The One Where James Becomes Head Boy Pt.1 ( JEGULUS )

It was the first day back after the holidays, Regulus, if was looked for, which wouldn't be likely, he could be found sitting in the prefect's cabin. He sat, knees to his chest. He was longing to read his book, just reach and grasp it, he stayed still though, impatiently as he waited for the new head boy and head girl to arrive. He knew Lily Evans was obviously going to be head girl, as she is a straight-a students, and was previously a prefect. But the head boy was unknown, Remus is currently sitting 2 seats away from his as prefect for the 2nd year, alongside Valerie Smith, a Gryffindor girl in Regulus's grade.

"-they're coming in now!"

Regulus snapped out of his gaze to see a red- head, Lily Evans, followed by James. James Fleamont Potter was the head boy. Now, accompanying his quidditch captain badge, lay a head boy badge. How could this happen? Regulus swore to always HATE Sirius's friends, as they were the ones who took Sirius away from Regulus, but in the previous years, James had gotten taller, ( still shorter than Remus though ) hair messier, but organised messily, if that makes sense? Regulus had struggled to even hold eye contact with him for more than 5 seconds without blush creeping up, staining his face like very pigmented burgundy face paint. What was he to do now? There was no way he could avoid James now.

"Hello prefects for this year, I am Lily Evans, your head girl." She then gestured to James who was obviously meant to say something but was distracted staring at Regulus, who didn't notice due to him showing more interest in his nails than he should. "James, earth to James." Everybody in the cabin laughed as James quickly turned to face Lily.

"Yeah Lils?"

"Introduce yourself, idiot."

"Sorry!" He turned to face the 5th and 6th years. "Hello, my name is James Potter, Gryffindor quidditch captain, and I'll be your head boy this year."

"Now, let's start on the prefect rounds." She turned to look at a bowl, which after she conjured something with her wand, was full of pieces of paper. "I have everybody's name in here. We will pull two out, and those two are together for prefect rounds for the year." Everyone waited, anticipating their fate. "Remus Lupin." Everybody faced Remus as if he just won an award. "And Lily Evans. That's probably a good thing, can't trust you with James." 

Everyone chuckled.

James and Remus gawked at Lily.

"Lils, I thought we were friends." James said as he lifted his hand to his forehead, acting like a damsel in distress.

"Boo hoo! Next pair, Valerie Smith. Anna Kennedy."

The two girls faced each other with pure joy and excitement. This went on for another while until 3 quarters of them had a pair.

"Next pair. James Potter. And our victim," she grabbed the paper. Some of his stupid fan girls even crossed their fingers, desperate much. "Regulus Black." James smiled at a sighing Regulus. Why did he have to be with James of all people?

Everybody dispersed from there to go talk to their respective partner. That meant James coming to talk to Regulus. How could this day possibly get any worse? Not only was James Sirius's best friend, but he was extremely annoying.

"Hello Reg!"

"Don't call me that."

"Fine, Reggie?"

"Nope."

"Reginald?"

"Hell no."

"Reg the 3rd?"

"Nerd."

"Baby black?"

"Ew."

"Pretty boy?"

Absol- pretty boy?"

"Yeah, do you like it?"

Regulus couldn't deny how that made him feel. Pretty boy?

"Yeah... if I was a 12 year old girl, or one of your insane fan girls."

"They're not insane."

"Tell that to the girls death staring me over there." Regulus pointed with his eyes at their general direction. James turned around to indeed see three girls staring at Regulus with daggers, and goggling at James after he turned around.

"Okay fine, they're a little.. obsessed, but insane feels a bit derogating." They both stayed silent for a couple heart beats. "What do you want me to call you then?" James asked, hoping to soark the conversation again.

"Regulus?" Questioned Black.

"Basic. I'll think of a name for you."

"Yippee." Regulus uttered unenthusiastically.

"So rude." James said jokingly under his breath before getting up, and using Regulus's thigh as support to stand. "Bye basic."

"Um- bye Potter." Regulus said hurriedly before quickly grabbing his book and reading it to the sound of people talking around him. Plenty of girls and guys have touched his thigh before, so why did James doing it make him feel so uneasy?

( James POV )

"Hey Pads. Hey Wormtail." James said while entering their cabin.

"Where's Moony?"

"Talking to Lily. Speaking of Moony, how are you two going, you haven't scared him off yet, have you?"

"I- so rude of you. No, but me and Moony are still dating, and every couple fights, right?"

"Mate, I think you and Moony should b-."

"James, come you need to help me with the schedule." Lily said as she opened the door to their cabin as Remus snuck behind her to kiss Sirius on the cheek and sit down next to him, leaning against his shoulder, much to both their joy.

"Sorry Lils! Bye guys!" All the other Marauders said bye as James was pulled out by Lily.

***

The train arrived at Hogwarts as they all clambered out, every Marauder was holding their bag except for Remus, whose bag was being dragged by magic behind him.

"Another year of pranks lads."

"Please tell me you're not covering the slytherins red glitter again." Regulus said as he walked past the group. Sirius's smile turned into a frown very quickly after that, but returned when Remus pecked him on the lips.
