Another Way Out. Regulus x reader

Part 2.9

"Wow, what do you think I am, a common whore? At least take me out to dinner first," regulus laughed while sitting down next to me.

Shocked by his words I shoved him a little while laughing. "Jesus, who are you and what have you done with regulus"

"Hey, I'm just happy. Unless you would prefer me being all moody around you again" regulus laughed before suddenly making a blank expression.

"Do you like this more" he said deadpan.

"Oh yes, I definitely prefer the emotionless guy who barely acknowledged me. But no, I definitely prefer happy Reggie over moody Reggie," I laughed but he kept him expression the same.

"You know what, I might stay like this. You seem to like it more" he said emotionless.

"No no, go back, smile" i said reaching my hands up to his face and moving his mouth into a smile.

Regulus started to actually smile and put his hands on mine.

The moment his hands touched mine my stomach filled with hundreds of butterflies. In that moment all I wanted to do was lean in and kiss him.

"Fine, I'll smile, but only for you" he smiled before removing his hands. Once he did I quickly removed mine from his face.

"So, what do we do now" regulus said pointing to the phials.

"Oh right, the next thing we need to do is spit the leaf into the phial," I answered, picking up the phial.

"Oh okay, easy enough" he said spitting it into the phial.

I didn't want him to see me spit so I turned away from him and spit the leaf into it. Then I put it back on the floor in front of us.

Regulus must have noticed me do that because he started looking at me with a puzzled expression.

"So what's next" he asked instead of questioning me about turning away.

"Oh well, we are going to add three drops of morning dew, and the the head of a hawk moth" i said pulling the ingredients out of my bag.

We both did so and shook the phials a bit to mix it up.

"Alright, now all me have to do is store them in a dark quite place and wait for an electrical storm" I said putting everything away.

"Right, and when there is an electrical storm we should meet in the forest, just in case we become loud and wake people up" regulus suggested.

"Perfect, and don't forget to do the incantation every sunrise and sunset" I reminded, handing him his phial.

"Of course, but get some sleep, you have a game tomorrow" regulus commented.

I sighed "how could I forget, wish me luck".

"I will"

"I'm fucked" I mumbled, peaking my head out of the changing rooms to see the massive crowd ready to see us play ravenclaw.

"No you're not, you are one of the best keepers gryffindor has ever had" Sirius reassured me.

"I'm not so sure about that, you saw me the other day. I couldn't block for shit" I stammered while pacing back and forth.

"Maybe you need some fresh air, step out and take a minute, that usually helps me" Remus suggested.

"Great idea" I mumbled before practically sprinting out of the tent.

Whenever I got nervous for something I always felt like I had this energy running through me. Usually it made me jumpy and anxious. And Usually I would pace around for a bit and I would feel less energetic and anxious but today, that wasn't working.
