Love Takes Flight Ottery's Editor-In-Chief Resident Heartbreaker Neville stopped short and looked around the room, wonderingly.
Luna stood with a smile. "There you are. I thought perhaps, after the awful day you had yesterday, you might need to relax a little. Would you like some tea?"
"Luna, I...we need to talk."
She had opened her arms to him but let them drop at the pained expression on his face. "What is it, Neville?"
Seeing the concern in her eyes, the lengths she had gone to in order to comfort him jelled his resolve. In two long strides, he crossed the room and enfolded her in his arms. In a voice husky with emotion, he whispered, "I love you. Oh, Luna, I'm in love with you."
Pulling back slightly, she smiled up at him. "I know that, silly."
Neville kissed her then, kissed her with all the tender passion in his heart. He felt awed by the rightness of it, then lost himself in her kiss.
All around them a multitude of butterflies burst into being, but it was a long time before either noticed.
