chap 5 - Truth
Harry took a deep breath, knowing he would have to fill in his friend about the life he had hoped no-one would find out about.
'well ...' harry began.
Harry paused. he couldnt seem to find the right words. how do you explain to your friends that you've been lying to them?
'see Ron, the thing is... er... the dursleys gave me the injuries. they beat me.' Harry finally said, waiting nervously for Rons reaction. he didnt have to wait long.
'WHAT? you mean the dursleys did this? where the bloody hell is he? i'll hurt him so bad he wont know which ways right' Ron babbled on until Harry broke in.
'Ron stop. its not as if i didnt deserve them.'
Hermione let out a chocked gasp, and Harry realized what he had said. Ron looked confuzed again.
' What do you mean you deserved them? you didn't blow up another Aunt did you? did you do magic on them or something?' Ron asked.
'no just forget about it okay.' harry said hurridly wishing they would leave before anything else he didnt want them knowing slipped out of his mouth. Hermione watched him close himself off again and let out a small sigh. she could tell what was going on in his head. she always could.
that was one of the reasons she was so suprised that harry had managed to keep this from her. she knew Harry was feeling guilty, but she couldnt fix that on her own.
' Sorry guys but im a bit tired. would you mind letting me get some sleep for awhile?' Harry asked, breaking the silence.
'Of course Harry. We'll come see you later okay?' Hermione replied.
but Harry had already closed his eyes and seemed to be drifting of to sleep. Ron walked out the door first. Hermione turned round and looked at Harrys still form.
'Goodnight Harry' she whispered a single tear rolling down her cheek, as she closed the door behind her.
Harry rolled over and stared at the door where Hermione had stood a moment before. Harry knew it was gunna be harder this year to hide himself from Hermione, but he knew he couldnt let her get close. he couldnt let anyone get close. they'd only end up like Sirius and Harry never wanted that to happen.
He knew that he'd have to distance himself from everyone, for their own safety. He couldnt let them get hurt because of him and Voldemort and the damn prophecy. no, he was going to be all alone this year.
Harry sighed and rolled back over, took his dreamless sleep potion and got ready to escape the reality of his life for once.
was that any good? please review:) id really apreciate it! sorry it was quite short!
