Neville- she's looking at you again," Ginny whispered, nudging the oblivious boy. No one could honestly call it 'looking'- you were practically eye-screwing him. Ginny had only said it that way so Neville wouldn't choke on his dinner and make a fool of himself.
He turned to look at your intense eyes and felt his face go hot. "N-no, she was probably just staring at how I just ate my piece of pie weirdly." He shook his head as he turned from your burning stare and back to the Gryffindor table.
Ginny made a face at Neville, who was using his fork to play with his food. Neville cleared his throat, feeling Ginny's annoyed and exasperated stare burning into his soul. "So- err- do you think Harry, Hermione, and Ron are all right? It hasn't been too long, it's just the start of the year, but I do hope they haven't given up on trying to basically save humanity..."
Ginny then gave Luna a pointed stare, urging her to say something, as Neville probably wouldn't listen to her at the moment. Luna caught her stare and spoke up. "Neville, I am sure the three are doing just fine. Although I'd like to inform you about some Fangwig Bizzid's- a brand new find on new creatures based on my father's observations, I think you need to talk to Y/N. You know, the pretty, clever and 'hot' Slytherin you always talk about?"
If it was possible, Neville flushed even more than before as he shook his head. "What? I never talk about her..." He muttered.
Ginny rolled her eyes and continued to eat her breakfast, as well as Luna who watched Neville with a concerned look in her eyes.
When Charms rolled around midday, the Gryffindors and the Slytherins started showing up in Flitwick's class. You were one of the first ones in, getting your books, parchment, and quills ready for the class. When more fellow classmates started to arrive, you waited for your friend to come in and sit by you.
As soon as she did- her being the last one in, Professor Flitwick spoke up from his desk. "Alright, class. Although I have nothing against any of the houses, mind you, it seems that your two houses right now- Gryffindor and Slytherin- seem to... quarrel more often than other houses. You may think it silly or strange of me but as of now and today, you will have new seats. Permanent seats for this whole year. One Gryffindor next to one Slytherin.
"You will see your names glow, hovering above the new seat you will be at for the next number of weeks you will be here at Hogwarts- until you graduate and leave. Please try to find your name and take your new seat."
Most of the class groaned, but you didn't mind. All the houses were great, but because you were just a tiny bit biased, you knew Slytherin was the best of the best.
When you saw one new name appear hovering above your desk; John Welborne, you stood up, gathered your items and went to the side of the classroom to try spot your new seat.
Your best friend (from Slytherin) Olivia frowned sadly at you as she watched you move away. A Gryffindor- whom you learned to be John, took the seat beside her and gave her a small smile, introducing himself.
At least Olivia wasn't going to be stuck with someone that didn't seem horrid, yet.
When you spotted your name, you saw that it was next to the boy who caught your attention; Neville Longbottom. Although you were extremely giddy on the inside, you walked coolly and calmly towards the boy who diverted his attention elsewhere when you sat by him.
"Hi, Neville," you started. He nodded in acknowledgment. You huffed, knowing this was probably all the interaction you'd get with him if you couldn't help it. As the teacher started, you decided to try show Neville that you really liked him (in more ways than one). Whilst the professor was facing the blackboard, you 'subconsciously' pushed your quill off your desk.
