"Lily Flower! How was your Holiday?" James bounded into the Prefects carriage, smiling his winsome smile.

"Potter. What are you doing here?" Lily Hissed, "this is a closed carriage for prefects, which you are not."

"Maybe not my dear darling Lily, but it's also open to the Head boy."

"I don't believe you, Professor Dumbledore wouldn't...Professor McGonagall would never allow it."

James handed her his Head Boy badge, and Lily just stopped, speechless at the undeniable evidence James had just presented her with.

She was speechless, and all she could think was it was going to be a long year.
