Chapter 4

Remus stared at her. "You what?" He asked, a sinking feeling in his stomach.

"I have to pee." Tonks said, surprisingly cheerful for such a dreaded statement.

"This is not going to be pleasant." Remus muttered as they got up from the table and headed upstairs.

Five minutes later Sirius Black was walking down a hall in Grimmauld Place when he happened upon a rather amusing sight. His best friend of many years was sitting on the musty rug, a scowl evident on his face and his hand being slightly squashed in the door next to him.

"And what predicament have we gotten ourselves into now?" Sirius asked gleefully.

If it was possible Remus scowled even more. "Your dearest cousin needed to use the loo." He said stiffly. Sirius grinned. He really hadn't thought about that, and now the concept was too hilarious, this was better then almost any of the pranks he had ever played in school. Heh, this was going to be a good week.

"Well tell my dearest cousin not to peek when you guys decide to shower," Sirius said lightly, walking away. He turned to wave and was able to glimpse Remus' look of pure horror. Oh yes, this was going to be a great week.

Remus sighed. "Are you done yet?"

"Not quite."

"What can possibly be taking you so long?"

"Try zipping up your jeans with one hand!"

"Oh."

Awkward silence.

"Would you like help?"

"As a matter of fact, that would be lovely!" Tonks said a bit irritably. To think she'd thought that he was a gentleman. Bah.

"All right. I'm coming in. Would you like me to avert my eyes?"

"From what? It's not like I've got my knickers down. Unless you'd like to help me with those, too?"

Agh. Stupid technicalities. Remus opened the door and entered the realms of ugly brown tile. He vaguely wondered if that ghoul was still in the toilet. There had been a very interesting incident a number of years ago when he'd discovered said ghoul. His bunny slippers had never been the same….

"Why are you giving me that look?" Tonks asked.

"Oh, no reason." He glanced down. "Cherries? On your knickers?"

"Hey, they were cute!"

"Tonks, is there a subtle message here?"

"I assure you, they've all been popped!" Tonks said rather triumphantly. Enter: Awkward Silence II. "I never said that."

"Right then," Remus said with a bit of a blush. "Shall we get your pants back up?"

"Only if you want them up," Tonks said sneakily.

"Turn around." But you don't want them up, a little voice said in the back of his mind. Don't be an idiot. Help her with the bloody zipper, said the voice in the front of his mind. But you really don't want them up, the voice persisted. Shut up, the other slightly more sensible voice said. The first voice said nothing, but telepathically whispered you're lame.

Shoving both of the voices out of his head, Remus turned his attention to the buggering problem attached to his hands. Blue jeans. What asshole invented them? And why would they make them so difficult to put on? Was this some sort of sex message marketed throughout the Muggle world?

"All right. You grab that side." Tonks complied, gripped a belt loop, and tugged up. "Gah, this isn't working." Remus said irritably trying to fiddle with the button. "Okay, Tonks face me." She turned around to face him.

"If we weren't glued together I'd say that this situation is extremely sexy." Tonks stated matter-of-factly.

"Thank you Nymphadora for stating the obvious, yet again." He said attempting to sound pissed off despite the smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.

"You're laughing."

"Am not."

"Are so."

"Am not."

"So are."

"Bugger off."

"OHH! Naughty Professor. I might have to give you detention for swearing!"

Remus grinned pulling her closer and zipping up her jeans with ease. "I can be a lot naughtier then that Nymphadora." He said with a wry grin.

"Oh really Professor, by the way, its TONKS!" she said poking him in the ribs. He giggled. A wicked grin spread across her face. "Is our dear Professor ticklish?" Remus stared. Fuck there goes your last defense. The voice returned with relish. Remus groaned.

"Of course not." He said, trying to keep a straight face.

Tonks' wicked grin was still plastered on her face. "Sure, Professor." She grabbed his nose and pulled him across the hall into the study. "I wonder where else he's ticklish?" She continued.

"Tonks, please don't!" Remus begged.

"You wish." She giggled. She started by poking him again. And for a second time he contorted in bouts of laughter. "Does wolfie have a ticklish tummy?"

"Agh, NOOO!"

"You know," Sirius said somewhere in the depths of his mother's bedroom, "I find the nose to be the least sexy part of the human body."

Buckbeak, his steadfast companion, sighed as well as a hippogriff can. His charming master had still neglected to feed him, and sexy or not, he was about ready to eat his nose.

"Yes, I knew you would agree," Sirius said lazily. "But, you know, there are exceptions. I mean, there isn't exactly much to be said about the toenails."

Buckbeak wondered how long it would take him to kill himself by running into the wall.

Meanwhile…

"No not there please Tonks, NOOO!"

Sirius sat up at the cry, "Hmm… already? Wow that was fast, must see this." And with that he hopped out of the room, which still contained his hungry companion and went off to examine the sex life of his best friend and cousin.

"GOD TONKS PLEASE DON'T! STOP STOP! NO NOT THERE! GAH!"

"NEVER! HOW ABOUT HERE? IS THIS THE SPOT!"

"NOOOOO!"

By now Sirius was sprinting, he HAD to see this. He came skidding into the study to see…. Remus writhing in agony as Tonks tickled him mercilessly.

"Thank god! SIRUS! MAKE HER STOP!"

Sirius grinned. So it wasn't as far as he had thought but it was a start. "Make her stop yourself, she's ticklish too you know."

Remus sat bolt upright. "WHAT?" He grinned and tickled Tonks back. Now she was at HIS mercy. Heh.

"FUCK YOU SIRIUS!" She screamed through giggles.

"Later cous." He said walking out of the room, to confide this latest information in his ever reliable, ever hungry, Buckbeak.
