Sabrina-luna-potter: Thanks :D

Ok, here I am, and on with the story!

On Christmas Eve, the snow covered everything. Luna was always careful to stay away from mistletoe. "Luna, c'mon, it's Christmas! You can't stay away from all the mistletoe at the same time!"

"It's full of nargles, Ginny!" She answered. "Oh, c'mon, Luna!" Ginny laughed. "Oh Merlin's beard!" She cried. "What is it?" Neville asked, worried. "Harry!" Ginny shouted. Neville looked up and saw Harry standing there with a smile as she almost knocked him down with her hug. Christmas was really something merry that year. Harry and Ron came to Hogwarts, Ginny, Neville, Hermione and Luna stayed. On Christmas Eve, Neville and Luna were arguing about the fact that Luna would stay miles away from mistletoe. "Luna, it's Christmas. You can't go around trying to protect yourself from mistletoe."
"Yes I can! It's very dangerous."
"They're just nargles."
"Just nargles?" She shouted. Neville sighed, exasperated. She was being absurd. They were standing two steps away from one. He was caught by an idea so crazy he almost waved it away. Almost. He stepped back until he was under the mistletoe. "Neville Longbottom, are you barking mad? I just told you it's..." but she was cut off. He had grabbed her arm and kissed her. When they broke apart, they started to laugh at how clichè their kiss had been. "Are you still afraid of mistletoe?"
"I was never afraid of mistletoe!"
"Of nargles, then?"

"Maybe." she said, with a small smile upon her lips that made them both crack up again. "Ok. No. I admit it."

"That's good."

"We still won't hang mistletoe in our place, though. I don't want any nargles in there either way."
"Fine. It's a reasonable discussion."
"Is it?"

"I don't know."
"What?"
"What what?"
"What were we talking about?"
"No idea but it sounds like something interesting."
"Really?"
"I don't know." They were laughing like idiots for no good reason, just enjoying the cheerful Hogwarts air. "Hi, Ron." Luna said, when Ron passed by, looking a little angry. "Hi."

"What's the matter? Is everything ok?"

"Mm."
"Ron?"
"I'm fine! I just can't stand my best friend and my sister snogging!"
"But Ron, they're together."

"Yes! But Harry is like a brother to me! And Ginny's my sister!"

"Uh... oh look! There's Hermione!"
"Ron? Why were you so upset?"

"Guess why."

"Oh Ronald! You better get used to Harry and Ginny, if that's what you're talking about. I thought you had accepted that."
"I had! But still..."

"C'mon, Ron, don't ruin Christmas for everybody because you're grumpy!"
"I'm not ruining anybody's Christmas!" He said, defensively. "Then start enjoying it! You'll have to go in a couple of days, so let's stay together until you have to."
"You're right. I'm sorry for being so grumpy." And so they left, and Neville had the impression they would've given Harry and Ginny some competition. Neville, in the years to come, would always say that was the best Christmas he ever passed in his youth.

Again, I'm telling you that I probably won't be able to post tomorrow, because I'm literally drowning in homework, so I'm sorry if I won't be able to post a new chapter but in a couple of days. I hope you enjoyed it! Please review!
