"James! Hurry up, we're going to be late!" yelled a sixteen year old Cassandra Taylor while rushing through the train station.

James Potter II just rolled his eyes and jogged after her to catch up. "Relax, Cassie, we have plenty of time!" he reassured his best friend, who was chewing on her nails nervously while dragging her trunk behind her.

"You alwayssay that, James Sirius," retorted Cassandra. "We almost missedthe Hogwarts Express altogether last time!"

James then made a point of looking away. "Blame my dad," he said quickly.

Cassandra rolled her eyes. She suddenly brightened. "We're here!" she exclaimed, and rushed through the brick wall.

James shook his head and smiled. You could always count on his redheaded friend to be overly-excited about everything, no matter how small it was.

Walking leisurely through the barrier, he saw a sight that immediately made him turn cold. Cassandra was laughing and talking to Aaron Jones, who she had magically stopped hating in fourth year. James still hated the bloke, although he had no idea why.

"Face it, mate, you're jealous," said a voice behind him. James turned to see his cousin Fred leaning against his trunk and shaking his head sadly. "I. Am. Not. Jealous," huffed James.

Fred just rolled his eyes and stood up straight, stretching his arms above his head. "Ah, don't flatter yourself, Jamsiepoo," he said, yawning. "I've seen the way you look at her."

James could feel his face becoming warmer. He tried to restrain the red color from flowing into his face, but it was no use. "See? You're blushing!" sang Fred, starting to dance around.

"Shut it, Fred! I don't want her to hear!" hissed the black-haired Potter. Fred stopped dancing, but looked smug. "So you doadmit you like her, then?"

This time, the blush slipped easily into James's cheeks. "Maybe," he mumbled.

"What did you say, mate? I couldn't hear you there," said Fred, an evil grin spreading across his face.

"I said maybe," growled James, gritting his teeth together.

"I TOLD YOU SO, I TOLD YOU SO, I TOLD YOU SO!" sang Fred at the top of his lungs, dancing around again. Thankfully the noise of the train station blocked out his song, but James noticed Cassandra glance towards the two of them and immediately felt his face flush yet again.

"Shutup,Fred!" exclaimed an exasperated James.

"Oh, don't worry, Jamsie, I won't tell!" said Fred, giggling like a little girl that had just gotten a new doll. James's redheaded cousin then sauntered off to his girlfriend of two years, Kasey.

James sighed. What had he gotten himself into?
