I am not the only traveler Who has not repaid his debt I've been searching for a trail to follow again Take me back to the night we met And then I can tell myself What the hell I'm supposed to do And then I can tell myself Not to ride along with you (...) In which Sirius Black is reunited with his little brother after seven years without hearing from him, and James Potter sees more than his best friend's brother in the face of that young art student. Regulus Black, on the other hand, just wants to graduate without losing his scholarship in the process.

James Potter has gained quite a fame among the Dark Lord's followers for his ruthless demeanor when capturing, interrogating, and imprisoning active Death Eaters. After the Order of the Phoenix discovers that Regulus Black, Voldemort's youngest and one of the less prominent followers, might know a secret that could be useful to end Voldemort and his reign of terror, only James could be entrusted with the task of tracking him down and using all his ingenuity and cold blood to rip out all Black's secrets one by one. That being said, Sirius Black better not find out what happens in his best friend's basement when the silencing spells are casted. • TW// Graphic Depictions Of Violence • CW// Torture, Imprisonment, Isolation, Possessive Behavior, Smut • First War With Voldemort, Post-Hogwarts • Dark James Potter (sort of)

"Regulus' neck twisted unnaturally, a pale shape. Gaping in agony, blood crawling dark and sticky, heels cracked like an eggshell. James thought it was a beautiful sight." Regulus the fervent Ballerina. James the spirited Athlete. (Sirius & Remus, Mary & Marlene relationship on the side.)

There Regulus was. A flawless artwork. Shining as bright as the stars above him. James couldn't move forward, no matter how much he wanted to. He didn't want to ruin the sombre yet peaceful state the young Slytherin was in, looking up at the different constellations James knew nothing about. He had never seen Regulus like this before - utterly relaxed whilst leaning against the ageing tree. It was the second time he had thought the boy simply.. human, and it jarred him. James didn't want to think of the curly-haired boy as anything else than a traitor to his brother. Anything else but a future death-eater. They were destined to be on different sides and thinking of Regulus as anything else almost felt like a betrayal. But it didn't stop him simply standing there, under the shadows of the night. Maybe James could have justified himself looking over to make sure Regulus wasn't doing any weird, death eater type shit. But James would be lying to himself. He simply wanted to watch the silent boy look at the stars.

James and Regulus dated back in fifth through sixth year. They broke up in seventh. What happened after that? Let's see......

Hazel eyes met grey ones and James' knuckles came up to caress the younger blacks cheek, his lips ghosting over Regulus' pink plump ones and there was no shame in his actions. " We can't...we can't ,Potter..." Regulus said in a hushed whisper, his eyes hooded and the air underneath the cloak got stuffy, Regulus felt exposed even though no one could see him- them. " You're not saying no..." James whispered back, his hot breath on the side of regulus' neck and the younger black closed his eyes to gasp and shiver. " No ..I'm not am I?"

Where Regulus Black has lost himself and James Potter has not found himself. Both of them are missing something in their lives. There is only hope that they find it.

I will put a warning for the abuse. -Slow updates! -Many overlooked grammatical errors and spelling mistakes. Feel free to correct me.

If you want love, you have to work for it. If you want love, you have to be flexible. If you want love, you got to snatch it up and take it. Most importantly, if you want love, you have to fucking earn it!-Jegulus (In this story, there's no Voldy, there's dark families and there's the pureblood stuff but no voldy)

During summer break between 5 and 6th year Sirius runs away to his best friend James' house when he decides to bring his little brother Regulus. Regulus is hesitant at first but goes with his brother in the end. ⚠️THIS DOES NOT HAVE SMUT SO IF YOU CAME HERE FOR SMUT YOU CAN LEAVE OR STAY WHATEVER YOUR HEART DESIRES⚠️

Golden boy, Lion boy; Tell me what it's like to conquer. Fearless child, Broken boy; Tell me what it's like to burn. (...) In which a very nosy James Potter notices that every weekend, when everyone falls asleep, Regulus Black sneaks into an abandoned fifth-floor classroom, and he can't help but try to find out what the little Black is up to.
