Prompt 20 - Hold

@rosekillermicrofic September 20, word count 484

Previous part First Jegulus part

Sirius ushered the final customer out of the door and locked up. Together, they all helped clean the café so they could go relax in Regulus’s newly furnished flat. 

“Come on then, let’s see this life-changing video then,” Regulus said from James’s lap. While there was adequate seating for a small gathering, there was not enough for nine people. So on the sofa was Regulus sitting on James, Barty on Evan, Sirius and Remus on cushions on the floor, Pandora on a footstool and Monty on Effie's lap in the armchair. It was all very cosy. 

“Oh, yeah,” Barty said, as though it had slipped his mind as if it would. 

He pulled out his phone, loaded up the video and gave it to Regulus to hold. Regulus pressed play. 

Regulus’s eyes widened in shock as he watched the video. He watched it a few times before handing it to Sirius with a shaking hand. Sirius snatched the phone from Regulus and looked at the screen. 

“Oh my gods!” His mouth hung open as he stared at the screen. 

“Fuck you burger face!” Barty heard for the tenth time in the last few minutes. 

“Did you really do that?” Sirius’s voice cracked. Barty nodded, and before he knew it he had both the Black brothers hugging him bone breakingly tight. 

“Alright, alright, I get it you’re grateful,” They pulled back and he met their eyes. “That bitch deserves everything she gets,” He said vehemently. He ended up being hugged again. The phone got passed over to Effie and Monty. Barty heard their gasps then peels of laughter as they watched it again. 

Poor Evan ended up a bit squashed when the rest of the room tried to collectively hug Barty. “Enough, go hug each other,” Barty snapped, having had enough of the physical contact. 

They ate Chinese food, bought by Effie and Monty to say thank you to everyone for their parts in the Pettigrew issue, and Monty snuck Barty an extra fortune cookie for the video. He and Sirius both asked if he would send them the video so they could rewatch it themselves. 

“I’m so putting this on the internet,” Sirius beamed when the video transferred and Barty could hear his voice cursing Walburga for the umpteenth time. “Hey, Barty, could I have a word, in private?” Sirius asked once he’d put his phone away. Barty narrowed his eyes, but let Sirius lead him into Regulus’s kitchen. 

“What do you want?” Barty asked. He really had no idea what Sirius could want from him. 

“You have a van, right?” Sirius asked. 

“Yes,” Barty said uncertainly. 

“Don’t suppose you fancy a bit of breaking and entering of Grimmauld Place, do you?” Barty felt like all his Christmases had come at once. 

“Fuck yes!” 

“Good, I think Regulus has been parted from his books for long enough,” Barty was liking this idea very much.

HAND OVER THE CHEEBS AND NOBODY GETS HURT

[stardustemotions]

i hope that someday, somebody wants to hold you for twenty minutes straight, and that's all they do. They don't pull away. They don't look at your face. They don't try to kiss you. All they do is wrap you up in their arms, without an ounce of selfishness in it.
