Was i insane?

𝑆𝐼𝑅𝐼𝑈𝑆-

Was it stupid of me to wonder about the nature of Juliet's relationship with my brother?

I had no reason not to trust her but it just seemed odd.

Since before the holidays a sort of tension seemed to be manifesting, and I was no doubt sure that they had talked.

Even if it were just once and awhile, especially if they'd been alone briefly over Christmas.
There was something deeper there, I couldn't quite understand it.

But that hadn't changed the fact that Juliet Crescent was into me.

We weren't dating, maybe it was because I was scared and relatively non committal or it was the fact that Juliet would inevitably be leaving in around 4 months. we hadn't even talked about it, I was having enough fun to last a life time and I'm not talking about in the bedroom.

Even though, that too could rival a thousand firework shows at once.

Sometimes Juliet would sneak off and not be seen all day, but she'd always return welcoming me as if I was everything she'd ever wanted. It was odd to me to feel such a way, I'd never loved.

And honestly, I had never thought that I loved Juliet.

It was hard for me to comprehend such a concept. And I was scared to try.

But I did know, that emptiness I'd always felt in my heart seemed to be closing up. It had been since the beginning of the year, just by looking into her eyes or making her smile.

Everything was perfect, Sirius was perfect, our friend group was perfect, life was perfect.

But I could tell that tension rose in the air more and more frequently.

And it was usually caused by the suspicion that came around when I left to meet Regulus in the potions room.

And yes, I'm aware of how wrong that could sound if I said it out loud but It had been two weeks since Regulus had reluctantly accepted my help.

I hadn't told anyone about it, except Remus who told me it was a stupid idea, and that Regulus Black was a hopeless case. He no doubt got that information from Sirius. But reluctantly, he said that he would cover for me if anyone asked him about my disappearances

I was helping Regulus Black be strategic with his actions, Merlin knows he didn't know how to do it in his own. No, I was not "going to the dark side" or whatever Remus liked to say sometimes.

I was helping Regulus get through a bad situation that he'd gotten himself into, and now had to live with.

I hoped in the long run, it might bring Sirius and him closer.
My sister and I, have never been close, at all, actually I'm pretty sure she hates me, even so, I don't think my intentions have anything to do with my past, I simply think that Regulus and Sirius are too alike and too in need of family to give up on each other.

I wanted Sirius to be able to get along with his brother, and his brother to be able to get along with him.

Besides, I was actually beginning to understand Regulus more.

I suppose I would make a good villian, Regulus had told me as much, but the more I hung out with Regulus, the more I seemed to think that some of these people weren't Villains.
