As Lily and I walked along the corridor, heading for the prefects' meeting, I stole a sidelong glance at her, wondering how such perfection could be combined in one person.
I regretted looking at her instantly afterwards. She sped up and hurtled away from me.
"Lily! Wait!"
She slowed down, eying me with her trademark expression of deep dislike. "What is it, Malfoy?"

I shook my head. "I can't do that."
"Why?"
"Because I don't fancy Rose."
"Why?"
"I fancy someone else."
"Who?"
But looking at her, I realized I could never tell her.
