Snape walked up from Knockturn Alley and squinted into the sunshine of Diagon Alley. He abhorred walking down these crowded streets. But, he needed some supplies which he would not find in the dark, twisted, shops in Knockturn Alley. He swept down the street past the various shops. He only stopped once in the street. It was in front of the Weasley's shop. The Weasley girl was sitting on the corner looking absolutely miserable. For a split second he thought about asking what was wrong but, then, thought better of it and simply walked past her, his cloak billowing out behind him in his haste to get out of the infernal summer sun and into the apothecary.
Luna stood in the room a bit longer after George had left. She then, waved her wand, putting all of her things away, before heading back down the stairs. She looked over at George and wondered, once again, why he was so upset with her. Shaking her head, she stepped out into the beautiful summer sun. She closed her eyes and lifted her face to the sky, drinking in the warmth and light. When she looked down and opened her eyes, her vision a little blurred by the intensity of the sun's rays, she saw Ginny sitting in the gutter. Luna sat down next to her friend and silently put a comforting hand on her back.
