James Fleamont Potter gave up on Lily Evans. It was obvious to figure out why. The one and only reason being Regulus Arcturus Black and that unforgettable night. It was much better than when he and Lily accidentally kissed when she was falling down the stairs and her lips collided with his. Of course he was so irresistible that Lily just had to keep kissing him when they were on the ground. No spark. No fireworks. But with Regulus on the other hand. Here's what happened.
Halloween night. Of course the Slytherin common room was the perfect place to have a Halloween party. Everyone who was 3rd year and up were invited and that included tons of Slytherins, a lot of Gryffindors, a few wild Ravenclaws, and a couple of Hufflepuffs. No rivalries were brought to parties. So no fighting and no pranks, unless it was a Christmas mistletoe. But that was for another time.
James and Sirius were at the party since Peter had detention and Remus had prefect duties. He'd be dragged to the party by a drunk Sirius later anyways. It all started with a few drinks, and a few drinks everyone took. Soon enough, everyone was either high or drunk.
"WHO HAS GOOD MUGGLE GAMES TO PLAY?" none other than a drunk ass Sirius screamed on top of a table by the fireplace. How he got there, James did not know. James only had two shots of Firewhiskey whilst Sirius, well, let's just say he was currently holding the bottle. It was half way full. Or half way empty whatever.
"Truth or Dare!" a Ravenclaw called back to the boy before he leaned down and smiled at them. "I'm sorry, but that's boring after the ten THOUSANDDDDD times we have played it! NEXT!!!" Sirius shook his head, giggling as the Ravenclaw backed away from him slightly. The poor third year was debating whether or not they should reach out in an attempt to catch him and back up and get away.
"Seven Minutes In Heaven?" a Hufflepuff suggested, who was probably a fourth year. Janet was their name...maybe. "OOH yes!!...What is this Seven Minutes in Heaven?" he hums, in which the purebloods all talk at once, all asking what the hell the game was.
"Well basically we spin a bottle and put whoever the two people are in a closet for seven minutes. They can do anything and everything basically." Janet explains, huffing out a puff of smoke. "ALRIGHTY!! ANYBODY HAVE AN EMPTY BOTTLE?" Sirius yells before someone takes the bottle in his hand and puts the last of it into shot glasses before handing it back.
"Hmm convinent....PARTICIPANTS SIT IN A FUCKING CIRCLE!!" he says before jumping off the table whilst some people around made room for people to sit as others danced, drinked, or made out in the corner. As Sirius walked to the circle, he saw his little brother and thought 'what the hell?' before grabbing his arm and dragging him to the circle. While the circle formed, everyone sat before Sirius sets the bottle down. "Uhhhhh Longbottom, you first!" Frank raises an eyebrow at hearing his name being called before reaching over and spinning the bottle anyways.
James did not pay attention to the game. Not until Sirius took off his tie and whacked him with it. "Aye Prongs! Spin the fucking bottle" he whines and James leant forward and spun the damn bottle. Only for it to land on Regulus. "Oh hot damn okay, you two, go!!" Sirius cheers in which the both of them get pushed into someone's dorm. Turns out the Slytherins were put in their dorms since this was Regulus' dorm.
Surprisingly, a very high Regulus pressed his lips against James' first. The Gryffindor had no hesitation to kiss him back, pulling him close by his hips. The Slytherin wrapped his arms around the other boy's neck and made sure the kiss was deep. James was definitely feeling something. They kissed. On and off for the rest of the seven minutes. Kiss after kiss, James loved every single one of them. Not to mention how Regulus shuddered every time he thought about it.
So now, with Regulus living AND sleeping in the same room as James, well, things were bound to happen. And holy shit was James just starting to realize that.
He did not realize about this small complication when he first got the letter from Sirius. Not when he told Sirius that it was fine if Regulus came. Not when he was sitting in the living room, waiting for a knock on the door. Not when he opened that door for the both of them to come in. Not when he showed Regulus his bed. Not when they ate dinner.
But now, when his head was on his pillow and his eyes were looking up at his dark ceiling. He tried not to pay attention to the soft breathing of the boy who kissed his way into his heart. He tried not to think about how they were so close together. He tried not to think about how he stole his jumper off the floor. The git was too tired to grab a jumper in his bag!!! Did he forget he wasn't home?
To be honest, James could not sleep that night. Which was a blessing in disguise for Regulus. Because in the middle of the night, he'd have a nightmare. A nightmare so bad that he would worry James.
