“I need your help,” Remus said softly to James, who immediately looked up from his sloppily-scrawled essay and gave him a concerned look.
“What? Are you okay? Does it have to do with the wolf?” he demanded.
“No, no, I’m fine,” he reassured the other boy, insides warming with appreciation for his friend. “No, I need your help with…a prank of sorts.”
James grinned. “Excellent. Who’re we pranking?”
Remus sighed and gave him a small smile. “Sirius’s been such a tease lately. I was hoping you might help me…dress differently. Erm…nicer? Get him a bit flustered, you know?”
The other boy smirked wickedly. “Oh, my dear, dear Moony. You’ve come to the right place.”
It took only an hour. After much poking and prodding and removing of fabric, Remus looked in the mirror nervously and almost chickened out. He’d never revealed so much of his skin before. But James, who looked on like a proud mother, beamed and said, “You look hot, Moons. Sirius’ll fucking die.”
So Remus took a deep breath and nodded.
Together, they made their way to the common room where Sirius and Peter were playing chess. Though neither of the other boys looked up right away, Remus could feel eyes on him as soon as he arrived in the room. However, as soon as Sirius’s gray eyes trailed over to him, he zeroed in on his boyfriend’s reaction.
“Moony,” he gasped, dropping the chess piece he was holding. “Is that a crop top?”
“It’s James’s,” Remus murmured in response, quite enjoying the way Sirius was turning blotchy and clearly struggling to breathe. “D’you like it?”
“Do I–” Sirius cut himself off, lost for words for the first time in his life. “Of fucking course I do. “Sorry, Wormy, I have to go snog my boyfriend!” he exclaimed, standing up and almost upsending the chess board.
“Nope. I have plans. Sorry!” Remus said in a sing-song voice. And he left the room with a giant grin.
