CHAPTER 2 OH YEAH

NEVILLE'S POINT OF VIEW

I can't believe it! I think things are finally turning around for me. I'M doing patrols, because I'M a prefect! Can you believe it?! Me! Of all people! Gran was so proud, she said she was glad she had me as a grandson. I was so happy I had tears in my eyes.

Every Gryfinndor congratulated me. Even the Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws cheered for me when my name was called. I finally feel like I'm important. I wish my parents were here to see this. Luna says they would be really proud, she's a really good friend. Over the years, we became friends, best friends in fact. She was really understanding and silly and nice once you get to know her.

Sigh. Could life get any better? Apparently, Hermione says I have blossomed. Well, I don't like to brag, but I guess I look better than I did last year. I like to look presentable now, it gives me more confidence in life.

I fixed the crooks in my teeth. I built up my body a little, the chubbiness is gone. My skin is cleared out, Ginny says my voice got "sexy." And, I actually had two girlfriends over the year. But, I guess girls like me as a friend better.

But anyways, as I walked (more like skipped) down the chilly corridors, I heard- was that crying?

I followed the noise, aw....it was someone crying. It was a girl crying. Girls' feelings shouldn't be hurt enough to make them cry. Who in their right mind would want to make a girl cry?

As I came closer to the noise, I noticed a figured slumped up against the wall.

It was Cho. Who made an angel like her cry? Me being the gentle man I am, approached her. She looked startled at first and started to wipe away her tears.

"Whats wrong, Cho?"

"I- I was just reminiscing about Cedric."

Neville felt bad for her, it was Christmas time, and she shouldn't be reminded of that. He knew how it felt to lose some one who you really care about. He was not about to let her wallow in her misery. Neville plucked up his Gryfinndor courage and pulled he into a hug. She seemed surprised, but was thankful for the comfort and hugged back. After her sobbing ceased, they pulled away.

"Thank you, Neville. You really are a great friend."

What was this? Neville felt, butterflies? Hmm, it felt kinda good, didn't it?

"Uh, no problem. Anytime really."

Cho suddenly blushed.

"Neville?"

"yes?"

"Merry Christmas."

She looked up and Neville realized they were standing under a mistletoe. Now it was Neville's turn to blush. Cho leaned in. Neville followed suit. Their kiss was entrancing. She wrapped her arms around his neck, and he pulled her closer by her waist.

They broke apart. Neville looked flustered and Cho happier. She turned around slowly and hopped of to her common room while waving Neville goodbye. She was more bubbly than usual and her roommates noticed too. She was singing in the shower. Weird.....

Neville danced his way through the common room, receiving weird looks from everyone. But he didn't care, he went to bed with a smile on his face. He thought to himself,

' OH YEAH! THIS IS GOING TO BE ONE AWESOME YEAR, TAKE THAT FERRET!

A/N: weird couple I know! But I love Neville he's awesome! And so, I thought since Cho and Neville are kinda quiet and both lost someone, they would fit together. Anyways, PEACE OUT SUCKA!
