James and regulus' bodies lay entwined with one another's. James' body wrapped around Regulus', holding the other's to his chest, smiling to himself as he played with his lovers hair.
"Reggie.. Tell me about Icarus again..." he said quietly. Regulus sighed
"Again?.."
"I just like hearing your beautiful voice talk about mythology"
"Icarus and his father had made wings from feathers and and candle wax, Icarus had been warned that he wasn't to fly too close to the sun. In the excitement of being able to fly, Icarus ignored his father's words and continued to fly closer and closer to the sun.. Unfortunately the wax began to melt. By the time he realized, it was too late and Icarus plummeted as his wings burned up in the hot Greek sun." James Held Reggie tighter and though for a few minutes in the silence before deciding on what he was going to say.
"Then I'll be Icarus, I'll fly higher and higher towards a big, beautiful star until it inevitably leads to my downfall, but at least I'll die doing something no man has done before..." Regulus was silent before turning around, changing the spooning position the two of them were in and held James' face.
"That is the most stupid, beautiful, idiotic yet romantic thing I think I've ever heard you say.." he said, kissing the raven haired man deeply.
James pulled back and smiled like an idiot, but he was Regulus's idiot.
"You'll be my favourite star forever Reg.. I'll observe you like the pretty constellation you are..."
"A constellation is a group of stars forming an image, but the sentiment was there.." Regulus said with a laugh, his cheeks heating up.
"Can't I be sappy without you being a cute little nerd for 5 minutes, Reg?" The younger man just shook his head and smiled.
"I won't allow your inaccuracies slide all the time, it's not who I am, and you know this, James." James nodded.
"I know, I know, I just wanted an excuse to call you a cute nerd, I'm sorry my love" he said, leaning down and kissing the dark haired man's nose.
"But you're not really, are you?" James shook his head and smiled. "I can't help but love you.."
