[happier: seventh year, 'happier' by Ed Sheeran used also WARNING there is a scene that might be triggering due to self harm]

HARRY'S POV

"Harry!" A female voice called from behind me.

I turned to see Ginny Weasley there, smiling at me.

"Hey," I gave her the most real smile I could muster.

I've been hanging out with her a lot since mine and Draco's breakup. I thought maybe she could help me get over it, but it doesn't seem to be working. The breakup happened two weeks ago, and it's still killing me, even if I'm the one who initiated it.

"You want to hang out right now?" She asked, grinning at me.

I sighed, "Sorry, Ginny. Maybe later? Right now I just want to go for a walk by myself."

"Oh," disappointment flashed across her face before it disappeared, "yeah, maybe later."

"Bye Ginny," I told her and then climbed out of the portrait hole.

As I walked down random corridors, not paying attention to where I was going, I just thought about everything. Two weeks ago I broke up with Draco, because I thought he deserved someone better than me. He's such a great person, and he deserves someone better than me. Besides, who knows what's going to happen to me when the war happens.

I've seen him a few times over the two weeks, and he looks terrible. He's definitely been crying, and not getting much sleep, or eating much food. I feel absolutely terrible for causing that. He's seen me with Ginny, and he looked devastated, and heartbroken. My heart broke to see his facial expression, the tears brimming in his eyes. I would try to get him back, but he would probably reject me, and I don't blame him.

Suddenly I heard piano, and I realized I was near the music room. I rushed ahead and peered around the doorway. My eyes widened when I saw Draco sitting at the piano. Then he started singing.

"Walking down 29th and park

I saw you in another's arms

Only a month we've been apart

You look happier"

My heart clenched at the words of the song, and I realized he was singing a muggle song, Happier.

"Saw you walk inside a bar

She said something to make you laugh

I saw that both your smiles were twice as wide as ours

Yeah you look happier, you do"

He switched the 'he' to 'she' and I realized he was talking about Ginny and I. He honestly thinks I'm happier with her? That's what I've been trying to make myself feel; happy. It's not working.

"Ain't nobody hurt you like I hurt you

But ain't nobody love you like I do

Promise that I will not take it personal baby

If you're moving on with someone new

'Cause baby you look happier, you do

My friends told me one day I'll feel it too

And until then I'll smile to hide the truth

But I know I was happier with you"

He never hurt me, he was always so great to me. I know that no one could ever love me like he did, and I don't think I could love anyone like I love him. I was happier with him too. My eyes started to tear up at the sad song, and I noticed that he was close to crying.

"Sat in the corner of the room

Everything's reminding me of you

Nursing an empty bottle and telling myself you're happier

Aren't you?"

Everything's reminding me of him as well. I'm definitely not happier, Draco. You're my happiness. I noticed that Draco is crying now, as he's singing.

"Ain't nobody hurt you like I hurt you

But ain't nobody need you like I do

I know that there's others that deserve you

But my darling I am still in love with you

But I guess you look happier, you do

My friends told me one day I'll feel it too

I could try to smile to hide the truth

But I know I was happier with you

Baby you look happier, you do

I knew one day you'd fall for someone new

But if she breaks your heart like lovers do

Just know that I'll be waiting here for you"

Now he removed his hands from the piano and covered his face as he sobbed. My heart broke into pieces as I saw the love of my life heartbroken because of me.

"W-why Draco?" He muttered to himself, "Why did you d-drive Harry away? You must've done s-something! Why did he l-leave? I c-can't live without him!"

I couldn't take it anymore, Draco shouldn't be blaming himself, so I walked over to him. He didn't notice me, he kept on sobbing into his hands, and that's when I noticed his wrists. They had fresh scars on them, probably not that old. He cut because of me? Now I felt truly, utterly angry with myself. I caused my perfect angel to hurt himself!

I leant down and wrapped my arms round him, picked him up, and sat down so that he was on my lap and facing me. He tensed up and pulled away to see me. His eyes widened.

"Harry?" He asked, as if he couldn't believe I was here. He wiped his eyes and looked down. "Why are you here?"

"I heard the song Draco," I told him and lifted his chin up with my finger. I kissed his cheek softly. "I love you Draco, I love you so so so much. I don't love anyone else, not Ginny either. I was never happier with anyone else, I was happy with you."

"Then why did you leave me?" He asked, looking at me with pure heartbreak in his eyes.

"I thought I was making you unhappy, and that you deserved someone better. I don't know what's going to happen to me in the war, either."

Draco furrowed his eyebrows, "Harry, you never made me unhappy, and I don't want anyone else. I want, no I need you. I don't care about what could happen in the war, I just want you to be mine Harry. I love you."

I smiled and pulled him in for a long, passionate kiss. "You make me happier than anyone else Draco."
