Summary
Regulus Black loves France. Which is why, when he's called into his father's office and coldly informed that he's going to be entering the same foreign exchange program that his brother did a few years prior---in Britain nonetheless---he has a very hard time believing that anything will ever be okay again. Within days, everything he's ever known is turned on its head. He's forced into a world with people he can't communicate with, customs he doesn't understand, and a brother whom he's not sure how to talk to anymore. It's hard to find his footing, when every step seems to fall out from beneath him, and every decision feels wrong.
Sirius Black hates France. The culture is lovely, but between the abuse of his parents and the crushing weight of their expectations, Sirius finds it hard to find things to reminisce about. Really, the only thing he misses is his brother, who slips further through his hands with every passing minute. When he gets the call, he’s almost happy for a moment. That is, until he’s very promptly informed that his brother blames him for being torn away from France, and becomes aware that this is very unlikely to bring them closer together.
Instead, it's likely to tear them completely apart.

Summary
“Okay, okay. You’ll find someone to pine after soon enough, though, I’m sure.” Sirius gets up and goes to James’ overflowing chest of drawers, pulling one open to look for a more suitable pair of jeans.
James goes back to looking in the mirror.
“I don’t pine,” He mutters.
***
British modern high school AU where James is the popular jock/ football star and Regulus is the quiet artist who couldn't be less bothered by status or popularity.
They work on a project together. Pining ensues.
