Greenhouse, Plants,...Neville?

Draco Malfoy

A week after the Yule Ball was announced and I was so excited! Me and Neville would be dancing oh so elegantly together. We would be the last ones to dance and still our feet wouldn't ache. He would lean in and-

"Y/N!!!" Hermione shouts shaking me as roughly as possible.

I jolt up and rub my eyes. 

"Hermioneeee." I whine.

"Y/N! Guess what just happened!!!" She says while fixing my hair up.

"What..?" I say still annoyed that Hermione had woken me up from my most amazing dream.

"I'll tell you but you cannot tell anyone!" She says holding out her pinkie.

"Ummm... what are you doing?" I say being the most clueless pure blood wizard.

"Pinkie promise! Just hold your pinkie out and then we wrap it together and you cannot break the promise!" She says.

We do the pinkie promise and she begins, " Viktor Krum.. he asked me to the Yule Ball!" 

"What?! That's amazing Hermione! I'm still waiting for Neville to ask me.." I say.

"He hasn't asked you? Maybe he thinks since your a thing you'll be going together without him having to ask." Hermione tells me in a way to comfort.

" I guess." I say while standing up scratching my head.

at breakfast

Neville looks at me and waves.

"Hi Neville." I say while grabbing waffles and pouring syrup on them, still upset he hasn't asked me to the Yule Ball.

"Tea?" He asks while holding the tea pot.

I nod and he pours it in my cup, "Thank you."  I say quietly.

"You okay, my love?" Neville asks placing his hand on top of mine.

"Yeah. I just... ate some bad fruit." I lie.

"Oh! I have a herb for that if your stomach hurts later. Just ask me and I'll put it in your tea." He says will smiling.

"Thanks Neville." I say smiling.

after breakfast 

I'm walking down the hallways alone, because Neville is walking Harry and Ron to their class since they have a different schedule than us. 

When I turn a right, I see Draco Malfoy, fantastic. 

"Hello, pretty girl. How are you?" He says with a grin that reminds of Snape's grin.

"I- I'm okay..?" I say softly.

"Where's Herb Nerd hm?" He says walking closer to me. Our face now inches away.

My eyes widen and my whole body freezes.

"Draco- I- what are you doing?" I say stepping back so we are at least a good 3 feet away from eachother.

Neville finished walking Harry and Ron to their class so he does the same route that I did to head to our class. 

Draco comes closer to me, "How about you and me, the Yule Ball?" Draco says right as Neville walks to the corner we are on.

He stands there in shock. Is Y/N going to the Yule Ball with Draco?! Neville's eyes gloss and he runs to the bathroom.

I laugh in disbelief. Is he serious right now?! 

"What're you laughing at!?" Draco says getting annoyed.

"Your joking right? One, your extremely rude to people, two, I'm in a relationship and you clearly know this, and three," I give him another hard slap across the face.

"Ugh, as if.." I say with a little giggle since that was a reference from a Muggle movie that Draco would obviously not get.

I get to class very late and see Neville's eyes red and glossed over. I gasp and run over to him.

"Neville! Are you okay?!" I say cupping his face in my hands and wiping his tears with my thumb.

He shakes his head 'no' and moves his face from my hands. My jaw drops. I stand up and slowly walk to sit down next to another person since Neville clearly doesn't want to be near me.It makes it even worse since he have all of our classes together.

at lunch 

What could I have possibly done to make Neville be like this?!

I tell Hermione everything and she rubs my back.

As I tell her I accidentally let out a whimper and after that it's just a whole waterfall. Everybody in the great hall is staring at me, even Neville. He looked at me with sorrow in his eyes. He never wanted to see you crying. And it made him even sadder because he knew it was because of him.

After I stopped crying I went to Gryffindor Tower, not knowing Neville was following.

"C-caput D-draconis" I said with a lump in my throat.

"Oh sweetheart what happened?" Asked the Fat Lady in the portrait. 

Neville listened to their conversation.

"Neville.." I couldn't even say without crying more. 

"Tch, tch, tch.. Young love hurts. It's how life works." The Fat Lady in the portrait said.

" I-I don't know what I- did" sniff  "I tried to-to comfort h-him and he- pushed me away.." I let out a sob.

"I love Neville- I really really do..-." I say sobbing now.

 Neville hears this and just runs up to me and hugs me so tight, "I'm so so sorry my love.. I was just a bit jealous that you were going to the Yule Ball with Draco.." He says cupping my face.

"What?! Who said that? I'd bloody kill myself if I went to the Yule Ball with Draco Malfoy. I even slapped him in the face again!" I said smiling.

I pull Neville in for a rough and slow kiss. The Fat Lady in the portrait looks away. Hermione, Ron, Harry, George and Fred, Seamus, Dean, and a few more Gryffindors just stand there watching us. I don't care, I missed Neville. 

I pull away out of breath, practically gasping for air. 

"Would you like to go to the Yule Ball with me Y/N?" Neville asks.

I nod and give him a big hug.

Seamus high fives Neville and Dean gives him a thumbs up. We all go in the Common Room and they decide it's time to see what's inside the egg that Harry got from the First Task.

Once Harry opens it, an ear breaking scream comes out, everyone groaning and telling him to shut the egg.

"You okay?" Neville asks me.

I nod, but my ear drums are still a little weary.
