Written for Duelling Club Challenge - Prompt Used: Broomstick Cupboard.

Occupied

Sirius stifled his laugh as he pulled Remus down the corridor, the footsteps echoing behind them. They were close to the portrait now and they'd be safe once inside. Sirius was certain that the Slytherin prefects were out to get them.

They both came to a stop at the sound of footsteps in front of them and Remus looked around urgently. Sirius rolled his eyes. Getting caught wasn't the end of the world, though Remus acted like it was. He was a prefect that took things like curfew very seriously. Though Sirius found it pretty easy to convince him to sneak out to fool around in various places around the castle.

"Here," Remus whispered, pointing at a nearby door. "This one!"

Sirius didn't want Remus to be upset at getting caught so he quickly pointed his wand at the door. "Alohomora," he whispered and the lock clicked open.

Sirius pulled the door open and slipped inside, Remus coming in behind him and closing the door. He turned, suddenly realising that the cupboard used for storing old broomsticks was rather small.

And occupied.

"We're studying!" James said, hastily doing up his shirt buttons. "We were… flying lessons. We were picking brooms."

"With your shirt undone?" Remus asked, raising his eyebrows whilst Sirius stared at the pair in horror.

"It's very hot in the castle tonight," James replied. "So… what brings you two… here? You going back to the dorms at all?"

Remus nodded his head. "Once the hallway is clear."

"That's my brother," Sirius blurted out, his shaking hand reaching up and pointing towards Regulus who was casually fixing his own clothes. "James. That's my brother!"

"Sirius, it's okay," Remus said softly. "This means James will be out of the dorm room more often and we'll have privacy. After all, Peter now knows how to get into the kitchens... "

"But it's my brother," Sirius repeated, wide eyes turning to Remus. "Why is my brother in here with James? What's going on? They better not be having sex!"

"So what if we are?" Regulus asked, folding his arms and trying to stare down Sirius.

Sirius let out a roar and dived for James and Remus sighed.

The door swung open and Professor McGonagall looked between Remus and Regulus, before her gaze moved to James and Sirius on the floor.

"Good evening, Professor McGonagall," Remus said loudly, trying to draw Sirius' attention.

"Just the lady I needed to see. James has deflowered my little brother. He needs to be expelled!"

Professor McGonagall silently watched them for a few seconds before closing the door and walking away.

Remus was certain he heard her mumble something about not getting paid enough, as she left. "They'll be here a while," he said, turning his attention back to Regulus.

Regulus nodded his head. "We've really lucked out with these two," he said sarcastically. "Tea?"

Remus picked up James' cloak from the floor and nodded at Regulus. "Let's go."
