"He's one of them."

Regulus was returning from the Quidditch field with a group of younger students following him asking him to teach them his techniques at Quidditch. They were yelling and in their eyes someone could see the awe for the younger Black. The boy didn't care about their excitement. Another game was lost because of the incapability of the Chasers and the immaculate skill of Electra and James. No matter if he had managed to catch the Snitch, which appeared really late they had lost to Gryffindor for 20 points.

What troubled him though it wasn't the final outcome. It was that he had the first interaction with his brother after months of silence. Months of trying to be as far as he could. He knew what he should be expecting when he was was entering the Quidditch field. He was there during his trial for Beater's position. Sirius didn't know that. What upset him was the look on Sirius' face when he saw him. Even though he was surrounded by a group of girls as soon as he appeared he lifted his head with his long hair waving and stared at him. It wasn't disappointment what the boy had seen on his brother's face. It was a feeling of sorrow like he was missing him, like he was sorry for leaving him behind. He had pushed the girls carefully out of his way trying to walk up to him but he had turned and left already when Sirius actually managed to get away from all these girls surrounding him.

Regulus shook his head trying to clear his mind. In the threshold of Slytherin's common room a boy with blonde hair smirked at him. "Do you need to find better Chasers?" He asked wrapping his arm around his friend's shoulders.

"You know your sister. She's breathing from Quidditch." Regulus replied and messed the boy's hair with his fingers.

Sirius was in the Gryffindor's common room and specifically pinned up against the wall from a girl who was hopelessly wanting to make out with him. Of course he could not hesitate or let the chance go to waste but his mind was elsewhere. As the girl was kissing his neck his thoughts take control over him.

Regulus didn't even want to talk to him. It was the first day after months he was so close and he couldn't even ran towards his side leaving all the girls behind and tell him that he had missed him. Explain to him everything that had happened during the summer. Tell him that if he could turn back time he would, he would take him with him. Tell him how their mother was treating him ever since he had returned to their house.

The girl searched for his lips and lowered his head closing the gap with the thoughts spinning inside his mind. After a while he pulled back. "Come on Black!"

"Not right now... Stop." He said placing his hands on the girl's shoulders and taking her by surprise when he pushed her lightly back trying to get away from her.

He passed quickly through the table where the bottles of firewhiskey were and grabbed one of them as he was exiting the common room. No one noticed him exiting. Electra and James had gone to their dormitories to change up from Quidditch clothes. Remus was along with Mary in the other side of the common room and Peter was in a stroll around the castle along with Charlotte.

Regulus walked up to the Slytherin's common room as soon as it opened. He was the only one on the common room, lost in his thoughts, waiting for Orpheus to return from the kitchens where he had gone to bring chocolates and sweets. "How did you find the password?"

Sirius looked around the room and walked in without asking for permission. "Well you're kinda predictable... It would be something about blood supremacy etc." He smirked and turned around on his heel looking at his brother.
