Sirius, Remus and the
Invisible Cloak of Invisibility
[by victoria p.]

Rating: R

Summary: Remus and Sirius have a brief adventure with (and without) James's Invisibility Cloak

Notes: This was written for Twinkledru J, in the comments of her LiveJournal. She wanted a fic that started with "Oh, fuck." and ended with "So they stole it." I attempted to oblige, and this was the result. Pure silliness.

Date: February 10, 2003

"Oh, fuck," Remus groaned and rolled over, hitting the hard wall of Sirius' body.

Sirius grumbled in his sleep but didn't wake.

Though they lay in a shaft of golden morning sunlight, Remus shivered. He seemed to recall it being a lot warmer last night, but then, he and Sirius had been ...

His train of thought was interrupted by a girlish titter.

Narcissa stood over him, laughing.

"Remus, why is she laughing at us?" Sirius growled, squinting up at Narcissa. Remus rolled his eyes. Sirius was never at his best in the morning. "We're supposed to be invisible. She shouldn't be able to see us."

"Oh, I can see you all right, boys. I can see all of you," she giggled and let her eyes run over their bodies. "It's not a bad look, I must say. Don't you boys go anywhere, now. I've just got to tell the rest of the girls."

"Remus?" Sirius' voice was low and dangerous. "What happened?"

"Well, we got drunk."

"I remember that." He winced, rubbing his head. "Sort of."

"And then we took James' Invisibility Cloak, because--"

"I wanted to have sex in the hallway." Sirius groaned. "What were we thinking?"

"I don't think thinking entered into it," Remus answered honestly. He stood, groaning, his hangover making itself known.

Sirius stumbled to his feet also, blearily looking for his clothes. "We have no clothes, Remus."

"I see that, Sirius," Remus answered patiently.

"And the cloak?"

"They stole it."

They hurried as fast as they could through the early morning halls of the school, their knowledge of the secret passageways aiding them in their attempt to get back to the Gryffindor dorm unseen.

James was sitting waiting for them, frowning.

"We can explain," Sirius began. Stumbling, starting and stopping, attempting to make up a believable story that allowed for taking the Invisibility cloak but didn't conclude with them ending up naked in the hallway outside the Slytherin common room, Remus finished, "So they stole it."

"They stole it," James repeated, raising an eyebrow.

"They stole it."

"Are you so sure it was a 'they'?" Lily asked, appearing in the doorway, holding something that looked remarkably like James' Invisibility cloak in her hands. She smiled wickedly. "You two make a pretty picture. Narcissa was quite impressed."

"You stole it?" Remus and Sirius asked in shocked unison.

She smiled. "I stole it. And I'd do it again, too."

Remus and Sirius exchanged a quick glance, and Remus promised himself never to get on Lily Evans' bad side.
