Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter! *sadly!* :(
Authors Note: This is a couple of one-shots on Harry Potter pairings, 'cause its Valentine's Day, and I'm single. So this one is a Luna/Neville, and was requested by The Boosh-Meister :)
As Neville sat down at the Gryffindor table, next to Hermione Granger, someone at the Ravenclaw table caught his eye. Luna Lovegood. She was standing up, alone, and walking out of the hall. Before he realized what he was doing, he muttered to Hermione "I, um, forgot my wand. See you in class." And with that he took off, following Luna out of the hall.
This was his chance. He was going to ask Luna Lovegood to the Yule ball.
The first time he had laid eyes on her, he had fell in love with her. The way her white blonde hair tumbled over her shoulders, the way her sea-blue eyes shone as she talked non-sense. Yet, Neville loved this part of Luna more than her looks. She could talk about anything, and anyone for hours, and yet, never cared what people thought of her.
And her he was, following her to the Ravenclaw common room, like a love-sick puppy.
Except she stopped. Right below some conveniently placed mistletoe.
"Hey Luna." Neville said as he approached her.
Luna screamed.
"Ha Do you really hate me that much?" Neville said shakily, trying to make a joke out of it.
Shaking, Luna pointed to the mistletoe. "Nargles! Nargles swarm to these places! It s bad for me to stand under here!"
"Well, Luna. Normally people do this under mistletoe" He took the chance, and lent forward, kissing her gently, on her soft pink lips. He leaned back, catching his breath. Luna smiled, and leaned towards him, wrapping his hands in his dark brown hair, and pulled him towards her. After a long couple of minutes, they pulled away.
"Hey Luna? I was wondering if you would like to come to the Yule Ball with me?"
"I would absolutely love to Neville" she replied dreamily.
Neville grinned. What a great day this had turned out to be.
