Disclaimer: Same as first. I also don't own the song Be Yourself by Audioslave

Author's Note: I got reviews!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so happy. I am so going to be a review whore.

Harry made sure he had all his belongings with him as he prepared to leave the Dursley's for the final time. He shrunk his trunk and Hedwig's cage he had made sure to tell Hedwig to meet him and Hermione at the Leaky Cauldron tomorrow morning. Harry read over the letter he had gotten from Mione one last time before leaving.

Dear Harry,

Happy Birthday!!!!

I can't believe it's finally time! I know we've been talking about it all summer but this is really it, time to be ourselves and take off the masks we've both been wearing for so long. Thank you so much for introducing me to the real Hermione. When you told me how you had been feeling, it was like I finally realized that I felt the same way too.

I can't wait to see the look on Ron's face he's going to have a heart attack (good for the selfish backstabbing bugger) I'm so ready for this; everyone thinks they know exactly who we are. I'm the bookworm, know-it-all with no feelings and you're their golden boy hero who would never do anything wrong. (Yeah right!) I mean really are they blind or just that fucking dense. You've broken more rules in 5 years at Hogwarts then any other student has in its entire history and me? Who came up with the polyjuice plan in second year, me and the coins for the DA last year that was me too. I just don't get it. Okay let me stop ranting and get down to business.

I think I've come up with a foolproof plan to get us resorted. It says in the school rule book that a student may demand to check their house status and that said student can be resorted if the sorting hat feels that the student's personality has changed enough to warrant it. So with the way we are now, we'll be wearing green and silver before you know it. One more thing I was listening to the radio and I found this song that fits the new us perfectly. It's called Be Yourself. Here are the lyrics.

Someone falls to pieces
Sleeping all alone
Someone kills the pain
Spinning in the silence
To finally drift away
Someone gets excited
In a chapel yard
Catches a bouquet
Another lays a dozen
White roses on a grave

To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do

Someone finds salvation in everyone
And another only fame
Someone tries to hide them self
Down inside their selfish brain
Someone swears his true love
Until the end of time
Another runs away
Separate or united?
Healthy or insane?

To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do

You can be fading up
And pulled apart
Or been in love
Every single memory of
Could have been faces of love
Don't lose any asleep tonight
I'm sure everything will end up alright
You may win love

But to be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do

Works pretty well don't you think?

See you on the Knight bus

Love,
Hermione

Harry got up from his seat by the window and put his trunk and Hedwig's cage in one of Dudley's old backpacks and prepared himself to get the hell out of there. He went downstairs and left a note on the Dursley's kitchen table.

To the Dursley's,

Fuck you, I won't be back

Sincerely,

Harry James Potter

He walked out the front door and stuck his wand out waiting for the Knight Bus to arrive. A second later the screaming purple triple Decker bus came to a halt in front of him.

"Hey look its Neville!" Stan said
"Hey Neville, how's it going" Ernie asked
"It's going fine. Did a pretty girl with brown hair get on here looking for me?"
"Yeah, Neville she's on the second floor"

Harry reached the second floor just as the bus rocketed off, Throwing him to the back of the bus. By the time he got himself upright Hermione was standing over him laughing

"I really fucking hate this bus." Harry snarled brushing himself off.
"I know you do but it's the best way for us to get around undetected." Mione replied

Harry and Hermione grabbed on to poles and held on for dear life as the Knight Bus careened through the streets of London finally stopping at the Leaky Cauldron.

Tbc…
