Cold
- Good morning! – he kissed my forehead.
- Good morning! – I smiled. – What time is it?
- It’s 10. – he said. – You seemed really tired after yesterday.
- What are your plans for today? – I asked.
- I don’t know, we’ll figure out something. – he said. I climbed out of the bed. I could barely walk. He smirked.
- I’m gonna take a shower. – I said. – Do you wanna come with me?
- Obviously.
- When I said I’m gonna take a shower this was not what I meant. – I breathed heavily.
- Are you complaining? – he asked.
- Yes, why aren’t you in me right now? – I asked. He was surprised at first, but then smirked and climbed on top of me. He ended up fucking me ont he middle of his bathroom floor. It wasn’t the most comfortable, buti t was good, not as good as in the shower though.
- Now you’re happy? – he asked after he finished.
- I’m always happy with you. – I said.
- My parents aren’t home today… - he said.
- What are you planning, babe? – I asked.
- Babe? That’s new. – he said.
- You don’t like it? I won’t call you that if you don’t want me to. I- I just thought-
- I love it. But I liked daddy more. – he smirked.
- Well… I can call you that too. – I smirked.
- I wanna shag you so bad. – he said. He covered his mouth with his hands. I laughed.
The rest of the day went like this. We didi t everywhere. And I mean everywhere. On the kitchen counter, on the couch, on his father’s desk, on the wall, in the armchair, everywhere. He made dinner for us then we ended up doing i ton the kitchen table too. We are two horny teenagers who didn’t have sex for two months, what did you expect?
- I can’t believe we didi t on the kitchen table, my parents are gonna kill me if they find out. – he said.
- I don’t think your father would be happy if he knew about us doing it on his desk. – I said.
- It’s not my fault you’re hot as hell. – he said. I giggled. – You know I thought you were cold, a real snob.
- I am, I’m only nice with you. – I said.
- Why are you lying, love? – he asked.
- I’m not lying, I’m cold, you just bring this out of me. I am in fact a snob. Or at least I was.
- Well, you surely aren’t now. – he said.
- I’m not as good as you think I am, James. – I says.
- I know you’re not good, you’re naughty, a dirty little slut, my slut. – he slowly climbed on top of me.
- Fuck me, please! – I begged.
- Say it again!
- Please, daddy!
- Good boy. – he said and freed me from my clothes.
He almost immediately slept in after we finished. I listened to his heartbeat slow down. His chest moving up and down as he breathes. James Fleamont Potter, I can’t believe you’re mine. The perfect boy to ever exist. The cutest during the day and the wildest at night. Every girls and boys dream. And he’s mine. I don’t even know what he sees in me. He is perfect and I’m just… me. I climbed out of bed and looked in the mirror. I skinny, weak boy full of scars. And he’s tall and strong, that chest, those abs, he’s hot.
- Is something wrong, love? – he hugged me from behind. He wrapped his arms around my waist and put his head on my shoulders.
- I didn’t mean to wake you up. – I said.
- You didn’t wake me up. Is everything alright? – he asked.
- Yeah, of course. – I lied.
- That wasn’t very convincing. – he said. – What’s the problem?
- I just don’t get why someone like you would date someone like me… - I said quietly.
- Oh, Reg. – he kissed my shoulder. – Come here! – I turned around and put my head on his chest. I could feel tears coming into my eyes. – You are beautiful. And kind, funny, smart, incredibly smart, charming, strong, the strongest person I’ve ever known, and cute, adorable, when you blush, your laugh, your smile, they’re just adorable, and hot, you’re the sexiest person I’ve ever seen. If you could only see yourself the way I see you…
- I love you so much. – I wispered.
- I know, I know. I love you too. – He pulled me even closer. I put my head on his shoulder and started crying. – It’s okay, love. I’m here, I’m here now and I’ll be here every time you need me.
- Thank you – I wispered.
- You should try to sleep. – he said. I nodded. I climbed back to bed. – Do you need something?
- I’d accept a tea. – I said.
- I’ll be back in a minute. – he rushed to the kitchen.
I probably fell asleep before he got back, because the next thing I remember is him playing with my hair in the morning.
- Good morning, babe. – I said.
- More like good afternoon. – he smiled.
- What time is it? – I asked.
- 2 p.m. – he said.
- What? – I freaked out. – How?
- You were really tired after yesterday. Is everything okay now? – he asked.
- Yes. I don’t even know why that happened, I’m usually not like this. – I explained.
- You don’t have to explain it to me. I don’t want you to feel like you need to give an explanation. Everyone has bad days. Just know I’m here if you need me. – he said. I slowly kissed him.
- James! Regulus! Could you come down? – Effie shouted.
- A minute. – James shouted back. He started dressing up. – You don’t have to come down if you’re too tired.
- James, I’m fine. – I said and dressed up.
- What is it? – James asked when we got tot he kitchen. Effie looked worried. – Mom, what is it? You’re freaking me out.
She handed us the newspaper. „Chaos in France” was the title. „Chaos is taking over the kingdom, while the king is on vacation. The king left a few days ago and everyone went crazy. Robberies, murderers, school shootings…” James looked at me. I was freaked out. I don’t know what to do. I’m a kid how could I deal with this? James hugged me after seeing the fear on my face.
- It’s gonna be okay. – he wispered.
- I need to go back. – I said.
- Do you want me to come with you? – he asked.
- No, it’s too dangerous. – I said.
- Call me when you get home, okay? – he asked.
- Okay. – I packed my things as fast as I could. – Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Potter. – I said.
- Effie. – she corrected me.
- Thank you Effie and Monty. – I said. They smiled at me.
- I’ll drop you off at the airport. – James said. I nodded.
He drove as fast as he could. Before I went ont he plane he kissed my forehead. I don’t know what to do. I just know I have to go back home. I always wanted to be a king, but ever since I met James I don’t want this. I’m just a kid. I wanna live my life as every other teenager.
- Evan! Barty! – I saw them when the plane landed. I jumped in their necks.
- How is the prince? – Barty asked.
- Shut up. – I laughed.
- So everything’s alright? – Evan asked.
- I wouldn’t say everything, but with him yes. I almost forgot, I have to call him or he’ll kill me. – I said.
- Our little Reggie grew up. – Barty said. – You changed a lot. Potter changed you.
- He made me happy. – I said. – But let’s go, I have a lot to do.
When we got home I called him. He was worried, but he was definitely relieved when he heard my voice.
- WHERE WERE YOU?!?!! – my mother shouted at me.
- I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I’m sorry… - I repeated.
- SORRY ISN’T ENOUGH! YOU ARE A KING, YOU CAN’T JUST LEAVE THE KINGDOM! WHEN WILL YOU LEARN IT? YOU NEED TO BE MORE RESPONSIBLE! – she shouted. I stepped back to Barty and Evan.
- I know. – I said.
- KNOWING ISN’T ENOUGH! YOU NEED TO DO SOMETHING BEFORE THIS GET’S WORSE! – she shouted.
- BUT I DON’T KNOW WHAT! I’M A CHILD! I DON’T WANNA DO THIS! – I shouted too.
- DON’T BE LIKE YOUR BROTHER! ARE YOU A KING OR A LITTLE GIRL? GROW UP! – she shouted. I was shaking.
- LEAVE HIM ALONE! YOU DON’T KNOW SHIT ABOUT REGULUS! HE’S THE BRAVEST PERSON I’VE EVER MET! – Barty shouted. I looked at him with a little smile.
- LEAVE MY HOUSE! – my mother shouted.
- REGULUS DOESN’T WANNA BE PART OF YOUR TWISTED GAMES! – Evan shouted. I smiled at him with tears in my eyes.
- I’M HIS MOTHER! HE DOES WHAT I SAY! – Walburga shouted.
- You’re wrong. I’m the king now, you have no control over me. – I said. – Guards, take her!
- No, you can’t do this to me! – she screamed while the guards took her.
- I in fact can do this. – I was cold. This is my side I never want James to see. After the guards took my mother Barty and Evan hugged me. – Thank you. – I wispered.
- After all you did for as this is the minimum. – Barty said. Evan nodded.
- I don’t know what I would do without you. – I said.
We spent the rest of the day together, like when we were younger. They are my family. They always were. They were there to me at my lowest and I was there at theirs. I helped them escape from their fathers and now they helped me from my mother. The next morning I went in a school. Seven kids and two teachers died there two days ago in a schooting. Little kids. Who could do this? Who is evil enough to kill kids? Children, little children, they were barely ten years old.
- Thank you for welcoming me. I know what happened was a huge loss to all of you, to all of us. I know it’s partly my fault. I shouldn’t have left the country. But I did and you suffered, because of my mistake. This isn’t fair. But we can’t do anything about it now. I wish I could go back in time and change it, but I can’t. I know nothing can make this up. I will do my best to prevent anything like this happen’. I will find who did it and make sure they won’t get away with it. Guards will stand in front of every school. I give two million euros to every school that suffered from a school shooting. I know money can’t make up the lost people, but it’s the only thing I can do. It was a huge loss for the whole kingdom. I know how hard it is to loose a friend, a family member, a lover, but you have to remember they’d want you to live instead of them too. You have to stay strong. You can do this. We can do this. Together. – I said. – Thank you.
I looked around. Thousands of people, students, friends, teachers, parents, siblings, grandparents, everyone was there. And everyone was crying. I can’t believe anyone could do anything like this. The speech was recorded so everyone could watch it. The other people who lost their family or friend in the shooting. I went back home and called James. I was sobbing. I gave the money back to those who were robbed. I still have a lot of money, they need it more than me. I hired the best detectives of the country to find the people who did this. There was nothing else I could do. I hope this is enough. I just wanted to hug James and stay like that forever. Just get lost in his. The fact that this all happened in three days…
