Desire grows

The following day, Harry had a hunch about where Hermione would be headed. After dinner, he and Ron settled into their usual spot in the common room. Hermione soon approached them, requesting their assistance. "Hey, guys, can you write this simple homework for me?"

Ron, unamused, retorted, "Why don't you write it yourself, Hermione?"

However, Hermione's pleading eyes, filled with desperation, were too much for Ron to resist. "Please, Ron. I need you to do this for me."

Ron hesitated for a moment before relenting, taking the book from Hermione.

Harry's curiosity was piqued, and he inquired, "Small work, Hermione? Who's 'we'?"

It didn't take long for Harry to find out as Ginny approached, handing her notebook to him. "Please, Harry, can you write this for me?"

The revelation left Harry dumbfounded. Not only was Hermione going to Hagrid's hut, but Ginny was as well. His mind raced, imagining the scene that would unfold between the trio. As Ginny walked away, Harry's face flushed red with embarrassment, caught in the web of their erotic secrets.

Ron, noticing Harry's blush, asked, "Oh, why are you blushing, Harry?"

Harry feigned innocence, "Oh, it's nothing, really."

Harry took the book from Ginny as the two girls departed. Harry watched them leave, his thoughts entwined with the illicit happenings at Hagrid's hut.

With each passing night, Harry's desires grew more intense, and he struggled to contain them. After three nights, he was approached by Neville, who offered his gratitude. "Thank you, Harry."

Ron, caught off guard, asked Neville, "What help did Harry give you?"

Neville hesitated, unwilling to share his private business, but Ron's curiosity seemed insatiable. "I can't say it, Ron, but it's a relief for me." With that, he left the two friends.

Harry explained to Ron, "I advised him to create his own happiness." Although Ron didn't fully understand, he could sense that Neville's words were laced with satisfaction. "And he did create it, I think."

on, feeling left out, complained to Harry, "Well, give me some tips too. Hermione and you, you're both leaving me behind."

Hoping to reassure his friend, Harry replied, "Nobody's going to be left behind, Ron. Everyone will get a chance."

With a sigh, Ron conceded, "Okay, I'm going to sleep, Harry. Good night." He then retired to his bed, leaving Harry alone in the common room.
