Summary
James Potter gets funny when Regulus Black is around him.
They’ve been playing together for two years, ever since Sirius and his brother reunited, since they discovered that Regulus Black could play the keyboard, and the piano. Like, strikingly well. The Marauders are punk rock, but James and Remus have been writing slower songs so Regulus Black is perfect.
Two years is more than enough time for Regulus to blend into the band… and blur lines that were never clearly defined to begin with. James insists it’s nothing, even as his longtime girlfriend, Lily, starts to notice how close they are.
“We’re just friends, Lily,” James murmurs over the phone, “Just like everyone else.”
Lily scoffs, “We both know that Sirius doesn’t look at you like that.”
And she’s right. Whatever this is between James and Regulus, it’s becoming impossible to ignore, and impossible to keep.
So James just can't have Regulus around him anymore...
