summary:
Remus Lupin's friendship with Sirius Black had always been complicated, for many different reasons.
They were in opposing houses.
Remus's best friend was Sirius's little brother (that had always added a fun twist).
Sirius knew certain... things about Remus. Things no one else knew.
But none of that had mattered during their first year. They didn't care about their houses, Remus didn't know Regulus yet, and Sirius didn't know any of Remus's secrets.
It wasn't like that anymore, Remus wouldn't even call them friends anymore. It didn't stop one last complication however.
Remus had eyes, after all.
***
Regulus Black is not a hateful person, surprising as that may be to some.
He liked to pretend he hated his brother, but that wasn't real.
There was only one person he actually hated, but that was very much justified. Regulus didn't care how nice he seemed, how caring he was towards Sirius, or Remus, or anyone else he came across. Regulus didn't care how funny he was, how charming. He certainly didn't care to notice how his mess of dark hair looked on the quidditch pitch.
He didn't care one bit.
James Potter had stolen his brother, after all.
