james potter was new. sure, he'd known of his magical abilities for quite some time, but his parents forbid him from going to hogwarts. potter had been homeschooled for awhile until professor dumbledore grew annoyed at the false teachings they were giving their son. albus sent hagrid to james' house and took the young wizard to hogwarts that same night. the professor later wrote a letter explaining that james would be staying at the school for a while, and if they disagreed, they could take it up with the ministry of magic.

the hat sorted james into gryffindor. sirius, remus, and peter became friends with james almost immediately. the four of them were inseparable from day one. mcgonagall knew she was going to have her hands full with them, but she was happy the potter boy had gotten away from the people he sadly had to call his parents. 

one morning in transfiguration, regulus black sat down next to james potter. he was enamored with the the potter boy, seeing his beautiful brown eyes and his big dumb glasses. james never wanted to take his eyes away from the gorgeous blue orbs in front of him and the unruly head of black curls. minerva caught on to what was happening. she was happy that james had found someone outside his usual group, but nervous that the person had been a slytherin. 

"i'm james." potter held out his hand.

"i'm regulus." black shook his hand, trying to push away the sparks he felt once their hands connected.

they continued to talk for the remainder of class. regulus told james that he was sirius' younger brother, he'd been of slytherin house, and defense against the dark arts is his favorite class. james informed regulus that he didn't have any siblings, he'd been of gryffindor house, and he dreamed of the day he could play quidditch. regulus played quidditch and offered to help james get a try out. potter smiled so big and hugged the curly haired one. 

"why is he hugging my brother?" sirius whispered to remus.

"maybe they're friends? don't overthink this, mate." remus replied, rolling his eyes.

"reggie never talks to people, moony." he reasoned.

james and regulus overheard remus and sirius. potter smiled and held reggie's hand in his, seeing black smile out of the corner of his eye. regulus didn't know how to react. once the class had been dismissed, sirius made his way over to his brother and best friend. james pulled regulus out of the classroom and ran down the corridor, holding his hand.

"where are we going?" regulus asked.

"no idea!" james giggled.

they reached a broom closet and hid in there for awhile. regulus tried not to laugh whilst catching his breath. james cupped the boy's face and looked into his blue eyes. black didn't know what to say or do, so he connected their lips in a passionate kiss. james kissed back almost instantly. potter deepened the kiss but was interrupted when someone started banging on the door. it was sirius, looking for his brother.

"i know you're in there. i saw you both run in there." sirius sighed.

"oh shut up, padfoot, we were just messing around." james rolled his eyes as the boys fixed themselves up.

"prongs? are you really in a bloody broom closet with regulus black?" peter's voice could be heard.

james and regulus emerged from the closet a few seconds later. sirius looked angry, but peter and remus looked as if they were about to burst about in laughter. regulus kissed james in front of his older brother before walking back towards his dorm. james blushed. remus and peter were whistling behind them. sirius slapped potter across the face before also walking away to find his brother. 

"idiot." remus rolled his eyes.

"what? am i not allowed to like someone?" james asked.

"not when that someone is the younger brother of your best friend." lupin sighed.

"should i go talk to him?" potter scratched the back of his neck.

"YES!" peter and remus shouted at the same time.

james ran after sirius. he caught up with him after a few seconds. sirius didn't want to talk to potter, but that didn't matter to the raven haired one. black and his younger brother were heading into the slytherin common room when james grabbed regulus' wrist and pulled him close. sirius huffed in annoyance. 

"let go of my brother, you bellend." sirius sighed.

"no. i think i'll take him back to my dorm. you're my best friend sirius, and you know i'd never do anything to hurt your brother. we're not even dating yet, we literally just met. he kissed me and i kissed him because we felt a spark." james explained.

"i still don't like it. what if he hurts you?" sirius was more concerned for his friend.

"then i'll have you to complain to and eat ice cream with." potter chuckled as the boys headed off.

sirius rolled his eyes. regulus wouldn't hurt james, would he?
