Must he wear nothing BUT the leather trousers?<\/i><\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;Was,&#8221; Sirius grunted, muscles flexing in his shoulders as he tightened some bit or other on the front wheel. &#8220;Punctured a tire on the hill, had to turn around, then I got grease on the shirt, and anyway it&#8217;s too late now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;It isn&#8217;t that late,&#8221; Remus&#8217; mouth felt dry and distantly he recognized that he should try to stem the tide of babbling a leather-clad, shirtless Sirius doing manual labor was sure to invoke, &#8220;if you still want to go, you could use your broom you know, or I could go with you if you wanted, or if you wanted to go alone that&#8217;s fine, I could take you\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;Moony,&#8221; Sirius looked bemused as he gazed up from under the dark hair slipping out of his ponytail and into his eyes, &#8220;I can&#8217;t go out tonight. I haven&#8217;t got a stitch to wear!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\tRemus rolled his eyes as Sirius gestured gravely at the stained shirt, crumpled into a ball beside him. <\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;It&#8217;s only one shirt!&#8221; he protested. &#8220;You&#8217;ve dozens of them!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;But it&#8217;s the shirt that goes with these trousers!&#8221; Sirius informed him, picking up a rag and wiping off his hands. &#8220;It&#8217;s an ensemble! Could you throw a leg over her, hold her up while I make sure everything&#8217;s tightened evenly?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;Sirius,&#8221; Remus gave a little internal whimper as he obediently put a leg over the bike and settled into the sinfully slick leather seat, &#8220;why don&#8217;t you just wear different trousers then?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;Why ponder life&#8217;s complexities,&#8221; Sirius&#8217; voice was far too close to Remus&#8217; ear, and Remus stiffened when Sirius slid in behind him, pressing close against his back, &#8220;when the leather runs smooth on the passenger seat?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;Wha\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6&#8221; the squeak of leather on leather as Sirius shifted made Remus cut off and swallow hard. His ability to speak fled totally when warm hands slid around his waist. <\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;You don&#8217;t know anything about fashion,&#8221; Sirius murmured into Remus&#8217; ear, &#8220;you jumped-up pantry boy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;What in the world,&#8221; Remus&#8217; sense of the ridiculous briefly restored Remus&#8217; speech, &#8220;is a pantry boy? And why are you talking like a bad novel for housewives?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\tNot bothering to dignify such niggling questions with a response, Sirius distracted Remus by running his fingers under the tails of his shirt, across the smooth skin above Remus&#8217; waistband. <\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;Moony?&#8221; Remus could barely believe it, but Sirius actually sounded uncertain. Remus leaned back into the heat enveloping his back. <\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;Don&#8217;t stop,&#8221; he ordered, and Sirius was happy to oblige, undoing Remus&#8217; trousers and slipping a hand inside to stroke him to hardness, not that Remus needed much encouragement. He managed a strangled, &#8220;should move.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;Like you right here,&#8221; Sirius whispered, making him shiver.<\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;Stain your seats\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\tThat was all it took to convince Sirius a strategic move to a bed was prudent, and besides, there was no way Remus could have got Sirius writhing and pleading underneath him while straddling a motorbike. <\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;We could still go out,&#8221; Remus offered when they were both sprawled on their backs catching their breath.<\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;I would go out tonight,&#8221; Sirius said reflectively, &#8220;but here I haven&#8217;t got to wear a stitch.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\tThere was a moment of silence while Remus took that in before Sirius began to snicker at his own cleverness. <\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;Such a charming man,&#8221; Remus sighed long-sufferingly.<\/p>\n<div class='wp_likes' id='wp_likes_post-1003'><a class='like' href=\"javascript:wp_likes.like(1003);\" title='Like' ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kira-kira.net\/fanfiction\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-likes\/images\/like.png\" alt='' border='0'\/><\/a><span class='text'>1 person likes this post.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class='like' ><a href=\"javascript:wp_likes.like(1003);\">Like<\/a><\/div>\n<div class='unlike' ><a href=\"javascript:wp_likes.unlike(1003);\">Unlike<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why ponder life&#8217;s complexities when the leather runs smooth on the passenger seat?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[50],"tags":[161,84],"class_list":["post-1003","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-harrypotter","tag-hp-remussirius","tag-rating-pg-13"],"blog_post_layout_featured_media_urls":{"thumbnail":"","full":""},"categories_names":{"50":{"name":"Harry Potter","link":"http:\/\/www.kira-kira.net\/fanfiction\/category\/harrypotter\/"}},"tags_names":{"161":{"name":"HP - Sirius Black\/Remus Lupin","link":"http:\/\/www.kira-kira.net\/fanfiction\/tag\/hp-remussirius\/"},"84":{"name":"Rating: PG-13","link":"http:\/\/www.kira-kira.net\/fanfiction\/tag\/rating-pg-13\/"}},"comments_number":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.kira-kira.net\/fanfiction\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1003","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.kira-kira.net\/fanfiction\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.kira-kira.net\/fanfiction\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.kira-kira.net\/fanfiction\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.kira-kira.net\/fanfiction\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1003"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.kira-kira.net\/fanfiction\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1003\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1004,"href":"http:\/\/www.kira-kira.net\/fanfiction\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1003\/revisions\/1004"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.kira-kira.net\/fanfiction\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1003"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.kira-kira.net\/fanfiction\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1003"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.kira-kira.net\/fanfiction\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1003"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
