Hope Has Returned Chapter 27 (Harry's POV)

The first Hogsmead trip finally came. Ginny said she would go with her friends so I went with Ron and Hermione. Throughout the trip they would stare at each other and share food and drinks. Half way through I had had enough.

"Well I'm doing trespassing on your love-life so I'll be around." And I got up and left.

"Harry you can stay!" Hermione yelled after me.

"No thanks I think I've had enough of being the third-wheel for one day" and I threw on my invisibility cloak then walked out. When I turned around they were snogging. Ha! They had been annoyed of me being there. As I was walking down the street I saw a music store so I looked in the window. In the store there was a amazing guitar. I pulled of my cloak and walked in. I looked at the guitar and then at the price tag. Only ten Galleons! I've always know how to play but no one knew. I grabbed it and bought it. Of course I had to go through the 'hey your famous so I'm going to talk your ear off' treatment. Once I left I put my cloak back on and walked back up to the common room. When I got in it was empty so I pulled off my cloak and grabbed my guitar. I thought of any muggle songs that I knew. I instantly thought of my favorite one. Demons by imagine dragons. I took out the pick and plucked a core. It sounded great! Well let's see how much I remember.

"When the days are cold

And the cards all fold

And the saints we see

Are all made of gold

When your dreams all fail

And the ones we hail

Are the worst of all

And the blood's run stale

I wanna hide the truth

I wanna shelter you

But with the beast inside

There's nowhere we can hide

No matter what we breed

We still are made of greed

This is my kingdom come

This is my kingdom come

When you feel my heat

Look into my eyes

It's where my demons hide

It's where my demons hide

Don't get too close

It's dark inside

It's where my demons hide

It's where my demons hide

Curtain's call

Is the last of all

When the lights fade out

All the sinners crawl

So they dug your grave

And the masquerade

Will come calling out

At the mess you've made

Don't wanna let you down

But I am hell bound

Though this is all for you

Don't wanna hide the truth

No matter what we breed

We still are made of greed

This is my kingdom come

This is my kingdom come

When you feel my heat

Look into my eyes

It's where my demons hide

It's where my demons hide

Don't get too close

It's dark inside

It's where my demons hide

It's where my demons hide

They say it's what you make

I say it's up to fate

It's woven in my soul

I need to let you go

Your eyes, they shine so bright

I wanna save that light

I can't escape this now

Unless you show me how

When you feel my heat

Look into my eyes

It's where my demons hide

It's where my demons hide

Don't get too close

It's dark inside

It's where my demons hide

It's where my demons hide." And with my final note I strung my guitar. I put it down and smiled. I had done well.

"HOLY CRAP HARRY WAS THAT YOU! I NEVER KNEW YOU COULD PLAY!" Ron yelled from the shadows.

"You-you heard it all?" I asked nervously. My secret is out.

"YES I HEARD IT ALL! Hermione and I walked in when you plucked the guitar. I though you were going to see what you could do but no! YOU ACTUALLY KNOW HOW TO PLAY! How long have you known?" he yelled again.

"Ermmmm since I was 9." I said thinking hard.

"AND I DIDNT KNOW?"

"Well no one knew and down it is just the three of us."

"Make that four!" Ginny said and the. Stepped out from the stairway to the girls dormitories.

"What WHAT?" I said even more embarrassed.

"Harry I walked in just before you and when I walked down you stared plucking at your guitar and I knew that you knew how to play." She said.

"How-how did you know?" I said nervous now.

"I could tell when you sat down with your guitar that you knew what you were doing."

"Oh okay."

"It was beautiful!" and she kissed be lightly on the cheek.

"Thanks" I said looking at her.

"We think it was great too Harry." Hermione said from next to Ron.

"Thanks again" I said to them. Ginny blew me a kiss and I returned it. She left to meet back up with her friends and Ron and Hermione went out by the lake to do homework so I was left alone again. I grabbed my broom and headed to the pitch. I flew for a while in till it got dark. I landed and then headed back to the common room. I walked in to see my guitar on the floor so I picked it up. Everyone jumped out at me and started yelling things like 'is that yours Harry?' and 'can you play?'. I looked at them and said.

"Yes I can play and yes this is mine. It was on sale in Hogsmead so I bought it." I turned and went up to the dormitories to change and go to bed.

"Sorry Harry you left it in the common room so everyone was wondering who it belongs to and I told them." Ron said looking sorry.

"It okay they would of found out eventually." I said reassuring him. He went to bed and everyone else trickled in and then went to bed. I stayed up late and thought I'd write a song.
