"You gotta loosen up, Pete!" School hadn't quite picked up full-steam yet, so Sirus was able to put a record on in the common room without attracting glares from more studious Gryffindors. He was currently attempting to teach the smallest Marauder how to dance. "Don't be scared of the music. You gotta embrace it."

While only Peter was officially in his dance lesson, the pair was in the common room, and Sirius Black dancing always drew attention (especially of the female sort). Sirius was half-thinking that maybe this lesson would have been more successful in the dorm room, where Peter wouldn't have such an audience.

It was too late to change the location, though. When Esme showed up, Sirius would be leaving Peter to his own devices. He had his bag packed and ready with everything an enterprising young Marauder needed to sneak a girl to Hogsmeade.

After what seemed like years, the day had finally arrived. Esme was going out on a date with Sirius Black. With the help of her friends she had decided on wearing jeans (any time spent with a Marauder usually meant running, they advised) and a simple turtleneck sweater. She was ready.

What she was not ready for, however, was the ungodly scene she saw before her once entering the common room.


"What in the name of Merlin are you doing?" she managed to ask, unable to control her laughter.

"Esme!" Sirius turned toward the girl, a bright smile on his face. He was still wearing robes, but not the black uniform robes. These were his favorite, a dark crimson in a more flattering cut than the typical boxy Hogwarts black. "I'm trying to teach Peter how to dance. It's not going very well." He patted Peter on the back and reached over to stop the record. "You can go practice in our room, Pete. I'll get you groovin' before Dumbledore has another dance. Marauders' honor!"

"I'll help too Peter." Esme volunteered. "It looks like he could use all the practice he can get." she mumbled quietly. "Poor guy."

"No need for that now, though," Sirius said, scooping up his bag from a nearby chair. "I had other plans for tonight. You ready to go, Esme?"

"Of course, I'm always up for an adventure." she smiled. "Lead the way."

"Bye, Pete!" Sirius called over his shoulder as he led Esme to the portrait hole. "Don't wait up!"

The Fat Lady swung open at a touch, and Sirius offered his hand to Esme to help her through.

"A gentelman, how noble of you." she joked, taking the hand. She walked along with him until they reached the statue. Esme looked at it for a moment. "It's very nice." she said finally. "Although I feel like I'm missing something...."

"I didn't take you here to show you the statue," Sirius said, pulling out a marble from his pocket. It was a smoky blue inside, and he smiled, tucking it away again. "No, I wanted to take you to this wall." He leaned back against the stones, hands behind him, finding... yes. That one stone had one nick that if you pressed...

A crack appeared in the mortar, then a portion of the wall slid away. Sirius touched a finger to his lips with a smirk before reaching out for Esme's hand and drawing her inside the new tunnel.

The wall slid back into place. Just as it closed, sealing off the light, a torch flared, then another. Down the tunnel, a line of magical torches flickered, filling the passage with a warm light. "My lady," Sirius said, offering Esme a bow. "Hogsmeade awaits." He swept one hand down the tunnel, offering Esme his other arm.

"How did you know this was here?" she questioned, taking his arm as they started to walk. "I.. I don't even know what to say. This is amazing!"
