Fics like castles crumbling

For Christmas one year, James Potter gives Regulus Black a small coin affixed to a necklace so they can communicate. At seventeen, as water fills his lungs, in a cave filled with inferi, Regulus reaches for it. -- Regulus gasped against James’s lips, the sudden kiss washing over him in a blazing rush. James kissed him like it mattered. Like if he could just push in close enough, bite Regulus’s lip hard enough, then maybe he could transfer whatever words he always swallowed down. Regulus never really knew what the intensity meant, I love you or I hate you. Don’t hate me. Don’t hate me. Regulus wanted to scream. He wanted to beg James to spit it out, to simply tell Regulus whatever he was really thinking. At the same time, Regulus wasn’t sure he could handle it. If James Potter ever hated him, Regulus thought he’d be sick with it. He thought he’d never get out of bed again. So, Regulus didn’t ask, he’d never ask.
