James woke up with a huge headache. He groaned and sat up from his laying position. He slowly opened his eyes and saw their bedroom. He turned to look to his left, the place where Regulus always slept. Regulus wasn't there. Maybe he was downstairs. James felt somehting raising from his stomach and ran to the bathroom.

He threw up into the toilet and then washed his hands and mouth. He brushed his teeth. He looked at himself from the mirror. He had on his pyjama and glasses. His hair was a mess and he was sweaty. He decided to take a shower.

After the shower he put a towel around his waist. He walked back to their bedroom to change into some clean clothes. He put on jeans and a hoodie. He noticed how empty their closet looked, like half of the clothes were missing. James just thought it had always been so empty and that he rememberd wrong when he thought there used to be more.

He went downstairs to the kitchen, hoping to see his boyfriend making breakfast for them. But there was no one in the kitchen. Maybe Regulus was reading in the livingroom. If so, then he shouldn't be talked to and should be let to read in peace. James made a sandwich for himself and sat down on the kitchen counter.

He had missed these weekends when there were only him and his boyfriend, no one else. He wanted to just go and hug Regulus, but he knew how much Regulus loved his peace and own space. The same went to sex. For James, consent was everything and he knew, that sometimes Regulus just wasn't in the mood.

James' headache kicked in right after he had finished his sandwich, so he put the dishes away. He went back to the bathroom and took one painkiller and a glass of water. He swallowed the painkiller with the help of the water. James wondered how his head hurt so much. He had a very few memories from last night.

He rememberd going to the bar with Tom, a friend from his work. Tom was a nice guy, expect he wouldn't stop talking about women. He rememberd when Tom made out with a woman and how they had disappared. And he remembered going home. He wondered what happened after. Probably he went to sleep.

James stepped out of the bathroom. "Reggie, honey! I don't feel so good! I am going to lay down" he shouted and didn't wait for an answer. He went to the bedroom and layed down on the bed, falling back asleep quickly.
