Comfort Is

Dormitory

Neville and Seamus make their way through the common room and trudge up the stairs in Gryfindor tower to their dormitory.

They are both full from the feast but the silence in the air is one not of contentedness, but rather one which, ironically, screams about the three missing from their usual number.

"Looks like it's just you and I this year, huh?" says Neville sadly, as he pulls his pyjamas out of his trunk.

"Yeah," concludes Seamus, before reaching for his own trunk. He stops as he looks at Neville who is settling in his bed on the opposite side of the room to his. Seamus pulls out his wand and mutters a spell, swapping the position of his bed with Harry's.

Neville smiles as Seamus drags his trunk over.
