hey can you guys help me here with a bitpay question

I paid for something on friday and I messed it up somehow, i sent 1.5 bitcoin when I was supposed to pay approx 2

so my bitpay transaction is frozen as "invoice expired before fully paid" on bitpay.

what happens if I do the following

1) call the merchant to ask them to contact bitpay, and release the payment to then even though it was too little? does the merchant get the USD amount for the time of the transaction from friday when the 1.5 BTC were sent? and I can just send them the difference in USD?
2) contact bitpay and ask them to refund the transaction? how does that work? do i get back 1.5 BTC back or do i get the equivalent USD back in BTC as of friday rate? now obviously less BTC than 1.5?
