He Walked Away.
This is the first thing I've written for months I might be a bit rusty.
Chapter 1- Birthday Visit.
Harry Ryan stared at the T.V. screen not really paying attention to it. It had been 4 years exactly since he had turned his back on the wizarding world. It was also his 22nd birthday. He was going to meet some old friends that night. He didn't want to but he didn't even try to argue. Arguing with them was pointless. They would come what ever he did. He hated his birthday.
That night the doorbell rang and he walked as slowly as possible to the front door. The minute he opened it 7 people walked in. HE watched as Ginny, Ron Fred and George Weasley, Hermione Granger, Remus Lupin and Albus Dumbledore hurried past him "That's right just barge in," He muttered, then in a louder voice said "There's not as many of you as usual."
"No, Mr. Potter-"Dumbledore started.
"I'm not Mr. Potter. Harry James Potter is gone." Harry interrupted.
"A lot of people had plans for tonight and couldn't come. But I assure you they wanted to."
"Oh, that's nice. I thought people might've forgotten about me." Harry said bitterly.
"You really thought people would forget about the boy who saved us from Voldemort?" Remus asked
"Sorry I hoped that people would forget me. And don't mention that again or I'll chuck you out my house." Harry replied. "I suppose you want to sit down."
They all nodded and walked into the living room which had barely changed since they had last been there. The walls were painted dark blue and the ceiling was white. There were two armchairs and on one sofa all of which were black. There were dark blue curtains hiding the window and ,at the moment, the only light in the room came from numerous candles. There were four large book cases with hundreds of books and videos and DVDs on the shelves and the T.V. All in all it was a typical muggle living room. As the others sat down Harry dragged a chair into the room from the dining room across the hall.
HE sat down and watched them waiting for one of them to start the conversation. 'I wonder how they're going to try and make me come back this time.' He thought. He didn't have to wait long to find out. "Harry we've missed you." Said Hermione.
"Yeah." Said Ron "Everyone else has too, mate."
"That's nice they should come and visit sometime, tell them I here most days when after work," Harry said.
"You could go and visit them," Remus suggested.
"Why would I want to do that, when it is them who want to see me not the other way round?" Harry asked.
"Oh come on Harry, you must miss some people," Remus sighed.
"Err, No," Harry answered
"There must be at least one person you miss," Remus sounded like he was begging now.
Harry shook his head.
"There's not one person you miss in the wizarding world?" Remus stared at Harry.
'He's lying hes got to miss someone.' Remus thought.
"Well, sometimes I miss people, but not often. I lead such a busy life I don't have time to miss people and I don't think about it for long when I do 'cos I just go and see my friends," Harry explained.
'I'm telling the truth I don't miss them,' he told himself.
'You can't lie to yourself. You miss them and you know it,' Said an honest voice in his brain.
'I don't!' Harry said to it (or thought to it).
'You do, Harry. You think about them everyday,'
'Yes but that doesn't mean I miss them!"
'What does then?'
"Shut up!" Harry realised everyone was staring at him looking surprised because he had just spoke out loud. "I was talking to myself ,"
"Harry you must miss at least one person," Remus pleaded.
"I do. No! No! I don't. Even if I did I wouldn't go back with you!"
"Harry I know you're still sad. I understand but..." Remus was cut off by Harry yelling.
"UN-DER-STAND!? YOU UNDERSTAND!? YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND AND NEVER WILL!"
A/N Hope you like the first chapter I worked really hard on this. Actually I didn't. Not really. It just came to me and I wrote it down. That is the best way for me to write if I think to hard it turns out to be pathetic. Please review anyway.
