meet - Jegulus - November 20th - @stag-microfic - word count: 332

"Dad?"

James looked up from his book to see his sixteen-year old son standing awkwardly in the doorway, looking like he wanted to be anywhere but there. "What's up, Haz?" he asked gently, placing the hardcover down on the table and patting the empty space on the couch.

Harry sat down gingerly and frowned, green eyes troubled. "Don't laugh, alright?"

"Of course," James nodded, frowning. "What is it?"

"Remember when you used to read me stories, when I was little? About people who would go out and meet 'the one' and fall in love at first sight, and everything ended happily ever after?" Harry asked, still looking uncomfortable.

James nodded, not understanding. "Yes...why?"

"What if it's...not like that?" Harry mumbled, looking down at his hands and shifting awkwardly. "Does that mean it's not right?"

Dawning comprehension flooded through James and he tried to answer without seeming too eager. He didn't want to embarrass Harry, after all. "Prongslet, those were stories. You know that your Pa and I didn't fall in love at first sight, right? I mean...he bloody hated me!"

Harry chuckled at that and met his eyes for a moment before again frowning. "But you were an obnoxious arse," he pointed out.

"I was," James nodded, suppressing a laugh.

"And I was a stuck-up twat."

Both Harry and James turned to see Regulus in the doorway, a smile on his face. The shorter man joined the two on the couch and spoke again.

"Harry, love isn't like the stories. It doesn't always fall into place. But if you both want it and work at it, then it's usually worth it," Regulus said, looking over Harry's shoulder to give James a small smile.

Harry nodded and sighed. "Alright. Thanks."

James couldn't resist. "Is he a Slytherin, then?" He asked knowingly.

Green eyes shot up to meet his, a shocked look on his son's face. "How'd you know?" Harry demanded.

It was Regulus who burst out laughing. "Like father, like son," he chortled.

"Describe your crush!" Marlene ordered with an evil grin, giggling over her butterbeer. "At least four things."

James's stomach dropped but thankfully, the question wasn't directed at him, it was directed at Remus. Remus, who looked like he wanted to crawl under a rock.

"Er...he's a bit short," the taller boy started out, blushing a bit and avoiding eyes contact.

He. Well, that confirmed James's suspicions. And someone short? No, it had to be a coincidence.

"He's got...really nice black hair," Remus continued, squirming in his seat.

Alright, now James was nervous. Black hair? He only spent all his free time daydreaming about those perfect, shiny black curls and what it might feel like to run his fingers through them.

"He...he has gray eyes," Remus mumbled, biting at his lips and blinking nervously.

Fuck. James was all-out panicking now. Because when he wasn't thinking of black curls he was thinking of one particular shade of gray. And he only knew one person who had such stunning eyes.

"And....he's in our house," Remus finished breathlessly.

What?

James was stumped by that. But before he could properly react, Sirius gasped, mouth open, and turned to Remus. "Me?"

But if he was honest, James was only half paying attention to Remus's responding nod and the way Sirius immediately pulled him from the room to wolf-whistles and claps.

He was too busy being relieved. Because Remus didn't like Regulus Black, and that was who he'd been daydreaming about.

I have this idea to write a Black Brothers through the summers fanfic. Like each chapter is one more year/summer and what their relationship becomes as brothers.

Also, is there anything super important I should add??

[klarolinexluv]

Yes :) hehe

You know who would have made a great dad?

James Potter.

Too bad he died.

“across” - Jegulus microfic - @into-the-jeggyverse - 276 words

Regulus is undeniably beautiful all the time. But one of James’ favorites might be first thing in the morning, before he’s even woken up.

There’s a ray of sunlight shining across his raven black curls—one of which has fallen onto his forehead just begging to be tucked behind his ear, but James won’t risk disturbing him. His forehead and eyebrows are relaxed and free of any worry or stress. His long eyelashes are resting peacefully on his cheeks. His lips are parted just the slightest bit, and his breathing is soft and steady. James could watch Regulus sleep for hours and never get bored.

“Stop watching me sleep, it’s creepy.” Regulus mumbles without opening his eyes.

James’ hand is like a magnet to that one curl now that he knows Regulus isn’t fully asleep.

“I’m not watching you sleep. I’m admiring your beauty.” James tells him as he tucks the curl behind his ear.

“While I’m sleeping, so it’s still creepy.” Regulus’ soft, groggy morning voice is one of James’ other favorite things.

“Are you awake now?” James asks as he leans in and kisses Regulus forehead.

“No.”

James chuckles softly. “You’re not?”

“No. Go away.” Regulus mutter softly but he shifts slightly and moves his head to rest on James’ chest.

“I can’t really go away with you on top of me, love.” James wraps his arm around Regulus, pulling him in.

“Shhh. ‘m sleeping.” Regulus snuggles impossibly closer.

“Okay.” James whispers and kisses the top of his curls.

Regulus’ breathing evens out quickly as he falls back to sleep. James squeezes him once before he drifts back to sleep right along with him.

Now I hate to make James a villain but regulily starting off as James having an overlap in his relationships with both of them is just....guilty pleasure

Like he's with regulus but he doesn't have the heart to break up with him so he starts dating Lily at the same time and they keep it secret until after he finds the guts to end it with reg. and because Lily and Regulus aren't friends it's never pieced together and he thinks he's gotten away with it.

And it goes smoothly for a while until Regulus overhears Lily talking to Mary about how it's her 7 month anniversary with James soon but...they only broke up 4 months ago?

He decides that out of both a need for revenge and guilt of knowing but not telling her, Lily needs to know and pulls her aside at some point to warn her that James had an overlap in the relationship. He doesn't expect her to care too much as it wasn't her who was cheated on but the idea that she'd been lied and that he'd hurt someone else that way gets to her. She's got the 'if he did it for me he'd do it on me' idea even if the James she knows wouldn't.

She calls it off and Reg feels bad for ruining her life but they slowly bond and grow to realise that they actually work pretty well together. They're just best friends a at first but then it grows into something more.

“Reg, I need to talk to you,” Sirius said, sitting on a bench next to his brother and frowning. “I don’t know what to do.

Instantly worried by Sirius’s sincere demeanor, Regulus placed his homework to the side and turned. “What is it?”

“I think James is gay. Or not straight, anyway.”

Regulus could have listed ten things, a hundred things, a million things that he thought Sirius was worried about, and he still wouldn’t have come up with this. It took all of his self-control not to gasp or choke or laugh. “Why d-do you think that?” he asked, stifling all of his emotions.

Clearly not picking up on Regulus’s struggle, Sirius shrugged, staring into the distance. “Well, he’s definitely meeting up with someone. He comes back to the dorm room late and he’s been happy lately. Even happier than usual. He’s fucking floating on air most of the time, if I’m honest.”

Trying not to flush with pride at the fact that he was the one making James so happy, Regulus gave a noncommittal grunt, his own fear of being outed outweighing his happiness. “Why would that mean he’s meeting a boy, though?”

“Why would he hide a girl?” Sirius questioned softly, frowning. “Plus, he’s been asking me questions. First he kept asking about how I knew I was queer. How did I figure out I liked blokes, what it was like to be with a bloke, things like that. But now it’s about how I knew I loved Moony, how I knew he was the one for me…seems like whoever it is, it’s serious, you know?”

Hardly daring to breathe, Regulus nodded. His emotions were a swirling storm. Panic at someone finding out. Fear at his parents’ reaction. Overwhelming joy at what Sirius had said. He and James hadn’t said those words yet, but he’d been feeling them for a while. It was mind-blowing to hear that James might feel the same.

“Hey Reg?”

Still distracted by this revelation, he hummed, brain half half paying attention while he pictured James’s smile in his mind’s eye.

“Can you…can you tell James…whenever he’s ready to tell me about…whoever it is. Can you tell him I’m just happy that he’s so happy?” Sirius asked, eyes wide and mouth in a worried frown. 

He froze, stomach sinking to his toes. “Wh-why would I-?” he began, trying and failing to sound casual. Fuck. Fuck, did Sirius know? How did anyone find out? Oh Gods, what would happen now? What–?

“Just…” Sirius said thoughtfully, a small smile on his face, “I get that it can be scary. To be open about stuff like that. So…if you see him around or whatever, and he’s with whoever he’s seeing. Tell them both I’m happy for them, and I’m there for them. Whatever they need. Alright?”

Desperately biting his lip to hold back tears, Regulus nodded. “Yeah,” he said gruffly, avoiding Sirius’s gaze. “I will. If I see them, that is.”

“Thanks, Reg.”

"Holy fuck," James said, his voice an almost-wistful whine as he and his friends walked towards Regulus. "He looks so..."

And Regulus did look so... Dressed for their date in a button-down black shirt and matching trousers that hugged his arse in the most delicious way, James couldn't help but openly gape. How in the world had he gotten this lucky?

"James," Sirius said through tight lips. "Are you staring at my baby brother's arse?"

"I-" he took a deep breath and tried to think of an excuse, but found none as he again lost all intelligent thought when looking at the beautiful boy across the Great Hall. "I'm staring respectfully," he murmured, already grimacing at Sirius's future response.

But as he dodged Sirius's punch, he couldn't help but inhale, because Regulus was turning towards him and smiling shyly.

And that smile made him feel a thousand times more light-headed than the black trousers did.

"You know he's in love with you, right?"

Sirius's question took James completely aback, and he looked up from blatantly staring at Regulus from across the room to look over at his friend. "What?" he asked, sure he'd misheard.

Sirius sighed. "At first...well, at first, I wasn't sure you two made sense. I wanted it to work out, of course, but I was bloody nervous." He chuckled and gave a small grin. "But I just...have you noticed? He's so happy lately. And it's you. You've done that, you know?"

Pinching his lips together to stop himself from all-out beaming with pride, James smiled. "You think?" he whispered, glancing over to where Regulus was smiling with his friends.

"Yeah. He's never acted this way with anyone," Sirius nodded, eyes wide and genuine.

James couldn't help himself. He ginned, eyes crinkling and entire body warming as he saw his boyfriend laugh softly, his features lighting up. "Well...I'm in love with him too, so..."

Sirius just chuckled. "I know that, Prongs. You're not exactly subtle, either."

“try” - Jegulus microfic - @into-the-jeggyverse - 384 words

James is standing by the bar staring at the most beautiful man he’s ever seen. He hasn’t been able to take his eyes off him the entire night. However, it’s the guy sitting across from the beautiful man that eventually grabs James’ attention and nods for him to come over. 

As James is walking over to the table, the guy is mischievously smirking at him. James gives him a curious look and the guy’s smile grows as he flicks his eyes to the beautiful man then looks back at James and raises a questioning eyebrow. James smiles and hesitantly nods, but he has no idea what he’s just gotten himself into.

“I’m Barty.” The guy introduces himself as soon as James gets to the table.

“James.” James shakes Barty’s hand.

“Are you single?” Barty asks.

“Barty.” The beautiful man hisses.

“Yes, I’m single.” James answers with a chuckle.

“Are you straight?” Barty asks.

“Oh my god!” The man says and drops his head in his hands.

James looks over and the man lifts his head slightly and he is the most adorable shade of red all the way up to his ears and he gives James a small, shy, apologetic smile.

“I am most definitely not straight.” James answers Barty but doesn’t take his eyes off the man.

“Are you kinky?” Barty asks.

“What?” James looks back at Barty at the same time the man seems to kick him under the table.

“Ouch!” Barty yelps, but he’s not deterred. “Are you kinky?” He asks again with a smirk.

“Well…” James starts with a smirk of his own. “I guess it depends what your kinks are, but I’ll try anything once.” James tells him.

“Great! This is my friend, Regulus, and he’d love to dance with you.” Barty finally introduces the beautiful man, who is now an even deeper shade of red.

“Hi, Regulus.” James smiles as he reaches out his hand and Regulus slowly lifts his eyes to look at him. “Would you like to dance?”

“You don’t have to—"

“Because I’ve been wanting to dance with you all night.” James smiles even wider.

Regulus looks at James for a moment then shifts his eyes to quickly glare at Barty then looks back at James and his expression settles into a sweet smile.

“Sure.” Regulus says and he takes James’ hand.
