But I clearly don't know all of it – and I would never pressure either of you to tell me all of it unless you were comfortable." He paused grimly. "It is also clear to me that you and Ginny are good mates. I'm glad she has that. I'm glad she has you, as a good male friend. I imagine you feel the same way about Ginny, especially in light of.... your break up with Luna." Neville didn't move to acknowledge this, though from the heartbroken look in his eyes, the split with his lover seemed to have been painful. There was another pregnant silence. Neville said nothing, watching Harry and waiting.
