This is a song fic about Harry and Lilly. Song is Somebody Else by 3 doors down. This is a non-magical fic.
I do not the characters or the song lyrics.
Somebody Else
The shades gone up
Mothers staring down
She don't know where he's been
Or how long he's been out
She said 'Boy I'm tired of waiting up while your out with your friends'
He said 'Mom I'm TRYING and I'm living my life the best way that I can'
Lilly stood waiting patiently for Harry as he took his jacket off before she spoke up. "Harry you know I am just worried about you, ever since your dad died…" She trailed off into her own thoughts before she turned and went upstairs.
Harry sighed looking after his mother. "Mom I am not my dad and I'm not a child anymore!" He yelled after her before storming to his own room slamming the door.
Cause I'm trying to be somebody
I'm not trying to be somebody else
This life is mine I'm living
Don't you know me? I wont ever let you down
Curling up on his bed Harry looked to the photo of his father holding a 3 year old Harry that had James police cap on his head. His father looked so happy on the picture, Harry sighed, and no he was not his father and never would be. And he would never die letting his mother down as his father had done. James had been shot on duty the day after that photo was taken. A hostage situation had gone wrong.
The day has come She said 'Son take care, don't let your dreams get too far out of sight'
The SON is moving on
She don't know where he'll go
Or when he's coming home
He said 'I love you now, don't worry about me you know I'll be fine'
Harry went to his car and drove off to his new home close by the collage he had chosen to study at. He looked into the rare mirror at the form of his crying mother. Now he could finally find his own way into life without the ghost memory of his father hovering over him.
Cause I'm trying to be somebody
I'm not trying to be somebody else
This life is mine I'm living
Don't you know me? I won't ever let you down
No
I'm not trying to be somebody else
Don't you know me? I wont ever let you
I wont ever let you
Harry looked to the photo of his mother. He had called her to let her know he had done well on the test. She had been so proud about him and wanted him to come home. All he had answered were. "Maybe next year, I have work to do." Then he had hung up on her.
What they say I'm trying to be somebody
What they know
What they think won't ever bring me down
This life is mine and I am my own
I'm not trying to be somebody else
This life is mine I lead
Don't you know me?
Harry stepped into his old home, after all these years the whispers never died, his mother had passed away lonely in the end and now he had to take care of everything here. Harry missed his lover but had told him it wasn't needed to come along. He missed the blonde hair and the blue eyes. He indeed was his own now and needed to move along from this as well. The funeral had been silent only a few people. Yet the whispers of his return were all over town. His old girlfriend had the nerve to show up by the house to say she had waited all these years for him.
I'm trying to be somebody
I'm not trying to be somebody else
This life is mine I'm living
Don't you know me? I won't ever let you down
NOOOOO
I'm not trying to be somebody else
Don't you know me? I won't ever let you down
I won't be nobody else
Harry cuddled to his lover a smile on his face as he closed his eyes. Now he was free to be his own. His lover was wonderful to him and their family had accepted him as he where and not for who his father was, that was what mattered the most for him.
This life is mine and i am my own
The cursive text is the song. This fic came to me as I listened to the song. I am HP freak I know. And you can all try to figure out who this lover is. ^^;
