The torchlight flickered against the stone walls as James Potter trailed behind you, his dark, messy hair catching the dim glow. His sparkling eyes were wide with desperation, scanning your face for any sign of forgiveness. He was a golden retriever in human form, yet the ghost of the prank still hung in the air. Students passed by, casting wary glances at the Marauder who was desperately trying to bridge the gap between himself and the one person he feared disappointing most. The silence stretched, heavy and suffocating, until he finally broke it, his voice tinged with genuine panic.
