Sirius shivered and buried his nose deeper into the sheep's wool collar of his aviator jacket, hoping to fend off some of the bitter Scottish chill that surrounded him. Lily walked to his left and had her hands buried into the pockets of her penny lane jacket, the long-fur cuffs and neckline looking much more desirable than the cheap wool on Sirius's jacket. He grunted and grumbled incoherently into his jacket as his boots slipped in the two inches of snow and he almost wiped out on the path to Hogsmeade.
Lily only laughed at his suffering and at least Remus, who had been lagging a bit behind, was prepared to catch Sirius if he went down. Either catch or be dragged down with him; honestly, when did that ever go as planned?
Eventually, Sirius gave up trying to keep his nose warm and instead decided to tough it out. Remus got tired of the grumbling and whining and forcefully pulled Sirius to a stop, clearly done with his complaining about being cold. Remus unwound his scarf from his neck and quickly knotted it around Sirius's neck he was trying to strangle him before pulling it up over his nose with a kind of huffy finality. Sirius blinked in surprise.
"There," Remus stated as he patted down the gold and red knitted material. "Now you can stop complaining about your nose going to fall off in the bloody cold."
Sirius blinked again and Lily snorted as Remus tugged him forward to continue walking.
"You know," Lily started as she hid her smile behind the fur collar of her coat. "You and Padfoot would make a pretty goddamn cute couple."
Remus's face flushed bright pink. Sirius glanced over with an inquisitive smirk as if to ask, 'where the hell are you going with this?'
Remus shook his head and took a deep breath. "Oh no, we're not a couple. Far from it, I might add."
Lily raised her eyebrows as if she were about to say, 'well, I never said anything about you guys being a couple...' but Sirius spoke before she could get her mouth open.
"Wow, okay," Sirius began with an offended scoff and Remus narrowed his green eyes. "You seem pretty bothered by that statement. What am I? Not good enough for you?"
He sighed and rolled his eyes. "We're not having this conversation again..."
"Again?" Lily asked and this time they both turned red. "Okay, so you've had this conversation before? Good to know."
"Shut it-!"
