Harry sat against the wall leading to the office that Draco stood in; hot tears fell down his face. Was this him now no innocence left all wasted to world that never saw fit to save him after he saved them? His friends didn't care enough to dig deeper and Draco, he could hear, was walking out of his office, out of his life forever. Was this how his father had felt when he was in school and then when he was being chased down, like there was no way out, nothing left to give for?
Why, you wanna tell me how to live my life?
Who, are you to tell me if it's black or white?
Mama, can you hear me? Try to understand.
Is the innocence the difference between a boy and a man.
My daddy lived the lie; it's just the price that he paid.
Sacrificed his life, just slavin' away.
He had decided he was going to refuse to Draco if he didn't want to he didn't have to. It wasn't like he had to attend anything anyway, well he did if to show face but he could deal, he was sure he could. He wanted to love his life to the full and if that meant distancing himself then he would, he had always worked better alone he wasn't about to change now.
Ohhh, if there's one thing I hang onto,
It gets me through the night.
I aint gonna do what I don't want to,
Im gonna live my life.
Harry felt better after that, so much so the next he spent putting on a show, he ate, he wore his best robes, he was on the proverbial air, even if superficial was enough to keep Harry afloat. Until he received his reply from Neville.
'I am afraid Harry that I can not do that, though you helped me in my years of need if I do this then I risk everything, I know you understand. I wish it didnt have to go this way, but if you don't let the school die with Dumbledore then I will have to force you.
I am truly sorry Mr. Potter. Good luck'
Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice,
Standing on the ledge, show the wind how to fly.
When the world gets in my face,
I say, Have A Nice Day.
Have A Nice Day
He looked around him in, at the hall, he noticed Draco looking for what he was looking for, but Harry only saw the student, how they would be desolate if the school closed, he saw that everything he had provided these kids with was false. He'd never been as good as Dumbledore and didn't understand how he ever would, "I would like to inform you that it may not be such a quiet year after all. I suggest you ready your parents for an attack on Hogwarts from the ministry."
Draco, Hermione and Ron all stood in support of Harry followed by the other Professors, he prayed this would work, or they would have no where to go for schooling and the last of his good memories would be destroyed. He had hit a dead end and he couldn't see a way out but it didn't mean he wasn't going to try.
Take a look around you, look its what he sees.
We're living in a broken home of hopes and dreams,
Let me be the first to shake a helping hand.
Everybody, pray enough to take a stand,
I knocked on every door, on every dead end street,
Looking for forgiveness,
what's left to believe?
He was now hanging on to the fact that Draco was supporting him, but he was to distanced from them now, if this worked he could never think of letting them back in. but he knew if it did work he would probably have to try. He still put on his show, he smiled, twinkled and walked gracefully every where waiting for the battle to come. The year was half gone when he felt the winds change but he knew what he'd say to the minister.
The battle ended up at Hogwarts as it usually did. But he stood on his own, he'd locked everyone else in, he couldn't bare it if they got hurt while he did this, "I don't want to hurt you, please just leave me and the school alone."
"sorry Harry but I cant do that." Neville almost sounded sincere, almost. But Harry was so used to being almost sincere that he picked it up.
"well then minister have a nice day." Harry held his hands in the air, "obliviate!"
A large green wave struck the forces in front of him, the world had got in his way but he had faced them off, "minister what are you and your men doing here?"
"I dunno young man, I think we shall go back, good day to you." Harry smiled and said have a nice day again, the minister looked at him funny and Harry just smiled. When they had left Harry sat on the grass gaining a little bit of strength before going in to face the masses.
Ohhh, if there's one thing I hang onto,
It gets me through the night.
I aint gonna do what I don't want to,
Im gonna live my life.
Shining like a diamond, rolling with the dice,
Standing on the ledge, show the wind how to fly.
When the world gets in my face,
I say, Have A Nice Day.
Have A Nice Day.

Harry walked in Draco smiled but turned away clearly saying what Harry didn't want to hear, but Harry held his head high, he'd known this would happen, "have a nice day Prof. Malfoy."
When The world keeps trying, to drag me down,
Ive gotta raise my hands, gonna stand my ground.
Well I say, Have A Nice Day.
Have A Nice Day
Have A Nice Day
Hope you liked it there might be another part.
