Sorry this took so long. Life has been crazy. I hope you enjoy.

Harry watched as Ron and Hermione left his studio. He saw the tears and disappointment on their faces. He knew what they were thinking.

"Why didn't he come to us? We could have helped him through this."

Harry knew they could and they would have if he had asked. He had thought about it. He almost did, but then he figured out that this was something he needed to do by himself. He had depended on his best friends for so much. This was something he wanted and had to do himself.

Harry turned the opposite direction and headed down the stairs to the backally.

As soon as both his feet hit the street Harry apperated to the London apperation center.

As soon as Harry got his barrings he grabbed a map and put himself in line.

Every few minutes Harry would take another step toward starting over. As he was shuffling toward his new life he looked carefully at the map to figure out where he was going.

Spain and Italy were bouncing around in his head when he heard a voice upfront. Who ever this person was he was not happy. Harry caught snipits of what the man was saying. "..Merlin.....tapping.....insaine.."

Harry trying to look around people to see what was going. Standing on his toes and moving his head like a Dr.Who bobble-head Harry finally gave up. It was no use and he figured it was not his problem.

Once again Harry took one more step toward his destination. The feeling of butterflies were starting to errupt in his stomach. Filled with excitement and fear he looked around to see how close he was getting to the counter.

Out of the corner of his eye Harry saw a tall figure with white blonde hair disapperate on the apperation deck. One question came to Harry's mind. Was that Malfoy?

"Next!"

"NEXT!"

"Oh that's me." Harry said quickly as he went up to the counter.

"Where to?" said the bored lady behind the counter. Not bothering to even look at Harry.

"I would like to go to Rome, Italy." Harry said matter of factly, with a small smile on his face.

"Rome, Italy" repeated the girl at the counter.

Harry now understood why the Draco look alike got so upset. The constant tapping was a bit graiting.

With a flick of her wand the girl produced Harry's ticket for Rome, Italy.

Harry darted to the apperation deck. On his face was a smile as big Cheshire Cat. He was on his way to a new beginning.
