-After Lunch – Back to the Ravenclaw Common Room-
"It's official, now I'm only leaving this room when Valentine's Day is over" I said with a frown, entering the common room with another pile of gifts in my arms.
"I don't know why you're complaining" Terry grumbled under his breath.
"Stop pouting Terry" Sue said to him while rolling her eyes.
"I'm not pouting" he said, while having a big pout on his face.
"..." and Sue looked at him dryly.
And without paying attention to Terry's antics I went up to my room again, intending to keep these gifts in my room too.
'Soon there won't be room in my room with so many gifts' I sighed.
I knew that I could just throw all these gifts in the trash, but even though I found it tiring, irritating and annoying to receive these gifts from all these girls, I still couldn't bring myself to do something so cruel to them.
'Sigh... Damn the Tri-Wizard Tournament that made me famous' I thought.
I then arrived in front of my room, and opening the door with wandless magic I entered it, before going to a corner of the room.
In that corner of the room were all the gifts I had received today, and I then placed the gifts in my arms there with the others.
And as soon as I finished doing that I turned and prepared to leave my room.
"Meow" I heard a meow.
And looking back I saw Nyx sitting on top of my bed looking at me.
"Hi girl, how was your walk today?" I asked as I approached her, scratching behind her ear.
"Meow" she meowed, and I could feel satisfaction coming from her.
And using Beast Talk I looked into her mind through the connection and saw that she had actually gone to Beauxbatons' great carriage to explore the place of the French wizards and witches.
"Oh, looks like you found a new place to explore," I said, and she meowed as she nodded.
Nyx then got up and got down from the bed, and looking at her I saw her climb on top of my table.
"Meow" she meowed, as if calling me.
And going over to her I saw her looking at a small, beautifully wrapped box that was on the table.
"Huh? What is that?" I asked out loud.
It looked like a gift, but I didn't remember leaving any gifts on this table.
"Strange" I muttered, taking the box.
I then opened this little box, having already felt that there was no spell or magic in it.
And as soon as I opened it I could see that inside there was a beautiful braided leather bracelet, with some silver decorations in the shape of leaves.
But what really caught my attention about this bracelet was the silver moon-shaped pendant on it, and on that moon was a small star made of some blue crystal that shined beautifully.
"Beautiful" I murmured in wonder, delicately taking the bracelet.
And the more I looked at the bracelet the more I became in awe, but then as I looked at the pendant on it I remembered something.
"This pendant is that item I saw Luna taking out of your pocket today before lunch" I realized, eyes widening slightly.
"So that means this is a gift from Luna to me" and I felt my face heat up.
I could see that the bracelet was completely and carefully handmade, and I could feel all the effort and work that Luna put into it.
And knowing this I couldn't help but smile, feeling that this bracelet now had another meaning for me.
And then I took the bracelet and put it on, and looking at it on my wrist I felt happy.
"This is the first gift I received today that I liked" I commented to myself, touching the bracelet affectionately.
"Meow" I heard Nyx meow.
"What's it girl?" I asked, before noticing her looking at the bracelet, "Oh, you like it too?"
"Meow" she nodded, making me smile.
*Ring!*
And while I was talking to Nyx I heard the bell ring, signaling that afternoon classes would begin.
"Well, I have to go" I said to Nyx, petting her again, "While I'm in class try not to cause too much trouble, okay?"
And the look she gave me seemed to say 'Bitch, who do you think I am?'
"Yes, yes, I forgot that you never cause problems" I rolled my eyes, 'The most you do is cause trauma to other students'
But shaking my head I looked back at her, "And remember, keep your eyes on Moody, and if he does anything strange let me know" I said seriously.
"Meow" Nyx nodded.
"Great" I said, smiling satisfied.
After that I left my room, going down to the common room, and when I got there I saw my friends waiting for me.
"Why did you take so long?" Stephen asked me.
"Oh, I was taking care of some business" I said, without going into further detail.
"I see" he nodded.
"But well" Terry started to say, catching our attention, "Since we're all here then let's go"
"Yes, I don't want to be late for Professor McGonagall's class" Anthony made a face, "The last time I was late for one of her classes she said she was going to turn me into a clock and hang me on the wall of Professor Snape's room... And I feel like this wasn't a simple threat."
And knowing Professor McGonagall I had a feeling she wasn't joking when she said that to him, and so I could only look at my poor friend with sympathy.
But leaving that aside I started looking around, looking for a certain someone.
"Hmm, where's Luna?" I asked, not seeing the petite blonde girl.
"Oh, her next class is Care of Magical Creatures in the enclosure near the Forbidden Forest, so she left early" Terry replied, and I nodded.
'Sigh... So apparently I'm going to have to wait until dinner time to be able to thank her for the gift' I thought, running my hand over the bracelet.
And I didn't know, but as soon as I asked about Luna the other girls in our group looked at me, and when they saw me sighing and touching the bracelet on my wrist they looked at each other, before starting to smile.
The boys also noticed the bracelet I was wearing, but they just thought it was some accessory I had bought, so they didn't comment.
'Now things are going to get more interesting' Sue thought with an excited look, and Padma and Lisa were thinking the same thing.

-Some Time Later – End of Classes-
[POV – Third Person]
"I'm sure Professor Binns has some ulterior motive for saying the Rotfang conspiracy isn't real," Luna said to herself, entering the Ravenclaw Common Room after her last class of the day ended.
"Is he trying to deny the conspiracy because he is part of it?" she asked herself, tapping a finger on her chin with a thoughtful look, "So that doesn't mean that even ghosts are part of the conspiracy?"
And thinking about this, Luna frowned, "Hmm, apparently this conspiracy is more serious than we thought…"
And while dozens of theories ran through her mind, Luna climbed the stairs of the girls' dormitory, going to her room to store her materials before the dinner bell rang.
And as soon as Luna entered her room, which had a decoration as peculiar as her personality, she noticed a strange box on top of her bed.
"Uh, what is this?" she wondered, placing her materials on a table before moving closer to look at the box more closely.
And now beside her bed she crouched, looking at the box more closely.
The box was made of white wood elegantly carved in an antique style, and it had some silver and gold details on it that made it even more beautiful.
And with a curious look on her face, Luna ran her hand over the box, before lifting its lid.
And as soon as the box was opened, light and calm music began to play, making Luna realize that it was actually a music box.
And she also noticed that inside the box was a folded piece of parchment, which she took and opened, seeing that there was something written on it.
"I saw this music box in an antique shop in Hogsmeade and immediately thought of you.
I hope you like the gift.
And thank you for the bracelet, I loved it. And I was also very happy to receive a gift from you.
Signed: Ethan Night"
And after finishing reading the note that Ethan had written to her, Luna took the piece of parchment to her chest, smiling softly.
"Could this be considered a Valentine's Day gift?" she wondered, looking at the music box with an affectionate look.
And then she folded her arms on top of the bed and laid her head on them, and still looking at the music box she relaxed, resting as she enjoyed the soft music playing from it.
End.
