Icarus || Jegulus

XVI

Regulus' POV

What was he doing, what was he thinking. His parents leave him unattended once this entire break and he's writing a letter to James Fucking Potter.

Nothing urgent, Regulus' doesn't think he could ever owl James about somthing important.

This is important

Regulus scolds his brain, does he really believe that? It's a stupid letter really, begging for attention.

It's lonely in this house, the screaming portraits don't make very good company.

So he wrote a letter, an idiotic letter. If anyone saw it he would be screwed, but he heard the silence of his house. Kreacher and his parents both out, so he had sent him.

"Fuck, what am I doing"

James

I'm kind of an idiot for sending this too you, but I'm bored I guess.

It's too silent here, I miss Hogwarts. It's almost annoying how lively it is there.

I miss ///// the classes and stuff

Don't stress yourself over responding, if your busy it's alright.

///// from

Regulus

James smiled at the letter as Sirius stared at him with a confused stare.

He should say something to Sirius, tell him it's his pen pal or somthing.

But all he could focus on was the scratched out words, Regulus didn't make spelling mistakes. So the scratches were words he regretted writing.

I miss ////

I miss

I miss you

James' eyes widened slightly. His finger gliding over the scratched out word.

You

He placed the letter upside down on his desk, away from the prying eyes of Sirius. And grabbed out parchment and a quill.

Regulus

Never too busy to respond to you. I just built the most wicked blanket fort ever.

We built it with like all the blankets in the house and no magic so you better be proud of me.

Sirius is eyeing me write this D: hes freaking me out.

Write back when you can

James

Ps. I miss you too

Regulus let out a sigh at the last sentence.

If only James knew how much he meant to him
