Super short One Shot I wrote. Was intended to be a long story but it didn't work out. Enjoy I don't own Harry Potter.
There was always something that kept me around Neville Longbottom. I don't know if it was just his bad luck or the fact he couldn't stand being in a room with me. Not that he hates me or anything it was just he always seemed to stutter, lose his words, and run away from me. It was quite bothersome really. I've always wanted to talk to him. It wasn't until our last year at Hogwarts that I really got to know him.
I was yet again tending to Neville's cuts and bruises. "Neville you really need to stop standing up to them." "I do it because it's not right. What do you care Celine?" I stood up from the ground angrily. "What do I care? If I didn't care I wouldn't be here fixing you up!" I turned to walk away, but Neville got a hold of my hand. I glared at him. "I'm sorry, I'm just irritated about this whole thing. I just can't help myself from standing up." I laughed. "I've known you for seven long years. You've avoided me for six and now you're all outgoing? This is refreshing really." He looked at me. I held his face in my hands. "Please try not to get yourself hurt again. I can't stand seeing you hurt all the time." He blushed. "It's late and your wounds are good for now. Goodnight Neville."
I walked back into my room that night wondering why my heart was beating so fast, and that's when I realized it. Those many years of wanting to know Neville, the years I've wanted nothing but to be his friend. I've fancied him. I groaned. 'Great time to figure this out,' I sighed and fell asleep.
The next morning I woke up and dressed for school. I walked downstairs only to see Neville waiting. "What is it Neville?" He blushed. "We have, um. Well I wanted to." "Oh bloody hell." I kissed Neville on the lips just to shut him up. I was rather surprised when he kissed back. He wasn't so bad for being, well, Neville. I pulled away from him and couldn't help but giggle. "Not so hard was it?" He shook his head. I smiled and pecked his lips. "Now go to class and try not to get hurt so much."
