~:~You Know, I Now Hate Holidays~:~
"Remmie!,"a female voice squealed, rising an octave when it hit the second syllable.
Sirius and Harry had to cover their ears. They winced as that high pitched yell rang through their ears.
However, Remus just stood there, looking as if it were nothing new at all.
Putting on what Harry and Sirius could tell was an act, Remus put on a smile.
"Yes, Mummy, your pride and joy is home!,"he called, smirking at the title he gave himself.
A dark haired woman came to the door, pulling Remus in and closing the door behind him.
"Oh, Remus!,"she squealed again,"It's so wonderful to see you!"
Within half a second, Remus was enveloped in his mothers arms, feeling like he was merely ten again, instead of a few years shy of fourty.
"Mum,"he wheezed, his face turning colors,"Please, let go. Need air."
As his mother let go, Remus inhaled deeply and opened the door, revealing a very frosted and shivering Harry and a rather purterbed Sirius.
"Aw, who is this adorable boy?,"Mrs. Lupin questioned, her eyes on Harry,"Did you and Black already start a family? Is he adopted? Or is he biological? What's-"
"No, mum,"Remus deadpanned,"This is Harry potter, Sirius' godson."
In another repeat of Remus' entrance, Mrs. Lupin pulled Harry in and, again, slammed the door closed, observing Harry.
"Oh, my!,"she began,"I never thought I'd get to meet you, Mister Potter! You're so small and skinny! What does that godfather of yours feed you? How old are you?"
"Fifteen, ma'am,"Harry answered, his face flushing.
Mrs. Lupin instantly wrapped Harry in a hug.
"Well, Harry, I'll be sure to put some meat on your bones before you leave this place. I promise you that,"she said, a glint in her eyes.
Harry was instantly a bit scared.
"And YOU Remus!,"Mrs. Lupin exclaimed,"If Harry is skinny, then you are a twig! Is it the full moons, honey? Do you eat well?"
Remus face was now a tomato red color that Harry was sure he'd only seen on Ron's head.
"Muuuuum,"Remus whined,"Stop it, that's embarrassing. I'm not a baby."
"Maybe not, but you'll always be MY baby. Now, why don't you and Harry go and sit down in the kitchen. It's still early and I was just preparing breakfast."
As the color faded from Remus' face and his mother walked away, Harry opened the door to find Sirius there, shivering and sitting on one of the suitcases that the three had carried along.
"Sirius,"Remus began,"I warned you. Just remember that, I warned you."
~/~In the Kitchen~/~
Sirius, still cold, was sipping on some of the tea that Mrs. Lupin made for him, although it was not done out of total kindness. Remus had to argue with her for about ten minutes before she agreed.
"So, Remus,"Mrs. Lupin began again,"How have you been? Any new jobs? How's Albus?"
"Albus is fine,"Remus answered, grabbing a tree shaped cookie from the plate in front of him,"He gave me a teaching job at Hogwarts again. It's very pleasant."
Harry watched in amusement as Remus avoided his mother's eyes. Mrs. Lupin would ask a question about Remus well being and such, and Remus would merely chew on the same cookie that he'd had in his hands for the last ten minutes, his eyes on the floor.
Sirius was still drinking the tea in his hands, his eyes shifting from his lover, to his godson, to the floor, and back to the starting point to begin the process again.
"What does Black...I mean SIRIUS do?,"Mrs. Lupin asked.
"He's teaching Charms at Hogwarts. Fillius had an accident over the summer, so he's filling in for the year,"Remus replied.
No one even noticed that someone had entered the room.
Until...
"Remmie!,"came a male voice.
"Wha-Eep! Put me down, Jay! I mean it! Put me-Ah! That tickles! Nooo!"
Sirius and Harry laughed as Remus was picked up and tickled by who they assumed to be his older brother, Jason.
"Jason, put your brother down,"came a strict male voice.
The two siblings turned to see their father, Jaques, entered the room.
"Aw, come one, Dad,"Jason whined playfully,"I've just giving my baby brother a playful hello."
Jaques eyed his two sons and nodded.
"Proceed,"he ordered playfully.
Jason continued to tickled Remus.
"Noooo,"Remus whined, laughter taking over his words,"Daddy!Heeelp! Hehehehhe. Jason stop it-Ah. That's not-eheheheh-STOP IT!"
Harry was sent into a fit of giggles, along with Sirius, as the two sibling played together, looking to be more like teens than the adults they were.
"Hey, what's with all the laughing?,"came a female voice,"Is that Remus I hear laughing?"
Another brown haired person entered the room.
"Amy, help!,"Remus begged,"Cant-ahahaha!-take tickling-ahahaha!-much longer!"
Jason sent his sister a look that simply said "Don't you dare".
Amy, knowing that her older brother would get her back later if she helped Remus, sat down and grabbed a cookie, watching the scene.
"Siiiirrriii,"Remus whined,"heeeeelp!"
Remus didn't get to say more as he dissolved into a fit of uncontrollable giggles.
Sirius would have helped, if two other brown haired people hadn't rounded on him.
"So, you're Sirius Black, eh?,"the female asked, her eyes glittering and her head cocked to the side,"Remmie's lover?"
Sirius nodded, afraid that she might do something.
"I'm Jamie!,"she chirped,"and this is my twin, David."
She pointed to the man standing behind Sirius, that looked to be a male version of herself, only with more height.
Sirius smiled nervously.
"umm...hi."
"Who's the kid?,"David asked,"Did you and Remmie do the 'Bad Thing'?"
Sirius blushed, stuttering while he tried to answer.
"I'm Harry. Harry Potter,"Harry said nervosuly,"Sirius is my godfather."
"Hi Harry!,"Jamie chirped again, enveloping Harry in a hug.
Jason had finally quit tickling Remus, now out of breath and satisfied with his handy work.
Remus sat in his chair, in a huff. His hair had been pulled out of its previous neat ponytail. His clothes were ruffled, and his face was red due to all his laughter.
"Thanks alot, Jay,"he mumbled, fixing his robes.
"So, this is Sirius?,"Jason and Amy asked in unison, staring at the black haired man in front of them.
"Have we met before?,"Amy asked.
Sirius nodded sheepishly.
"Remus had invited me over for the summer in our fifth year at Hogwarts. I think I met you,"he replied.
Amy nodded.
"Oh yeah! I remember you!...You sure have grown,"she purred, eyeballing him up and down.
"Lay off, Amy,"a new voice said,"He's Remus', not yours. You're already married."
Remus turned to the doorway to see his favorite sibling, Bonnie.
"Thank you, Bonnie,"Remus said cutely, scowling at Amy.
"What?,"Amy asked innocently,"I was just making a general observation."
Sirius, Harry, and the rest of the Lupins watched as Amy and Remus exchanged banter for a few minutes.
"Wolfboy."
"Slut."
"Arse."
"Bitch."
"...Flegger!"
"What the hell's a flegger?"
"I don't know...but it's what you are!"
"Whore!"
"Err...Damnit!"
Remus smirked in triumph.
"I always win, you should know not to compete by now."
Amy scowled and stalked off.
"Moving right along....,"Bonnie began,"How's my favorite baby brother?"
"I'm your only baby brother, Bonnie,"Remus replied, hugging his older sister tightly.
"So, Sirius,"David asked,"Are you and Remus having fun being together again?"
"David,"Remus snapped,"Please don't start that."
"We're just looking out for you,"Jason said, pulling his brother into a hug,"Wouldn't want our baby brother to end up heartbroken and alone."
'This Christmas will be fun,'Harry thought, smirking.
'I'm in trouble now,'Sirius thought, Mrs. Lupin's eyes on him.
'This is going to be the longest Christmas ever,'Remus thought, his siblings attacking him again, sending him into another fit of giggles.
