Word count:501

Cormac considered himself a good boy. Well he could be mean, but he considered himself hated the way people saw him, the way they perceived him.

He was not a player, he had never been, he hadn't dated more than two girls in all his school twas a at Hogwarts and that night at the party with one third if the Golden trio did not count. She had avoided him all night like the plague, he had felt horrible. That bad was to stat with him? Should he question himself?

But what more could he do? He was like a fish out of water, he did not know that to do. He wondered how they could name him a player,when every girl left him. He had never broke up with anyone. He had been abandoned. There was always someone better, someone who was not a heart breaker...Guess who he had seen few months back getting a heart broken? His ex girlfriend.

He did not understand how their minds worked. He had hoped that Hermione was different, well truth was she was different. If she had been truly interested in him that is. But he knew that the only reason she had asked him was to make Ron Weasley jealous. To make him look at her.

And she had succeed.

It had hurt to be used like this. He couldn't understand why they did bit understand, how they couldn't see that he had feelings. That he wanted to help. That he was a good boy.

That's the way he had been raised by his parents. Cirmac felt a pang of pain in his chest while thinking of his parents. They did not know how he was perceived at school. Or that he did not have ant friends. Real friends. But he just couldn't bring himself to tell them. It would break their heart. Or that he had no girlfriend. That all of them had left him.

The last one had said that she was going to visit her mother and she had never come back. That had happened in the summer holidays. Just few months back. He had felt a wave splash him when he had heard what she had said. The girl lived two houses from where he lived and at the moment age had said they were eating ice cream.

At first he hadn't even understood what she had said. How in the world?! Visit mummy!Hmf!

After that he had found out that she had moved out. That she had left. And she had never told her. And at school she avoided him at any cost.

It had hurt a bit, he had to admit. Well,it had hurt a lot more, but what could he do more?

Girls just didn't see him as a good boy. They were afraid of him. Not breaking theirs hearts.

He hoped with all his heart that he would not remain single.
