Chapter Five

The next day Neville managed to get to the Greenhouse extra early, hoping that Luna would forgive him for him standing her up the day before. He had found himself going to the greenhouse way after curfew last night, and was thankful for it. He noticed Luna curled up with nothing but her school robes. Using the summoning charm that Hermione had made him practice so many times, he called forth his blanket into the greenhouse and placed it upon her. Before he left again to go back up to the castle, he placed a quick note on top of the blanket, quickly kissing her forehead before exiting.

When he sat in the greenhouse in the back of his head he knew that she wouldn't be coming. He deserved to be stood up the way he had done to her. And so he was surprised when he saw her enter and walk over to him. She had the usual smile on her face. It was as if his absence had no effect on her whatsoever.

"I'm sorry Luna," Neville started to say, but was quickly cut off by the girl with the poofy blonde hair.

"It's okay, I read your apology, all if forgiven. But, why didn't you come yesterday."

"I knew you were going to ask that." He mumbled to himself as Luna came by and placed herself next to him on the bench.

"If you knew that means you already prepared your answer." She stated matter-of-factly.

"Well, I did."

"Okay, then what is it."

"You promise you won't laugh?"

Luna nodded and signed with her hand that he hurry up and tell her before she found a way to drag it out of him.

"Remember when I suddenly left a few days ago without any reason?"

Luna nodded and smiled to herself, half expecting what he was going to say next.

"Would you like to know the reason?"

"If it has to do with why you didn't show up yesterday, then yes."

"Okay...um, I realized something the other day that I've actually known for a while. I, being the idiot that I am, took forever to comprehend it."

"You're not an idiot." Luna corrected him.

"Thanks. Anyway, you ever get a weird feeling in your stomach whenever you see a certain person. It's like you're sick, but you never actually throw up." Neville grimaced at the visual that he had just used. He was messing up again. But then, that's what he was best at.

"Yes, I know exactly what you're talking about. I feel that way everyday."

"Everyday?"

"Yeah, I already told you about it though."

Neville tried to reach back into his mind to grasp what she was talking about, but couldn't think of anything off the top of his head. "As I was saying, there's a certain person that I see everyday that gives me this feeling, and I've only just discovered why."

"Would you mind sharing who this person is?" Luna sighed, trying to cover up her anticipation.

"No offence or anything Luna, but I think that I might like you." Neville whispered just loud enough for Luna to hear him

"Why would I take offence by that?" She asked him, confused by his statement.

"Well, incase you haven't noticed, I'm not exactly the most popular guy in school."

"And incase you haven't noticed, I'm not the most popular girl. Besides, I already told you that I love you."

Neville looked at her dumbfounded, "What are you saying?"

Luna smiled and shook her head at him. "I'm saying that I don't think that I might like you, Neville Longbottom. I know that I do love you. Why else would I spend all my free time here with you."

"I was wondering about that." Neville grinned at her and put his hands in his pockets. "I guess there's only one think left to do."

"And what's that?"

"Luna Lovegood, will you be my girlfriend?"

She smiled at him and found herself walking over towards him, "Why ever would I not?"

"That's a yes then?"

She pulled his head down to her level and kissed him gently on the tip of his nose. "I suppose it is."

whisperkey: Yeah, it is silly for me to wait for reviews. But I had only picked three...that was actually a joke, seeing as the reviews were supposed to come from Drew, Hannah, and maybe one other reviewer...which was you...YAY! LOVE!

Shantazatar (no idea if I spelled that name right, I'll just call you Drew: I was waiting for you to review...seeing as I'm going to see you a lot lately, I'll just nag you if you don't...MWAHAHAHA!

You both have been reading the story since the very beinging...LOVE TO YOU BOTH!

Stupor-mundi: (That's my younger sister...so cute!) I finally got you to review my story. (She's read all my stuff...well, the majority of it, but she NEVER reviews. First time for everything.)
