"But Aleks just cried, and gripped Sly's shirt in between his fingers as hard as he could because his dream was just a warped illusion of his reality; a living nightmare."
Aleks wasn't as great as creating snappy comebacks as Sly, building computers as efficiently as Jordan, and most certainly not as sarcastic as Seamus but Aleks knew he had a six-sense when it came to knowing one of his friends wasn't acting like himself.
And when James suddenly disappears one day without so much as a phone call, Aleks wishes he acted out his instincts sooner.

Of Pinstripes And Potions
When James wakes up, his head his pounding. He can't remember drinking anything, but supposes he must have because it feels like he's been hit square between the eyes with a bludger. He's never been one to get hungover, but he knows this is what it's supposed to feel like. Although, come to think of it, he doesn't remember celebrating their victory on the pitch, isn't completely sure they had one at all. The last thing he remembers is turning to look to the stands, revelling in the roars of his fellow Gryffindors, certain that they were going to beat Hufflepuff. Then, he turned and... was hit square between the eyes with a bludger. Now he's stuck in the hospital wing, and the bed next to his is occupied by none other than Regulus Black.Complete
Behind Closed Hearts
""I don't hurt myself. I don't. I don't." He inhaled sharply. Through his mind flashed images of Nathen at his worst, towering over him with that look in his eyes. James flinched into his arms, gasping. "I wish he would just leave me alone," he said lowly. Suddenly something grasped his arm and James knocked himself backward in surprise. His head shot upward and he was terrified. Aleks was clenching James' arm from where he was lying with a murderous look on his face. It was one James had never seen on Aleks' face. Ever. It stopped James' tears instantly. The cool air brushed his drying tears as the two stared each other. "Who is it, James?" Aleks growled out. "Who?"" Aleks and James' parents died and they were left with nothing but eachother. What's worse is that they are forced to move to a new town and live with separate families. At first, things looked good: they didn't live far from each other, they went to the same school... but then things take a turn for the worst when James doesn't live up to his new parents' expectations.Complete

'I loved him. Shit! I 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘥 him.' ~~~★ Starchaser // Jegulus ★~~~ ♬ sᴏᴍᴇᴛɪᴍᴇs, it's hard to accept love, that willingness to prioritise anothers well-being or happiness above our own even if we do not want to or are not willing to do so. Regulus Black finds it unbearably impossible to accept that enamoured feeling that makes his chest ache and stomach dance especially when it's towards the popular and irritatingly optimistic: ❥ James Potter -> Brother Theif | *--> ᴏʀ...

devotion | regulus black
― "I love you more than life itself," ― Althea Potter had always been a light. Where James burned wild and reckless, she glowed warm and steady, drawing people in with her laughter, her kindness, and her stubborn belief that everyone carried a spark worth loving. She was the sister who brightened shadows, the girl who never let anyone feel unseen. Regulus Black, on the other hand, was born of shadows. Cold where she was warm, distant where she was tender, sharp where she was soft-he was a boy sculpted by duty, drowning beneath the weight of a name that demanded silence, obedience, sacrifice. They were opposites, orbiting each other in disdain. She saw him as cruel and unfeeling, and he saw her as naïve and foolish. Yet the world has a way of binding the unwilling, and war makes strange companions of enemies. Slowly, through whispered arguments and stolen glances, Althea discovered the boy beneath the mask, and Regulus found himself yearning for the light he had spent his life rejecting. But love in times of war is fragile. It does not always save. Sometimes it destroys, quietly, beautifully, tragically. And when the end came-as it always would-they both learned that hatred can turn to love, and love can burn into something fiercer still. Something unshakable. Something eternal. Something that could only be called devotion. ☽｡⋆Complete

helter-skelter | jegulus au
After a year of radio silence, James shows up at his ex boyfriend's door so drunk he can hardly stand and picks up a metaphorical rattlesnake by its metaphorical tail. Some people have to taste poison twice to learn their lesson. -𓆱- James walked like he was walking the line of a tightrope, with his arms out to trace through windless night air. His cigarette was gone. "Where are you going?" He turned to Regulus' voice slowly, as if unsurprised he'd been followed through the hot dark. James shrugged. "You don't know?" Sometimes James felt like picking a direction and walking until his legs gave out, then getting up the next day to keep walking, and never turning around.
Unfortunately-(Jegulus) √

The Scent In Our Clothes
"Do you swear it?" Regulus looks deep into James' eyes, waiting for the faltering, but there is none. "I swear it," he says, gripping Regulus' arm tighter.

James swears that Regulus will be in love with him by the end of the year, and Regulus swears not to push him away and make him try. When they wake up the following day, they remember nothing of it.
