Hey everyone. I'm back with another assignment for Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry Challenges and Assignments. This is for Arts and Crafts Knitting Task. Again I've gone done the fluffy path. I like the fluffy path. So without further ado here is The Sweater. I hope you all enjoy.
Neville felt a shock of pain to his system as the familiar owl flew towards him. He looked back down to his large plate of eggs and bacon thinking it wasn't for him. It wasn't his family's owl but that of the Weasley family. It was carrying a slightly lumpy parcel in it's beak.
He looked towards where the Weasley family sat. Ron and Ginny. Then again didn't their mother consider Harry and Hermione her children too. He thought that was true.
He waited for the owl to fly over to one of the four friends sitting together but it didn't. It flew directly over to him and deposited it's parcel on his plate.
Dean laughed from nearby. "Your owl has gone and confused Neville for you Ron," Dean called down to their friend.
Ron slid towards them and looked at Errol. "Sorry about your breakfast, Neville," he said taking the parcel off Neville's plate. He wiped the leftover egg off the wrapping as the owl flew off. "This isn't for Ginny or me." He turned to Neville. "It's for you."
"For me?" Neville wasn't used to receiving gifts from anyone who wasn't his Gran. He took the parcel and studied it. It was indeed addressed to him in what he assumed was Mrs. Weasley's handwriting.
"Why don't you open it, Neville?" suggested Ginny as she, Hermione, and Harry joined them.
Neville looked at the parcel and began to slowly peel back the wrapping. He wouldn't tell anyone but he wanted to make this moment last.
"Come on," chimed up Seamus, "we want to see what you got Neville."
"Yeah," said Ron, "it's not like you have to save the paper."
With that said Neville tore the rest of the paper off the parcel thinking there would be a box inside. Inside the paper was a blue green Weasley sweater with an Orange N in the middle.
He felt the tears start to form in his eyes. This was one of the nicest things anyone had ever done for him. He then remembered all of the conversations between himself and Ginny and Hermione. They had asked about his measurements and he hadn't thought a thing about it at the time. And then Ron asked about his favorite colors. He hadn't given that a thought either until now. Now it all made sense.
"Looks like you're a part of the family now," Harry told him with a smile.
Neville smiled as pulled his new sweater over his head. "Tell your Mum I said thank you for the sweater Ron," he said as he went back to his breakfast surrounded by his new family.
There you have it the end of another flufftastic story. I hope you all enjoyed the story.
