Samantha walked down a corridor, speaking to Neville about Herbology. He said something funny and she laughed.
She saw Fred and George leaning against the wall outside of the common room and she gulped. It had been a couple of days since their birthday party and thankfully Neville had kept her busy with helping her with Herbology.
"I'll be inside in a second," Samantha muttered to Neville.
The boy nodded, sent her a smile, and went into the common room.
"What's up?" she asked, shuffling her feet awkwardly.
"I wanted to talk to you about the other night," George said after Fred shoved his shoulder.
Samantha shrugged, trying to act nonchalant but she felt her cheeks start to heat up. "It's all good. You were tired, not to mention you had quite a bit of butterbeer."
"Yeah, but -"
"I said it was okay." Samantha forced a smile on her face. "No harm done, we're still friends."
George opened his mouth to say something while shaking his head.
"Thank Merlin, we thought you had been avoiding us," Fred said, interrupting his brother.
"Oh no, Neville has just been helping me with homework. I'm a lost cause when it comes to Herbology." Samantha chuckled nervously.
Fred smirked. "Well, we should let you get to it, then." The three went into the common room and went their separate ways.
"What did they need to talk to you about?" Neville asked, watching the twins sit down next to Lee.
"George kissed my cheek the other night." Samantha opened her Herbology book.
Neville's eyes widened. "You think he likes you?"
Samantha sent George a fleeting glance. "Maybe. He had way too much butterbeer so he probably wasn't thinking straight."
A small smirk appeared on Neville's face. "I think he likes you."
Samantha glared at her friend. "He's fourteen, I'm eleven. Not likely."
But Neville's smirk just widened.
