A Tight Fit

"You're in my way," Sirius complained, trying to shuffle down into the bed a little more so his head wasn't hanging over the top of the pillow awkwardly. "Shift over a bit, would you?"

"If I shift over any more, I'm going to end up on the floor, and that's not a thing I'm interested in doing in all honesty," Remus replied dryly, though he did try and shift back a little bit.

"I told you this wasn't going to work," James muttered. "We could just take it in turns like I already suggested and then—"

"No," Sirius growled. "I want to sleep with both of my boyfriends, not have one left alone in the cold!"

James huffed, but moved over just enough that Sirius could shuffle down so he was in between them.

"This is not comfortable," Remus muttered, a few minutes later. He was literally gripping the mattress to make sure he didn't fall off the edge of the bed. "Sirius… three people are not meant to sleep in a single bed."

"Well, maybe if you let me just sleep on top of you both like I suggested—"

"Not happening," James grumbled. "Do you remember the last time you did that? I had muscle ache in muscles I didn't even know I had for days after, and bruises everywhere because of your bloody elbows."

"Alright, alright," Sirius muttered, pouting.

James sighed and pressed a kiss to his head. "I don't mind sleeping in my own bed, you know? It's really not a problem. I won't think that you love Remus more than me or anything and at least that way, we'd all get some sleep."

Sirius shook his head. "No. I don't… I just want you both in reaching distance. The summer was too long and I missed you. Both of you."

Remus let go of the mattress with one hand to wrap it around Sirius, holding him against his chest. "We all missed each other, babe, but… you've gotta admit, this is just asking for trouble."

"Uh? Guys? What are you doing?"

Three heads popped up from beneath the single quilt to look at Peter. "We're attempting to talk some sense into Sirius about this horrible sleeping arrangement," James replied, rolling his eyes.

Peter frowned. "Why… why don't you just push two of the beds together and put a blanket over the join?"

Silence reigned for a moment and then Sirius started laughing. "Or we could just do what wormy suggested and use our actual brains."

James huffed and shifted back until he was on the floor, then stood up. "We're a bunch of dumbasses, obviously."

Sirius got up to help James push his bed upto Sirius'. Remus lay in the bed with his hands over his face.

"Moony? You okay?" James asked, huffing with the exertion of moving the bed. The four poster was heavier than it looked.

"I'm supposed to be the smart one," Remus complained.

"Don't worry, Moony," Sirius comforted. "Maybe you just didn't have enough chocolate today. We'll get you some more tomorrow."

They quickly arranged the blankets and before long, the three of them were twined around one another. Sirius sighed happily.

"Love you," he murmured.

James pressed a kiss to his temple. "Love you."

Remus echoed it a moment later, already half asleep. This was perfect.
