The hall was not decorated with bright Christmas decoration . There were no Christmas trees or indeed no Hagrid to carry them. He had , had to run and hide after hosting a support harry potter party . Tonight was the final DA session and Lots of the members were downhearted .
"this is going to be the worst Christmas yet …" said many. The atmosphere of the school had certainly dropped. The lessons dragged by slower by the hour until Luna sat in charms thought she might Feint with boredom . Then finally it was over . She ran back to her common room and dropped her bag under her bed then tucked her wand behind her ear and set off for a wander round the school till DA started .Meanwhile Neville was doing his last bits of homework and kept bringing his Da coin out and turning it over and over . Finally it was time , closing his book with a soft thump he joined Ginny and the rest of the Gryffindor DA group and they set off for the room of requirement .Once the door had appeared they slipped through making sure there were no slytherins or Non DA students nearby. The room itself seemed to recognise Christmas ,in one corner stood a small Christmas tree with red ,blue and yellow baubles .Round the room tinsel sparkled and the ceiling was adorned with mistletoe and wreaths . Finally everyone arrived .
"soo" started Ginny " this is the last Da For this year , however you guys know to come here whenever you need to ." a few people looked happier with this thought .
"So today I thought we could mayby just practise anything really … just get into small groups and try different spells." The idea was greeted with general nods of the head and smiles so they separated into small groups. Luna went with Ginny , Neville as well as fred and George and Angelina .They decided to practise simple stunning charms and took turns to fall backwards onto the carefully prepared cushions. Then as people begin to glance at their watches The weasley twins offered out sweets which people gingerly took and ate … the room was filled with Various animals all of a sudden and then back to amazed students
"Animagus aniseeds!" called fred
"5 knuts for 10.. what a bargain!" called George .Eventually everyone left leaving Ginny Luna and Neville behind .
"coming ginny ?" called dean from the door way and Ginny bounded after him.
Neville went to the mirror and removed the torn picture of his parents gazing at it with a small tear in his eye .Luna walked over and gently turned him round .
"They love you , you know ..your parents"
"I know .. its just hard"
"I understand " Luna said and hugged him carefully so as not to damage the picture .
"Mistletoe " said Neville glancing at the ceiling
"probably full of nargles " said luna withought thinking .
"what is a nargle anyway Lu ?"
"Er-" Luna didn't finish her sentence . Neville had turned his head to face her and kissed her and she did not move just stood rooted to the spot holding Neville and kissing him back .Above them the mistletoe grew .
