Sirius Drove Motorcycles And James Drove Sports Cars

traitor - January 8th - jegulus, platonic prongsfoot - @black-brothers-microfic - word count: 382

As soon as James walked into his flat, he got the odd sense he should leave. The very air was thick with anger, and he knew it could only mean one thing. Turning to tiptoe quietly back out the door, he managed to make it all the way to the entrance before-

"James!"

Fuck.

"Will you tell your fiancé what a traitor he is?" Sirius screeched, standing in the door of the kitchen with his arms crossed and looking furious.

Before James could ask why, another, equally scary voice replied from within the room.

"James, will you tell your best friend he's an idiot?" Regulus called, voice full of both annoyance and amusement.

James considered calling Remus for help, but he knew it was too late. "What happened?" he asked wearily, shucking his jacket and walking into the warzone.

"Regulus told me I can't be his Best Man!" Sirius shrieked, throwing his hands in the air. "The audacity! I'm his only sibling and-"

"Because you're James's Best Man, you dumbarse!" Regulus interrupted, giving James a look that demanded he speak. "You can't be Best Man for both!"

"Why not? I damn well should be! I'm the most important person in both of your lives!" Sirius yelled, eyes wild.

James sighed, finally stepping in. "Regulus, did you tell Sirius what he would be doing instead of being your Best Man?" he asked the younger man gently, trying not to cause any more blow ups.

"No," Regulus grumbled. "He wouldn't let me." But he turned to Sirius and took a deep breath, as if trying to calm himself. "You're going to walk me down the aisle, Sirius. Give me away, and all that."

Immediately, Sirius's demeanor changed. His crossed arms fell to his sides and his furrowed eyebrows lifted as his eyes filled with tears. "Wh-what?" he asked, voice trembling.

"Oh, fuck, he's going to cr-" Regulus said fearfully, looking aghast and turning to get away from is brother.

But it was too late. Sirius pulled Regulus into a bear hug, sobbing hysterically. "I- l- lo- love y- you s- so m- mu-" he stuttered, tears streaming down his face and onto Regulus's expensive jumper.

"James, help!" Regulus hissed, looking like a trapped animal.

"Nah, love, that's all you," James grinned, turning to leave.

my favorite version of "sirius finding out about jegulus" is when sirius is worried james (who he views as the straightest person on earth) sees regulus as a girl only to find out that james affirms regulus's identity more than anyone. especially if it involves james and sirius rescuing regulus from grimmauld, and especially especially if this rescue involves sirius and james seeing regulus in a ballgown. what can i say, i have very specific tastes

regulus discussing with james about coming out as trans to sirius

sirius overhearing "what if he freaks out james?" "he won't love, he'll be supportive" "this will change everything" "stop worrying, he's your brother, he'll understand" and thinking regulus is pregnant.

also him noticing regulus wearing looser clothes and freaking the fuck out because he is not ready to be an uncle!!!

no i dont like ‘harry potter’ i like a secret second gayer thing that exists in my head

Remus will be like “This is Sirius, He’s my girlfriend” and Sirius would swoon

James Potter's loyalty to his friends as seem by Snape:

“Like father, like son, Potter! I have just saved your neck; you should be thanking me on bended knee! You would have been well served if he’d killed you! You’d have died like your father, too arrogant to believe you might be mistaken in Black — now get out of the way, or I will make you"

James Potter's loyalty to his friends as seem by Lupin:

"No, I think you're like James," said Lupin, "who would have regarded it as the height of dishonor to mistrust his friends."

James and regulus would fight over who's sweater lily should wear, a her just wearing one of Remus' to piss them

regulus: UGHHHH your hair is such a mess, potter, it looks like 20 birds chose to make their nests there

james: i can cut it

regulus:...

regulus: over my dead and rotten body.

💫 Regret 💫

Remus had been angry at Sirius for far to long now. There was always something that got in the middle when he wanted to forgive him.

First it was the thought that it had not been long enough and he deserved to drown in his own guilt. Because Remus could've killed Snape. Not just Snape, but James too. And that was too much to just forget. So he spent a week without speaking to him.

Then was the realization that Sirius might betray him like that again. And he couldn't accept that. So, another week without talking.

After two weeks of hating Sirius he considered it. He really did. But then he saw him laugh with James, like nothing had happened, and decided to hate him for yet another week (without noticing that Sirius hated himself for feeling happy, when thought he should be feeling awful all the time)

And then, after three weeks, here he was. In his bed after everyone had gone to sleep, thinking. Thinking how the love of his life has just a few steps away and regretting every single minute he was not with him.

The realization that Sirius never ment to hurt him, that it was a mistake, and that he spent the last three weeks hating him struck Remus so suddenly, that he lost his breath.

He got up and walked straight to the bed next to his and stopped. He knew Sirius was awake. He had hear him sob a bit, like he usually did before to sleep these days.

He opened the red curtains and whispered "Sirius?"

When the other boy saw him he answered with the only thing that he had said to Remus since the prank "I'm sorry".

The guilt in his grey eyes broke moony's heart. He got in, and hugged him, and kissed him.

They spent a long time whispering "I'm sorry"s and "it's okay" "I love you" until they fell asleep, arms wrapped around each other.

And just like that, they were okay again. What had happened in the last few weeks would always be a hard topic, but it was nothing compared to how much they loved the other. So, so much.
