Neville Longbottom
One shot ^_^
You and Neville sat in his dorm room on a Saturday afternoon. You weren’t sure where his friends were, you remembered yesterday, you were at dinner and as people were getting up to leave Neville stopped you for a moment, gently tapping on your shoulder. “Y/n,” he pauses with a cough, “Would you like to come over to my room, erm tomorrow sometime in the afternoon?” You smiled before you nodded
“Of course, I’d love that. Won’t your friends be there though?” You were aware your boyfriend usually hung out with you alone, yes he could hang out with you around others but he preferred to be alone, with you. He chuckles a bit awkwardly before he says,
“Oh, right yeah, they won’t be there..they’ll be..busy.” Strange reaction from him, but you didn’t blame to ask questions. A frustrated groan brings you back to now, Neville sat on the edge of his bed, hunched over his parchment paper, keeping his ink on the floor. You were a bit confused why he didn’t just sit on the floor, or pull up a chair to either sit on or keep his ink on, but you didn’t question it. “What’s the matter?” You rose up from where you sat, crawling to where Neville was. You could see him tense a bit before relaxing, he sighs before he speaks up.
“S-sorry Y/n, I’m just uh..a bit stuck on this assignment, for potions, well not really an assignment, he gave me extra homework since I’ve been struggling..I need to list the ingredients of the Wit-sharpening potion but I just-“ He sighs, cutting himself off. “I just can’t remember the ingredients..and how to make it in general.” You grin softly at Neville, you pitied him but it was also kinda cute. “Sorry Y/n, I should’ve done this sooner, I had completely forgotten about it until we got on the topic of potions and I-“ You cut him off, maybe quicker than you intended.
“It’s okay! It’s okay! No harm done, here, let me help you out.” You slowly sat next to him, lost in thought for a minute or two before you said, “You need armadillo bile, one scarab beetle, one ginger root, and one newt spleen.” You carefully explained to Neville what you needed for the potion, and how to actually make it. Neville gratefully wrote similar things to what you had said, as he finished up he stood up, carefully putting his work on his nightstand before he walks over to you with a shy smile. “Do you think I could, erm..kiss you? On the cheek I mean.” *He said looking down, it was a bit funny to you that Neville still asked to kiss you but you also thought it was sweet, and to be fair to him you hadn’t had your first kiss on the lips yet.
“You can kiss me about anywhere, Neville.”
You pushed your cheek out to him for him to kiss, he laid a gentle peak with wide eyes before pulling away and hugging you.*
“Thank you, so so much. I’m sorry for making you help me, I don’t know what I would’ve done-“
Again, you cut him off by saying, “It’s perfectly fine, you can always ask for my help, I promise. If you didn’t had me you could’ve always gone to Hermione or any of your other friends.” You feel him gently shake his head in the crook of your neck.
“I like it when you help me more..I don’t know why.”

You laid on Neville’s chest, with his arm around you, you weren’t sure exactly how you started cuddling but it didn’t matter. Neville smelt fresh, like he took a shower today, he was warm, and held you gently, it felt special.
“So, where is Seamus, Dean, Ron, and Harry?” You ask slyly.
“Oh..I don’t know, I just told them to leave while you were coming over.” Neville didn’t mean to let the last part slip, and once he did he almost jumped, he sighs softly, you wouldn’t have known if you didn’t feel the way his chest moved. “Sorry…”
It was alright, you had a suspicion he kicked them out.
