Disclaimer; If I owned anything I won't be here at to write one, I would be out there writing the next Harry Potter book. But the famous J.K. Rowling owns all the Harry Potter characters and Kelly Clarkson owns the song 'Because of You'.

(A/N; Hello, I guess you found my story. Well, I got the inspiration to write this story from listening to Kelly's album 'Breakaway' to often. And I am a big Harry Potter and Kelly Clarkson fan. So what a great mix there huh? Well I guess I should let you start to read the story, so here you go.)

Summary: Hermione's heart was broken. She and Draco had been together for a year and a half, but when she saw him cheat on her, she thought that she was never going to recover. But when Harry and Ron decided that they we're going to enter the talent show, they had convinced Hermione to do it to. She decided to get up in front of the whole school and sing to them. But more to Draco. She was going to tell him through song, just how he had hurt her. But will he completely understand the meaning of the song, or did Hermione just get up in front of the entire school to make a fool of herself?

Chapter 1:

It was the day. It was the day that Hermione was going to get in front of Draco and sing to him, just how much it hurt to see him cheat on her. Harry and Ron were down in the common room rehearsing their routine and she was up stair in her dorm room getting ready. She had decided to wear a baby blue sparkly dress. It went all the way to the floor, and she had to pick it up to walk. It had a 'u'cut in the back with straps going across it and ending in a bow. There was a slit on the left side that went up to her knee. The dress had been picked out for a wedding that she never went to. Her hair was done by Lavender and Parvati. They had parted it on the left side and then curled it. She was now sitting in front of the vanity with Ginny. She was doing her make-up. Hermione didn't want to wear any, but Ginny, Lavender and Parvati had insisted she wear it.

"Are you sure you want to go with that bright of a blue Ginny?" Hermione asked looking at the color Ginny had chosen from her make-up bag.

"Of course. It goes with the dress. Now close your eyes. Thank you." Ginny said, now applying the blue eyeshadow to Hermione's eyelids.

"Hermione, you look beautiful. All the heads in the great hall are going to turn the minute you step on to the stage." Lavender said as she sat down on her bed next Parvati.

"I know Draco's head will turn. I mean look at you. The whole male population is going to want to be next to you." Parvati said to her.

"But when I start to sing, what if I hit the wrong note?" Hermione asked while Ginny put mascara on her eyelashes.

"Oh, you won't. We have all heard you sing Hermione, you are great." Ginny said as she outlined Hermione's lips with a brown color lip liner. Then putting a gloss over her lips.

"She's right Hermione, you sound great. Ron and Harry told me that you sound like an angel." Parvati said, Lavender turned to look at her with a face like, and-how-do-you-know-they-said-that. "Don't look at me like that Lavender. I asked them."

"You asked them? Why did you do that?" Lavender asked.

"I don't know why." Parvati said shrugging her shoulders.

Hermione turned around to face them with a smile and said, "I know why, she's got a crush on Ron."

"Hermione! You weren't supposed to tell!" Parvati said between giggles.

"You have a crush on Ron! I thought it was Harry!" Lavender exclaimed smiling at her.

"Lavender! You arn't supposed to say that either!" Parvati giggled again.

Now it was Ginny's turn to say something, with a smile she said, "Harry and Ron! Parvati! Harry and my brother! Oh my god!"

"Yeah, both Harry and Ron." Parvati chuckled.

All four girls sat there giggling at each other when Ginny looked out the window and saw that it was starting to get dark out. The talent show was starting at sundown.

"Hermione, we need to finish with your make-up, it's almost time to go to the great hall." Ginny said turning to the vanity for the blush. After applying the blush to Hermione's cheekbones, she was ready.

Hermione stood up and walked over to the mirror. They were right, she did look beautiful. The dressed fit to her form perfectly. Showing off her curves. The make-up that Ginny did looked like she had gone somewhere to get it done. The way Lavender and Parvati did her hair was gorgeous. Hermione didn't even recognize herself. Now all she needed was the necklace her mother gave to her for her birthday. She walked over to her trunk and pulled out a box. She lifted the lid and looked at the diamond and sapphire wreath necklace. (A/N; okay you would have to see the necklace, to look at how beautiful it is.) It had costed her parents a furtune to get it for her.

"Oh, Hermione, I didn't know you had that." Ginny said as she, Lavender, and Parvati lookedat the necklace Hermione had in her hands.

"That's because I just got it from my parents." she answered taking it out of the box and putting it on. Now she was complete. "Alright, I guess we should go now."

"Yeah, we should." Lavender said walking to the door and opened it.

"So, Parvati, Ron and Harry. Who else is there?" Hermione asked, raising her eyebrow as Parvati looked down.

"Whoa!"

All four girls looked toward the fireplace. Harry and Ron were standing there eyes wide.

"Ronald, your mouth is hanging open. You too Harry." Ginny said as they walked toward the door.

"Oh, right. Hermione, you look... you look..." Ron said, but didn't know the right words to say.

"To good for words." Harry finished for him.

"Yeah." Ron said stupidly.

"Thanks. Um, we have to go now. It's about to start." Hermione said to them. Lavender and Parvati went out the door first, followed by Ginny and Ron, and last Harry and Hermione.


Harry and Ron had just finished there routine. They had preformed a song by some band called Green Day. They had asked Hermione for a song for them to play and this was she could get. But they did a wonderful job by the sound of the cheers.

Soon it was Hermione's turn. She was on after Crabbe and Goyle. She didn't even want to know what they were going to do. Harry and Ron walked through the door and Crabbe and Goyle went out. (A/N; they are in the room behind the head table.)

"Hey, so, how did it go?" she asked them.

"GREAT! They loved it!" Ron said in a huff and landed in a near by armchair.

"It was awesome! They went nuts. All but the Slytherins, but we know that they wouldn't cheer for anyone but their own house." Harry said sitting in a chair next to Ron and drinking some water.

"Yeah. We do know that part." Hermione said, and started to pace back and forth. She was getting really nervous.

"Mione, stop, you're making me dizzy." Ron said watching his best friend pase in front of him.

"I can't, I'm nervous." she said, running her hand across her necklace. "What if they don't like me?"

"Nonsense. They'll love you. Well, maybe not the Slytherins." Harry said, but quickly added, "They'll love you."

Hermione was still skeptical about the whole thing. She wasn't sure if she could go through with all of this now. "Harry, I can't do this. I can't do this."

"You can, you can do this. Hermione, you need to get out there and show that little ferret that you have moved on. BecauseRon and Iwould gladly hex him. Wouldn't we Ron? Ron? Ron?" Harry said, then turning around to see Ron fast asleep in the armchair.

"Harry, don't hex him, you'll just get yourself in detention." Hermione said looking at Ron to.

"Miss Granger, your up." Professor McGonagall said as Crabbe and Goyle came in covered in tomatoes and other foods.

"Thanks Professor." Hermione said and then turned to Harry.

"Good Luck." he said and then she walked toward the door to the stage.

It was dark at first, then a light landed on her. She walked up to the microphone. She waited, then the music started to play. And...

Well what do you think? Should I continue? Please tell me if it should, it would be wonderful if i could, but i'll leave that up to you. Thanks. Mess531y. Remember, please review, don't leave me hanging.
