Two weeks, and three days. That's the last time James talked to Regulus. That's the last time he felt his breath against his skin, he last smelled his cologne.

And he missed it so much. He missed his sweet lips, his eyes, which always shone up after he laughed.

Each time their glances enwit in the Great Hall, he felt a longing turn in his stomach, which made him miserable.

But atleast Sirius forgave. Atleast they continued doing pranks, they talked.

They planned together and they acted like nothing ever happened. They planned a party together, which took place at Halloween, inviting each house.

And then the night came, everyone went up to the Gryffindor dormitory after dinner, music screaming, as the lot danced. Girls circled around James and Sirius, and Sirius enjoyed the attention, but not James. He only wanted the attention of one, who sat in the other side of the room, talking to his friend, looking tipsy, which was most probably caused by fire whiskey.

James felt a soft touch of his bicep, which made him look that way.

'Hi James!' A brown haired girl said.

'Can I erm... help you?' James said with a kind smile.

'No, I just wanted to talk.'

'You are from hufflepuff right?' James felt the girls deep-brown eyed staring into his soul.

'Yes, I am.'

'That's, cool?' James said.

'I'm glad you think that.'

James saw a movement from the side of his eyes.  He saw Regulus standing up, kinda losing his balance, but then straightening up, walking out of the Common Room.

James looked back at the girl.

'Look, I have to go now, bye.' He turned and went out, to follow the slytherin, right until his dorm. Before he went in, he heard quiet sobbing out of it.

'Reggie?' He stepped in. The boy looked up with reddened eyes, tears streaming down his face.

'Please leave.' Regulus sobbed 'I don't want you to be here.'

'Reggie... please.' James sat next to him with a sad smile. 'Please forgive me. What I did was-'

'Horrible? Disgusting? Both?' Regulus raised his voice. 'You made me believe that you loved me. You made me believe that someone on this fvcking earth cares about me.'

'I do. I do love you and I do care about you.'

'Then why did you... ignore me?'

'Sirius. He knew and, I-' Both of the boy turned at the chatter they heared. 'Can we talk tomorrow?'

'If you leave now, do not ever think about coming back.' Regulus looked at him, with his eyes piercing.

'But-'

Regulus patted the bed next to him, and when James realized what he meant he took his shoes down and sat next to him.

'Colloportus.' Regulus raised his wand at the curtain, which closed it.

'I really am sorry Reggie, I didn't wanted to-.'

'Please, don't talk now. I have been waiting for this for weeks.' Regulus put his head on James's chest. 'You know I missed you so.'

'I missed you too.' James looked at him. 'Can I kiss you?'

'You can.' They lips met, and due to the starvation the kiss was needy, yet soft.

'You know I do love you, right?' James asked with a drowsy voice.

'I... I don't know.'

'I do.' James kissed him 'And I won't ever leave you. Not for Sirius. Not for anyone. I missed you so much.'

'I missed you so so much too.' Regulus kissed the tears off James's face 'And I love you too.'

'Everything I said on the tower was true.' James stroked his fingers trough the other's thick black hair.

'I hoped so. I mean I know I am perfect, but having confirmation is always good.' James laughed at this, and Regulus loved it when he laughed. ''A music to his ears.''

After a few minutes of talking, James hugged Regulus, and they both drifted off to sleep.
