They all sat in silence for a few seconds before the sliding door opened and Neville poked his head through with a crooked smile. “Hi all, you mind if we join you for a bit?” He pushed it back a little further and Luna smiled in.
“Yeah, come in.” Harry scooted down the seat to make room for the other two.
“How was your break Luna?” Hermione asked as she sat down beside her.
“Not too bad, my father took Neville on a tour of his new garden; he’s just gotten rid of a nargle problem.” She smiled sweetly and Neville looked a little uncomfortable.
“Are you alright Neville?” Ginny asked.
“Tell her what happened at my grandmother’s house.” He said.
“It couldn’t have been that bad, you look absolutely horrified.” Ron chuckled a little and Neville looked like he was going to be sick.
“His grandmother wanted me to sleep in the garden.” Everyone turned, almost in slow motion, to look at Luna, that docile little smile still plastered as always on her face.
After a few moments Hermione looked back to Neville who was nodding as if he almost didn’t believe it himself.
“She… she what?” Ginny asked, her brow furrowed in disbelief.
“Well I was explaining to her about the nargles in the garden at home and she suggested I sleep outside so that I could make sure there were none in her garden.” Luna was probably the only person who wouldn’t get completely offended by this.
“So… what happened then?” Harry asked.
“I told her that it was unlikely, her garden has a very strong scent and it would probably keep them away. They don’t like places like that.” Luna shrugged, seemingly unfazed.
“She just kind of turned up her nose and said that she still thought it wouldn’t be so terrible if she did sleep outside… it was horrible.” Neville said, the look still on his face.
“I’m sure she just wants the best for you.” Hermione offered.
“Who does? We’re not talking about your bloody grandmother are we? She’s absolutely mad.” They turned to see Seamus walking into the compartment.
“She told Luna to sleep in the garden when they went back.” Ginny said flatly.
“Blimey!” He sat down and sighed. “I’d a told her where to go… you know, if she wasn’t such a scary old woman.”
“Where’s Dean?” Ron asked.
“Few doors down, he’s stopped to mingle with some of the girls. You’d think he could get on a train without puttin’ on the charm.” Seamus slumped into a seat and shook his head about.
