Ginny was sitting on the living room floor with James watching something on the telly and stacking blocks. Ginny always had a kid program on in the late morning due to it being his favorite, but he lost interest instantly.
"Aunt Mione!" He screamed and launched himself at her when she walked through the fireplace.
Hermione took the boy in her arms and started covering his face with kisses. "My not so little Jamesie, how are you, lovey?" She asked him and he grinned at her.
"Mobies are on the telly," he told her with a serious voice and Hermione stifled a giggled.
"Sounds like you should finish up watching and we can talk about the latest event of said Mobies," she declared and he gave her a nod when she put him down.
Sirius was frowning and glaring at Ginny, "she comes over and I am completely ignored?"
Ginny smirked and nodded, "she is his favorite, by far."
"Kid, we need to talk," Sirius walked up to the boy who was sitting and watching his show. "I am supposed to be the favorite. I was your daddy's favorite too."
"Uncle Sirius, it is Mobies," he tried to convince the older man, clearly disinterested in the man's conversation.
Sirius shook his head and frowned at Remus, "I was Harry's favorite, you know that."
Remus waved him off and sat down in the chair, "not a chance, Pads. Harry liked me because I was warmer."
Hermione climbed on the floor with her friend and rested her head on Ginny's lap. "Oh, you only do this when you are upset. What is wrong?" Ginny declared and Hermione sighed.
Sirius scoffed, "That Malfoy boy, he is a prat."
Remus covered his smile, "I believe she is still upset with you, Sirius."
"I am not talking about any of this with them here," She told Ginny who giggled.
James got up during the commercial and went over to Remus, "Uncle Remus, where is Teddy?"
"We are going to see him soon. You can come visit us tomorrow if you like." Remus told the boy.
Hermione sat up and stared at the werewolf, "is Teddy coming to stay with us?"
Remus smiled and gave her a nod, "yes he is. A couple of weeks to start. Andromeda wants to ease him into it. I agree with her. It is a big change and I would hate to cause him too much stress."
Hermione scooped James up and started to dance with him in her arms, "so exciting, James! Now we can see Teddy whenever we want!" Hermione exclaimed and the boy giggled.
Ginny flicked her wand at the telly and James made a face, "we have guests, James and your Uncle Sirius missed you." His mother spoke to the child and Hermione put him down.
James walked over to Sirius who picked him up and smiled, "am I still your favorite?" He asked the child who nodded. "Good, here you go," he handed the boy a toy motorbike from his pocket.
Hermione glared at him, "bribery, Sirius?"
"I would do the same with Teddy, but unfortunately he is in love with books and that is your department." Sirius declared smartly and Hermione rolled her eyes.
Hermione huffed and Remus grabbed her and sat her on his lap, "now Miss Granger, there is no need to be so put out. You are still my favorite," he teased her and she blushed fiercely.
She pulled away and cleared her throat, "I am going to run to the loo," she murmured and went around the corner.
Ginny was giggling and her cheeks were pink," Remus Lupin!" She gasped and Sirius shook his head.
"You shouldn't tease her like that, Moony," Sirius snickered and James nodded.
Remus exhaled and smirked slightly, "she was asking for it. So, bustled she gets with you, Padfoot. She forgets there are two of us."
"Jealous prat." Sirius spat and shook his head at James. "Your Aunt Mione is going to be a very mad witch soon."
"How is that all working for you?" Ginny asked, cleaning up the things on the floor.
Sirius groaned and ran a hand through James's hair. "Frustrating."
Remus shook his head, "Padfoot is upset she just doesn't want jump into shagging us both silly. I for one am thankful of that... she is unique."
Ginny glared at the werewolf, "she shouldn't, that I do know."
"I do too, but it still is frustrating!" Sirius exclaimed and the witch reappeared.
She went and sat down on the couch next to Sirius, "you are the frustrating one, Sirius," she said flatly. "You both should know, the bathroom wall can hear the living room chatter."
Sirius blushed deeply and Hermione gasped in pure enjoyment. "I guess you did not know that," she relished his discomfort.
James hopped away from the disgruntled man and wandered off, "Where are you going, lovebug?" Ginny asked.
"Room, I want a book for Uncle Remus," James murmured and Ginny giggled.
Hermione and Sirius were in a staring contest and Remus felt her extreme angst and sexual tension toward the man. "Alright, you two, knock it off. We aren't at home where you can nail her to the floor, Pads."
Hermione grinned and wandered over to the werewolf, sitting across in his lap, wrapping her arms around his neck and raising an eyebrow at the abandoned animagus. Sirius snorted and threw a wave at her, "have him then, you bloody twitchy witch," he grumbled and she giggled, gazing over at Remus.
"I am not going to be a pawn in your game, Hermione. You forget I am a marauder too." Remus warned her with a smirk.
Ginny clapped, "this is so much better than those books my mum reads." She was giggling madly.
Remus buried his face in her neck and nipped at her skin making her jump off of him, "Moony, you couldn't just let me tease him a bit?" She asked pointedly with a blush.
James returned with a book and handed it to Remus, "Red Riding Hood? James, you are absolutely appropriate today!" Remus declared with a wolfish grin and Hermione turned scarlet and went to go get something to drink.
Sirius huffed and patted the couch, "come on up here with me, Ginevra. I have a question."
Ginny climbed up on the couch and smiled as Remus started to read the book to James. "What can I do for you, Sirius?" Ginny murmured and Sirius frowned.
"Why did she stop shagging your brothers?" He whispered and Ginny blushed brightly.
Ginny glanced to see her still busy making tea in the kitchen. "She asked if one of them would go steady with her so they could keep doing it and they told her no. Fred, I guess, told her it was wrong what they were doing. Told her it wasn't normal for a girl to shag two people on the regular and she was too young to understand that yet. They started dating different women pretty quickly after that and it broke her heart." Ginny breathed quickly.
Sirius frowned deeply and shook his head, "that is quite a bugger of a situation."
Hermione reappeared and handed Ginny and Sirius a cup before going back in the kitchen. He glanced down at the cup and saw she dressed it exactly how he enjoyed it. How did she remember things like that? Ginny saw him looking and nodded with a smile, "she always remembers, trust me."
She came over to Remus and put down his cup on the table next to him just as he was roaring like the wolf in the book. Hermione stifled a giggle and sighed before going into the kitchen again. "Gin, where are the biscuits?" She called out.
"Top shelf, Mione," Ginny replied and turned back to Sirius. "She is different with you two, please be careful with her. She thinks she is so strong and has been for everyone, but she looks delicate with you both. More of a woman and less of a... soldier," Ginny finished quietly and Sirius nodded.
James roared at Remus who grinned and mimicked the boy, "Go scare your Aunt Mione," he told the child who jumped off his lap and ran into the kitchen.
He growled at her and she giggled at him. "Don't tell me you are taking after your Uncle Remus. He is the big bad wolf, you know?" She asked picking him up, walking with the boy on her hip and her tea in her free hand.
"He doesn't scare you?" James asked her as she reached the living room.
"Not in the least bit, lovey," she told the boy and put him down.
Remus admired her as she sat down near him and sipped her tea. She had a few cookies on a plate next to his tea and she pushed the plate toward him and turned to Ginny. He didn't hear her talking, he just felt her contentment and affection which gave him a deep stirring. He glanced at Sirius who mirrored his expression and they had one of those silent moments of agreement; a conversation not spoken.
"Remus?" Ginny inquired and he turned toward her.
"Yes, Ginny?" He responded and she tilted her head.
"I asked if you were interested in coming to dinner at the Burrow on Saturday." Ginny declared and Hermione giggled.
"Of course, I am, Sirius and I are coming as Hermione's dates," Remus said dismissively and sipped his tea.
Hermione blushed and her jaw dislocated, "what?" She choked.
Remus nodded and nibbled on one of the cookies, "mhm, I could have sworn we told you that, love." He was playing it off and Hermione turned scarlet.
Hermione glared at him, "that is just wrong, Remus!" her emotions were screaming in anxiety, "Do you know what that would make me look like? Disgusting." She spat and stood up. "I love you, James," she murmured to the boy on the floor and kissed his hair.
"I love you too, Aunt Mione."
"Hermione," Remus started and she waved at him.
"No, I am not talking about this. We can't talk about this. I don't know what I was even thinking! It isn't normal, Remus." She growled and went to hug Ginny. "I will talk to you later, I am going home." She left out the front door so suddenly the entire room felt thick with her fear.
Ginny sighed heavily and shook her head, "you shouldn't surprise her with things like that, Remus."
"I wasn't expecting that," he admitted and Sirius snorted.
"You heard the story about the twins, Moony. You cannot say you did not." Sirius said pointedly.
"Which is why I was making it clear we aren't just here to shag her, Pads. I don't think it is wrong. Different and quite masterful for us to be able to not fight over her, but not wrong." He paused and shook his head, "that explains why she is very conservative. They may not have realized it, but they stunted her in a way." Remus sighed and rubbed his face.
Ginny groaned and sipped her tea, "now what? You both scared her off."
The werewolf rubbed his face, "well, knowing Hermione Granger's feelings intimately now... She went to the library to read. She is crying, and feeling very confused. She wants to, but doesn't want to feel bad for it. The opening is there now though, so even if we did not get the results I was hoping for, she will think about it."
Ginny tilted her head, "that must be a very nice leg up you both have with her."
Sirius groaned, "until she starts flirting with that Malfoy boy."
Ginny's eyes grew and she gasped, "she flirts with him?"
"Plenty and he is getting brazen now," Remus commented and Ginny blushed.
"How so?" The red head questioned and Sirius grimaced.
"He asked her to come alone tonight, show her a good time," Remus said with distaste.
"Oh, bloody hell, Moony, we are supposed to go over there tonight," Sirius growled.
Ginny giggled and shook her head, "one of you should, she might shag him to spite you. She does have a mean streak."
Remus nodded and sipped his tea, "Sirius will go," he declared and Sirius glared at him.
"What? You are coming too!"
Remus shook his head simply, "No, Padfoot. I will stay with my son and you will go to Malfoy's with her. Trust me?" He asked and Sirius snorted.
"Your last plan went so well," he snickered and Remus nodded.
"It will trust me. Hermione is a quick study. She will watch us now." Remus dismissed his doubts and Sirius rolled his eyes.
"Whatever you say, Moony," the animagus grumbled.
"Good boy," Remus teased with a smile.

Sirius appeared in Grimmauld at the beginning of the evening and found her asleep on the couch in the library. She had a picture in her hand and Sirius gingerly took it from her. It was the Christmas before he died and she was sitting next to Harry with Remus and Sirius over them. She was blushing like crazy when they ducked down to squeeze them and Sirius remembered smelling the sweetness of dessert still on her.
The picture could have easily been seen as merriment if they didn't know better. The small glance she made at them. That girl had a pretty substantial crush on them both, whether she admitted it or not. Now he felt like a real wanker. He was one of the blokes she brought back that she silently pined for.
He brushed aside a few of her curly locks from her face and she opened her eyes, "there is my favorite wanker," she said sleepily.
"How are you feeling?" He asked her and she smiled.
"Much better. Remus still over at Andromeda's?" She responded and Sirius nodded.
"Want me to run a bath for you, love?" He inquired and she giggled.
"When have you ever innocently ran someone a bath?"
He ran his fingers through her hair, "never, but they were never you."
Sirius felt her shock from that statement but her smile evolved, "good line, Padfoot."
"I try, love. I love this photograph, can I keep it?" He questioned and she blushed.
Hermione nodded and he ran his fingers to her cheek. "Sirius," she started and he kissed her forehead.
Hermione gingerly put her hand on his and closed her eyes, "I am sorry I was so upset." She said and he ran his thumb over her skin.
"You have a right to your own feelings. If it does bother you, neither of us will make an advance on you again, Hermione," the animagus declared and her eyes opened.
She bit her lip and he could feel her getting upset at that suggestion, "how come it doesn't bother you?"
Sirius exhaled heavily and sat down on the ground, "because Moony and I, we want you to be happy. If it means that you do not want us, we will stand back and let you do what you need to for happiness. If you want to bring home a different sod every night, we may be internally jealous, but it would be enough just to see you happy."
"You never made it to be either or. Why?" She asked, her eyes glinting in the fire light.
Sirius bit the inside of his cheek and pressed his forehead to hers, "because I love Moony and he loves me. We may not shag each other, or want to for that matter, but we love each other." He sighed and pulled away from her, "because I mend his wounds after a full moon and nurse him back to health. Because he holds me when I am so desperately sad from loss of time, life and the horrors of what I lived through. Because at the end of the day, if Moony was a woman, he would probably be my fucking wife, as disgusting as that sounds." He finished with a hardy laugh and Hermione wiped her tears away.
She climbed off the couch and into his lap, his knees pressed against her back. Hermione pulled him to her and they sat there, holding each other. She ran her hands through his hair and he buried his face in her neck. "This is the Sirius I adore most. I adore the wanker, but I am truly fond of this one." He could feel it come off of her in waves.
The animagus pulled away and she kissed him, softly and with tenderness. Her hands ran over his neck and he raked her in closer. It was passionate, but not the stuff he was used to. Sirius was used to women just wanting a good time because that's all they were; a good time. She was a melody that played in his head over and over, changing a bit every time.
His knees parted a bit to give her a little more comfort because he could feel the ache she had in her legs. The witch relaxed her hips and her core ran over his length, stopping her. Hermione pulled away panting and rolled her hips making him grunt. "Love, you are going to torture me?" He fussed and she smiled lightly.
"Maybe a little, but I promise I will make it up to you," she spoke with a sultry voice that made him throb.
Climbing off of him, she pulled off her shirt and pointed to the couch, "unbutton your pants and sit," she ordered and he smiled and obeyed.
Hermione turned into a smooth and feline being before him as she slunk to her knees. It was graceful and breathtaking when she crawled up to him just enough to slide one of her hands into his trousers and pull him out to her view. Her eyes grew and a wide smile appeared, "so this is what the witches always talk about, Sirius Black? I have to say I am impressed."
He chuckled and raised an eyebrow, "impressed enough to shag it?" He asked and she waved a finger at him.
"Not tonight, Padfoot. Tonight, I am going to give you a reason to dream about me." It was a smooth delivery and he was hooked.
Her mouth ran across the length of him and her breath was stimulating and a tease. When she repeated it with her tongue slowly he twitched and she giggled. "Nice and slow, love. I want you to watch me." She purred and he huffed.
"Hermione, you are killing me," He breathed and she smiled and repeated running her tongue on him and not breaking eye contact.
This was the most intimate thing he had ever done and she was absolutely a temptress. There was no way he was brought back to life, he just got thrown into fantasies, he was sure of it. She wrapped her lips around him and he moaned loudly. One of her hands reached across his leg and scratched the fabric of his pants as she sounded her pleasure.
The animagus was completely at her mercy and she captivated him with her lusty triumph every time he moaned for her. His hands were in her hair and her eyes were beautiful seducing orbs. Sirius did not grab to take control of her, he wanted her to have her way with him. The swirling tongue. The hand running against the rest of him in between his legs. The sweet heat from her mouth and the vibration of it as she sighed in pleasure with him.
He wasn't sure how long he had her there, her jaw ached but she processed with a mastery he wasn't sure he had ever seen. When she would come up for air, she would run her hands over him, tease him and torment the very line of his climax.
"Hermione, please, love. I am in need of some relief. You absolutely a goddess..." His voice was breathy which ended with a guttural moan and she took him again with a smile.
It was rougher this time, harder suction and deeper. She saw it in his eyes before he peaked and she moaned gently at the conclusion which was powerful and coated the back of her throat. His voice was ragged with panting and growls of satisfaction. Hermione did not pull away until she was sure he had finished completely and sat on the ground in front of him as he lounged in euphoria.
"Merlin, witch, that was... absolutely incredible." He huffed and rubbed his chest.
Hermione's smile was award worthy. She had just made Sirius Black sincerely beg for her; that was something to be proud of in her opinion. "Do you have to feel so smug about it?" He asked with a chuckle and she nodded.
The animagus waved at her to climb up to him and he resituated himself back in his pants. She crawled on his lap and straddled him. "Was it good enough for you, Sirius?"
"That was the best bloody thing I have felt in my life," he declared and she grinned impishly.
He ran a thumb over her cheek and she leaned in to kiss him. Sirius was now going to return the favor. Or he thought he was going... "We are home!" Remus shouted loudly.
Hermione hopped off of him, placing on her abandoned shirt and smiled, "another time," she purred and sashayed from the room.
The witch met them in the entrance hall and the boy ran to her. "Hermione!" He shouted gleefully and she grabbed him in a giant hug.
"My Teddy Bear! I- have- missed- you!" She shouted through kisses.
"I have really missed you!" He cried, his hair a tint of pink.
"Are you ready for two weeks of living together?" She asked him and he nodded.
"Where is Uncle Sirius?" The boy asked and the animagus walked behind the witch.
"Right here, Teddy boy. Want me to show you your room?" he asked and Hermione let him go.
"Of course!" The boy followed the animagus up the stairs.
He glanced back and Hermione waved with a mischievous smile. "So, did you had fun with Padfoot?" Remus whispered in her ear.
Turning to him she kept her smirk, "loads. Hope it wasn't too distracting for you." She declared and he chuckled.
"It was extremely distracting. You feel quite superior with what you did. He must have really loved it." Remus teased and she nodded.
He moved to pull away and she sighed, "Remus," her voice was unsure.
The werewolf could feel her uncertainty. "You want to just see what being with one of us is like?" He asked her and she frowned.
"No, why?" Her eyes were furrowed and her lips quivered slightly.
"Oh, no, Hermione. I didn't mean because of lack of interest on my part. I also know how difficult it is to handle us both. It isn't fair to ask you to do that. I am a bit of second best to that wanker as it stands," he chuckled it off and she could tell he was hurt.
"Moony, you are never second best." She told him and his eyes glinted at her. "You are like my favorite book, I never want to put it down." She admitted and gazed at the floor.
"I- Hermione- that," he stuttered and ran a hand over her cheek.
Remus pulled his hand away and cleared his throat, "A conversation to be continued, my son is coming back down."
Hermione turned to the boy who hopped off the last few stairs. "I took the bedroom right next to my dad's," he told her and she smiled.
"Very lovely, shall we go fix up something sweet?" She asked him and his eyes grew.
"Please?" He asked her and she nodded.
"We will meet you both in the kitchen," Remus told them as Sirius go down the stairs.
The werewolf grinned and raised an eyebrow, "what happened, she was so victorious and randy I wasn't sure I could cope."
The animagus opened his mouth in shock and shook his head, "Moony, she made me feel like a school boy begging for sweets. Those lips. That tongue... her eyes. Bloody hell, I am hooked hard."
Remus chuckled, "I look forward to it." Sirius patted his shoulder and sighed.
"You will be destroyed, Moony. She ruined me for any other witch and that is without shagging her." The animagus grumbled and pressed his forehead to the werewolf's shoulder. "you stopped me from returning the favor."
"You will have your chance, give it time, Pads." the werewolf said with a glimmer in his eyes and the animagus pulled away and chuckled.
"If you blew me like that, we would be set," Sirius teased and the werewolf shook his head.
"I believe I am next, Padfoot." He grumbled and the animagus grinned and gave him a nod.
"In time, Moony, all in time."
