"It's mad to think like that," Neville muttered to himself, pacing through the corridors. "You'd only cause more trouble in the rebuilding of Hogwarts. Why should something like that even be suggested?"
Neville was so caught up in his thoughts that he didn't even notice Luna start walking beside him. "You know you really shouldn't talk to yourself so much when the paintings are still passing messages about student activity around the school for teachers to keep track of us." She whispered quietly. "They think we're out to cause more trouble for the teachers and are set to stop it."
Neville laughed quietly, used to Luna joining him when he was walking around Hogwarts. "Yeah, because we were the conspirators last year, so we must be working to cause more trouble this year. Their logic is idiotic. Then again I sort of am."
"You're plotting to cause trouble?" Luna sounded shocked, disbeleveing Neville would deliberately cause trouble while Hogwarts was still being fixed.
"Not as such, more I think it would be a good idea to form or make a memorial room for everyone killed or important in the wizarding wars against Voldemort. Perhaps one which first years can pass through on their way to the great hall." Neville confided his idea in Luna, ignoring the people in paintings leaning forward to try and hear what was being said.
"Hmm, good idea, but I wonder if we'd get included in that or not. Some people are saying we're important. I don't think we are though. We're just people who fought for what we believed in." came Luna's soft response, as she thought over the idea.
Neville shrugged, "I guess we might be, but I'd let Harry or someone like that decide, because they're ones who will be certainly on the list. Should I suggest it to a painting and see if the idea gets through to Professor McGonagall?"
"I'll do that for you." Luna replied, walking to a picture she'd spoken to a few times. "Excuse me, Would you think it's a good idea of Neville's to make a memorial room which first years can pass through on their way to be sorted?"
"A wonderful idea Miss Lovegood." came the response from a fairly elderly gentleman who liked having ideas given to him first. "Why I'm tempted to go and suggest it immediately. You're a very cute couple together by the way" He carried on, before darting away through a picture to his left.
Neville and Luna both blushed embarrassed at the idea. "Well we do kind of act like we're a couple, don't we?" Luna said, covering up the fact she liked Neville with her normal plain way of speaking.
"I guess we do. I'd like for us to be a couple you know." Neville couldn't believe what he was saying, but carried on anyway, hoping Luna wouldn't completely turn him down.
"Really? You would, but why? I'm just the girl who believes in things nobody else does." Luna sounded surprised but pleased, staring at Neville.
"Because you make life interesting and are really kind." Neville said quietly, "Would you like to go out with me then?"
"Yes, I'd love to Neville." Luna immediately hugged Neville, just to make sure he knew she meant what she said.
Neville pulled back from the tight embrace so he could cover Luna's lips with his own for a moment. "That's really good I think."
