    Summary

    It starts with a dare.

    A stupid, cliche, juvenile dare.

     

    “Okay– I have a dare!”

    “Oh, here he goes…” Remus mutters, pushing another drink into James’ hands.

    “I dare you–” he stops and points a finger at James, who is trying to keep in a laugh. “–James Potter. To ask my darling little brother out on a date!”

     

    They didn’t really expect it to go the way it did.

    Regulus Black, according to Sirius, is a bit of a cold faced loner who doesn’t look at anyone twice to ever consider dating them. He just isn’t that sort of person.

    It was supposed to be funny.

    Well, none of them are laughing anymore.

     

    or — james ends up in a relationship with his best friend’s brother because of a stupid dare and starts to fall for him, regulus has been secretly pining over him for years, sirius desperately wants to connect with his brother but goes about it all the wrong ways and through it all, the heavy weight of guilt, making bad mistakes and baring unhealed wounds consumes them all.

    Summary

    “We are never doing this again.”

    James glances up at Regulus. He’s standing by James’ bedroom door with his keys and phone dangling from his grip. His cheeks are brushed pink, his curls amiss and the jut of his lip has been ruthlessly bruised. He looks perfectly wrecked by the hands of James Potter.

    “Never,” James says back, biting down a smile.

    Regulus stares at him, eyes narrowed and gleaming, before he turns and leaves through James’ bedroom door.

     

    Not even a day later, James has Regulus cornered against his kitchen counter.

     

    or — james and regulus are fuck buddies, regulus tells him about greek mythology, james writes a letter to regulus, and through it all they try their very hardest to pretend they’re not completely in love with each other.

    Summary

    No one, it turns out, really knows one another.

     

    (OR: all it takes is a summer-long holiday in Italy, James Potter's teetering mental stability, a secret relationship, friends with benefits, Marlene’s secret, and enough stupidity and insecurity to go around for everything to come crashing down around them.)

    Summary

    “Is that what your friends think of me?” James sneers. “That I’m the tall guy that used to fuck you?”

    “Well.” Regulus shrugs, licks the spoon clean and examines his reflection on its shiny surface. “Yes, and no. Also, I think we used to fuck each other. Don't you think? It was a mutual kind of fucking. Equally involved.”

    Or, Normal People but Jegulus.
