James potter, bet the name rings a bell. He was often described as the sun, the one who was always happy, the kind one, the advice giver, the smiley one, the perfect one. But what people don't realise is James is never really happy. With all the fake smiles, the panic attacks, adhd, excessive training, excessive studying, putting others before himself, the strive for perfection, the drain of his mental health, the crying when angry, random emotional outbursts, the tugging at his hair, the strict routines. Yet nobody ever saw this apart from one person. Regulus.
Regulus black, bet that name rings a bell too. He was a star. Named after a star in the Leo constellation. He was described as evil, the heir to the noble house of black, a death eater, the perfect heir. But what people don't realise is, Regulus is nothing like his family. He was just a broken boy in a broken home. What with all the breakdowns, the autism meltdowns, the shaking legs and hands, the crying late at night, his ED, less then perfection isn't an option, the makeup hiding punishments, the digging his nails into his palms, the anxiety. Yet nobody saw this apart from one person. James.
But what happens when these two boys keep meeting at the astronomy tower in the dead of night? What happens when the unexpected happens. Changing them. What happens when both boys start to become attracted towards each other.
Impossibilities start to become more possible...

𝓐quarius irma black knew that all too well. she was everything her parents wanted her to be: poised, intelligent, and fiercely loyal to the family name. she fought to protect her brothers, from the crushing weight of their family, even if it meant sacrificing pieces of herself. her life was carefully controlled, her emotions tucked neatly behind a cool, collected exterior.
then came james fleamont potter, with his reckless charm and gryffindor ideals, turning her carefully guarded world upside down. he wasn't supposed to make her laugh. he wasn't supposed to see past the mask. and he certainly wasn't supposed to make her feel like she could be something other than a black.
as tensions rise between the houses, within her family, and inside her own heart, aquarius finds herself pulled in every direction-toward her brothers, her friends, and the one boy who seems determined to unravel her.
after all, it was never easy loving a black.
