Chapter 10: Confrontations

A/N: No copyright intended. I don't own Harry Potter.

Harry woke up early in the morning and went down to the great hall. He was eating his breakfast when he was approached by his former teammate, Angelina Johnson. "How was your summer? That's good, tryouts are on Friday and I need you to be there." Said Angelina.

"And what makes you think I'll be there? And what makes you think I'm rejoining the team at all?" Harry asked. "What are you talking about? You were the team seeker for years. Why are saying this?" Angelina asked.

"Because of what you did . You didn't believe I killed Cedric even though I've been your teammates for years," Harry said. "Look Harry, I'm sorry and Alicia and Katie are too, but we absolutely need you. Without you, Slytherin will surely beat us badly." Angelina said.

"Then let them," Harry said. "I don't care about quidditch anymore and I've realized it's nothing but a stupid game where people get injured every other game. And I will never work with anyone who try to get me in Azkaban just to get their greedy little hands on my money."

Angelina tried to find something to say, but couldn't think of anything. She just said, "Alright then, I'll find someone else" than left. Harry couldn't believe her. She goes against him in his time of need and expects him to rejoin the quidditch team just because she wants the Gryffindor team to win? How pathetic.

When Harry was done with his breakfast, he decided to leave where no one would ever go… The library. He went to a table and started to do his charms homework. He was approached by Ravenclaw students, Terry Boot and Padma Patil. He groaned. Is there nowhere where he can just be alone?

"Harry, Ron told us that you refused to teach us defense classes. Could you at all reconsider? We need to know how to defend ourselves in the real world" said Terry. "No I will not reconsider. I haven't forgiven you, so I refuse to teach you. And I am not a teacher, I will not not resort myself to putting up with your lack of defense skill" Harry retorted.

"Harry, please. We're sorry we didn't believe you. Just give us another chance to make things right with you. We absolutely need to know how to defend ourselves and you are the best at defense and Umbridge's classes are nothing but complete rubbish" Padma pleaded.

Harry snorted and said, "No, I almost had to spend a lifetime of hell at Azkaban and you decided to believe Dumbledore instead of me. I do not intend to ever forgive you. You both made your choices and I have made mine, and I decided not only to not teach you, but to never ever forgive you" Harry then left with shocked looks on the Ravenclaws faces.

He was approaching the fat lady portrait when he saw the two Hufflepuffs he despised the most, Ernie Macmillan and Hannah Abbot, the people who believed he was the heir of Slytherin and believed he put his name in the Goblet of Fire.

"Harry could we speak to you for a moment?" asked Macmillan. "I don't see why I should let you. Haven't you caused enough damage in my life?" Hannah and Ernie looked down at the floor, ashamed of what they had thought of him the last 4 years at Hogwarts.

"Harry please, we know we don't deserve a chance to make up for what we thought, but we only thought that you were the heir of Slytherin because we thought you wanted to petrify Justin. We thought you only wanted to stop Hufflepuffs chances at being great at something for once. We only thought you killed Cedric because you came back with his body. We would have never would have blamed you if we knew" explained Hannah.

Harry grew angrier by the second. "Oh, and me explaining what had happened wasn't good enough for you? Me trying to explain that Voldemort had killed Cedric didn't convince you? You thought I put my name in when I was too young to do any sort of Confundus charm? And you thought that I wanted to petrify Justin when I was completely friendly with him? Give me one good reason why I should stand here and listen to your excuses when I should be doing homework right now." Demanded Harry.

Hannah and Ernie opened and closed their mouths. They couldn't think of anything to say. They had wanted to make up with Harry for what they did all the years before, but they knew that the damage they had done was too strong.

"Just what I thought" Harry said. "Stay the hell away from me. I will never ever forgive for what you've done. If you even think of coming near me ever again, I will hex you so bad you won't even recognize your own faces when I'm done with you."

Harry then gave the password to the portrait and entered the common room without looking back at the two Hufflepuffs. He did his homework with Neville and went to the great hall. He was eating his dinner and Cho Chang came up to him and said, "Harry, this week is a Hogsmeade weekend and I was wondering if you wanted to go with me there?" Cho asked.

Harry gave the Ravenclaw an astonished look. These people will just not stop. "No thanks, I don't care about going to Hogsmeade anymore, especially if it means going with you" Harry coldly said. Cho's eyes had filled with tears. She went back to the Ravenclaw table. She couldn't believe how stupid she had been. She didn't want to believe Harry had killed Cedric, but the evidence was too convincing. Now that Cedric was gone and Harry refused to go out with her, she would have no other boyfriend at Hogwarts the rest of the years.

When Harry was done with his dinner, he went back to the common room to get to bed. When he was approaching the Fat lady, a long bang was heard behind him. He quickly turned and said, "Protego!" and the spell was quickly absorbed by the shield that was given. He saw Draco Malfoy coming toward him. Harry groaned and said, "What do you want, Malfoy? I don't have time for you." Harry said.

"You know exactly why I'm here" said Malfoy. "I'm here to get revenge on my godfather for embarrassing him in his own classroom. REDUCTO!" then a powerful reductus charm was sent toward him. "Protego!" Harry said. The spell was absorbed again by the shield.

"What in the world is going on here?" McGonagall said, coming up to the two. "He tried to kill me with the reductus charm" Harry said. McGonagall turned to Malfoy and shouted, "GET TO MY OFFICE, YOU ARE FACING EXPULSION!" She then grabbed him by the ear and pulled him to her office.

Harry gave the password to the fat lady and went to bed. He knew people would try to talk to him but they should know that just saying the words "I'm Sorry" doesn't fix everything in the world. He would never ever forgive them for what they did and he didn't intend to.
