This is kind of short but I got this idea at the spur of the moment and I like it. So please tell me what you think about it!

Disclaimer- I do not own Harry Potter or any of its characters. They are all owned by J. K. Rowling so don't get mad at me….


Hello. My name's Harry Potter. You probably know me as the "Boy Who Lived". Then again who doesn't know who I am?

When I was one, I defeated the dark lord, Voldemort or You-Know-Who as he's called by many people. I don't remember any of it. My parents were killed that night I defeated him. I can still hear my Mum's scream in my dreams…

After this incident, I was taken to live with my aunt and uncle who hated magic. I suppose that in Dumbledore's point of view this was good for me since he wouldn't have wanted me to grow up to be some arrogant prat, I suppose.

Then again, do you think that it's fair for me to live in a world where no one knows about any of this? Do you think that it's fair that when I was brought back into the wizarding world, everyone was depending on me to defeat Voldemort again? I don't.

My best friends are Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. Ron is the second youngest out of seven. He's always over shadowed by his brothers. It's easy to understand why he's jealous of me sometimes. Ron knows that I hate the attention but things like that get under his skin easily. Besides that, Ron is my best friend and nothing will change that.

Hermione is a kind, smart, caring, and intelligent person. I feel very privileged to have her as my friend. I have to say that she is the most brilliant person that I know. If it wasn't for her, I would never have gotten out of many tight spots. She's had to cope with a lot of things. She's muggle born and that makes life hard for her. She constantly gets teased by people because of it and her parents are targets for Voldemort's attacks.

The thing that I like about Ron and Hermione is the fact that they help me cope with all the stress that I deal with. They understand the fact that I want to be a normal wizard. I don't want to have the responsibility of killing Voldemort. The whole wizarding community is depending on me to kill him. What's worse is that many people believe that I can kill him. But what if I don't and I die instead. Neither can live while the other survives.

Then there are those people who don't understand anything. They think that I want all this. Those idiotic people think that all I want is fame. They think I am a coward who will run when the final battle begins.

How the hell do they know what I think? They don't. I don't want any of it. I would gladly give it all up in a second. Hey, it means that I can be with my parents and all the other people who have died because of me. But that would just be proving those non believers right. It would prove to them and the rest of the world that I am a coward. I, Harry James Potter, am not a coward.

Let me say one thing. What I want the most right now is for the world to be in peace. I don't want people to be in fear that even taking a step outside their door can get them killed. I want for people to rejoice in the fact that they can live the life that they've always wanted.

Don't get me wrong. There are a lot of things that I want. There are a lot of things that I don't want. This responsibility is one of them. So the next time you see me, don't come up to me and ask me about Voldemort. Don't ask me if I think I'll be able to kill him. Don't ask me anything related to that.

Just know that I don't want any of this…
