Saving Harry Chapter 4: Happy Ending final Chapter, a harry potter fanfic

A/N: I tried to decipher the verses to this song as well as I could, but they are really poetic and...methaphorical? Whatever, the point is this is another song-chapter and I am so proud of myself for getting the next chapter out so soon. But I was motivated to get it out soon because I got my first review!!! I am so happy and proud of myself; they weren't even flames! YAY:)

It was a few weeks later and Harry kept hearing a voice speaking to him in the back of his mind, telling him what he didn't want to know. It seemed as if every day it got louder and louder, and he knew that the voice had been there before. He just hadn't been listening. And now that there was proof of what he suspected all along, he couldn't stop thinking about it. So now he was here, in the Hogshead drinking his confusion away; he was so glad that the barkeeper didn't care enough about the law to refuse an underage wizard some Firewhiskey, but he didn't quite know why exactly he was here.

Somewhere there's speaking
It's already coming in
Oh and it's rising at the back of your mind
You never could get it
Unless you were fed it
Now you're here and you don't know why

But past all his past mistakes and past hurts with Draco, and as much as he wanted to avoid him, he had gotten used to having him in his life. So as he walked past the corridors of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry on his way to the Fat Lady's portrait so he could pass out in peace, he cried out the name of the man he was quickly falling in love with. He needed him, much more than he needed Ron, he needed him.

His Draco.

When had he started calling him that?

He cried out his name and waited, waited and listened for the reply he knew would never come, because Draco wouldn't talk to him.

Can you blame him? You must have hurt him so much, rejecting his love and then telling him you couldn't be friends anymore, that evil little voice in the back of he mind piped up.

Shut it, was always his response.

But under skinned knees and the skid marks
Past the places where you used to learn
You howl and listen
Listen and wait for the
Echoes of angels who won't return

After Ron's short period of hating Harry, Ron had become so sweet to him. He was everything Harry needed, everything he wanted; he was perfect, so why didn't he mean anything to him.

Because he didn't, did he? He couldn't have, not when all Harry could think about was Draco. Sweet, beautiful Draco. Ron didn't mean anything to him anymore, and that wasn't fair to him. He had to break up with him, because dating him while being in love with Draco just wasn't fair to him. Both of them would end up getting hurt.

He's everything you want
He's everything you need
He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why

Harry needed someone who treated him as a normal person, not a famous war hero. Draco could do that, and Ron couldn't because Ron had grown up worshiping his name and considering him his hero, so that was what he was going to do all his life; he would turn his back on Harry as soon as he did something Ron didn't think he should have done, being the hero and all. But Draco was different; because Draco had grown up learning to hate Harry, he saw him for what he was, but he loved him anyway. Harry needed someone like that to love him and be with him forever. Someone who was willing to push him away, and had before. Someone like Draco.

Every time Harry and Ron thought they had discovered and settled all their differences, they found another wound that the other needed to heal. And every time they had a conversation, Harry always seemed to wait for Ron to say something more, but he never said whatever it was Harry was waiting for.

You're waiting for someone
To put you together
You're waiting for someone to push you away
There's always another wound to discover
There's always something more you wish he'd say

Harry needed Ron, because Ron was the perfect boyfriend when they weren't fighting, but he didn't want him anymore. He wanted Draco.\

But Harry didn't have the heart to break up with Ron, he wasn't that mean. So he would just sit back and watch it unwind, hoping for the courage to break it off with Ron or that Ron would break up with him, but he knew it would probably never happen.

Every night, that is what he prayed for, that he would be given a secand chance at love - or at least friendship - with Draco; he hoped against hope that his dream would come true, but didn't expect them to.

"I'll be just fine. I will." Harry said to himself as he changed into his pajamas and got into bed. And in the morning he would corner Draco and demand to talk to him. As Harry fell asleep he realized that he would have a lot of time on his hands, with his decision to avoid Ron and his friendship with Draco ending.

But you'll just sit tight
And watch it unwind
It's only what you're asking for
And you'll be just fine
With all of your time
It's only what you're waiting for

((ONE WEEK LATER))

When Harry finally rediscovered his courage and tracked down Draco and ranted and raved about how stupid he had been to turn him away, all Draco could say was finally before kissing him so passionately, that Harry's knees buckled, so Draco had to hold him up. They decided to hide their secret relationship until Harry found the heart to break up with his boyfriend of two years. And althought they knew they would have to deal with many horrible concequences, they also knew it was worth it, because finally, they were happy. Harry realized that although maybe he was the savior of the wizarding world, including Draco, Draco had also saved him.

finis

A/N: I know most of you probably want to burn me at the stake for making Harry CHEAT ON Ron, but Ron deserved it. And I've decided that although Harry really wants to break up with him, he thinks him and Ron have been through too much to break off all contact now with him and the Weasely family, which is what he knows they would do.

Oh, and there will be a sequal, but this story is finished.
