<The Dursley residence>

3rd perspective:

..omp! ..tomp! ...Stomp! STOMP!

Harry had been asleep per usual, he was very exhausted as for the past few nights, Dustin hadn't been able to sneak him extra food.

His body had become malnourished from the lack of food,  he didn't blame Dustin, he knew that the Dursleys weren't giving either of them food.

Shoving past those thoughts, he realized the pounding coming from above, it must've been Dudley's stomps on the stairs.

He then heard quiet, small steps down the stairs, knowing it was Dustin as he was the only one to be that quiet.

"Harry, come in the kitchen..!" He heard the tiny, muffled voice from the closet, he carefully stood up, not wanting to hit his head in the top of the closet.

He put on his round glasses and, opened the small door, he leaned down and stepped out.

He quickly made his way to the kitchen, where he could see Dustin slightly yelling at Dudley for stomping down the stairs.

"Harry, start on the breakfast, if you burn any of the food, you're definitely not eating-" he heard his uncle speak up from reading the daily new paper.

He got started as Dustin helped, what he didn't realize was that Dustin snuck parts of food for Harry.

When Harry finished he set down the food and, went to collect the mail as he heard Dudley complain about the amount of birthday gifts he had gotten.

He grabbed the mail from the mail box, and gave it to his uncle, he turned around and started towards his 'room', just as he arrived to the small space, he was greeted with Dustin.

Dustin handed Harry the plate of a small portion of food and smiled at him, knowing that Harry was hungry, all Dustin wanted to do was help poor Harry.

Harry gracefully accepted it, not knowing Dustin was starving as well, as he had given Harry his little portion as well.

Dustin sat with Harry as he ate, making little small talk every now and again until he was finished.

Harry smiled and embraced Dustin, he had been starving up until that point and he was just glad to have a full stomach.

Just as his was about to thank Dustin over and over they both heard Vernon yell, quite loudly at that,

"Harry, Dustin, get your arses inside the car!" To which the both of them scrambled to get up and outside.

When both of them made it outside, Vernon pulled Harry away and angrily whispered something to him.

Dustin hadn't heard what had been said but he saw the interaction and wished he could have helped because when Harry sat down inside the car a look of nervousness and worry appeared on his face.

All of them made it to the zoo, to which Harry and Dustin walked behind the group and made small talk, all while the adults bought Dudley multiple gifts and such around the place.
