Neville is your boyfriend. You’re long lasting, clumsy, awkward boyfriend.
Today you were in Slughorns class. Brewing the Amortentia potion. A powerful love potion that smells exactly like the person you love.
You say next to Neville. He was up first.
Nervously, he walked up to the pot and leaned down. “Uh…cinnamon…some..Rosie perfume…and…some…patchouli something..”
Neville knew what patchouli scent was…it was his cologne that you spray on your sweater. He smiles softly and walked back. Sitting next to you.
“Alright Seamus, you’re up next!” Slughorn announced and Seamus walked up.
Seamus walked up. Seamus and Neville are long time best friends, since the first year they stuck together. You got along with him.
Seamus looked at the pot. “I…smell..uh..” He paused and looked at You. “Rose perfume…and cinnamon..” He muttered
The class went silent. The school knew you were dating Neville. But if Seamus was smelling the same thing in the cauldron, that means Seamus had feelings for you too.
Neville was usually really REALLY good at keeping his emotions in check. But…you could hear his breathing pick up…and he was staring at Seamus with wide eyes.
Neville is usually a sweetheart, giving you tones of attention and love, always rambling but now he seemed…angry?
You never saw him angry, maybe frustrated or annoyed but never truly, genuinely angry.
