Sirius and Remus knew they didn't have many possessions, but looking at their new, barren flat their meager cardboard boxes looked silly. Even with the essentials the couple brought, they had nothing they needed to fill a flat. Sirius wrapped an arm around Remus's waist and looked at their empty living room. "At least it came with a fridge and a stove." The werewolf laughed a little.
"Yeah. Now all we need is everything else." The lovers were quite ready to break in their new apartment—bed or not—when someone knocked. Sirius groaned and buried his head in the crook of Remus's neck.
"Can we tell them to go away?"
"It's probably James. Telling him to go away won't work." The pureblood groaned and unfurled himself from Remus.
"If this is Prongs, then I'm going to hex you." Sirius opened the door to find James, Lily, and Peter.
"Gonna hex us too, Padfoot?" They strolled into the empty flat.
"It's a bit empty mate." Lily smiled at their little cardboard boxes.
"Well you know we just moved in five minutes ago, Prongs." Peter laughed and wandered through the flat. "Why don't you get us some things to fill it up with?" James wrinkled his nose.
"That reminds me, my parents want you to come over. They're planning on giving you dishes." Sirius grinned and placed his arm back around Remus's waist.
"Excellent! Your parents are brilliant." James smiled, but only for a moment. He remembered his other, much more serious reason for visiting. The bespectacled boy threw an arm around Sirius's shoulder.
"Hey Pads, I have something to talk about away from the girlfriends." Remus frowned.
"Who the hell are you calling a girl, Prongs?" James laughed nervously.
"Why Lily of course." He dragged a quite unwilling Sirius away from the 'girlfriends' and into an empty room. He released the other animagus and worriedly looked out the window. "So I found out how to contact the Order of the Phoenix."
"And you didn't want Moony to know that?" James looked over at Lily and Remus who were opening the cardboard boxes.
"Well I didn't exactly want to tell Lily. And I thought maybe you guys had the same dynamic." Sirius shook his head and threw an arm around James's shoulders.
"You see James, Remus would absolutely kill me if I ever kept anything as serious as this from him. Especially considering how much he wants to be a part of the Order." Sirius clipped James in the back of the head. "Knowing Lily, she'll feel the same. So talk to her about it." The bespectacled boy rubbed his throbbing head.
"Alright, alright. You didn't have to hit me mate." He looked over at Lily; she caught his eye and smiled. "I'll go talk about it with her now. Have fun in the new apartment." He winked. James then walked back to Lily, put an arm around her waist, and whispered in her ear. She nodded and smiled at him.
"Looks like we're leaving. We'll visit again soon." And, with a distinct pop, they were gone. Sirius took advantage of this and wrapped his arms around Remus. He was quite ready to say 'Now where did we leave off?' so Remus could say something incredibly sexy and they could shag on the floor. But things did not go as planned.
"James?" Peter very awkwardly reentered the room. He looked extremely crestfallen upon only seeing Remus and Sirius. "They left?"
"Fraid so Pete." The blonde looked at his feet.
"I guess I'll be going then." He disapparated. Remus laughed a little awkwardly and turned to face Sirius.
"I forgot he was here." Sirius nodded in agreement before crashing his lips down onto Remus's.
"But now that we're finally alone, what do you say about breaking in the flat?" The werewolf reddened slightly.
"Considering we have yet to buy a mattress, you had better be gentle." Sirius smiled and moved his hands to the hem of the werewolf's shirt.
"Oh I will be." In record time the animagus had his boyfriend's and his own clothes off. He rested his forehead against Remus's and lightly brushed their lips together. "I love you, Remus."
"I love you too, Sirius." The pureblood lifted the werewolf and pressed him against the wall of their new apartment. Remus clutched tighter as Sirius slid in. The couple groaned as they moved together. Remus's back was sliding against the wall in a way that would be uncomfortable if Sirius's lips weren't so hotly on his own. The werewolf couldn't be bothered to think about something like that when Sirius was filling him so completely. "Ahh..Sirius." This threw the animagus over the edge. He climaxed and then buried his head into the crook of Remus's neck.
"Have I told you how amazing you are?" The werewolf groaned and loosened his hold on Sirius.
"I won't understand you properly until I get off this wall." Sirius laughed and unwound himself from the werewolf. "Now get me a mattress." Remus went to lie on the floor, but Sirius stopped him.
"You have something so much better than a mattress right here." He laid down first and pulled Remus on top of him. The werewolf nuzzled into his boyfriend's chest. Their flat was still rather empty, but now it felt more like home to the lovers.
"I don't think you should join the Order of the Phoenix." Lily ripped her wrist from James's grasp. "It's dangerous!"
"If it's so dangerous, why the hell are all you joining?"
"We all want to help." Lily laughed sardonically.
"And I don't want to?" James couldn't look at those emerald eyes. "I'm joining with or without your approval." She sighed and titled his chin up. "I would much rather have it though." He laced their fingers together.
"I love you, Lils. I'm just worried something will happen." She smiled and kissed his cheek.
"Nothing will if you promise to watch my back."
"I wouldn't dream of leaving it unguarded." James released Lily's hand and engulfed her in a hug. "You know, I'll only be able to stop worrying if you marry me." She nuzzled into his chest.
"Is that so Potter?" He kissed the top of her head. "Alright then."
"I love you, Lily."
"Love you too, James."
