We apparated back to Neville's house.
"You know I was offered the position of Herbology teacher since Professor Sprout decided to retire."
"That's great, Nev!" I exclaimed hugging and kissing him.
"Thanks, you know the Charms professor is also retiring and they're looking for someone to replace him." he said grinning at me.
"Really?"
"Yes, wait I thought you were still an auror?"
"Actually, I resigned before I came to visit."
He nodded and said "You were doing well?"
"Yes, but my heart wasn't in it."
He nodded in understanding. The day continued. It was now three days later. I noticed a wrapper on the floor. I picked it up it was a wrapper for "Drooble's Best Bubble Gum". This was my favorite gum.
"Is this yours, Nev?" I asked.
"Yes, it is."
"Why do you still have this?" I asked carefully.
"I guess it's about time I tell you about my parents."
"Tell me what?"
"Actually, it's better to show you." he said.
"Okay."
He took my hand and we apparated to St. Mungos.
"Why are we here, are your parents doctors or something?" I asked innocently.
"I wish but no." He sighed.
"Oh."
"You remember when we had to duel Lestrange?"
I nodded and Neville continued "and he recognized me?"
"I've been wondering about that."
"He's one of the reasons that my parents are in the hospital."
I squeezed his hand in support as he continued "My mum gives me these every time I see her and my dad, they were tortured into insanity a few months after I turned one and they don't remember me." he said his voice cracking.
"I'm sorry."
"I promised myself I wouldn't cry."
I didn't reply I just pulled my sobbing boyfriend into my arms.
"I'm sorry you have to see me this way."
"No worries, Nev."
"You want to go meet them?" he asked.
"Sure."
He wiped his remaining tears and we started to walk in.
"Ah, Mr. Longbottom we've been meaning to write you."
"Is everything okay?" Neville asked.
"You go see for yourself." He replied cryptically.
Neville and I walked towards his parents room.
This is probably going on hiatus after the next chapter. Since I've been spending too much time on my other Harry Potter story and need to write more in this one.
