STAY
As she packed up her bags she looked around. The house was empty. This was no more than what she expected. Her boyfriend had left. She had begged him to stay to try to work it out. Her parents were dead. Dead all because of the dark lord's war. Now it was time to go back to Hogwarts. Back to Slytherin house. Back to watching him in secret. She would have to watch him, watch every one fawn all over him. Only she knew the truth he didn't deserve it. He didn't!
As classes began she saw him. He was with those two as always. The golden trio. She didn't see what was so golden about them. Pansy was in a bad mood and every one knew it, who knew if she would ever be in a good mood ever again. The-red-and-golden-boy-who-lived had broken her heart. Just wait until she saw him by himself. Later that day she would get her shot.
"Harry James Potter" echoed over the lake. He stopped his pacing and looked. Pansy, he knew this moment would come but at least a lot of people weren't around.
"Pansy. Nice to see you."
"Oh, just shut up. Why'd you go? I wanted you to stay."
"No you didn't." He said this dully. It was an old argument.
"Yes I did. You who's the red-and-golden-boy-who-lived. Everyone loves you. You just don't care though. You don't even deserve it. You don't." She screamed this at him. She wanted to see his calm exterior blown to pieces.
"No, I don't. but at least I did what was right. No one can ever accuse their boy-who-lived as being a coward. I killed Lord Voldermont for them. I stayed humble. I stayed when my friends needed me. Even as I watched them dying I stayed. I stayed honest when every one was accusing me of lying. Not once did I waver in my story when he came back. I stayed firm in my belief. I stayed and fought when I so easily could have run."
"I didn't mean.." she started tears in her eyes.
"Yes you did," Harry told her coldly and finished d his speech, "You say I'm the red-and-golden-boy-who-lived. That everyone loves me. That I don't care? I don't deserve it. Here's the thing; I am the red-and-golden-Gryffindor, bold as can be, the one everyone loves and stands behind. I didn't get it handed to me. I fought for it and earned it. So maybe you are right but that's doubtful. I have every right to be who I want to be now. That's Harry. I'm Lily and James's son. Sirius Black's godson. I have done enough for them to be proud of. I will always remember and love them and all the other who fought and died for the cause of Lord Voldermont death. Cause Pansy I was brave enough to STAY." With that said Harry turned and walked to Gryffindor tower. Unaware as he went how many people had heard his speech. Harry Potter had won. He had stayed and won. Now he would stay and raise his godson right. Lupin's son. Teddy. He also had to stay and win Ginny back.
HEY YOU GUYS Happy Halloween! I hope you all love this story I know I loved and enjoyed writing it. I got the idea from a James Potter and Lucius Malfoy story I think it was. The red-and-golden-boy part anyways. Sorry I haven't updated any of my stories lately I got distracted by all the other stories on here. They are fabulous and I love reading them.
