Harry's tried of being the 'Golden Boy'. He just wants to be himself. Not 'The Boy Who Lived' or 'The Famous One'. Just plain old Harry. He wants to be an ordinary wizard. He wants to find someone who likes him for who he is, not his scar, or because he's famous. He gets kicked out of his home, and goes and lives with one of his fellow band members. He performs at a club, and the least expectant person is there. Harry just has to make his life more complicated by falling in love with that person.
