July 30th, 1997

"LORRINDA, YOUR BOYFRIEND'S HERE!" Fred shouted up the stairs. I was reading a book on my bed, but as soon as I heard those words I slammed my book shut tossed it across the room onto Ginny's bed, and sprinted out of my room. I must've been running at the speed of sound for not even a minute later I stood at the bottom of the stairs, scanning the house for my Neville. That's when Fred and Ron parted ways and revealed Neville standing behind them, holding a small rucksack over his shoulder.

"NEVY!!!" I shrieked, sprinting over to him, not letting a single inch keep us apart anymore. As I smashed into him, I heard him let out a small cough, as the wind was knocked out of him. However, after a few seconds, he wrapped his arms around me and we swayed back and forth locked in our hug for a few moments.

"Alright, lovebirds! Break. It. Up!" Ron said as he shoved his way in between us. "You're not allowed to do anything funny while you are both here, got it?"

"Oh, Ron! We aren't children!" I sighed.

"Technically he still is until midnight, when his birthday has officially passed!" Ron replied.

"I was born in the mid-afternoon," Neville said wrapping his arm around my waist again. "So technically any time afternoon I am an official adult wizard."

"HA!" I laughed at my twin. While Ron rolled his eyes and went to make another comment I pulled Neville into a kiss and we rushed out of the house and into nature.

"Wait! Get back here!" Ron's voice shouted from the door. "IF YOU LAY ONE FINGER WHERE IT SHOULDN'T GO LONGBOTTOM, YOU'LL FIND YOURSELF HANGING MY YOUR EARS FROM THE CHIMNEY BEFORE SHE COULD EVEN MOAN!"

"RON!" Mum's voice screeched from inside. I snickered knowing Ron was going to get in trouble for that remark, but also at the same time couldn't care less. I led Neville to a small clearing about twenty feet from the burrow where I had bribed Ginny and Hermione to lay out a picnic for us (it cost me all of my Witch Weekly magazines but honestly it was worth it). I sat down with Neville on the blanket and wen enjoyed a small lunch with lots of fruits and veggies, before laying on our backs and looking up at the sky.

"That cloud looks like an elephant!" I said pointing up at the cloud above.

"Let me guess, those are her children?" Neville added after, as he pointed to the clouds that followed behind.

"Well, of course! Neville, what else would they be?"

"Hunters?" I slapped him on the arm.

"No, talking about those awful people." I snapped. "People who hunt innocent animals for fun should be sentenced to Azkaban, even if they are Muggles!"

"Whoa! Calm down, love. Don't go blowing a fuse in that lovely brain of yours." Neville placed a kiss on my temple as he pulled me closer to him. That's when I felt his hand reach down and start to touch my arse. I sighed and grabbed his hand, pulling it up into my lap.

"Not now, Nev. What if one of my siblings walks out here to find us?" I asked looking at him.

"Who said we would do it right here?" He looked down at me with sudden lust. I sighed and shook my head.

"If they look for us and don't find us, my parents will destroy me."

"Not if I destroy you first."
