WHO: Neville, Hannah, Lucy, and GRAN
WHAT: Gran meets Hannah and Lucy
WHEN: Thursday Night
WHERE: Gran's House

Neville had initially planned to have Gran over to his flat, to keep it on his terms, but he couldn't pass up a home-cooked meal and he didn't want to have the added pressure of cooking for her while trying to earn her approval. So, after he got over his reluctance to meet on her turf, he told Hannah about the plans and got dressed in a light sweater Gran ad bought him for Christmas. Maybe it was sucking up, but he thought that it couldn't hurt to be polite.

He sat at the counter in the kitchen, waiting for Hannah to be ready, drinking a glass of chocolate milk for comfort. He really needed Gran to come around and approve of Hannah. He would be miserable if she stayed stubborn on the issue.

"I'm a single mum with a Death Eater after me. I've not had a good social life in a long time. The last break I took for myself, no one else about, was a run to Baxter's Bakery a month or two ago. I didn't exactly come into this with low baggage, Neville. It was already complicated."

"I feel rather at fault for it, too. I'm the sort not approved of. I don't have a proper social life nor people to help me with this. It's rather pathetic to be having a pity party."

	"I don't really have a proper social life either... I just have war stories, I suppose. I mean... I haven't seen Ron or Harry since I quit and Luna... God it's been forever." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Well... you should try to see Ron or Harry. Or something." No, it wasn't a pity party. It finally hit Hannah that it was guilt. Her pity was directed toward Neville being entangled with her. "I don't want to drag you down. You know what? You should have a bloke's night out. I bet everyone could use a bit of a break like that." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Well... if I go out, I want you to spend some time with Ginny. You know... to be safe. I mean, we can't have constant guards, in case they never catch Winchester, but you know-- I could teach you some self defense!" Neville got the idea suddenly. "Wandless self defense!"

"I can go stay at the Potter's, with Lucy, when you go out... assuming they don't mind." And Hannah couldn't imagine they would. The place was big enough that she and Lucy could go over and simply stay in a room overnight if the blokes stayed out into the wee hours of the morning.

"And - okay. I suppose. Perhaps after we figure out the wedding planning?" Because, frankly, Hannah didn't want to try and figure out a time to squeeze it into before that was all settled.

	"You and Ginny can have a girls' night. With or without wedding plans." Neville figured that maybe it was time he owl Harry and try and talk to him. He knew that Harry was notoriously stubborn-- he had seen enough of the Ron fights over the years to know it. "And... yeah... I mean... okay after the wedding planning. I just want you to feel safe."
