    Summary

    “So,” she starts, breath hoarse around the question she shouldn’t ask, shouldn’t even think. “Is your life ruined?”

     
    Leah turns back to the little window overlooking the parking lot and Bella stares at the back of her head, wondering if Leah will answer or if Bella should stay quiet or if she should leave and never come back.

     
    “I guess it’s not as ruined as I thought it would be.”

     
    Set during New Moon, an AU where Bella wakes up from her coma screaming at Renee, Charlie starts working through a lifetime of distance and discomfort to be there for his daughter, and Bella meets Leah in better circumstances.

    Summary

    James Potter loved Lily Evans from the moment he knew what it truly was to love anybody. But, in the end, it didn’t matter that James had declared that he would never love anyone else but Lily. Because he still lost her.

    One year on from Halloween 1981, James is struggling to raise Harry alone whilst drowning in an impenetrable dark sea of grief, determined to never love again. Because, in his experience, to love, is to lose.

    Luckily, Regulus Black knows quite a lot about loving and losing. And drowning, too, considering the fact that he survived the cave in 1979 and faked his death for two years, popping in to give Sirius the fright of his life on Halloween.

    And, consequently, showing up just in time for the events that followed. The shattered remnants of people that the war left behind.

    Maybe Regulus will be able to show James that it’s okay to extinguish the first love flame, whilst simultaneously giving him the parenting help he is too ashamed to ask for. And, in return, maybe James will manage to convince Regulus that love isn’t something you earn, something that always has a catch.

    Maybe they just needed one another all along, to take that step into the daylight.
