Neville and I carried on like that for a couple of weeks. One day we were walking from herbology and I looked up at him. He had a genuine smile on his face. We didn't have any classes after herbology so we walked and sat under a tree overlooking the black lake. He took his arm from around my waist and his smile dropped. Alright, this is the time. "Hey Nev?" "Yeah, Y/n?" "I actually love you. And not just like a friend anymore. I can't help but think you feel the same way about me?" "Yeah I do. I have for a couple years now. The way I've been treating you around Hannah, is the way I've been wanting to treat you all the time." I smiled at his words. "You think maybe, we could do that all the time now?" "Yes. Of course. Y/n, I love you." I smiled, bit my lip, and looked down. "I love you too Neville." I laid down with my head in his lap and started watching the clouds. We just sat there and talked for hours on end. Before we knew it, it was almost supper time. We walked into the great hall with the large group of students hand in hand. Hannah just happened to be inches behind us. She walked up to Neville and whispered something in his ear. He said "No Hannah. You don't seem to understand. I'm in a happy relationship and you just keep barging in and trying to ruin it! That's not okay!" This Neville didn't seem like my calm quiet cinnamon roll. He was angry and honestly it was kinda hot. "This 'relationship' of yours doesn't seem to me like it's real." she said in that annoying tone of hers. Neville looked down at me with a smile that had a hint of mischief behind it. I nodded and he leaned down and kissed me. I stood on my tip toes and placed my hands behind his neck as he placed his on my waist. He pulled back from me and I shot Hannah a sass glare and said, in a very sassy tone, "Is that real enough for you?" She stomped off and we went and sat across from Hannah, a different one, and he congratulated me on finally pushing the other Hannah over the limit.
----------The Next Day----------

Today was Saturday so we had the whole day to do whatever we wanted. Neville asked me last night after dinner to meet him outside of my common room at 9 and we'd go to Hogsmeade together. I, of course, told him yes. One of my friends, Wendy, was in my dorm waiting for me after breakfast. She started going through all my clothes and picked out a pair of jeans, a white sweater, my pink converse type shoes, a pink scrunchie, and some pearl earrings. I got dressed and went outside to see Neville standing there in a pair of jeans and an old sweatshirt I'm pretty sure he's had since first year. He smiles at my outfit and I smile back at him. "You're so beautiful, my love," he tells me, causing me to smile even bigger. "You don't look so bad yourself Mr. Casual." I tell him jokingly. He takes my hand and leads me to Hogsmeade. When we arrive, we notice it's a lot less packed than usual. We go into honeydukes and Neville tells me, "Pick out whatever you like. Anything for my beautiful Girlfriend." He squeezes my hand before letting me go. I take a couple of chocolate frogs, a bag of Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans, and some jelly slugs. I go back to Neville and we checkout before walking out of the store. Not long after we walk out, it starts pouring down rain. "Im sorry, Love. I didn't know it was going to rain today!" He exclaims while taking off his sweatshirt to keep me from getting wet. "It's fine. The weather doesn't matter as long as I'm with you." We begin to run back to the castle and when we arrive he asks, "Do you want me to take you back to your common room or do you want to stay with me?" "I think I'll stay with you if that's fine," I say leaning back into him. "Of course it is, Baby," he says while picking me up to carry me bridal style and kissing my forehead.
