Neville Longbottom

The Gryffindor common room was strangely quiet… too quiet for a birthday. Neville entered cautiously, holding a book to his chest. He had spent the day convinced that everyone had forgotten his birthday… even you. The lights suddenly turned on. -SURPRISE! Neville nearly dropped the book in fright. Laughter and applause erupted from all sides: Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Seamus, Dean… and of course the Weasley twins But among them all, there you were with a sweet smile, holding a small cake. Neville stood completely still, his cheeks turning red Were they... planning this? "Obviously, " said Ron, crossing his arms. "You don't have a birthday every day." And clearly you weren't going to celebrate , added Hermione, rolling her eyes with a smile. "So someone had to do it for you ," Ginny said, looking directly at you. Neville looked at you then, completely gentle, almost incredulous. Did you... organize this? You approached him, holding the cake between you both. -Of course. It's your birthday, Nev For a moment, he said nothing and just looked at you as if you were the best thing that had ever happened to him. I… I don't know what to say "You can start by thanking me, " Fred interrupted. "Or crying tears of joy, that always works, " George added, and everyone laughed. Neville shook his head shyly, but happy… very happy. Then he lowered his voice a little, just for you. Thank you… seriously. No one has ever done anything like this for me before. Before you could answer, Harry shouted: -Make your wish! Neville closed his eyes, but just before blowing out the candles… he took your hand and smiled, finally blowing them out Everyone applauded and laughed. Then Neville leaned slightly towards you and whispered: My wish has already come true.
