"I have a message from Marlene."

"Good morning to you too Hestia."

"Sorry, morning Lil. Anyway, Marlene says she's not coming to breakfast until she's certain that you won't hex her."

"Guess she'll go hungry then."

"Lily, c'mon it was just a bit of fun."

"Hestia, she locked me in a broom cupboard for five hours with James Potter. Not only that, I missed every important lesson I had yesterday and a meeting with Dumbledore. I'm going to hex her, deal with it."

"She's sorry though. And she's avoided you for almost 12 hours, I'm sure she can continue."

"I don't think so."

"Pardon?"

"See, I sort of reckoned she would hide, and that breakfast would be my best option to deal with her. So I asked the house elves to only make pancakes for breakfast, told them it was a special muggle tradition that actually happens in spring. Anyway, you know as well as anyone that if there's one thing Marlene McKinnon loves more than Quidditch, its pancakes for breakfast. Since it's a Saturday, I have no time to waste waiting for her. Why are you looking at me funnily?"

"How did you convince the house elves?"

"Well, I went to the kitchen and asked them politely."

"How do you know where the kitchen is?"

"That's not important."

"Lily?"

"Just wait 'til Marlene finds out there's pancakes, she won't know what to do with herself."

"How will she find out? Her sense of smell isn't that strong."

"I sent Moss to give her a bit of pancake wrapped in parchment."

"You're scary sometimes Lily Evans."

"Stop being dramatic Hest, it's just simple payback."

"Morning Lily, Hest."

"Morning Al, you sleep well?"

"Not that well, Dorcas forgot to silence Emmeline so the snoring was horrendous."

"Good thing about being Head Girl: own room with no one snoring."

"Oh shush Evans."

"Someone jealous Jones?"

"Yes. Quite simply, yes."

"Oh! I know I had something to ask you. Why is Marlene yelling at your owl about pancake in parchment?"

"Lily is training to be Potter's new partner in crime."

"Oh is that so? Well, I call Maid of Honour."

"Why does she leave every time you talk about her future with him?"

"Pride."
