Regulus Black is used to pretending. Pretending he doesn’t care, pretending he doesn’t feel anything when James Potter looks at him like that. James, meanwhile, is trying (and failing) to ignore the way Regulus and Barty Crouch Jr. seem so close.Between stolen glances, jealousy-fueled pranks, and a Hogsmeade weekend gone wrong, tensions rise.
