Absolutely Perfect, a Neville/Ginny story

'I've got to be the luckiest guy in the world', Neville thought to himself as he spun his partner across the dance floor. Her hair was flowing in ringlets down her back, complimenting her forest green dress robes. The light reflected in her green eyes and her necklace, shaped like silver vines, sparkled dangerously. She looked like heaven.

Ginny looked up at him, staring at her. "Everything okay", she asked shyly, staring back at him. "Everything is absolutely perfect" he replied. They danced silently for a time, both enjoying the beauty of the evening. "I'm glad I came", Ginny said finally, looking back up into his beautiful blue eyes. "I'm glad you did too", he replied quietly, "Why don't we go outside, it's hot in here."

They stepped out into the magical, fairy-lit courtyard. A path wandered away among the bushes, which looked to be full of students. Lighting up the glourious late night was a near full moon, which made the night look like a picture from a cheesy romantic film. Neville was Nervous. It was the perfect setting, with the music from the Yule Ball floating out onto the magnificent lawn.

As they set out along the path, Neville fought with himself silently. 'Maybe she has reasons that she doesn't want to tell you his conscience told him, 'Or maybe she's using you. Maybe she has someone else, but they couldn't bring her so she turned to you.' 'Hey! Aren't you supposed to be on my side?' he scolded his mind. 'And maybe she absolutely loves you and just isn't ready it quickly added.

"Ginny…"he began. She looked up at him as they walked, her eyes alight and reflecting her happiness. "I'm really glad you decided to come. I mean… I've… We've been in love for so long Gin, and I love being able to let people see us together. I love being able to walk with you and know you're my girlfriend. I love you Ginny."

She intertwined her fingers with his as they walked and stood on tiptoe to kiss his cheek. "I love you too Neville" she whispered, "I'm sorry we couldn't tell anyone about us. But Ron…Ron would flip if he knew. But Neville," she bit her lip in a cute and thoughtful manner, "I'm ready to face him. I want people to know. About us…I want everyone to know that I love you."

Sometime during the conversation they had stopped in the middle of the path. "But Gin, your family. I don't want them mad at you" he replied softly.

"I don't care what my family thinks. I love you Neville" and she kissed him. It was unlike any kiss they had ever shared. Those had been hidden, secret, stolen in dark corridors and empty classrooms. This was out in the open, full of love, and absolutely perfect.

When they walked back in, 20 minutes later, they passed Harry and Ron in the doorway. Ginny grabbed Neville's hand and kept walking. He never knew whether or not the boys saw them, but he was happy. She wanted him. She wanted to be seen with him.

They met the next afternoon for lunch in the Great Hall. Sitting together and smiling, holding hands under the table, and dodging the occasional glares from Ron, Neville was entirely happy. "I hope you had fun last night" he said quietly to her as they got up to leave.

She looked at him and smiled, the sun reflecting on her gorgeous hair, and kissed him. "It was absolutely perfect."

The End (obviously)

A/N Ok, I know that was kind of unrealistic, but I liked it a lot. Please review.
