I guess it can't hurt involving you in this since you don't seem like someone I have ever seen before and you don't seem like a person with bad intentions. I have this friend of mine who is always so happy and interested in everything or at least that's what I thought for one and a half years. She was always so innocent and pure but before the Christmas holidays an incident happened and she completely changed. She behaved like the most insecure person in the world and I don't know why that is. She... was shaking and completely filled with fear. When I looked her in he eyes... She looked so liveless I was so concerned but I didn't want to say anything because I didn't know what to say or do. When she in the end hugged me I felt how cold she was and I started shivering like her. She asked me to promise her that "this would never happen again" and that I "protect" her but truth is... I don't even know what that means. I have an assumption when and where it happened. She has returned to her "normal" self again since I talked to her but... I just don't want to talk to her about it because I fear that she remembers this and turns like this again. I just don't know what I should do..." I explained to this girl I just met and feeling my eyes almost starting to tear up.
