Chapter 5 - Adorably Clumsy

Your POV

We walked up to his room in silence.

"Neville" I said taking his hand stopping him before we got to his room.

"Yeah" He mumbled looking down at our interlaced hands.

"Are you okay, you seem upset. Did the girls say something to you?" I asked rubbing my thumbs over the back of his hands subconsciously.

He took a deep breath and shook his head. "No they just wanted to make sure you're okay" He lied.

He's lying, but why. I decided not to pry.

"Okay" I smiled.

We went into his room and he searched for his Herbology books.

"Neville, you have a Mimbulus Mimbletonia I thought they were hard to get because of their rarity" I said picking up the pot and laying on his bed examining the intriguing plant.

"Yes but I have a supply" He said grabbing the last book and putting it on top of the large tower of Herbology books in his arms.

"Do you need some help?" I asked giggling and putting the plant back.

"No it's okay I got it" He said as I walked over to help him. He tripped on his bag and the books fell all over the place and Neville fell on top of me.

Neville's POV

I open my eyes to see that I fell on top of Y/n. I could feel my cheeks heat up.

"Take me out to dinner first" She giggled. I panicked trying to get off her but I ended up making it worse.

"I-I'm so s-sorry I didn't m-mean to-". I ramble as she cut me off by gently placing her hand on my cheek.

"Shhh it's okay Neville, I was just making a joke. Take a breath" She said.

I did what she said and took a breath. I moved off her and helped her up. I look at the books scattered on the floor.

"I'm really sorry, I'm a clumsy fool" I said rubbing the back of my neck.

She moved the hair out of my eyes and smiled softly.

"Don't say that about yourself, you're brilliant" Y/n got on her toes and kissed my cheek. I touched my cheek mesmerized. She used her powers to pick up all the books and put them on the bed. I lay down on the bed taking one of the books from the pile. Y/n lays down with me with her head on my chest, she hums softly.

Your POV

I snuggled into Neville as he started showing me plants of various shapes and sizes that interested him the most. It's so adorable how passionate and caring he is for these plants. He is an amazing young man and he deserves more credit than he gets. He gave me a brief overview of what they learnt over the past two years and even offered me to take some of his books to study.

"Neville thank you for everything and thank you for not forcing me to tell you about my parents." I said looking up at him. He smiled.

"No problem, I will never making you do anything you dont want to" He said.

Where does such a sweet and perfect man come from.

Neville's POV

"Y/n can I ask about your powers?" I asked trying to decide whether I should wrap my arm around her or not.

"Sure what do you want to know?" She said lacing her fingers with mine.

"A-After that thing with Malfoy today, I umm I-I noticed your nose was bleeding. Was it because of your powers?" I stuttered nervously. She sighs and nods.

"Yeah lifting a person uses a lot more energy than lifting small things like books. I haven't learnt how to do it without making my nose bleed yet. I mean I certainly couldn't use my powers at home." She said sadly.

"I-I could help you, you can practice on me" I looked down at her and squeeze her hand lightly.

"Thanks Neville you're so sweet, but I will only do small things with you. I can't always control what happens" She looked up at me. Godric I want to kiss her so bad. She smiled and took my tie in her hand and made it invisible.

I smiled with her and touch her hand, she made my hand disappear too. We giggle and she showed me more tricks she could do with her powers

Your POV

Soon we both grew tired our eye lids too heavy to keep open. We fell asleep in each others arms. Neville's arm wrapped around my stomach spooning me as our legs got tangled together.

Ron's POV

Harry and I walked into the room equally as tired not noticing the company we had. We both got changed and crashed on our beds and went to sleep. In the morning I woke Harry up.

"Time to get ready" I said

"Did he really sleep in his robes?" Harry asked laughing.

"Must have been too busy reading about plants" I said rolling my eyes and walking over to wake Neville up. That was before I saw Y/n cuddled up with him. I had to cover my mouth to stop myself from laughing too loud and waking them both up.

"Harry he's sleeping with Y/n" I said.

Harry got up and ran over to see.

"20 quid if we wake Neville up and he freaks out when he notices how close their lips are" I whispered

"No way that's bound to happen. How about we hide and wake Y/n up and see how she reacts. My bets are 20 quid she doesn't get embarrassed and wakes Neville up." Harry said.

"Alright and I win if she sneaks out without waking Neville" I said.

"Deal" Harry said and we both hid.

I threw something at Y/n to wake her up.

Your POV

I whine not wanting to wake up yet. I felt strong arms wrapped around my waist and a warm peppermint breath tickling my lips. I open my eyes to see Neville's face so close to mine, our lips almost touching. I tried to move but he just pulled me closer. I tap Neville on the shoulder a few times until he woke up. Neville wasn't completely awake but he still realised how close we were and panicked, he pulled back and fell off the bed hitting the floor with a groan.

"Oh my god Neville are you okay" I said looking at him on the ground. He nods.

"I'm good" He mumbled. I used my powers to lift him back onto the bed.

"You owe me 20 quid Ron and I told you he would freak out" Harry said. Ron huffed and handed him the money.

"You were watching us sleep, that's a bit creepy guys" I said.

"Y/n your nose is bleeding just there" Ron said pointing to his own nose showing where it was.

"O-Oh right" I mumbled holding my hand to my nose and getting up.

"Thanks again Neville, umm I'll see you in class" I said rushing to get back to my room.

"Wait Y/n, I'm sorry about the-" Neville said pointing to his nose.

"Don't apologise for anything, plus I decided to do it in the first place. See you later" I yelled running down the stairs.

Harry's POV

"So you and Y/n" I said smirking at Neville.

"W-We didn't do anything" He mumbled.
