I'm back! :D This time it's a Neville story. I'm still working on a new storyline for George so for now thought I'd bring this story out. Hope you guys enjoy. I don't own Harry Potter.
Chapter 1 Time for School
"Lex! Neville and his grandmother are here!" I got up from bed and rushed to my door and locked it. Right as I locked it my Aunt had gotten to the door. "I'm not ready yet Auntie!" I started looking for clothes and suddenly my door opened and I was attacked. "NYMPH! GET OFF ME!" My cousin started tickling me and I finally pushed her off me. She was laughing and then with a flick of her wand, a shirt and pants flew towards her. "Here, get ready! Your boyfriend and his grandmother are waiting." I pouted. "He's not my boyfriend." My cousin laughed and tossed me my clothes. "Not yet. It's bound to happen. You guys have been inseparable for years. He even doesn't care your mother was the one who tortured his parents." She closed the door and I went inside my closet to change. "Nymph, I don't want to talk about her please." I heard a sigh and I walked out fully clothed.
"Come on now. If she didn't have you I wouldn't have such an adorable baby cousin would I?" I shook my head. "Oh come on! Neville is waiting." "Off to save your boyfriend I see. Shouldn't it be the other way around?" I ran down the stairs and saw Neville bright red probably from something his grandmother had said. "Mrs. Longbottom nice too see you again." She smiled at me. "I told you to call me grandma didn't I?" Neville got even redder. "Oh sorry. Well shouldn't we be on our way to Kings Cross." I said super excitedly. "She's been like this for weeks ever since we got her letter." I smiled brightly. "Well then shall we go then?" I rand and hugged my aunt and uncle. "I'll miss you." "You'll be back for Christmas though." Nymph said from the staircase. I giggled and hugged her. "Oi, Neville you better take care of Lex." Nymph said I nudged her and turned to see yet again a red Neville. He nodded quickly. "Come on darling. Oh Neville stand up straight." I took Neville's grandmothers hand and nodded at my family.
"WOW!" Both Neville and I said at the same time. "Oh come on kids. Wouldn't want to lose a seat." We ran off after Neville's grandmother. "Now take care children. Neville you better do what Tonks said and take care of Lexy here." Neville's grandmother said "Yes grandmother." "Stand straight boy!" She said sternly scaring poor Neville. "Take care." I smiled and took Neville's hand and ran into the train. "Look Nev! An empty compartment." We put our stuff up and then we started talking about our summers.
"I was pretty disappointed when my aunt told me we couldn't go visit much. I see why." I said giggling at the thought of Neville super sick. "Hello may I sit with you guys?" I looked at the girl at the door and I smiled. "Sure!" She came in. "Hello my name is Hermione, Hermione Granger. And you are?" I grabbed her hand and shook it. "Lexia Ann Tonks." She looked at Neville. "Sorry my friend here is really shy his name is-" "Neville, Neville Longbottom." I looked at him surprised he spoke up. "Nice to meet you two. Are you both first years?" We nodded. "Are you?" She smiled and nodded. We talked and then I realized something was missing. "Um Neville where is Trevor?" Neville's face went red and he patted his seat and panicked. "I've lost him!" I shook my head. "Why do you always do this." He blushed. "Hermione would you like to help me find Trevor? He's a toad. I'd rather not have Neville try looking for him." She giggled and nodded. "Neville stay here and try to remember." He shook his head and Hermione and I looked.
After searching we had made it to the platform. I found Hermione and we walked to out compartment. "Found him?" I shook my head and Neville looked down. "It's alright Nev. He'll show up come on." I grabbed out things and then grabbed his hand. "It'll be fine." Hermione looked at us and smiled. We got to the boats and Neville went on a boat with a boy named Dean. "So you and Neville?" I laughed. "Oh Hermione. We are just friends. Plus we are only eleven." She shook her head."Doesn't mean love doesn't exist." We finally got to the school and Neville just went off without me. I frowned and Hermione nudged me. "Eleven!" She snickered as we walked into the school.
We listened to the Professor talk to us about the ceremony making me Nervous. "You alright Lex?" I nodded my head. "Nervous actually." Hermione smiled. "It'll be fine. I hope we are in the same house." I smiled. "TREVOR!" I heard someone scream. "I guess he found that bloody toad." I giggled at Hermione's comment and then saw yet again a red Neville. "He blushes quite a lot." I shook my head. "This is nothing. Once, he blushed so badly he was practically red for two hours." Hermione laughed. "They are ready for you." We shut up and then breathed in. "We can do this." I nodded and we walked in.
We stood there and watched each kid get sorted. "Hermione Granger." We looked at each other and she went up. The sorting hat took quite awhile to place her. Then finally "GRYFFINDOR!" She smiled waved at me and went off to her seat. "Harry Potter." I looked up and stared at this star. He was put in Gryffindor, but weird that the hat wanted to put him in Slytherin. "Neville Longbottom." I watched my best friend take the seat. Just like with Hermione the Hat took a long time. Only this time it seemed to be fighting with Neville in which House he'd be put in. Finally I'm guessing the Hat won putting Neville into Gryffindor and him running off with the hat still on his head. I giggled seeing my friend and his signature blush. "Lexia Tonks." I looked up and then walked to the chair. I looked at Hermione and she gave me a reassuring smile. Then the hat was placed on my head. "Ahhh. Nothing like your parents I see." I looked at Neville and he smiled. "Nothing at all. You have a remarkable mind and very powerful indeed. Out of tradition you are. GRYFFINDOR!" I sighed and the hat was taken off my head. I walked to the Gryffindor table and sat down next to Neville. "I knew it! I wonder if we are in the same room." Hermione started going off. I smiled and looked at Neville. "Now what house did you want to go to?" He looked down to his food. "Hufflepuff." I laughed. "Why Hufflepuff? They aren't so great." I pouted at the red head stuffing his face. "My cousin was in Hufflepuff. Best witch I've seen. Bit clumsy, but still pretty amazing." The boy nearly choked on his food and I raised my eyebrow. "Sorry." I laughed at him. "Red hair I see. Weasley?" "Ron. How did you know?" I smiled. "Met your parents once. Great people." I smiled he nodded and went back to eating.
The feast was over and we were being shown to our common room. "Lex, The sorting hat said something about you not being like your parents and you'd be breaking tradition what was that about?" I looked at Neville and shrugged. "Dunno. Never met my parents I was raised by my aunt and uncle." Hermione nodded and Ron pouted. "BORING." I giggled at the ginger. "Here we are." We stopped and saw a painting of a very fat lady. "Password." "Caput Draconis." I heard our prefect say. I patted Neville on his back. "Don't worry Nev, I'll remember it." He blushed. "Th-thanks" We walked in and the prefect went on about the common room. Once he finished we walked up the steps. "Well good night Nev." I smiled and went off with Hermione into our Dormitory. "We're roommates!" She smiled. "We've got other roommates too." We walked in and saw our roommates. Hermione went on with the introductions. "Hermione Granger, and this is-" "Lexia Tonks." Our roommates smiled. "The names Pavarti Patil." "Mine is Rae Harris." I smiled and shook their hands. "Nice to meet you two." "We should go head to bed. Classes start tomorrow." We all nodded and headed for our beds. I closed my curtain and stared at the ceiling. I thought 'Gryffindor huh. At least I'm not like mum or dad.' I sighed and fell asleep.
