How'd We End Up This Way?
Luna sat their in the great hall. The Ravenclaw table was well packed. She was hungry and well she sat at the closer to the doors area. Most of the 7th yeas sit here. She looked up to Neville sitting few sits away from her, looking down.
They haven't talked for a week and she messed him she had to admit. She saw her friends Ginny, Harry, Hermione and Ron walk in. They looked at Her then at Neville.
Luna let them go by Neville, he was there friend first it was okay with her she guessed she was used to the fact of being alone. She ate some pudding and look down. She tried to look like she was okay that it was just a normal day at Hogwarts but she knew it wasn't
Neville looked at Luna, it was killing him not to talk to her. It bugged him greatly but a week? He missed Luna talking to him about nargles, or the way she laughed at jokes. Luna always made him smile and he missed that. He nervously pulled at his Cardigan.
See me nervously pulling at my clothes and trying to look busy
He couldn't even work in Herbology which was weird for him. He poked at his food, not really hungry anymore. He decided to head to the Library to study again.
Luna went to the Library not seeing Neville leave she headed to the Library and sat down at a table.
They both not knowing it picked the same table not looking up both took out the books and wrote down something. Then at the same time they both looked up staring at each other. Luna was going to say something but Neville face got red and picked up his stuff and left.
Luna sat there and watched him left with a sigh. She got up for the moment as if to go after Neville and sat back down.
Neville ran out of the library and to the room of requirement a place for him to think.
And you're doing your best to avoid me
This was stupid thought Neville. The war ended and yet here he was running from his problems. He helped with Dumbledores Army and stood up to Voldemort where in the world was his Gryffindor Courage?
He sighed as he fell on the couch in the room. He missed it when things weren't complicated. Girl are complicated he thought. Nobody said it was going to be easy. He wanted his dad to be not out of it. To tell him what to do.
For the 100th Time in His Life he never felt so alone as he did that moment. He knew who he needed. He need Luna Lovegood.
Luna grabbed her bag and headed back to her dorm. Most likely her dormmates were asleep and for that Luna was most grateful but she still missed her best friend, Neville.
She never felt alone when she was with him. They were perfect for each other or so she thought. Now she wasn't for sure but she missed Neville more then she could ever imagine.
