... open spot." Sheila nodded, perking up a little. "I know," she replied. "I knew Dennis was better yesterday, and I'm glad that I at least had a shot." Harry reached out and slung an arm across her shoulders, hugging her briefly. "Let me know if you want some pointers at all, and just keep practicing. There's always next year." He pulled back, and was pleased to see her face light up. "Thanks, Harry," she grinned. "I might just take you up on those pointers some time." She ran off to catch up with Evan for breakfast. Harry watched her leave, the smile still in place. That was a nice thing to do, Harry, he heard Ginny say. He turned around to see his girlfriend making her way back down the stairs, clean and dressed in her uniform. He shrugged lightly. She does have some talent, it would be a shame not to cultivate it, he replied. They both watched Evan and Sheila leave the common room, whispering and giggling as they walked through the portrait. If you're not careful, you might have two students asking for pointers, Ginny observed, coming to stand next to her boyfriend. Harry looked down several inches into her smiling face.

"Yes dear," he replied, leaning forward to give her a chaste kiss, before heading up to his dorm room. Ginny was always right, after all. And don't you forget it, Potter. Harry shook his head. Yes, dear, he said again, before grabbing his clothes to get ready for the day. XXX Classes continued in a similar fashion for the next few weeks. Defense was as boring as the first lesson, as Umbridge just had them all read the book. This led to an increase in students at DA sessions, as students learned that they were going over spells they should be learning in class. Saturday nights ended up becoming the permanent time for meetings, as the three Quidditch teams represented in the club all worked their practices around that time slot. The length of the meeting also lengthened, including an hour in the beginning of just Defense work, before they moved on to other subjects for another hour. Hermione had voiced some concerns over the DA to Harry in private. They both knew their Defense professor would not approve of them learning defensive spells on their own, but there was nothing she could do, right? It was a sanctioned club, so she couldn't protest. ...
