Regulus and you aren’t on the best of terms at the moment. You started getting into arguments which lead to fights which lead to you not talking to him for a few days which lead to, well, now.

You’re sat in the great hall with James, Sirius, Peter and Remus. Sirius is complaining about God knows what. You’re not really listening.

Regulus is sat across the hall at the Slytherin table with Barty. He’s frowning as Barty talks at him. He’s not eating anything and he’s wearing just a band tee you bought him for his last birthday, despite it being the middle of winter. On a normal day you’d be next to him, playing with his hair and making sure he was eating, but this isn’t a normal day, you aren’t speaking.
