Draco and Hermione are dating. Ron is spying.

Draco and Hermione had been dating for a few months now, and they were both incredibly happy together. They went on dates to fancy restaurants, walked around the park holding hands, and spent evenings watching movies at Draco's place. But there was one person who wasn't quite happy about their relationship - Ron.

Ron had always harbored a crush on Hermione, and the fact that she was now dating his former nemesis Draco made him feel jealous and angry. He couldn't understand what she saw in him, and he found himself increasingly spying on the couple whenever they were out in public.

One evening, as Draco and Hermione were enjoying a candlelit dinner at a swanky restaurant, Ron couldn't resist following them. He hid in the shadows and watched as they laughed and talked, looking totally content in each other's company. Ron felt a pang of bitterness in his chest.

As the night wore on, Draco and Hermione paid their bill and got up to leave. Ron quickly ducked behind a nearby pillar, hoping they wouldn't notice him. But as they walked past, Hermione's sharp eyes caught sight of him.

"Ron? What are you doing here?" she asked, surprised.

Ron stumbled over his words, trying to come up with a plausible excuse. But before he could say anything, Hermione spoke again.

"You know, it's really not okay to spy on people like this. It's creepy and invasive, and it shows that you don't respect our privacy or our feelings for each other."

Ron looked down, shamefaced. He knew she was right.

"I'm sorry, Hermione. I guess I just...I don't know. I'm still not sure about all of this," he gestured between her and Draco.

Hermione sighed. "Ron, I understand that this is hard for you. But the truth is, Draco and I really care about each other. And I hope that one day you can accept that and be happy for us."

Ron nodded slowly, still unsure. But as he watched the couple walk away hand in hand, he couldn't deny the genuine affection they had for each other. Maybe, just maybe, he could learn to let go of his jealousy and support his friends' happiness.
