A Very Sirius Christmas (for crescentandfull)
"Moooony come on!" Sirius takes him by the arm and all but pulls him onto the Hogwarts Express. "You wouldn't want to miss Christmas!"
James had left with his parents the night before for a Christmas 'family reunion' over the holiday, and with the headmaster's approval Peter had portkeyed to France earlier in the morning to visit his auntie, leaving just the two Marauders to take the train back to London.
Sirius, being Sirius, led the way down the the car to one of the back compartments, where he booted out a pair of first year Hufflepuffs to take their compartment by offering them sweets. "Look there, we almost didn't get a compartment because you're dragging your feet." Well, more like he was dragging his trunk, but that was neither here nor there.
