James found himself in a dark room. He was on the floor curled up and staring at the door quietly. He gave a slight sigh and then suddenly straightened up. He could hear the sound of foot steps. His eyes stared at the crack under the door to see if anyone was coming close to where he was hiding. He tried to pull a couple of cloaks in front of him to try and stay hidden as best he could. Suddenly there was light filling the closet as the door was flung open. There was a screech and next thing he knew there was a small boy with messy black hair throwing himself at James. James laughed and held onto his son looking up to the man that had opened the door. "Took long enough did you count to a thousand and have a snack?"

Sirius gave his bark like laugh as he moved to the side and let James and Harry out of the closet. "Well we did something like that. The snack is a good idea though, maybe after we find Moony."

James watched as Harry got up and grabbed Sirius' hand and started to lead him through the hall. James had been out of a house after Voldemort had somehow ruined it and Remus' house was too small. After a bit of drinking one night and hanging out talking with Sirius and Remus they came to terms of getting a new one. He would have help and support from Sirius and Remus. "And here I thought a coat closet would be a good place for hiding." Sirius laughed as Harry pulled him through one of the bedroom doors and watched as Harry started searching the room. "Looks like you need to take lessons from Lupin. I figured he'd be in an easy spot for a one year old to find him." James gave Sirius a slap on the back half to give him that pain half jokingly. "Don't worry we'll find him shortly."

Sirius and James were lead through the house room by room, half way through they even started helping Harry try to find Remus. After they had gone through the house room by room and had yet to find Remus both men were frowning. "Where the fuck is he?" Sirius asked a bit loudly, annoyed he hadn't found Remus. "Well no better time for a snack!" James called out. Harry's head turned around to look at James and his face lit up with a huge smile and ran at James. "Nac!"

Sirius gave a smirk and followed as they made their way to the kitchen. "I guess someone will just have to have Moony's snack."

James started through the kitchen and went to the ice box pulling out a tub of ice cream. This seemed to be nearly what Harry had been waiting for. He started bouncing his way over to the table trying to climb into a chair. Sirius grabbed a few bowls and set them on the counter by James. James started digging through the cabinets getting every kind of sprinkles and syrups that he could. A little snack meant a sugar high for Harry.

After scooping three bowls of ice cream out he set them on the table with the sprinkles and syrups and watched Harry's eyes go wide. James gave a smile and began putting every thing Harry pointed out to him on his sons bowl of ice cream. He himself didn't know how the child could manage to eat nothing but all those sprinkles and chocolate syrup but figured if his son was happy with it then there was nothing else he could do about it.

Sirius had pretty much gotten the same things Harry had on his and even went as far as grabbing whip cream to place on top of his sundae. This caused Harry to screech and point at the can. Sirius smirked at Harry and tilted his head back spraying some in his mouth causing Harry to give a cry of panic. After all Sirius might eat it all. James gave Sirius a punch on the arm and a slight glare. "Don't be an ass to him." Sirius tried to keep from spitting whip cream all over the place as he started to laugh at the look James and Harry were giving him. It really was amazing how much Harry resembled James.

Sirius sprayed a tiny dot of cream on Harry's and looked at the look of shock on the little boys face and started laughing so hard he thought he'd cry. James gave Sirius another punch and took the can away from him before filling the rest of Harry's bowl with the cream. "There you go son. Don't worry about mean old padfoot. Daddy will beat him for you." Harry of course was too busy shoving his mouth full of whip cream to really care.

Sirius grinned and started eating his as well. James frowned as he took a small bite. "Where the hell is Moony?" James sighed and shook his head. "Can do a quick charm if we need to but I figured if he wants to hide that badly he can come out and find we ditched him." Sirius shook his head. "Might want to try the charm. Who knows maybe he's trapped in a vent or some crap like that." James started laughing at the idea of Remus being trapped in some small area just because he was trying to be an ass.

Half way through eating their ice cream (Harry was nearly completely done with his and seemed fully ready to lick the bowl clean) Remus came walking into the kitchen with a grin on his face. "And the undefeated champion at hide and seek goes to Remus 'Moony' Lupin!" James frowned at Remus. "Where the hell were you?"

Remus gave a laugh as he sat at the table. "In the garden. Where's mine?" He asked questioning about the ice cream only in time a bit hit him in the face. James looked around and Sirius automatically pointed at Harry who was laughing so much and drooling ice cream. Remus began wiping it from his face and gave a growl. "What the hell was that for?" Sirius flipped him off and took another bite of ice cream. "You were supposed to be hiding inside. Remember ass?"

Remus shrugged. "Well you wouldn't have had so much fun trying to look for me in here now would you?" James held up his hand and rolled his eyes at the both of them. "Seriously you two are like a damned married couple can you knock it off?" Sirius gave a smirk. "Jealous, love bean?" James looked at Sirius and picked up his spoon. "I'm about ready to send some more ice cream in your direction if you don't watch it." Sirius snorted into his bowl and Remus stood up. "So what are we to do now?" James shrugged a bit. They had a long time to do whatever they wanted. As long as Harry was happy he was happy.
