“plan” - Jegulus microfic - @into-the-jeggyverse - 374 words
“Do you have a plan?” Regulus asks James, sitting across from him in the common room.
“Of course I have a plan.” James rolls his eyes.
“And… what’s the plan?”
“Well… I’m going to go up to the dorm…” James trails off.
“And…?” Regulus asks.
“And… that’s it. That’s all I have of the plan so far.” James admits.
“James!” Regulus scolds him.
“Regulus.” James whines. “I’m not good at planning thing!”
“You, who has planned a thousand pranks, are not good at planning things?” Regulus raises an eyebrow.
“I’m not good at planning words–” James starts. “And I’m not good with murder.”
“Murder?” Regulus questions.
“He’s going to kill me, Reg. He’s going to kill me for defiling his baby brother!” James drops his head in his hands.
“Okay, that’s it.” Regulus stands up and walks over to the couch where James is sitting. He grabs James’ wrist, pulls him up and starts pulling him towards to stairs to the dorms.
“No… Reg, wait... Stop... We need a plan!...” James rambles all the way up the stairs.
“James.” Regulus stops them once they get outside James’ dorm. “It’s going to be fine.” James tries to interrupt, but Regulus keeps going. “And he’s not going to kill you. Only I’m allowed to kill you.” Regulus smirks and pushes up on his toes to kiss James.
James rolls his eyes but leans down to kiss Regulus one more time. Just then, the dorm room door opens and Sirius steps out into the hall. All three of them freeze, all eyes bouncing from one person to another. Finally, Sirius breaks eye contact and leans around the door frame.
“Moons, you owe me 30 galleons. I caught them before they told me.” Sirius yells into the dorm.
“You bet?” Regulus asks at the same time James says, “You knew?”
“Yes, and yes.” Sirius answers.
“And you’re okay with it?” James asks nervously.
“Okay with the relationship, not with the kissing. No more kissing.” Sirius points at James then continues down the stairs.
James looks back at Regulus and they stare at each other for a moment until James starts to smile. “See, my plan worked!” James says proudly.
