    Summary

    For Christmas one year, James Potter gives Regulus Black a small coin affixed to a necklace so they can communicate. At seventeen, as water fills his lungs, in a cave filled with inferi, Regulus reaches for it.

    --

     

    Regulus gasped against James’s lips, the sudden kiss washing over him in a blazing rush. James kissed him like it mattered. Like if he could just push in close enough, bite Regulus’s lip hard enough, then maybe he could transfer whatever words he always swallowed down. Regulus never really knew what the intensity meant, I love you or I hate you.

     

    Don’t hate me. Don’t hate me.

     

    Regulus wanted to scream. He wanted to beg James to spit it out, to simply tell Regulus whatever he was really thinking. At the same time, Regulus wasn’t sure he could handle it. If James Potter ever hated him, Regulus thought he’d be sick with it. He thought he’d never get out of bed again.

     

    So, Regulus didn’t ask, he’d never ask.

    Summary

    Harry learned that some things ended slowly. War, for one, love, for another.

    It started with a picture of James Potter taken by an unknown person, it ended with a series of tragic love letters shut safely in Regulus Black's dusty bedroom.

    --

     

    “Did Regulus know my dad?”

     

    That got a reaction out of Narcissa, a subtle flinch, and suddenly Harry knew with absolute surety that the picture must have been Regulus’s.

     

    “He did, didn’t he?”

     

    “They were only a year apart at Hogwarts, of course, they knew each other—”

     

    “Aside from that,” Harry interrupted.

     

    Narcissa’s mouth formed a thin line, and Andromeda nudged her. “You should tell him; dead people don’t need their secrets protected,” she said softly.

    Summary

    After a career-ending injury at the Olympic finals, Regulus Black ran away from everything he had ever known—figure skating, his brother, and New England—to start over in Arizona where no one knew his name or how hard he had fallen.

    Five years later, his relationship has fallen apart and there's only one person he knew he could turn to without judgement or hesitation: his brother. The same person he's been avoiding for all that time.

    Unfortunately for Regulus, it's Christmas and Sirius has decided that this year, they're going to make up for lost time by packing in every holiday tradition possible in just a few short weeks. Those traditions include his best friend on the hockey team, James Potter.

    Arrogant. Charismatic. Hot as hell.

    He's everything that Regulus shouldn't want, but he can't seem to stay away.
