Three: Water

She had happily agreed to help James and Sirius cheer Remus up, Sirius said Remus had been feeling ill lately and she had agreed to help them hating to see Remus so down. But in no way had she expected to help this way.

"Sirius Black! Put me down!" Jude struggled against Sirius's arms as he picked her up and threw her over his shoulder.

"Come on Red, its just water." Sirius said flashing a mischievous grin at Remus and James.

It was a hot today, the sun bathing the Hogwarts grounds in heat and light. Students had been outside all day, lounging around in the grass, taking walks around, and swimming in the lake. This was the exact idea the Marauders had gotten to cheer their Remus up, not only that but it also gave Sirius a chance to throw Jude in the lake.

"Don't you dare throw me in that lake!" Jude murmured biting down on his shoulder.

"OY!" Sirius yelped slapping her butt.

"Pipe down up there." He came to the lakes edge and looked down at the water. Jude fought against him trying as hard as she could to get down, but before she could protest Sirius threw her off his shoulders into the water.

Coming up for air she looked to find the three Marauders standing above her laughing.

Sirius grinned at her. "You look good wet." He announced causing more laughter.

Jude smiled and shook the scarlet curls out of her face, reaching a hand up to Sirius to help her out of the water. Sirius took it yet instead of helping Jude up, he himself was being pulled down.

He hit the water with a loud splash, the water form the impact landing on Remus and James. Sirius came up for air and swam towards the others, both were drenched in water Remus looked less then amused, James laughing harder, even Jude was giggling.

"Damn Moony I think you got a little wet." Sirius said snickering.

Remus wasted no time jumping in and on Sirius dunking him under, James following suit and chasing after the other two.

Jude swam closer to the lakes edge smoothing her hair back from her face.

"Thanks love." Sirius whispered in her ear, she smiled as he kissed her cheek and helped her to shore.

She sighed as she watched him swim back to James and Remus, watching as the three boys played. She was happy to see Remus smile again, and as much as she hated water she was happy to help Sirius.

Looking over at the three again she realized she would happily do anything for Sirius.
