Sirius appeared in the common room with a broad smile. Remus knew, he didn't need more proof than his boyfriend's Cheshire cat grin to know something had happened. His first thought was a prank on Snape had been hatched but James was nowhere in sight. Next Remus's mind groped for an answer and snagged on the idea of adultery. Perhaps Sirius was cheating. But Sirius would never, and if he did, he wouldn't walk up to Remus with a huge grin. No there was something, something Remus couldn't quite place his finger on. But as Sirius flopped down onto Remus's lap and the firelight glinted off the small silver studs, Remus knew what was different. Shining silver in the firelight, Sirius's brand new ear piercings seemed to exude a bad boy vibe that Remus found quite interesting. "Nice." He said eyeing the studs with a small smile. Sirius grinned even wider and Remus wondered at what point it would begin causing the boy's head pain but Sirius's notoriously hard head seemed quite fine.
"Got em done over the weekend." Sirius said. It was Sunday night and Remus was reading comfortably in his favorite chair by the fire. And of course, Sirius lay draped across his lap.
"You're not a lap dog." Remus said shifting under his boyfriend, whose smile did not dim, as he adjusted for Remus's comfort.
"So you like em?" Sirius asked as he pulled a hair tie off his wrist and hastily tied his too-long hair back in a haphazard bun, making his new piercings more visible.
"Yes." Remus said. "Are you going to be a man bun guy now too?" Remus asked looking at Sirius's hair with something a little less than dislike and favoring more on the I want to fuck you tonight expression.
"I might." Sirius said laughing.
"It suits you." Remus said smiling.
