Chapter 3
Harry raced down the stairs, pushing Ron in order to win. They laughed as they tumbled down the last couple of stairs.
"I won!" Ron yelled as he jumped up from the ground. Harry picked his glasses up off the floor and got up off the floor slowly.
"Hell no. You so didn't win! We both won!" Harry protested. Ron shook his head.
"Nope mate, I so won," Ron argued.
"What the heck are you two arguing about?" Ginny asked as she walked down the stairs slowly. Harry's jaw dropped. He closed it quickly and whistled.
"Dang girl! You are so looking fine," Harry replied. Ginny gave him a look that asked him if he was feeling all right.
"Thank you. You're not looking bad either," she said with a giggle. Harry pulled her to him and kissed her softly. Ron made gagging sounds until he felt two small hands slide around his waist.
"Shh . . Let them be in love," Hermione whispered as she came in front of him. He smiled and pulled her in for a searing kiss, which earned Ginny's gagging.
"I'm walking on sunshine! Yeah!" Neville sang as he slid down the banister. He jumped off at the last moment, striking a pose. He turned and caught Luna who had followed him.
"Thanks," she said.
"Couldn't let you fall. That isn't what a gentleman does," Neville said. Ron snorted and nudged Neville.
"Since when are you a gentleman?" Ron asked him. Neville shot him a dirty look.
"Since I started dating Luna," he replied. Hermione and Ginny gasped, looked at one another, and squealed as Neville put Luna back safely on the ground. Luna laughed and nodded. Ron and Harry patted him on the back.
"Way to go Neville," Ron congratulated.
"Shall we adjourn to the Great Hall for a healthy breakfast?" Luna asked. Ron laughed.
"Healthy? Heck, we don't care that it is healthy. As long as it is food," Ron replied as he took Hermione's hand.
"You only care about food don't you?" Hermione asked him. He shook his head.
"No that is wrong. I care about food and you," he said, tapping her nose gently. She laughed and rolled her eyes.
"Let's go before all the good food is gone!" Ginny exclaimed, racing out of the portrait hole, Harry in tow. The others looked at one another before racing through the portrait hole.
