... and got a little caught up. I should have included you more in my life." Hannah smiled slightly. "I'm glad to hear that, but I don't blame you or anything. And I didn't go out with Neville to spite you or anything. I thought he was cute." Susan smiled shyly. "He is, isn't he." Hannah narrowed her eyes. "All right, girl. Spill. What happened tonight?" Susan's smile widened. "Neville caught up with me a little while ago. We're back together." Hannah squealed, and then clapped her hands over her mouth when she realized the other girls in the room were asleep. Removing her hands after a moment, she whispered, "That's so great, Susan! I'm so happy for you!" Susan blushed, but her smile could have lit the room. "We should get to sleep. It's getting late." Hannah nodded, but narrowed her eyes as she lay down, still looking at Susan. "All right, but you're telling me details later." Susan chuckled and nodded as she, too, lay down. XXX When Neville returned to the Gryffindor common room, he found Harry and Ginny, as well as Ron and Hermione all waiting for him in two armchairs next to the fire.

Harry grinned. "That's great, Nev. I'm glad you two stopped dancing around each other. Even Ron could see that you two still like each other." "Yeah…" Ron paused. "Hey!" They all laughed. "Seriously though," Harry said, catching his breath. "I'm happy for you." "Definitely," Ginny agreed. "Is Hannah all right with it? I hope she wasn't too hurt." Neville snorted. "Hannah's the one who told me to stop running and face the fact that I was still in love with Susan. Technically I think she broke up with me, but she was right. Susan and I didn't break up because we didn't like each other anymore. We were both just… scared." He sighed. "I was afraid of what I was feeling, so I did the easy thing. But if there's one thing you've taught me Harry, it's that it's not worth winning if you don't have to fight for it." Harry blushed slightly. "Thanks, mate," he said quietly.
