Sirius

Sirius burst out laughing, too hard to properly return Remus's kiss. He had nearly forgotten that part, or tried to. He remembered the hair, oh yes, did he, but he hadn't thought of it in a long while.
Sirius flipped his long hair and reined in his amusement, though only barely. A giggle (and it was most definitely a giggle, though Sirius would hurt whoever said so) escaped his lips as he bent down and kissed Remus back, making up for missing out on the one before.

Sirius grinned down at him when they broke the kiss, his eyes heavy-lidded. "Let me get this straight, I'm the man with long silky hair and you're the girl with short coarse hair." He frowned for a minute, then shrugged and broke into another grin. "Well, how about that."

Remus

"I'm growing my hair!" Remus replied, pouting. "And... I just... have really bad hair..." he said plainly, looking at Sirius. "It doesn't matter either since we're both guys!" he finally said, giving a reluctant sigh. "Oh, who really cares?!"

With that, he grabbed Sirius and kissed him hard. Pulling away only slightly, he smiled. "It doesn't matter about looks... It doesn't matter about anything except us... right?"

Sirius

Sirius smiled at him and planted a kiss on his head. "Absolutely."

He grinned at Remus and nodded towards the cookies. "Are we just going to stand here snogging like mad and scaring house elves, or have we got biscuits to cut? Mmm, and decorate?" Sirius tossed a longing look at the cookies and back at Remus and pouted.

 Remus

Laughing, he kissed Sirius and then pulled away. "Yes, let's decorate and stop scaring these poor house elves... I'm sure they will be pleased once we stop..." he said with a smile as he turned on his heel to face the already cooled cookies.
"Rinny!" he called, as the house elf reluctantly walked over. "Y-yes?" she asked, stuttering, giving a glance at Remus and then at Sirius. "Rin... do you know where the frosting and sprinkles are?" he asked, smiling at the little house elf. Rinny nodded and hurried out of sight, but soon came back with a basket filled with supplies. "Here…" she said handing the basket to Remus and then running off back to work.

"Thanks..." he said, watching her disappear into the crowd of working house elves. Shrugging, he turned back to Sirius. "Let's decorate then!" he said cheerfully, putting the basket on the counter top.

Sirius

Sirius pouted as Remus pulled away, and sighed as he posed the question, one that never failed to annoy.

"Do I have to?" he whined and then caught a look at the cookies and supplies. His eyes widened as his mouth opened and he pretended to drool. "Yummy..." His dark eyes slanted over to Remus, who was already in full baking mode. "Even yummier," he said to himself with a grin, and decided to join Remus.

He walked over to the boy and kissed the back of his neck, then leaned over him to look down at the cookies. "Now what?"

Remus

"Well... you take the icing, then spread it along the cookie with a spoon... then sprinkle sprinkles on it..." he looked blankly at the countertop, having no real clue to what he was doing. Oh well, it would be fun anyway.

Taking a small tube that was filled with icing, he squeezed it slightly and the nozzle squirted out a light blue frosting. "This is going to be interesting..." he murmured, staring at the icing.

Sirius

Sirius raised his eyebrow up to his hairline. "You think?" he asked, surveying the blue frosting with some trepidation.
"Er, Moony? What flavor is that?" Sirius wondered, sniffing the air slightly. Some of these could be awfully horrible flavoring, especially since they had spiked Snivellus' food with those packets of Every Flavor Beans. They hadn't remembered where they had hid all the ingredients, like the icing they had placed on his cupcake. His face blanched.

Remus

Sniffing the icing, he thought for a second, before replying, "It smells normal… But I don't think it has a flavor other than sweet and no, I don't think it's the icing we had used on those cupcakes you're thinking of..." he said, with a slight smile. Looking at Sirius, it could be the only reason his face was that pale, unless he had something up his nose... But he doubted that was it.

Bringing his hand up, he let his finger wipe off the tip of the icing. "At least I hope it's not the icing we used..." he muttered before putting his finger in his mouth, tasting the icing. Pulling his finger out of his mouth, the blue icing gone, he waited a while and swallowed reluctantly. Sighing in relief, he looked at Sirius happily. "Nope, it's fine!"

Sirius

Sirius snapped his jaw shut, wiping the drool off his mouth, and refocused his eyes on Remus. "Hmm? Oh yes, the icing..."
He shook his head a little to clear it. Sirius clapped his hands together briskly and prepared to pounce on the decorations. He grinned as he saw a bag of Booble-Floober Coloring Gum, and proceeded to pick it up, empty the bag into his hands, and place them on the cookie at random, sometimes following Remus's lead, sometimes just going his own way.

Remus

"A giant cookie... Not what I had in mind but it works," he said while spreading the icing around the cookie cake. "I just hope it taste good..." he said with some concern. Looking back at Sirius, he smiled. "Thanks for helping."

With that he continued the decorating, not truly knowing what he was doing. The cookie cake probably would look a bit demented in the end, but that didn't truly matter at all.

Sirius

Sirius grinned. "It'll be excellent, Moony, stop worrying so much, it'll be perfect." Sirius snuck up behind Remus and tugged on one of his pigtails. He then hugged Remus from behind, burying his head in Remus's aromatic skin.
"You smell like cookies, Moony."

Remus

"I guess that's a good thing..." Remus said, smiling peacefully just from Sirius' being close to him. His eyes glanced down to the giant cookie cake and his smile grew larger as he closed his eyes contentedly. "It probably will taste good... But it wouldn't be me if I didn't worry..." he replied sheepishly, before opening his golden eyes once more and looked at the cake.
Sighing, he continued to try and decorate, not having the most artistic views on how to decorate something. Instead he just went into a design with the icing, trying his best to draw four animals along the cake's border; a dog, a wolf, a rat, and a stag... It was the only thing he could think of for now, and he smiled, continuing the design, not bothered by Sirius' embrace.

Sirius

Sirius grinned, planting another kiss on the back of Remus's neck. "Is that supposed to be a dog? Sort of looks like Padfoot, but it can't be, because that also looks like a cow, I think..." He peered down at the design teasingly, his dark hair falling over Remus's shoulder.

Remus

Remus elbowed Sirius, and glanced at the other boy out of the corner of his eye. Grinning wildly now, he quickly deformed the little blob that was supposed to be Padfoot, by adding little bunny eyes and a fluffy tail instead of a regular dog tail. "Now it is a bunny... thing," he said, tilting his head to the side at his awkward art. "It is a dog/cow/bunny creature."
Taking pride in this, he quickly added a pig's tail to Wormtail and a pig's nose instead of a rat's. This was becoming very amusing now...

Sirius

Sirius looked highly affronted. "Moony!" he admonished, "You know I'm scared of fluffy bunnies!"
He let this hang in the air for a few seconds as he bent again to inspect Remus's work. He chuckled at Remus's latest design.

"Peter the pig? Hmm, that has prankiful possibilities..." he trailed off, laughing as he watched Remus's work, resting his head on Moony's shoulder.

Remus

"You better not do anything, Sirius..." he chimed, gazing at the other boy with playful curiosity of what could possibly be conjuring up in that handsome head of his. Smiling weakly, he finished his artwork and smiled proudly at it. "Finished... Well, kind of."

The end work kept Sirius as a bunny/dog thing... Peter as a rat/pig, er, creature… and James was now a stag and cat hybrid-type thing... and Remus was a cross between a bird and a wolf. "Wait... one more thing..." he added, reaching over and picking up the pink icing. He quickly put pink on the bunny ears and fluffy tail that Padfoot so naturally had. "Now I'm done..."

Sirius

Sirius burst out laughing, his good-natured laughter echoing around the kitchens. He held his sides as he laughed. "And," he said loudly, between laughter, "have you always pictured me in pink fluffy bunny ears? Oh, and the tail, though I'm afraid all I can find in Hogsmeade along those lines are pink fluffy handcuffs..." He pretended to handcuff himself and held his arms away from his head, grinning at Remus.

"At your mercy, and all that, love."

Remus

Turning to look at Sirius, he only smiled and put on that oh-so-innocent look before noticing a piece of cake that was laid out on the counter. Grinning evilly, he grabbed the cake and smiled innocently before shoving it into Sirius' mouth. "Eat up, love..." he said before putting some frosting on his nose.

Sirius

Sirius' eyes crossed as he looked down his nose at the food protruding from it. He grinned up at Remus, and pulled him closer by his apron, and planted an icing-and-cake kiss on his love's mouth.

Mmm, but this was yummy.

Remus

Enjoying the sweeter than usual kiss, he pulled away only to lick the little bit of icing and cake off his lips. Looking at Sirius with slight humor and some curiosity, he put on his curious face. "Hmm… I thought you might get a little vengeful and try to... oh... I don't know... pay me back. Instead you rewarded me... How come, love?" he asked, tilting his head to the side with a cocky grin on his lips.

Sirius

Sirius grinned and shrugged. "Why not? This is just as fun..." his eyes traveled over Remus, and he laughed suddenly, giddy with sugar and love.

"Besides," he said, leaning down to plant a quick kiss on Remus's lips, "I can get you later..."

Remus

"Is that a threat?" Remus piped, grabbing Sirius' hair once more and pulling on it. It became a habit now to tug on the taller boy's hair, finding some amusement that it annoyed Sirius no matter what... Smiling, he reached up and pulled his hair out of the pigtails, letting the light hair fall about over his face.

Quickly pushing aside his bangs, he gave another warm smile to Sirius before taking off his own apron and folding it on his arm. "Well... I'm done... so what do you want to do?" he asked, looking over at the dark haired youth with slight curiosity and lust. Of course, he tried his best to act calm and natural, but his eyes gave away the fun in him.

Sirius

Sirius raised an eyebrow. "You. Are. Asking. Me. What. I. Want. To. Do. When you're standing there like that, and smelling like that and tasting like that..."

He grinned at Remus, looking over him hungrily. "Well, I suppose we could eat the cookies, but I'd rather do else, wouldn't you?" He didn't wait for an answer and instead leaned over to snog him again, passionately, entwining one hand with Remus's lovely, if slightly rough, hair.

Remus

Remus pulled away and gasped for breath, "Sirius... I would love to do... something else... but I believe that we should go to some place more... secluded... if you know what I mean..." he said lovingly, wrapping his arms around the other boy's neck.

Sirius

Sirius grinned at him, looking down at him with only slightly shortened breath giving him away. He lowered his face again to plant another on Remus's lips, then grinned through it.

"You know," he murmured, his eyes closed and lips against Remus's, "that we are going to scar the house elves if we stay here any longer..." Sirius laughed a little and grinned through the kiss, "I suppose we'd better head to the Room of Requirement, don't you? We certainly, desperately, need it now, and it is most accommodating, unless you prefer another place? The Shack, perhaps?"

He glanced around, his dark eyes half-closed, and his mouth in a slow curling smile. "We'd better go before I do something we'll both regret, and hey, if we leave now, we stand a chance of not getting caught shagging in the halls!"

Remus

"I would prefer the Room of Requirement, due to the fact that the shack is a little… torn… and plus we won't have Peter to help with the Whomping Willow..." he murmured, frowning slightly at the thought that he always had to think things through with detail. Still, he didn't care and quickly looked at Sirius, at his little comment.

Laughing softly, he grinned and looked at the dark-haired boy. "But first... I believe you should do something about that pink apron of yours, love..." he said, eyeing the pink apron with distaste. Letting his arms wrap around Sirius' waist, he undid the bow that held the apron on him and then brought his hands up to remove the fabric that wrapped behind his neck, which was the last piece that held the girlish apron on him. Quickly pulling it off the boy, he tossed it aside and planted a quick kiss on Sirius' lips. "Much better..."

Sirius

Sirius adopted a hurt _expression. "You didn't like the pink apron, love? I'm wounded, I am." Sirius placed his hands over his heart and reeled back, feigning hurt. He pretended to die, dramatically, gasping and moaning pathetically.
He laid still, his breath stilled. Sirius waited a moment before opening an eye to look up at Moony. He grinned from his position on the floor and stood up with a broad smile.

"Not bad, eh? I could have been a brilliant actor, you know," he said, polishing his nails on his shirt.
He looked up at Moony and kissed him again. Sirius leaned in close and spoke in his ear in a low, deep tone, "Want me to carry you, love? It'll get us there all the faster..."

Remus

Remus clapped at Sirius' dramatic, yet very funny, act of dying. A large smile was on his face as he watched him pretend. "It was brilliant!" he replied eagerly with a smile, shifting his weight over onto one foot as he looked at the dark-haired boy.
"I wouldn't mind if you carried me..." he murmured, wrapping his arms around the other boy, "though how would it get us there faster, love?" he asked, looking at him with curiosity.

Sirius

Sirius grinned at him. "Depends. How much of that cookie-thing did you eat?" He winked and hoisted Remus up, grinning down at him. "Oof, maybe too much. Never fear, I'll be brave and strong and carry you all the way to the Room of Requirement, love," he said, balancing the weight in his arms.

"Oh, and would you rather piggyback? I can be quite accommodating, you'll find..."

Remus

"Um... piggyback!" he said in glee, grinning at Sirius. He wasn't going to say why though, of course it would be easier on Sirius, and also another reason would be that it was much easier to annoy the boy...
Smiling, he looked at Sirius and poked him gently. "And I didn't eat any of the 'cookie-thing', love."

Quickly, he pointed to the cookie-cake, which was still in its entirety. "I only had a bit of icing... and I don't weigh that much!" he said, looking up at Sirius with a pout.

Sirius

Sirius shook his head and laughed loudly as he walked off through the kitchens, his tones of joy ringing through the bustle. He cleaved his way through the waist-high traffic of house elves, and disappeared through the painting of fruit with a last comment.

"See? You can have your cake and eat it!"
