Sirius stared at them with wide eyes. "If you love me, you will take that off of him right now."
Hermione raised her eyes while Remus covered his mouth, stifling the laugh that wanted to bubble out of him. "Excuse me?"
"My son is wearing a pink onesie. Take it off of him," he ordered.
Hermione rolled her eyes. "First of all, Sirius, it's designed for baby boys. Second of all, I'm surprised at you. I would have respected that kind of reaction from Ron but not you. You should be ashamed of yourself."
Remus decided it might be time to step in and mediate because it looked as if Sirius's head might literally explode. "Padfoot, it's not a big deal. I was there when she asked the saleslady—"
"Wait!" Sirius interrupted. "You were there!? And you allowed her to get it!?"
Remus narrowed his eyes, no longer finding the situation funny. In fact, he was starting to get angry on Hermione's behalf. "Yes, I was there, and don't say 'let her.' She is her own person, and she has her own mind."
Hermione nodded. "Thank you, Remus."
Remus nodded to Hermione, but he kept his eyes on Sirius. "And like I was saying, the saleslady assured us that it was a boy's onesie despite the color."
Hermione bounced Reggie slightly as his eyes fluttered open. Sirius's boisterous response woke him from his nap. "And look." She moved her son slightly, so his back showed to Sirius. A blue lion was on the back, it's mouth open as if it was roaring. "I saw the lion, and I thought of you."
Sirius tilted his head and examined it. "Well, the lion does make it a little better, but I still don't like the idea of my son wearing pink."
Hermione looked at Remus, and the two of them had a silent conversation.
Remus licked his lips. "Well, once Reggie is put to bed for the night, I'm sure Hermione and I can work together to convince you there's nothing wrong with boys wearing pink," Remus uttered with a look in his eyes that Sirius was all-too-familiar with.
Suddenly, Reggie in pink didn't bother him nearly as much. "I'll look forward to it."
