Chapter 3

Neville was surprised, how could she be ok and act like her mother isn't there anymore? How could she smile and laugh and be happy? He began backing up, confused and upset. It was at was ok, until it happened. He tripped over a stick, that stupid stick. He fall straight on his butt and Luna and Harry looked at where he would always hide. Luna began giggling very loudly and Harry looked more confused than with the Thersals. Neville got up and looked straight at Luna and her smile and turned around and began running away. He didn't look back, even though Luna started yelling for Neville to come back. He finally got out of the Foribben Forrest, and stopped. He stood there and a tear drop came down his cheek.

When he finally came in, it was lunch time. He got to the Great Hall and sat as far away from his friends as possible. Harry came in after Neville and smiled at him, the smile you give when you are trying to calm someone down. Neville frowned and looked the other way, he didn't want to talk to Harry because he was scared Harry would tease him. Luna came in after Harry and sat at the Ravenclaw table, where she began talking to some people who were looking as though she was weird. She then went silent and began looking at Neville, the dreamy look, her normal look. She finally got up and went over to sit next to Harry and Ron. Ron never did really like Luna, but he listened as though he was interested. A few minutes later, Ginny and Hermione came in; Ginny tapped Neville on the back and smiled at him. Neville loved having Ginny as a friend and he could trust her. Ginny went and sat next to Luna, where it began to be where everyone wanted to be. Everyone was laughing and talking and Neville began to get upset, so he got up and started heading toward to the greenhouse.

Upset and pissed, he finally got there to find out Professor Sprout wasn't even there. He gave up and started heading toward the Gryffindor common room, where he thought he could sleep and wake up before dinner. He got to the Fat Lady and he was just about to say the password, when he was gripped by his wrist. The Fat Lady began giggling and she said she would see them later. Neville was terrified and began trying to get the hand off his wrist, but the person wouldn't let go. He finally realized he never saw who the person was, so he finally looked away from his wrist. It was Ginny, and she seemed ... happy.

"Let go off my wrist!" he began protesting. He was offended that she was pulling him everywhere, but her usually doing that. She was the strong one, he was the weak one and yet they still clicked.

Finally, Ginny stopped and put him on a bench and crossed her arms in front of her chest."You know you can't hide from Harry and Luna.", she began.

"Yes I can..." Neville protesting, standing up and acting like he's the tough one, but was interrupted be Ginny.

"No, you can't! Harry is one of your best friends and Luna is the love of your life. You told me that you would do anything for Harry and you risk your life for Luna. You can't last a day without Harry talking to you at every meal and Luna always smiling and laughing. You love them both too much to not talk to them."

"Well, I can try. You don't rule my life, Ginny! I'm tired of being an nobody and finally I have someone who likes me, and I'm happy. Now she likes I'm a laughing stalk and Harry is better."

"Harry doesn't like her and you know that. He likes Cho and that's all. You can get Luna, and I can't even get Harry to look at me differently, instead of Ron's little sister. You know what I give up, I try to make you happy but you complain so much. Here I'll tell you the truth, Luna doesn't like you. She is dating Roger Renard, my year in our house. I've haven't told you because I didn't want you to feel like I do. Good-Bye, Neville Longbottom!" She stumped away, crying. Neville stood there amazed, and started running toward Ginny and grabbed her face and kissed her. She was surprised and kissed him back.

(Soooooo, I'm not a fan of Ninny but I thought it would be good with the story plot for right now. Also Roger Renard is not a real character, he made by my friend Emily Z. from ) ( See yay next week)
