Summary: Sirius gets more than he bargained for when Remus unleashes another of his perversions. But he doesn’t completely back away, either.

Author’s Notes: Seventh in my colored hankie series for pervy_werewolf’s Lusty Month of May. Also works for Challenge #22: Sweet Transvestite

More Notes: This is my first ever attempt at writing cross-dressing, so I dearly hope this is all right. I certainly found it far more challenging to write than I had expected. It might also be nice to note (for anyone who’s not familiar with my take on the characters) that my Remus is moustache-less ;-)

 

            Having set Kreatcher upon the dishes, Sirius trudged upstairs. It was one of the few nights a week when there wasn’t an evening Order meeting, so they had eaten early. The fact that Remus had spent the whole of dinner shooting Sirius lustful looks had gone unnoticed by the Weasleys, but Sirius ended the dinner as quickly as possible after Remus had excused himself during dessert.

 

            “Remus?” he called quietly, checking Remus’ bedroom and bathroom. “Where are you?” He checked the study where Remus liked to read after dinner. Sirius had a sudden urge to sneak up on Remus and jump him. Tackle him to the floor or straddle him in the armchair or pin him down on the bed.

 

            He found no trace of Remus, however, until Sirius checked his own bedroom. There, upon the bed, was a pile of clothing and a lavender-colored hankie resting on top. The clothes did not look at all familiar to him, as he approached, though he couldn’t see them so well in the way they were folded. He wondered whether they were meant for him or for Remus.  

 

            “They are for me,” Remus answered, before Sirius could ask. Remus stepped inside Sirius’ room and closed the door behind. “You wished me to stay in and share my eccentricities with you, did you not?” Remus glided over to the pile of clothes and tossed the handkerchief away, revealing clothes that were definitely not Remus’ usual style of dress. The main item was, in fact, a dress.

 

            “I did,” Sirius said, staring at the clothes. “I simply expected cock rings and nipple clamps not… ball gowns and lacey underwear.” Sirius pulled a face at that.

 

            “You don’t find a man in drag sexy?”

 

            With the same displeased expression, Sirius shook his head. “Why would I? I prefer blokes, Remus. Even back in Hogwarts when I was dating girls I never much liked their clothing, with the flowers and prettiness and lace. I like men, Remus.”

 

            “Of course you do,” Remus said, nodding pleasantly. He did not look a bit dissuaded by Sirius’ comments. “And you like me, don’t you? You like my body? You find me attractive?”

 

            “I find you dead sexy,” Sirius agreed. “I can’t ever get enough of your body. I adore it.”

 

            Remus picked up the pale yellow satin dress and shook it out to its full side. “Then by that token, it should not matter what is on my body, so long as I’m still a man. It should not matter what I’m wearing, so long as it’s me inside.”

 

            This was indisputable logic, though Sirius was still not entirely persuaded. He closed his mouth and stared at Remus skeptically.

 

            Remus licked his lips and spoke in the lustiest bedroom voice he could muster, “Help me get dressed, Love. I want you to lift my skirts and fuck me around my panties.”

 

            Merlin, Remus!” Sirius said, shocked. “You’re… ” he couldn’t quite think of what word to use, and certainly did not want to go so far as to insult him or drive him away completely. So he searched for something tactful.

 

            Remus tried to help. “Dead sexy? Playful? Incredibly horny just thinking about you helping me put on a pair of pantyhose?”

 

            Again, Sirius was dumbfounded. He swallowed hard and fought the temptation to flee from his bedroom. But he had asked for this, in a way. And if it made Remus happy… Sirius swallowed again, finding it hard as his mouth went dry. He felt nervous, and as if something was fluttering about in his stomach. But it wasn’t as though Remus was actually going to change into a woman. He was the same Remus, deep down. The same strong, sensitive, intelligent, quiet, caregiver he’d known and loved for so long. “All right,” he choked out before he had a chance to rethink it. “But on one condition.” Remus cocked his head, waiting patiently for it. “That you let me pick colors for a while. Or at least promise we will do something normal tomorrow.”

 

            Remus wasn’t entirely sure how anything he and Sirius played at could be considered normal, but he nodded and smiled his promise. Then he quickly shed his clothes.

 

            For a moment, technically a bit longer than a moment, Sirius considered just jumping Remus as he was and forgetting about all this silliness. But in thinking about it, his mind came back to the point where dressing like a woman was what Remus wanted tonight. And Sirius wanted Remus to get what he wanted. Then he’d jump the man.

 

            Sirius hung back. Remus tried making it easier. “Just think of it as a strange-looking harness.” Sirius laughed uncomfortably, his apprehension not relieved in the slightest.

 

            Remus started with a brassiere, slipping his arms through the straps and then turning around and indicating to Sirius that he needed help with the hooks in the back. Sirius sighed but complied, though it took a few tries to get all three hooked. One wasn’t hard, and he could manage two all right as well. But when he pulled the sides back so he could do the third, one of the hooks invariably unhooked. “Don’t know how birds do this,” Sirius grumbled. “Let alone getting it off again.”

 

            “Just concentrate on the part where I get dressed,” Remus said as he slid on a pair of green satin panties.

 

            Sirius watched, trying to hide his fascination as Remus tucked and held himself in such a way that there was a noticeable bulge in the underwear but they actually looked good on him. In a strange sort of way. In a way that made Sirius stare and… long to touch him. He had felt Remus in satin once or twice before and it wasn’t entirely unpleasant. Far from it, in fact.

 

            “Sirius? Can we continue?” Sirius returned his attention to Remus and the task. He picked up a pair of pantyhose. “For a second there, I thought you might actually be enjoying yourself,” said Remus playfully.

 

            Sirius shook his head emphatically, but the bulge in his trousers told a much different story. Remus saw it and smiled. Then he sat down on the bed and stretched his leg out slowly, toes pointed. Sirius sighed and rolled one leg of the stockings up so that he could more easily put it on. He slid it on over Remus’ foot, then up his leg, pulling tight as he went along. When it was halfway up Remus’ thigh, Sirius moved onto the second leg and repeated his actions, tugging and sliding.

 

            His fingers ran up Remus’ calf, finding it smooth and soft inside the stretched stockings. In fact, they felt rather nice. And looked nice as well. They were still Remus’ legs, with the same marks and hair. But the nylon gave them a new shape and a new texture that Sirius found slightly exciting.

 

            He tried not to show it, however, and continued with the tugging, gathering the loose material here and there and stretching it so the pantyhose went all the way up around Remus’ panties to his waist. Then Sirius stood back and admired the fruits of his labor.

 

            “Now for the dress,” Remus said, still smiling and not giving Sirius much of a chance to admire. “I don’t have a slip, but the dress material is thick enough, I think.” He slid it on over his head, slipping his arms through the thin straps and letting it hand from his thin frame.

 

            Remus strapped on shoes which were dark blue and had had three-inch high heels. Then he stood up and smoothed out the dress, which came down to just below his knees. But the shoes gave him an added height, making him taller than Remus as he stood before him. He retrieved his wand and performed a simple make-up and hair spell upon himself. While he still looked like himself, and Sirius was amazed at that fact, he looked much more feminine as well. Light blush on the cheeks, soft red lips, brown and blue eye shadow, and his brown and gray hair now in waves hanging down to his shoulders.

 

            “So, Sirius, what do you think?”

 

            Sirius’ pale eyes traveled up and down Remus. If he hadn’t been there to see it and had just seen Remus for the first time now, he might have actually thought he was a woman and wouldn’t look twice.

 

            Or perhaps he would. Strangely, he found Remus attractive like this. Maybe because he knew it was Remus, or maybe because Remus looked stunning. Sirius adjusted himself and chewed on his bottom lip for a moment. “You make a wonderful woman,” he whispered.

 

            “Not a woman,” Remus insisted.

 

            “Prove it,” Sirius said, his eyes fixed upon Remus’ crotch. He very much wanted to see an excited Remus in his small panties again, hard and full in the satin. He wanted to hold Remus in his arms, wanted to touch the soft legs and sleek dress-covered body. He wanted to know how it felt to make love to Remus like this.

 

            Remus watched him for a moment, then smiled broadly and beautifully. “You have something to prove as well, you who thought you would not enjoy this.”

 

            Sirius shrugged shyly but looked eager. “That part with the dress bunched up beneath your armpits and me taking you from behind… can we do that now?”

 

            With a light chuckle, and batting his eyelashes that were naturally long, “I’m all yours tonight, Love.”

 

            Sirius jumped him.
