Y/n needed a tutor for her Herbology class; despite being a Ravenclaw, who were thought to be geniuses, she really had to work for every grade she got. Herbology is her weak spot though, so she asked Neville Longbottom to tutor her.

"Neville, please. I'm barely passing, I need you." You pleaded.

"Okay, meet me in the library at 6." He smiled.

"Thank you!" I threw my arms around him. "I owe you big time."

"You say that every time." He let out a cute, heart melting laugh.

"I know, I know. But seriously."

In my spare time I had been setting up something awesome to give to Neville, I knew he'd absolutely love it.

I mentally smiled and went to my room to grab my books, then headed for the library.

"Hey y/n" Hermione smiled at me.

"Hey Hermione." I smiled back.

"What are you doing?"

"I'm waiting for Neville, he's tutoring me in Herbology."

"I see. Have fun." Her demeanor shifted a bit, making me nervous.

"Thanks."

I started studying for the big test while waiting on Neville.

I heard someone in front of me take a deep breath so I looked up and saw Neville.

"Hey Nev, come sit. Don't be shy."

He slowly came and sat next to me on the couch.

"W-where do you want to start?" He asked with a small stutter.

"Chapter 6? Is that okay?" I asked him and he nodded.

We studied for hours, occasionally Dumbledore would pass by us to make sure we were actually studying.

When he was talking about Devil's Snare, I zoned out. I got lost in thought while staring at his beautiful face.

I didn't even notice that he caught me.

"Y/n?" He asked while waving a hand in front of me.

"Sorry. I zoned out. Uh, all this studying is tiring."

"Let's take a break then." He closed the book and turned to me.

We really got to know each other, he's an amazing person and so sweet.

We joked around and laughed together until curfew.

I really had fun tonight with him.

He walked me to my dorm which was really sweet. The girls and I were talking about it all night.

"I think I might like Neville longbottom." I smiled at them.

They all ooh'd.

"Stop," I blushed. "I doubt he even likes me anyway. He probably thinks I'm stupid for being in Ravenclaw but not being good at Herbology."

"You're smart! We all have our bad subjects, you're not stupid."

"Thanks." I smiled. "I'm exhausted so I'm going to sleep. Night."

"Night." They all said to me.

Tonight was amazing.

Neville POV

I walked y/n to her house and went on my way back to mine.

Tonight was really fun, I love being around y/n. She's beautiful and smart and kind. She's perfect.

I saw Hermione and she came up to me.

"Hermione, it's almost curfew, why are you out?"

"You're my friend Neville, so please listen to me when I say that y/n is just using you for a good grade."

"What?" I scoffed. "No she's not. We had fun."

"She's always asking you to tutor her and she never returns the favor. Has she ever paid you back for anything?"

I thought for a moment.

"It's okay, I know when the time comes she will." I don't think y/n would do that to anyone.

"Neville, I'm serious. She's using you because you're easy to manipulate." Hermione really believed what she was saying.

Was y/n using me?

"But..."

"she could've asked any of her Ravenclaw friends, but she asked you because she knew you'd help her."

I instantly felt sad. Y/n had been using me.

"Goodnight Hermione." I walked away to my room and went straight to bed, although I couldn't sleep much.

I stayed up all night thinking about y/n. It was killing me.
