Summary
One kiss. One dare. One ruined reputation.
Bellatrix Black was never meant to fall—not for a Gryffindor. Not for him. When she’s dared to kiss someone at a pureblood party, she chooses James Potter. It’s supposed to be a statement. A power play. A warning.
He kisses her back.
It should’ve ended there. But at Hogwarts, hatred is safer than desire—especially when secrets bleed, reputations rot, and the person you loathe becomes the only one who understands you.
It was meant to be a game.
One kiss. One night.
But James Potter kisses like a challenge—and Bellatrix doesn’t know how to walk away.
Their secret could shatter everything.
She almost hopes it does.

Summary
Basically my take on the Red Room scene from Red White and Royal Blue and the scene that follows but make it Starchaser at Hogwarts.
Aka James “So I guess I should tell you I’m bisexual” Potter and Regulus “Good to know. I am very, very gay” Black finally get together.
