You were always a very shy person. Your friends are the golden trio and your absolute best friend is Neville Longbottom. Apart from them, the only other people you're not shy around are the twins and Ginny Weasley. Beyond them, you don't really talk to anyone else.

You usually spend a lot of time in the library. Neville was the first to notice your love for books. He always admired everything you did, but he knew you only saw him as a best friend.

In first year, when it was your birthday you woke up to see your presents at the end of your bed. You opened them all and went to write thank you letters to everyone but your owl brought one more to you. You thought this to be odd because you'd already received presents from all your family and friends. You opened the parcel carefully and realised it was a book. Not just any book, the book you'd always wanted. You brushed your hand over the perfect fresh cover. There was a note inside the book. You took it out and read it:

Dear (y/n), happy birthday.
Love from

Is all it said. You were extremely confused and frustrated, you hadn't told anyone you wanted that particular book and you really wanted to thank the person who gave it to you.

After that you received gifts on Christmas and your birthday every year for five years from the mystery person. It became a normal thing to receive these gifts. You never stopped hunting for the person who gave them to you though. You'd never found the person responsible, until sixth year...

You sit comfortably in the library. You haven't received your birthday present from the mystery person and you really wanted to catch them this year, all you wished to do was thank them.

You get out all the notes from them and place them on the table. All twelve of them have the same words for the two occasions. The ones for Christmas say:
Dear (y/n), Merry Christmas.
Love from

And the ones for you birthday say: Dear (y/n), happy birthday.
Love from

As you stare intently at the notes someone places a parcel in front of you. You look up to see Neville, your best friend, standing there looking nervous. You look at the parcel and back up at him confused. He takes his wand out and waves it over all the notes. Suddenly an extra word appears at the end of them all.

Love from Neville.

You smile at the notes and then look up at Neville with tears of joy in your eyes. Neville pushes the parcel toward you. You open it to reveal a beautiful (your house colour) bracelet. On top of it is a little torn piece of parchment saying: Be my girlfriend?

You get up and jump into Neville's arms causing him to chuckle. "I take that as a yes?" he asks. You nod and squeeze into him tighter. After all this time, the right guy for was standing by your side the whole time.
