Chapter Nine: The Snowman
……………
(One month later.)
"Hey, Siri! You have got to come outside and check out the snowman that Remus made! He charmed it to throw snowballs at people passing by. Can you believe it? I had nothing to do with it-it was all Remus!" James exclaimed breathlessly.
Sirius was standing on the other side of the room, holding a muggle magazine in his hand. His foot was tapping on the floor impatiently. He was wearing a pair of old jeans and a warm, black sweater. His stomach was slightly larger, but nowhere near as big as it would eventually be.
"Are you quite finished?" Sirius asked.
"Wha? What's wrong? Is everything okay, Siri?"
Sirius scoffed. "Everything is not all right, James."
James rushed over to Sirius' side. "What happened? Do you feel sick? Do you feel faint? Do you-"
"You worry too much," Sirius replied. "I am physically fine at the moment. I, however, am having a very hard time dealing with this!" Sirius thumbed through the magazine and held up an article in front of James' face.
James scanned the title and tried not to laugh.
JIMI HENDRIX VOTED BEST GUITAR PLAYER IN THE HISTORY OF MUSIC
Sirius tossed the magazine on top of his bed andred red at James. "What is wrong with people today?" he asked bitterly. He sat down on James' bed and quickly put on his winter boots.
"Bloody voters," Sirius muttered as he stood up again. He grabbed his coat and threw it on. "Let's go look at the danowmnowman!"
James chuckled and followed his boyfriend into the hallway. "Did you send in a vote, Siri?"
Sirius stomped down the stairs with his hands in his pockets. "Of course I sent in my vote, James!"
"And who did you vote for?" James asked, still amused, but trying not to show it.
Sirius stopped walking, causing James to bump into him. Sirius stumbled on the steps, but grabbed the banister and quickly regained his balance.
"Merlin, Siri, I'm sorry!" James said. "Are you all right? Is the baby all right?"
"Of course not," Sirius replied. "Neither one of us is okay!" he exclaimed, throwing his hands up in the air and continuing to walk down the steps. "My child has the same taste in music as I do, and he or she is mad as hell that Jimmy Page didn't win!"
James rolled his eyes and gently pushed Sirius in the direction of the door. "And here I was actually concerned that I had hurt one of you. All you can think about is Led Zeppelin. Merlin help me."
Sirius snickered and grabbed James' hand in his own. "You're lucky you have me. Where else would you get an education in good music?"
"Who knows," James murmured. He squeezed Sirius' hand. "So you voted for Jimmy Page, huh? I never would have guessed."
"I mean, Hendrix was damn good, but Jimmy Page is so much better!" Sirius said passionately.
"If it makes you feel any better, Siri, I have a really good feeling that Jimmy Page could care less about winning something like this."
"Hmph. Maybe you're right. He is the best, though."
"MmmHmm. If you say so."
"James!"
"All right, all right, he is the best!" James laughed and leaned over to briefly kiss the side of Sirius' face.
Sirius winked and both Gryffindors walked through the main doors and arrived outside.
"So, where is this snowman, anyway?" Sirius asked.
"Right over there," James steered Sirius to the left and pointed.
"Aha. And Remus came up with this on his own?"
"So it would seem."
"That's bizarre."
As soon as they were within two yards of the snowman, it reached down and grabbed several handfuls of snow. Using its stick arms, the snowman hurled a rather large snowball right at Sirius. It landed in the middle of his face.
While Sirius was rubbing the snow off of his face with his coat, James was in the process of getting hit.
"Frozen bastard," Sirius muttered. "I can't believe Remus is responsible for this!"
James spit into the snow and scowled.
"That's disgusting, babe," Sirius remarked.
"It was in my mouth!" James complained.
"It's snow, you handsome moron," Sirius replied. "You can eat it, you know."
James shuddered. "Eww. What're you doing, Siri?"
"Grabbing a handful of snow. See Remus over there?" Sirius asked, pointing to a nearby tree. goi going to zap him, damn it!"
James grabbed Sirius' arm and then swore when the snowman hit him in the stomach. "Argh!"
"See? We've got to get him back. Our Moony is going to become the top Marauder if we're not careful, James."
"Siri, I really think you should be careful. You're pregnant! You don't need to be getting involved in snowball fights!"
Sirius dropped his handful of snow and took James' hands in his own. "Fuck, James, you're right! I am incapable of doing anything. What was I thinking? Shit. Can you carry me inside so that I can stare at the wall until dinner?"
James glared at his boyfriend. Sirius smirked and raised an eyebrow.
"All right, Siri. Maybe I am being a little bit overprotective."
"A little bit? James, you're acting like I can't even move!"
"Now that's exaggerating. I didn't say that. I just worry about you. You know that."
"Yes I do, and I appreciate all of your concern," Sirius replied. He kissed James' lips and then groaned when he felt a snowball hit the side of his head.
"Bloody snowman is going down," Sirius grunted. He reached down and grabbed up another handful of snow. "I promise I'll be careful, James. It's just that, well, the past few weeks have been great!sp;Isp;I haven't been sick, and I haven't been too depressed. And now, I want to have some fun by slamming snowballs at Remus!"
Sirius flung a snowball at the unassuming Remus. It landed right in the werewolf's face.
Remus looked startled and then grinned when he saw Sirius. He knew how hard the first several weeks of Sirius' pregnancy had been, and he figured there were many more hard weeks yet to come. He was glad to see hrienriend happy and having a good time once again. Sirius deserved it.
Remus reached down to grab some snow and was about ready to toss the ball at Sirius when another snowball hit him, this time in the chest.
"James Potter!" Remus exclaimed.
James laughed and within seconds, the three Gryffindors were all in a snowball fight together.

…………
Later that evening, Sirius was looking out the window.
James walked over to his boyfriend and put his hand on Sirius' back. "You okay?"
"Yeah, I am, actually. A month ago, I would have been in my bed crying and feeling utterly depressed, but right now? I feel pretty good. If I dwell on things too much, then I start to sink right back into depression, but luckily I can sit at this window and watch McGonagall try to stop Remus' snowman from hitting her with snowballs."
James kissed the top of Sirius' head and then peered out the window. He wanted to tell Sirius how happy he was that the past few weeks had been easier for him. But, James knew better than to say that. He needed to act like everything was normal-that was what was going to help Sirius the most. As it was, James already had a hard time not worriedly following Sirius around like a mother hen.
"I didn't think we could see the snowman from our window," James commented.
"It moved,riusrius said.
"It moved?"
"It sure did. I was looking out the window while you were in the shower. See, I was trying to get my mind off of things, and-"
"I'm sorry, love," James murmured.
Sirius quirked an eyebrow. "I was trying to get my mind off of Jimmy Page coming in second place," he said with a grin.
"I should have known. Continue then. You were sitting here worrying about Jimmy Page and then all of a sudden, Remus' snowman walked into the picture?"
"You got it. I think we should name him. Where's Remus?"
"With Snape," James replied. He sat down next to Sirius and laughed. "She needs to give up. He's not stopping! That snowman is lethal!"
"I wasn't with Snape for your information," Remus said from behind Sirius and James. "He is charmed to throw more snowballs at the professors. And he will walk, but only once the sun sets. And if he's provoked while walking, he'll stop and fight his attacker with an armful of snowballs. His name is Hades."
James and Sirius turned around and stared at Remus with admiration in their eyes.
Remus smirked and patted his friends on the back. "Who's the best Marauder now?" he asked, amber eyes shining.
