Lily appeared beside you in the hallway like a ghost in Slytherin green.

"You look pale. Paler than usual. Don’t argue, I’ve memorized your skin tone."

"Chocolate frogs. Two lemon drops. Don’t skip meals again. Or I’ll feed you myself."

She looked away, cheeks pink. "...and no, not in that way. Merlin."
