“You ready yet?” Remus called through to Sirius. “We’re already running late!”
“Had to get the makeup just right,” Sirius came around the corner with a light blue suit complete with pointed shoulder pads. An orange mullet and a lightning bolt drawn perfectly in red and blue from his forehead down to the bottom of his right cheek. He looked amazing.
“You know you’re keeping that on when we get back, right?” Remus almost whined. Sirius waggled his eyebrows suggestively at him before freaking out and running into the bathroom to check that his makeup was still perfect.
“Damn it Remus!” he cried. Remus laughed, then let out a contented sigh. He’d thought they’d never get back to this playfulness in their relationship. He hadn’t felt this light in years. “Right, I’m ready,” Sirius said as he picked up the bag containing a truly obscene amount of sweets for Harry. “It’s his first Halloween when he actually knows what’s going on. Last year, he slept through it all,” Sirius had argued two days ago, when he’d basically wiped out Honeydukes’ entire supply of products.
“What are you again?” Sirius asked him as they walked towards the front door.
“Sid Vicious, obviously,” Remus said grumpily. He was wearing a black shirt with a black jacket over it and a bright tie. He’d mussed his hair up a bit as well. He thought he’d done quite a good job of it, actually.
“Yeah, alright. You look more like a professor, though,” Sirius snorted. “Alohomora!” Sirius said, pointing his wand at the door.
“Have you lost your keys again?” Remus asked. Sirius pulled a face at him.
“No, I think James jinxed them the last time I went over. They keep disappearing from my pocket and ending up in odd places. Alohomora!” He said again, but the door didn’t open. Remus pushed the handle down, and the door swung open. Sirius’s keys were still in the outside of the door.
“Pillock,” Remus huffed as he dragged Sirius through the door and locked it before they apparated to Godric’s Hollow to spend their Halloween with the Potters.
