A/N: Okay, so I was accused of never writing anything warm and fuzzy, and just to prove that I CAN write without hurting characters, Im writing a bit of a fuzzy moment between Sirius & Lyria. Keep your barf bucket ready. Anyway, this one fits in almost anywhere after he escapes if youve ready any of my other post-Azkaban type works youll see where it fits. And Platform934 RPers can just pop this in almost anywhere.
And this ones thanks to Snuffles so curse/bless her when youre finished.
It was positively abnormal. For one day, one single day, it looked as if nothing would go wrong.
You sure youre going to be able to get back up? Sirius teased gently as Lyria sat down on the picnic blanket.
If I cant, its your fault, his six-month-pregnant wife replied. And *youre* going to have to help me get up.
I bet I could manage that. He sat down as well. It was the perfect fall day, just cool enough for Lyri to be comfortable and perfectly clear skies stretching overhead.
But you think you could manage it if I were laying down? She didnt wait for a response, just stretched out and rested her head in his lap.
Looks like well find out. He leaned down to kiss her forehead and then began playing with a stray piece of her hair. If not, I reckon youre in trouble.
She laughed. Wish wed brought our brooms.
You shouldnt be flying anyway. The little Padfoot would probably like it on the ground if hes got to be upside down for a while anyway.
We should name him. Got any ideas? Lyria closed her eyes as the baby in question moved.
Hes kicking again, isnt he? Sirius gently placed a hand on her stomach.
Mm-hmm. Hes been pretty active lately.
Caylan?
Any particular reason?
Cause it popped into my head?
She laughed softly. Caylan it is. Now I have something to call him when I scold him for waking me up and making me fat.
You look great. And its only a few more months now.
You just like that you feel special cause Im pregnant and you did it.
Sirius grinned appreciatively. Yeah I do like that youre pregnant and I did it.
Again.
He gently rubbed her stomach. Which means clearly, you like it too.
Yeah but youre having the next one, she told him.
Sirius snorted. Yeah well see.
Lyria playfully swatted at him.
He caught her by the wrist and gently kissed the offending hand, pulling her upright. Dont want you choking on anything if were going to eat.
Thatd probably be best. The two shared a nice quiet lunch, warm sun and a nice breeze.
Its sort of weird not having the kids around, Sirius admitted after a while, pulling Lyria close.
Isnt it? Though we cant exactly escape little Caylan, she joked.
He kissed the back of her neck gently. Well I hope he doesnt mind his dad kissing his mum.
Nah, I think hes sleeping.
You really do look beautiful like that His hands came to rest on her stomach. All cute and pregnant.
Lyria rested her head against him. I think Ill take your word for it.
You should. Youre not a man, you arent entitled to think youre cute.
You dont make any sense. Stop talking.
Sirius complied, and for a while Lyria just enjoyed the rhythmic rise and fall of his chest when he breathed.
He softly kissed her forehead. Love you, Lyri, he said softly.
I love you too, Sirius Think anyoned bother us if we took a nap?
You actually planning to sleep?
She laughed. Yes, actually, I am.
Then Ill stay awake and protect you. He stretched out on the blanket, and Lyria curled up close next to him, resting her head against him.
You make a pretty good pillow, she told him.
Well good.
She soon fell asleep, leaving Sirius to stroke her hair soothingly. Lyria didnt nap for long, however; Caylan, it seemed, had other ideas, and after a while he kicked to wake her up. Oof!
Now Caylan, that wasnt nice. Sirius told his son.
I dont think he cares, Lyria replied. Help me sit up?
Sirius did so, even conjuring a bunch of nice pillows for her to lean against.
Mmm thank you, Siri. She smiled.
Welcome. Maybe Ill even rub your feet, what do you think?
You mean you can find them?
Sirius laughed and gently tugged her shoes off. Well Ive been able to so far, anyway.
Ohh thats nice. What do you want? She teased.
We can discuss that in a minute. He winked and was rewarded with a soft laugh from Lyria. For now Im going to keep rubbing these poor little feet. Youre still getting around all right though, arent you? No swelling?
Nothing too bad, she said. Not enough to make me alter my schedule any.
Which is good news for everyone. He rubbed her feet a while longer.
Alright so what *do* you want?
Just a kiss, he said with an innocent air.
Oh really?
Promise. I just want you to kiss me.
Then come here. Youre rather at the wrong end.
He laughed but got away from her feet, sitting by her instead.
Lyria playfully tugged his collar and kissed him.
Sirius, of course, made use of the opportunity, pulling her closer and not letting her break the kiss not that Lyri really complained.
Good? She asked.
He pretended to consider. Satisfactory.
She swatted him playfully again. When we were in school, you were an annoying little berk, and you know something?
Im still an annoying little berk?
Yes, you are.
Excellent. He kissed her again.
She tugged his hair. You should let me cut this. Its getting long on you
I went and got used to it that way.
But you just look so handsome and respectable when its short. Maybe thats why you wont let me cut it.
Probably, he agreed with a grin.
She smiled. Oh come on, you cant pretend to be twenty-one anymore. Youre a dad.
A few times now, he agreed. So *maybe* Ill let you cut my hair.
Please?
Sirius pretended to fall down in shock.
She swatted him just as it started to rain.
Sirius got to his feet and helped Lyria up. She flicked her wand once, making the blanket tumble itself neatly into the basket, then enchanted the basket to follow them back. Sirius had pulled off his cloak and was covering them both with it.
Thank you, Siri.
Welcome, beautiful. He kissed her cheek. Come on lets go before you get drenched.
And they hurried to get inside.
A/N: ::vomit:: I dont believe I just wrote this they seem so out of character and theres no plot whatsoever anyway, tell me what *you* think
