The Pain You Caused

Chapter 2: Pain

Disclaimer: I don't own any of the stuff except the plot and Hayley so don't steal them. The song featured in this chapter is called Extraordinary Girl and it's by Greenday. It can be found on their album American Idiot. Its track nine.

It was the first day of December and there was a Hogsmeade visit planned for the next day. Harry planned to ask Hayley if she wanted to go with him.

However when he found her finally he saw something that devastated him. Hayley was all over Ron. They were kissing and hugging and doing all sorts of other things.

Seeing this Harry ran.

He didn't know how long he ran for or where to. But when he finally stopped he sat down and cried. He had been there for who knows how long when Hermione found him and walked up to him.

"Hey Harry I was won- Harry are you alright?" she asked seeing him crying.

The next thing he knew he was on Hermione's shoulder crying.

"How could she have done this" he asked Hermione as if she knew what was going on.

"Wait a minute Harry, who could have done what?" she said.

"Hayley's going out with Ron two days after I asked her out and she said try again in a couple of weeks because she didn't w- want a b-boyfriend right now" he sobbed with tears spattering down her shirt.

"Oh I see. Well Harry if it helps I'm upset to because I liked Ron but now she's got him so I don't know what to do" she said.

"You really like Ron?" Harry asked her.

"Yeah but you know what I'm going out with dean right" she said.

"Yeah" said Harry.

"Well I should be loyal to him but seeing Hayley and Ron together makes me sad and depressed" she said tearing up.

"Hey look if it's any consolation I'll be here to help you through it if you want?" he said.

"Sure thanks Harry you're a really good friend you know" she said.

"That's okay. You still wanna go to Hogsmeade?" he asked her.

"Sure" she said.

And then they hugged and walked off in the direction of Hogsmeade.

llllllllllllllllllllllll

When they got there they decided to go to Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes to see how business was going.

When they got in there however they saw Hayley and Ron together all over each other again. Harry felt Hermione's hand tighten around his.

Hayley looked over in his direction but Harry just kept walking on towards the counter to see if they had any Zeffers in stock and also to see the solution for a Rowabelt solution which made the drinkers body controlled by the person who made it. Harry had used it many times so he was just over at the counter so he didn't have to talk to her.

"Oh I can't stand it Harry can we leave please" Hermione asked looking over in their direction.

"Sure" said Harry glad for the excuse to leave.

They decided they wanted to go to the three broomsticks for a Butterbeer and a chat.

"Hi Madam Rosmerta can I have two Butterbeer's please" said Harry.

"Sure darling is there anything else" she asked.

"Umm no thanks that will do" said Harry.

"Okay I'll bring them over to you" said Madam Rosmerta.

So they chose a secluded table over in a corner and sat waiting for the Butterbeer's to arrive.

"Are you sure you're okay Harry" asked Hermione after a while.

"Yeah" he said absentmindedly.

"No Harry I know you too well to see that you are not okay what's wrong?" she asked.

Just at that moment Ron and Hayley walked in hand in hand.

"I can't stand seeing those two together because the thought that, that could have been me is eating me up inside" he said tears coming to his eyes.

"Look Harry why don't we get our Butterbeer's and walk back up to the school?" Hermione asked him.

"Sure ill be glad to get away" said Harry.

llllllllllllllllllllllll

After that day Harry avoided eating at the same time as Ron and Hayley because he found the pain unbearable.

However when he was walking to divination being five minutes late from leaving his bag in the dormitory that morning he heard someone call his name.

"Harry" they yelled.

"What" he said with a feeling he knew who it was.

"Why have you been avoiding me" asked Hayley.

"What do you mean" Harry asked.

"You know perfectly well what I mean" she said.

"Oh yeah I spose" he said.

"So why have you been avoiding me?" she asked again.

"Isn't it obvious" he said.

"No Harry I have no idea what you mean" she said.

"Well it's just that I can't stand seeing you and Ron together with the knowledge that, that could have been me. I can't stand it" he said tears coming to his eyes.

"Harry you told me to say yes to him, you told me" she said.

"You actually think I was serious" Harry said.

"Ah well good point" she said.

"Well look Harry I'm really sorry please don't be angry at me" she said.

"Yeah well fine whatever ill talk to you later" he said.

Then Harry walked off and left her behind him looking very confused and upset.

When he got to divination and had uttered a hurried apology to Professor Trelawney there was only one seat left and that was beside Ron.

"Hi" said Ron.

Harry ignored him.

"Okay then" said Ron.

Just then Professor Trelawney walked up to them and asked them where their homework was which once again Harry hadn't done.

So he had just landed himself a divination detention when Ron decided to try and talk to him again.

"So how are you" he asked.

"Shit" Harry said.

"Why?" Ron asked.

"Oh I wonder why" he said.

"Oh I get it" he said comprehension dawning on his face.

"Yeah well don't talk about it okay" snapped Harry.

"Sure whatever" said Ron.

After that not another word was said between them for the rest of the day.

When Harry got back to his dormitory that night he got out his guitar and a pen and paper and wrote this song:

She's an extraordinary girl

In an ordinary world

And she can't seem to get away

He lacks the courage in his mind

Like a child left behind

Like a pet left in the rain

She's all alone again wiping the tears from her eyes

Some days he feels like dying

She gets so sick of crying

She sees a mirror of herself

An image she wants to sell

To anyone willing to buy

He steals the image in her kiss

From her hearts apocalypse

From the one called Whatsername

She's all alone again wiping the tears from her eyes

Some days he feels like dying

Some days it's not worth trying

Now that we both are finding

She gets so sick of crying

With that Harry fell down on the bed crying and fell asleep clothes and all.

A/N: The song in this fic was from my other one extraordinary girl. It was my first one so it was crap but please R&R.
