Summer ~ Jegulus

Chapter 10

"What. The. HELL?!" Regulus paced across the empty classroom. "JAMES! Stop fucking laughing!" The older was laughing in a chair, his smile wide as ever. "How the fuck am I going to get this out?!"

"Babyy, it's cute.." James cooed still laughing.

"Yeah the ass whooping  you're about to get is gonna be real cute too." Regulus sighed still pacing. James stood up and stopped the younger. "I like green hair on you, it's cute."

"NOT THIS SHADE OF GREEN! I would feel better if it were fucking dark green, or even neon green! Not fucking throw up green! What were you thinking." Regulus let his head fall into James's chest giving up. "Don't look at me right now."

"Hey hey cutie, no matter what hair color you have you're still my adorable Baby Black. With adorable grey eyes that tell thousands of stories, a cute button nose, pale skin, and perfection in every light." James lifted the younger face up to his peppering kisses everywhere. "Want me to turn it back?" Regulus just nodded trying to hide his rising blush. With a quick spell his hair returned black, Regulus sighed in relief inspecting his hair.

"It's just hair though why do you and your brother take so much pride in their hair?" James questioned.

"Because my hair is beautiful, and must stay that way. Plus when my hair looks bad I look like a mole rat."

"Oh my precious mole rat!" James cheered the other laughing with him.

That was the perfect way to start a day of hell.

"I gotta go the match starts soon! I love you, stay safe and I'll see you in the stands!" James kissed the younger, and hugged him tightly.

"I love you so much, stay safe you're gonna do great my love." Regulus replied smiling. James ran out the room, but quickly ran back in. "I- uh would you mind wearing my jacket that has my name on it? Well it says Potter but uh it's a really cold day and I don't want you to get cold so uh you don't have to I'm sorry this is weird-"

Regulus just grinned, "I'd love to." With that James wrapped the jacket around him and kissed him goodbye.

James was right, it was cold and windy. Regulus was freezing in the stands Remus and Peter beside him. The cold didn't stop him from cheering, and no matter what conditions Regulus was the loudest one in the stands. Remus close second. The match started out fair Gryffindor wiping Hufflepuff off their feet scoring multiple points. That was until one of the Hufflepuff beaters hit the bludgers particularly hard not expecting anything, that was until it hit James right in the back of the head knocking him off his broom. He fell nearly 60 feet, but Dumbledore managed to catch him with a spell right before he hit the floor. The boy was being carried to the nurse in a huge rush by all his teammates, Regulus close behind them. Safe to say the match was over, they forfeited and Hufflepuff got an automatic win.

Everyone was rushed out of them room by the nurse except Regulus, he refused to leave. "If you must stay make yourself useful go fetch a cool damp towel from that room."

It went on like that for nearly two weeks, Regulus only left the hospital wing for classes. As soon as class was over he was right there next to James waiting. The nurse pitied him and brought his dinner to the wing every night so he'd eat. "...James.. it's almost been two weeks. I'm trying, I just I need you back right now, please. Schools been rough classes are the only time I sleep. Zaire says you'll wake up any day, I hope he's right. I love you so much." He cried.

The next few days he started visiting less and less he sat in his room and slept through his classes and meals. Not taking part in anything anymore, that was until Zaire ran into the room, "HES AWAKE! Quick go visit!" Regulus didn't know what happened after that before he knew it he was in the hospital wing sobbing into James arms. James looked at him curiously, "what happened? Why are you sad?"
