Girls night and stargazing
The first night back everyone was exaused from there long day and fantastic feast. "Ahh home at last." Sirius sighed falling into his soft Red bed.
James smiled at this. "Yeah its good to be back."
Remus who was almost asleep grosned and threw a pillow at his head. "Ngkkkk go to sleep or go to the commen room."
James laughed at this witch was rewarded with another pillow thrown at him.

Eventully everyone fell back into there ussual rutines, Wake up, have brkefest,bother snivilius,classes,lunch,bother snivilis,classes,quidich practice,dinner,quidich practice,and of course bother snivilius.
So you could say by Thursday everyone was exhausted when it was time for James to sneak out to see reg Peter was already asleep. and of course remus was enjoying his quiet time curled up in one of the plush velvet chairs with a good book. so there were no questions asked when james slipped out of the common room around 9:45.
He made his way down to the portrait of the fruit bowl by the kitchen where he waited for reg, his heart fluttering with nervousness in a way Lily Evans never did.
He looked around the corner ever few minutes but there was so sign of the beautiful black haired boy. Suddenly James jumped when the portrait behind him opened. “Sorry for being late potter, I got distracted by the elf’s.” Reg apologized.
James smiled. “Haha its alright I just thought I was going to get caught sneaking out late.” Regulus carefully reached for James hand barely letting there fingers touch. James looked down and blushed quickly hold on tight to Reggies hand. “Come on Reg didn’t you say there was a meteor shower.”

Meanwhile in Lily Evans dorm room there was a group of girls (and sirius) giggling and gossiping while applying face masks. “Mkinin you said you were talking about me on the train what the hell was that about?!” He asked taking the cucumbers off his eyes.
Marlene smirked and glanced over to dorcus. “Oh nothing.” Dorcus said in her deep beautiful voice. “Nothing much just about your little boyfriend.” Marlene said teasingly. Sirius’s face flushed turning as red as the curtains. “Moony is not my boyfriend!” He exclaimed embarrassed.
Alice rolled her eyes. “And yet again you knew exactly who we were talking about come on sirius we all know you fancy him.” “Besides sirius im sure he fancies you whenever we have our study sessions and you walk in he gets all flustered and gets a dreamy look on his face.” Lily kindly added. “God damn it.” Sirius mumbled “besides what would you all know about fancying a guy im in a room with all lesbians!” Sirius exclaimed.
Everyone burst put laughed. He wasn’t entirely wrong either Marlene and Dorcus were crazy for each other, Alice was having a secret relationship with some slythirin but would not tell them who and Mary and Lily were constantly flirting and getting flustered by one another. “Hey Im not a Lesbian!” Lily said holding back laughter. Mary rolled her eyes. “Neither am I but come on Evans you have had the most desirable boy in the school chasing after you but never did anything.” Mary giggled.
Lily rolled her eyes. “Well in the past James has been a insufferable little git but hes changing this year he seemed more mature and kind.” She said dreamily. All the laugher stoped. “Am I hearing this right?!? Lily Jade Evans is falling for James potter.” Marlene gawked lifting her head from Dorcases Lap.
Lily blushed. “I du’no” he whispered. Sirius grinned. “Wow Evans I love James and all but I never thought that he would ever stop being a twat enough for you to fancy him.” The laughter started again.
“Well girls, and honorary girls.” Alice looked at sirius. “I would love to stay but have a date tonight with a certain Slythirin girl, got to run bye!” Alice smiled fixing her brown bob and standing up. “Still wont tell us who?” Mary pleaded. Alice smirked. “Nope, cant.” And with that she dashed out the door.

“So when will we see the stars?” James asked. “Well besides the one I already see?” He ginned tilting his head to look at Regulus. They were laying on the grass right by the Lake the air was a bit cold but thats why they had hot Chocolate, everything was still the forest,the lake,the castle everything was at peace.
Regulus blushed. “James your the most cheesiest person Iv ever met, and the show will start in about 3 minutes.” James smiled at this. “You know you like my cheesiness.” He teasted . “Yeah yeah I do.” Reg rolled his eyes.
James laid his head against Regs chest, reaching up to play with Regs hair he said. “Im really glad we can do this.” Reg blushed again. “Do what exactly?” He chuckled. “I du’no just be here me and yo, your really cool and im just happy your letting me be with you.”
Regulus tentatively touched James’s hand pulling it away from his hair. “God potter why do you do this to me.” He sighed a smile on his face. “Do what?” James asked teasingly. “Im risking everything for this for you and I dont care im loving it and getting flustered at shit im acting like-“ james cut him off not wanting Regulus to regret going out with him. “Your acting like a normal person.” He guided Regulus’s hand to his mouth kissing his knuckles gently.
Regulus took a breath grounding himself here with James. “Right a normal person.”
James smiled. “See good, Reg around me you can be a normal person not your parents emotionless little robot but a person got it?” Regulus shifted nervously. “Your safe Reg.”
“Yeah a real person.” Reg smiled sitting up gently kissing James on the forehead. “Hey look the meteor shower is starting.” James pointed out gazing at the twirling sky above that was alive with darling stars dancing across the midnight glow.
Regulus got a wild glow im his eyes like a little kid, he loved the stars everything about them the way them moved and were created, and the mystery of them too everything about stars was so beautiful and the way Regulus would talk about stars made him practically glow.
“Tell me about it, what makes meteor showers happen?” James asked seeing the wonder-ess look on Regs face. Regulus grinned. “Well a meteor shower is when when little bits of comets or asteroids burn up as they enter earths atmosphere, when they burn up they paint streaks across the sky like we see right now!” He explained becoming more and more alive with each word.
He continued waffling about them. “Most the time the bits of debris are only the size of a grain of sand witch is insane considering how much it effects the sky.”
James loved hearing Reg do this talking so passionately about the stars it was clear how much he loved them. Every few moments Regulus would pause to take a breath and to see if James wanted to here more and of course James would always reply with. ‘What else about them’ or ‘oh wow tell me more.’ He would be fine if Reg kept talking for the rest of eternity.
Around one or so after the majority of the show stoped it was time to go back in. (Even if neither really wanted to.)
They lingered in the corridor for a moment by the entrance to the dungeon. “I had a amazing time tonight.” Reg blushed as they stood hand in hand. James smiled at Reg who was avoiding his gaze. “Same I think it might be the best night of my life so far.”
Regulus blushed even darker. “Come on James you don’t have to say that but yeah this was really nice.” James rolled his eyes. “When are you going to start believing the things I say.”
Rugulus let out a laugh. “When they start making sense.” James just smiled at Regulus. “Oh yeah you have the pink not with you right?” He asked.
James pulled the folded note out of his pocket. “Yeah I was wondering what you wanted me to bring it for?” He asked. Regulus pulled out a matching one. “Here watch this.” He stuck it to the wall to make it easier to right. He started to write on the note and the words appeared on James’s not too. “Wow reg how did you-“ he was cut off Reg had that magical glint in his eyes again. “Well I figured that since we have to keep this a secret I could make a way for us to communicate whatever you write on there I will see so we can talk without being suspicious.” He explained.
“God Regulus your brilliant.” James gasped in aw at him. “It really wast that hard I just-“ reg said quietly getting flustered by James. James cut him off with a kiss.
“I should really go.” Reg laughed nervously. “Do you have to?” James pleaded. Regulus took his hand out of James’s and gently caressed his face. “I’ll write to you.” And with that the Green eyed boy vanished into the dark shadows of the dungeon.
James just stood there Love struck, nobody ever had that effect on James, well until Regulus showed up that is.

Reg carefully snuck back into the common room, it was empty until he saw the girls dorm girl Creaked open and a griffendor girl with a short brown bob and bangs creeped out giggling there was dark magenta lip stains on her face and neck, the same shade of lipstick his favorite cousin Narsissa used.
And sure enough Narsissa followed the girl out giggleing and blushing, neither had noticed Reg. The girls gently kissed and the brown haired girl snuck out of the portrait leaving Narissa waving lovingly.
Regulus smiled seeing his cousin so happy. Narsissa turned then noticed him. “Oh fuck.” She whispered out of character (narsissa never cursed.) “so…im not the only one sneaking around with a griffendor.” Was all he could manage. “Regulus please don’t tell anyone its just I-“ she stoped relizeing what he said. “Your what?!”
Regulus smiled, he found someone he could talk to about james. “I wont tell if you don’t but you have to tell me who she is.” Regulus said tying up his hair into a short ponytail.
Narissa smiled a lovesick look in her eyes. “Alice Fortescue.”
