Chapter 2: The snake

TW: mention of intentionally not eating, sad thoughts.

----

"Wake up you little shit," Regulus said trying to wake Barty up. Every morning was like this. The younger Black woke up at 7:30 in the morning, then he got up right after, brushed his teeth, change his clothes and after that, the most annoying part, waking Barty up. "C'mon or we're gonna miss breakfast you twat"

"Mhmm five minutes," Barty mumbled.

Regulus, tired of his friend not cooperating, grabbed his wand, and pointed it up Barty's face.

"Aguamenti,"

"SON OF A BITCH, WHAT. THE. FUCK"

After that little scene, they headed to The Great Hall and had breakfast. It was quiet, peaceful, as usual, he talked a little bit with Barty and other slytherins, but Regulus didn't talk much in the mornings. Or at any time of the day. He only had actual conversations with Barty. Their roomates only were on their room at night for some reason, so they never talked much. Most of the time Regulus was already asleep when they went to sleep. Or sometimes the younger Black sneaked out at night, and went to the astronomy tower. It was quiet there, and no one went there at night. It was only him.

His day was normal. He went to charms after breakfast, and he had other subjects during the morning. Lunch was pretty normal too, some idiots put a spell on the slytherin dishes and out of nowhere they had a Gryffindor print, but nothing too crazy besides that.

"Who do you think it was?" Barty asked after lunch as they walked to defense against the dark arts.

"What is even that question? It clearly was Potter and his lap dog, Sirius Black," Snape said appearing out of nowhere.

"You really hate that bloke don't ya'?" Barty asked. He didn't really like Snape, neither did Regulus. Severus was considered a creep even in Slytherin.

"I dont care about him that much to hate him," Snape said trying to sound cool, but he ended up sounding like a twat.

"Mhm. But you don't stop talking about him, so what's the deal? do you fancy him?" Crouch said, obviously trying to piss him off.

Snape tried to grab his wand, but before he reached his pocket, Regulus grabbed his wrist.

"Is there a problem Snape?" Regulus said with an intimidating look. Yes, Regulus was 5'9 and kind of skinny, but he was still the heir of Black, and he didn't use is social power usually, but sometimes it was necessary.

Snape detached himself from Regulus's grip and walked away.

"Pathetic that one," Barty said with a smirk.

"Mhm"

"Today you have your meeting with Potter, don't ya?"

"Sadly, I do"

"That sucks," Barty said as they entered the classroom.

It was 6:10pm and James was late. Regulus was already there at 5:59pm.

6:13pm. Nothing.

6:15pm. Nothing.

6:20pm. Nothing.

6:23pm. There he was.

"You're late," Regulus said with an annoyed look.

"Sorry mate, couldn't make it in time"

"I'm not your mate," Regulus said.

James grinned,

"Right, sorry," he apologized and then he sat.
