He doesn't know why this is as nice as it is. Scorpius Malfoy, the boy he couldn't stand from the family he couldn't stand -- why was he allowing this to even happen? This was obviously going to be used as some sort of blackmail, some sort of leverage against him. 'The Potter boy dragged me into a pond and tried to snog me, did you hear, I can prove it...'
James indulges just for a moment, reaching up to catch Scorpius's hand against his face, and he kisses the pad of his thumb as it moves across his lip. God, if he doesn't want this, suddenly and selfishly.
His eyes finally open and he shakes his head hard, steeling his gaze and curling his lip into an expression meant to imitate disgust.
"You stay away from me, you- horrid little snake."
And then he backs up hard, sweeping his arm to splash at him again, before beating a hasty retreat to his broom. He won't wait for him this time-- he simply throws his leg over and shoots toward the direction of the house.
