Lost in his eyes
Chapter 1
This was the first time Luna Lovegood had ever felt anything like this before. She cast it aside, post battle feelings she called it, but yet something wasn't quite right. She looked across to the young man sitting next to her and thought, can I really be feeling this, he's older than me and what will my dad think, but her thoughts turned positive as he turned to look at her. 'Hey Luna, I was just wondering if you would, you know, want to umm' he managed to splutter out before turning bright red, and turning away again.
Luna fought back a giggle as she looked at him and replied 'Sure I would love to do anything with you. Shit sorry Neville that came out wrong, but yeah I'll go help you with whatever it is.' It was her turn to blush now, and she repeated the actions he had made not one minute ago.
'It's alright Luna, I forgive you.'
'Oh thank fuck I was thinking that you may get the wrong idea, shit got to stop swearing, oh for fucksake...' but before she could finish her sentence Neville leaned in and kissed the blonde girl, before looking away in shame. 'Oh wow Neville I never realised how beautiful your eyes are.' Luna whispered.
'Oh err, that, that's from my mum's side of the family.' Neville, still lost in what just occurred, stuttered back.
'Oh I bet she's lovely' Luna dreamily whispered back, not realising the mistake she just made, and looked around at the carnage that was surrounding the pair, 'I'd love to meet her.'
'That won't be happening Luna.' Neville got up and stormed away, not looking back so not seeing the look of confusion on the blonde girls face. The echoes of her words still ringing in his head as he walked up what was left of the great staircase that took up most of the entrance hall.
As he got to the Gryffindor common room he was left standing there waiting for the fat lady to return. 'Shit' he whispered under his breath 'why did I have to be such a dick, she doesn't know what happened, she probably hates me now. Fuck, why didn't I just explain what happened instead of walking away. She must have been so confused, she was only being nice, like always.' He started to remember the good times they had together, he then just saw her face smiling at him. Neville fell to the floor, crying, where he remained till Harry came up and found him.
'Hey Neville, what's going on, and why is Luna crying all over Ginny, repeating it's my entire fault, Neville must hate me now?' Harry's words only made him cry harder, and soon he couldn't breathe. 'Hey, hey, hey, it's alright you can still fix this, just go and talk to her.'
In between sobs, Neville managed to choke out 'Harry, what do I do? You have Ginny now, how do I tell Luna I love her?'
