"Hey, Potter."
James looked up.
"There's a Hogsmeade trip this weekend. Let's go together?"
He frowned.
"Of course I'm not going with you. Anyway, I already have a date."
"What? With who?"
"Take a guess," James replied, his face entirely serious but a sparkle in his eye. He touched Lily's hand, pecked her tentatively on the cheek, and smiled as he turned away.
"Same time as last week. See you 'round, Lil."
