Impossible (A Neville Longbottom Love Story) (On Hiatus)

Chapter 9

"So, how did it go?" Seamus asked as we sat down with the four boys and Hermione in the Great Hall.

"Yeah, you guys were gone when I got up." Dean chimed in.

"I guess I'm staying with Ron's family over break," I said, smiling.

"Blimey, another girl." Ron teased.

"Good luck." Hermione joked from across the table.

"What do you mean?" I asked, furrowing my eyebrows.

"It's a really good family," Harry said, grinning.

"The worst part is putting up with the twins. And Percy, but he should be moving out not long after summer starts, we won't have to deal with him the whole time." Ron said referring to the famous pranksters and 'Head Boy'.

"It can't be any worse than it was back at the manor. Draco is a prick and throws a fit if he doesn't get what he wants. My father was just as bad, except he had more power over people. Mother wasn't that bad, just a bit strict." I said, frowning at the thought.

"You haven't had the twins hide spiders in your bed," Ron said, shuddering.

"Well, luckily, I'm not scared of spiders," I said, smiling.

"Anyways," Hermione cut in, "You'll probably share a room with Ginny since she's the only girl. You'll love her."

"Where is she?" I asked looking around for a ginger-haired girl.

"Right over there," Seamus said, pointing down the table.

"Hey, Gin! Come here for a minute!" Ron said loudly, almost yelling.

A red-haired girl stood up, walking over to join us.

"Ginny this is Arista, she is going to stay with us during the summer," Ron said.

"It's nice to meet you. There will finally be another girl in the house!" She said, excited.

"It's nice to meet you, too," I said smiling.

I don't think life will be so bad, after all.
