wet hair and seasonal crushes

the sweet taste of confusion

third person pov

It's 11pm at Hogwarts and Alexis is feeling like not going to sleep. James and Lily just came back from their rounds and they are going to sleep. Peter is sleeping since 10pm already, Sirius and Remus are doing stuff? So Alexis is going to have to do this on his own.

Going down the dorm stairs barefoot, 'cause shoes am i right? And the sound is very nice against the stone. It goes like *tfwap tfwap tfwap* And that makes the tinglies go off in Alexis brain, it just feels nice mate don't question it. (yk what i mean)

He's wearing a bit too oversized pyjama pants and a hoodie he may or may not have stolen from Remus because he never wore it anyway. There's also a beanie on his head because those brains need to stay warm. It's bright red because why not, Sirius used to tell him that he looked like a used tampon, then Sirius somehow ended up with a curse that turned his hair red. But Alexis swears it wasn't him *wink wink*

That's when he hears another set of footsteps so Alex runs and hides behind a pillar and wait for the person to walk by. The person takes their sweet time and seems to be walking towards Alexis so Alexis kinda freaks out because he doesn't want to get detention, it would really be a bummer. 

 Regulus heard a person hide so out of pure curiosity and glee of the power he has over that person. He turns a corner and catches a glimpse of a very red beanie.

He's seen that beanie before, and he's not happy about who it belongs to. "Zabini" 

"Oh hi fuckwad" 

Regulus sighs very loudly and rubs his forehead. "You exhaust me"

"Oh I exhaust you, excuse me mister, for exhausting your poorlittle soulless body, huh maybe that's why you listen to your parents, because you have no soul"

"At least i HAVE parents"

Now that is the last straw. Alexis takes Regulus by the collar and shoves him against the wall.

"Try and say that one more time i swear-"

Alexis exhaled right onto Regulus face, and Alexis felt weird, Regulus did too.

Regulus wasn't the kind of person to act on his emotions, but this was weird that's to say the least, weird but not necessarily unpleasant.

Because for Regulus acting on his emotions is him slightly angling his head and bringing it forward to carefully but aggressively at the same time  connect his lips with Alexis'.

Alexis is startled but doesn't pull away, he slowly unclenches his fists from Regulus' collar. 

Regulus hesitantly put his hand on Alexis' neck. Alexis had kissed many people before but this was different but maybe that is because it's Regulus.

Alexis' insides feel warm and-

Regulus broke away, and ran, Alexis could hear his footsteps echoing in the hallway.

Alexis just sat there stunned.

WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED, PANIC MODE PANIC MODE PANIC MODE. WHY DIDNT I PULL AWAY, WHY DID I KINDA LIKE IT, WHY DID HE KISS ME, WHY WAS IT SO NICE. I NEED TO CATCH UP WITH REGULUS, I NEED AN EXPLANATION. 

I was trying to catch up with him but mate went crazy fast, so i just went back to my dorm. 

Entering our room i'm still a bit stricken by the night's event.

"where have you been, you look like you've seen a ghost" i can hear Sirius say from his bed. Oh no not Sirius, not him, not in this situation

"close enough, i need a shower"

"oh ok"

I turn on the faucet of the shower and step into the small little grimy shower/bath and then i can feel me crying.

I think i'm too overwhelmed, that makes me cry, not a lot makes me cry but this for sure does. 

It's so confusing that i liked it, i like boys that was never in question, but what is in question now Is if i like regulus, fuck.

After washing myself, i step out the shower and go back in the room. "hey you sure you're okay mate" 

"yes i am okay Sirius, do you have a fag."

"Oh yeah i do, here" He hands me a cig and draws his curtains and i guess he goes to sleep. 

I go to sit on the window sill and open the window, i light my fag and take a drag. I still have the taste of his lips on mine; warm, it kind of tasted like fire whisky and a freshly lit fag. 

I tastes like him.

Kissing him again wouldn't bother me.

I want to kiss him again

I don't want to be with him, nor do i like him, he just tastes nice. Enemies with benefits, is that something that happens. Without the sexy times though, that would be gross.

a/n : 

hey, i hope you enjoyed, i was going to make it much more slow-burn but i ran out of patience. Also i don't think i will do smut 'cause i'm not that comfortable with it and i dont think i can write it, so if there will ever be sexy times i will probably do a time skip, i'm sorry if that upsets you, but if you dont like it, dont read it, i'm not here to waste< your time.
