For the people who wondered what the heck happened to Lavender...here is the answer. Thanks for the reviews. They always make my day.
He kissed her on the neck, and whispered in her ear, "I'm sorry for every time I made you cry. For ever time I never said sorry, and for every time I couldn't do this because I was scared."
Hermione smiled, and let her love hold her.
All The Small Things
They stayed in an embrace, until….
"Ron?"
It was Lavender. She had been standing there watching them for the past minute.
"Oh, shit," cursed Ron under his breath. "Um, hi Lavender. Look, I can explain…"
"No need, Ron. Seamus and I have been hooking up while you have been at quidditch practice anyway," said Lavender, seemingly overly calm, considering she had caught her boyfriend holding another girl. Ron and Hermione sat there and watched Lavender leave.
"Ron, can you help me up. My legs are asleep."
"Oh, yeah, sure."
They walked in silence to the Great Hall. Hermione couldn't help but notice that Ron wasn't even holding her hand anymore. Ron was preoccupied with keeping himself steady. "Lavender was cheating on me? Couldn't she have just broken up with me? Why did she seem so upset when I threw her off if she is seeing Seamus? Why? Why? Why?" Ron contemplated all of the possible reasons for Lavender's strange behavior. He barely noticed when they walked into the Great Hall.
"Ron, stop standing there like a dumb nut and sit down," joked Harry. Ron blushed red with embarrassment, and quickly sat down. In a matter of minutes Ron had recovered and was enthusiastically shoveling food onto his plate and into his mouth. Hermione and Ginny chatted and giggled in hushed tones.
"Do you ever have the feeling that they are talking about us?" Harry asked Ron.
"Sometime. More often I have the feeling that they are cursing me, or something. I always check my hair color and my teeth when they do that."
Harry and Ron laughed over the chatter of their loves, although no one else knew, except Neville and Luna.
Later that day……
Neville and Luna were sitting in the snow, next to the lake, on the grounds after class. Neville was fiddling with his radio while Luna kept on the look out for White-Backed-Peep-Eyed-Flimgles. Neville laughed lightly as he saw his girlfriend jump at a lump in the snow.
"I almost has him!" shrieked Luna in pleasure. Neville finally found a song the suited him.

All the, small things
True care, truth brings
I'll take, one lift
Your ride, best trip
Always, I know
You'll be at my show
Watching, waiting, commiserating
Say it ain't so, I will not go, turn the lights off, carry me home
Na, Na...
Late night, come home
Work sucks, I know
She left me roses by the stairs
Surprises let me know she cares
Say it ain't so, I will not go, turn the lights off, carry me home
Na, Na...
Say it ain't so, I will not go, turn the lights off, carry me home
Keep your head still I'll be your thrill, the night will go on, my little
redmill
Say it ain't so, I will not go, turn the lights off, carry me home
Keep your head still, I'll be your thrill, the night will go on, the night will
go on, my little redmill
Neville held onto Luna, as they got lost in the music. She looked up into his brown eyes with her bright blue eyes. Neville reached his hand behind her head, and combed her messy blond hair with his fingers. Luna leaned closer to Neville and brushed her cold lips against his. Neville pulled her into a deep embrace, deepening the kiss. Luna lost her cloak, but she was perfectly warm in Neville's strong arms. They turned, Luna was on her back and Neville was on top of her, supporting himself with his hands on either side of Luna's head. He pulled away for a brief moment to take a look at the beautiful girl who he was so fortunate as to have fallen in love with. He picked up her cloak and wrapped it around Luna, who was shivering.
"I love you, Luna. I love you for all your small and crazy things."
Luna smiled and turned away as her cheeks turned a bright pink. Neville got himself up, and offered his hand to Luna. She took it, and Neville took off his cloak to wrap it around a vigorously shivering Luna. She smiled, and leaned up next to Neville as they walked swiftly into the castle. When they entered the castle, Neville stopped for a second, pushed Luna's hair away from her face and kissed her lightly on the cheek.
"Wait," Neville turned around. "I love you, too, Neville. More then words can say," Luna said walking up to Neville so that she had to look up as to see his face. They embraced, and did not move despite many snide remarks.
Well, I like the Luna/Neville ship. I always feel like they were a lot more sexual then we once thought. I am considering ending this story soon. I'm going to end it at Dumbledore's funeral, then I think I am going to write another story which will be a collection of one shots that will be a bunch of conversations that happened, but didn't. I'll explain more when I start working on it.
Review guys. Make my day...please. I have the next chapter written and ready for when I get my reviews.
