Sirius paced the floor of the study, running his fingers through his already mussed black hair in an attempt to calm down. He glanced at one of the few pieces of furniture in the library-like room, a large Victorian styled chair covered in tasteful plum velvet, unintentionally making eye contact with the blue-eyed baby who cooed at him from her nest of blankets that he had situated in the plush seat. What was he supposed to do with a baby? He was only twenty-two damn it! Sirius shot a glare at the source of what he was sure would be many grey hairs. And so he paced, waiting for his help to walk through the fireplace.
"Tch. He's sure taking his sweet time" Sirius grumbled to himself.
Flames flared emerald and not long after, a lone figure entered the study. Dressed in a faded green jumper and slacks, Remus Lupin eyed his best friend. Tired green eyes met with grey.
"What in the name of Merlin was so important that yo-" Lupin spotted the bundle of blankets and stopped mid-sentence, he also happened to see what was in said blankets.
"Sirius, is that a baby?" the tone used was far from questioning but was instead more a mixture of horror and shock. Sirius Black glanced at the chair before fixing Remus with a blank stare, "Why no Moony, that there is just my new pet cat, OF COURSE IT'S A BABY!" his shouting caused the child lying in the seat to start crying.
"Great. It's crying." Sirius looked at his friend, "Please tell me you know what to do."
Lupin was startled at the assumption "Sirius, I am an only child, I've never been good with children, and you expect me to know what to do…" he sighed before walking over to the infant, "By all means, this should be you. You did have a younger brother, surely you have more experience than me with young children."
Tentatively Remus picked up the blue-eyed babe. Immediately the crying stopped as the baby regarded him curiously before giving a happy gurgle.
"Be careful of the head" Sirius spoke from behind him, grinning sheepishly when Remus turned his head to glare at him "That's what mother would say when Regulus was born anyway"
"You called it an 'it', Sirius, do even know what to call it?"
"Umm, no?"
