Summary: Recent events have led Kira to believe James, Sirius, and the rest of their posse could do with a little humbling. For that very reason she sought out Lily's help to sneak into Gryffindor Tower and spike their shampoo!
Status: Complete

Although Kira had always got along rather well with Sirius and the rest of his mates, the events of the past week had left her with a bit of a sour taste in her mouth. She butted heads with Black in Transfiguration class, but the two did manage to make peace between them shortly after. Despite all that, talk on Lily's recent journal entry led Kira to believe the boys could do with some good, old fashioned humbling. They spent so much time being the ones entertaining the student body that no one really had a proper chance to get even.

However, that was all about to change. Kira stumbled upon a beautiful mistake in Potions class just the day before. Crushing instead of chopping and a few stinging nettle leaves as opposed to ivy was all it took. Typically Kira was on top of her game where class participation came in to play, but today her mind was elsewhere. She considered it nothing more than Wuthering Heights withdrawals. Whatever the reason, when Slughorn tested her potion after class he discovered the consequences of her mistakes.

Kira was initially quite appalled, apologetically so, that her professor's hair littered the floor following a sip of her potion. Fortunately his eyebrows, eyelashes, and she assumed everything else, remained intact. Regardless, it was difficult to face him. He offered to give her a second chance during a free period later in the week, one she gladly took, and she took off with a sample of her potion under his instruction to test for the error and correct it.

What Slughorn could never have foreseen was the fact Kira had better things in mind for that potion. Sirius, who had already told her several times before how cherished his hair was, would be in for a big surprise. Though initially she was going to try to focus her efforts on him alone, Lily's journal entry allowed her to see the whole lot of his mates could do with a little humiliation. Kira poked around to figure out the easiest way to make the switch between their bottles and her own, and once she had what she deemed to be a fool proof plan, she asked for Lily's blessing. All systems were "go."

Bright and early, long before she assumed anyone would be alert enough to start getting ready for classes, Kira offered up the password Lily tipped her off on before the Fat Lady's portrait and made her way into the Common Room. Admittedly it was her first time surrounded by the red and gold, but having prepared herself in advance through Hogwarts, a History, she wasted little time dawdling. With one shampoo bottle filled with potion tucked under her arm, she made headway for the boys' showers. It would take no more than a squeeze into each shampoo container, followed by a hearty shake, to do the trick.

The showers were spaced rather strangely compared to that of the girls' showers in Ravenclaw, but Kira wasn't too concerned about that. She had enough to dart between the gaps and fill every container she could find to ensure the Black and his posse wouldn't be missed. After what had to have been her third shower, Kira froze just outside the curtain of a familiar voice. Speaking of the devil, it was Sirius Black singing some sort of song about a bicycle. Scrunching her nose up and covering her mouth with the back of her arm to stifle her laughter, Kira considered simply reaching a hand in to switch out the entire bottle with whatever bottle was in there already. She could see the edge of it from under the curtain, so maybe it wouldn't be near as difficult as it sounded after all! Just when she was crouching down to reach for it, she heard a rather loud voice in the doorway. She couldn't make out who it was, but rather than risk being discovered, Kira forced herself to do the unthinkable.

Not wasting any more time, the Ravenclaw thought on her feet and darted into Sirius' shower with her bottle of potion. As if on cue, he spun around to see what the hell was going on, and immediately her hand shot up to his mouth to keep him quiet, trying her best to avoid getting too close to the water and to keep her eyes fixed on his. Much to her displeasure, the voice drew closer to their area, the boy it belonged to stopping just by the sinks and starting up the water. Rolling her eyes in exasperation, Kira looked anxiously at the curtain. Thanks to this tosser her plan was a bust.

Though Sirius tended to stay up late and then sleep in, this morning, for no apparent reason, he had woken up much earlier than usual. Actually, he knew the reason: he had forgotten to close the curtains of his bed the night before. When the sun rose, Sirius got a faceful of it, and it was difficult to fall asleep after that. He tried to close them and fall asleep, but to no avail, so finally he decided to get up and shower and maybe actually make it to breakfast for a change.

In the shower, Sirius sang. He always had, after all. Though he wasn't an awful singer, he also wasn't a particularly good one: just good enough for the shower. That morning, the selection was some choice Muggle rock. As he washed his famous hair, he heard someone else come in, but thought nothing of it, assuming another bloke was coming in for his morning piss, shower, or what have you. He had just rinsed the shampoo out when out of nowhere, the curtain on his shower opened.

Yes, Sirius was surprised, but he had always reacted well to surprise. That, and he wasn't at all ashamed of his body. He would happily walk around naked if it were socially acceptable. He had to admit the surprise of being walked in on was compounded by the fact that it was Kira Fenwick of all people. Before he could offer an appropriately snarky question, however, she had clapped her hand over his mouth, which was when he heard someone else turn on the tap.

Of course, Sirius' look of surprise was quickly replaced by a suggestive, mischievous smirk. Fenwick was in the Gryffindor boys' bathroom far too early, and she was carrying a bottle. He wasn't an idiot--clearly she was trying to prank them in some way or another. Well, then, at least he could have a little fun. The first thing he did was grab the wrist of the arm with the potion in it. After all, he had no idea what that did, and better safe than sorry when you were naked. Then, since he still couldn't talk, he set his other hand on Kira's shoulder and leaned forward, close to her ear. As he saw her tentatively remove her hand from his mouth, he whispered "If you wanted to see me naked that badly, Kira, you could have just asked."

Kira was certain, beyond the shadow of a doubt, this situation she had waltzed into couldn't have worked more contrary to her intended plans. Not only would Sirius Black now have another purpose in teasing her, she could no longer defend herself against the accusations. After all, it was Kira who had jumped in his shower, not the other way around. That being said, it was damn near impossible to keep her eyes fixed on his face. The shower was slippery, even with her shoes on, and his hands were moving around far too much for her comfort. When he reached for her wrist, her blue eyes instinctively darted downward as she attempted to retract her hand. It was all to no avail, however, because she caught sight of his nether regions and was left too embarrassed and shocked to move. Closing her eyes as she shifted them back to him, she resorted to let him hold her. Unfortunately she was now getting wet, no thanks to his dripping on her, and the angle at which the floor went toward the drain made it near impossible to evade slipping closer to the shower head, and by extension, Sirius himself.

Sirius' mischievous smirk caused Kira to roll her eyes at him. She knew where this was going, and it was not at all what she had planned. What could she possibly say to Lily now? And Dorcas for that matter? All the headway the girl thought Kira had made with Sirius was now back to square one.

When he made a move for her shoulder with his free hand and leaned his face closer to her ear to imply he was going to whisper, she allowed her hand to hover over his mouth briefly before his actions proved her assumptions to be grounded. That hand that had formerly been over his mouth was now clinging to the side shower tiles as she attempted to hold herself up and as far away from Sirius' body as possible. One swift squeeze of that bottle and the potion would be all over his lower regions, but she would much rather wait for a more opportune time to get his head. That was the only sure-fire way of making this prank a success, and let's face it, he had to let her go eventually.

It took all her will to not stomp on his foot for his remark, but she was concerned one false move on her part would leave them exposed to the guy on the other side of the curtain. Taking heed to follow Sirius' example, Kira leaned in toward his ear to respond. "If I'd wanted to see you naked, I would have," she snapped back, shifting her free hand to his chest to steady her better. Clearly a hand against the wall didn't help much when she was leaning away from it.

The other boy in the room seemed to be taking his sweet old time, talking himself through his plans for the day between brushing his teeth and gurgling water. She huffed silently to herself, her face being exposed to the water dripping off of Sirius. Closing her eyes again as if attempting to will the intruder to leave, Kira finally decided to try to get Sirius to work with her. "If I get caught, they'll have your head too. Do something."

Perhaps it was inappropriate, but Sirius couldn't help but be amused by the whole situation. Kira was clearly besides herself, and it was nice to see the usually unflappable Ravenclaw off her guard for once. Of course, the only result it had was to make her even more short with him, but Sirius wasn't upset; he just found it amusing. He couldn't say he was complaining when she had to steady herself with a hand on his chest, either.

Of course, Kira was mostly upset by the presence of another student in the bathroom, which also didn't bother Sirius one bit. When she demanded that he do something about a situation over which he had no control, he shifted his free hand to the wall above her head, then leaned close to Kira again to whisper, sly smirk still firmly in place. "The only reputation that could be damaged at this point is yours, love, and I'm certainly not afraid of a detention or two. But there's nothing to worry about, honest. No bloke's going to stick his head in an occupied shower anyway, but especially not if he thinks another bloke's getting lucky in there. Gentleman's code, and all that."

Because Sirius was completely and totally insufferable, of course, he couldn't resist giving Kira's earlobe the lightest nip, since he was there anyway, after all. He also took advantage of her distraction in that moment to knock the potion bottle from her hand. He believed he had thwarted her, but what he didn't realise was that his own container of shampoo was still open on the shower floor, well within the splash zone.

The girl wasn't entirely sure what she had anticipated Sirius doing. Something chivalrous and perhaps more self-sacrificial. At the least he could offer a proper distraction so should could try to slip from the showers undetected. His suggestive smirk only managed to cause Kira further discomfort, partly because it made her feel like her stomach had been tied in knots but mostly owing to the fact this mistake was all on her. Hindsight told her she should have just taken her chances with the other boy. Sirius would likely never let her live this down, and she didn't like the idea of him having that power over her. Narrowing her eyes as if to challenge his cocky, cheeky smile, Kira attempted to step further back from him, only coming in to contact with the shower wall behind her. This was too close for comfort. It wasn't like Kira had never seen the male physique before. The injury to her pride came in that it was Sirius, and more so, that she couldn't deny he had plenty to be proud of.

As Sirius adjusted a hand on the wall just over her head, Kira felt even more uneasy. This was wrong in so many ways. When she felt Sirius lean in, Kira shifted her face to the opposite side and closed her eyes, trying her best not to look at him and to will the entire thing away. She couldn't deny her ears and neck were tender, and on cue, the goosebumps quickly formed following Sirius' comment. If that wasn't enough, now she was pretty much drenched thanks to him. Granted, it was pretty much entirely her fault for walking in to the lions' den, quite literally, but she wasn't about to take the blame for this predicament. Not when it was easier to blame him. "So you admit my reputation would be forever marred by fooling around with you!" she snapped back, shifting her eyes back to Sirius. Her gazed dropped to his lips briefly, averting back to his dark eyes once again before continuing. "Yet you wouldn't try to fight for my honour?"

She wasn't about to discuss the 'gentleman's code' Sirius spoke of, but assumed it, too, was a load of rubbish. Boys were boys, and all of them wanted to know the dirty details of each others affairs. Kira was all too familiar with that, and frankly didn't want to repeat it.

Then, without so much as a warning, Kira felt Sirius' lips on her ear, at which point Kira wriggled beneath him in an attempt to shy away. Within seconds, the insufferable twat had knocked her potion bottle onto the floor. "Gah, I could just..." she started, but stopped abruptly when she heard the other boy grow silent. Afraid her cover was broken, Kira pursed her lips together and squeezed her eyes shut, using her recently freed hand to steady herself better against Sirius' chest. Within no more than thirty seconds or so, the boy started up with his whistling again, and Kira's hand shifted into a fist with which she pounded once against the Gryffindor's chest. "There are ways to dispose of your body without ever getting caught, y'know," she warned him, slipping her head underneath his arm to try to maneuver around Sirius. To her disdain, that meant she had to reposition herself more directly under the shower, but it was the lesser of two evils at this point. Kira shifted the shower curtain to peek out briefly, seeing that the boy was literally just across from where they were.

Thinking of nothing better at this point than to punish Sirius for not helping her escape, Kira reached up to the faucet and adjusted the water to freezing. Sure, it was going to fall on her just the same, but at least she was fully clothed. He still had to use his imagination whereas she, well, let's just say she knew what would happen to him in such temperatures. Kira shifted her hands to his arms to drag Sirius under the freezing stream of water, and hence closer to her. If she was to suffer, so was he! "How do you like me now, Black?" she whispered from behind. When it began to sting his skin, then perhaps he'd remove himself from the shower. Sure, she was freezing her tits off, but she wasn't about to admit defeat. Maybe some of that potion was still salvageable. It was worth her best shot anyway, especially after all of this.

Maybe he was a sadist, but Sirius couldn't help but be amused by Kira's enduring discomfort. The positively wicked smirk had all but taken up permanent residence on his face. When she argued with his comment about reputations, he laughed and shook his head, 'accidentally' spraying her with a few drops of water. "Not at all. I'm saying that your reputation would be tarnished by being discovered in a shower with any bloke. Me, on the other hand? No one would be surprised."

He had to admit, however, that he was impressed by Kira's daring. She wasn't at all afraid to be right up close to him as she reached around to peek out the shower curtain, apparently to check on the other bloke who was occupying the restroom. "Who's to say someone else won't come in when he leaves? It's not my fault you didn't think this through," he commented in response to her threat. Perhaps it was arrogant, but Sirius didn't take it seriously at all. He knew he got on her nerves sometimes, but he doubted that aside from the other day in class, he'd ever made Kira legitimately angry, let alone enough to kill him.

His train of thought was interrupted, however, by the sudden change in water temperature. Sirius gasped at the difference, then swore aloud, feeling around for the faucet until he found it and turned the water back to warm. Of course, it was going to take a moment to warm up again, and in the mean time, Sirius was going to try and get out from underneath it. He had the advantage, too, because he was stronger. Trying not to slip and knock them both flat, Sirius wriggled around in Kira's grip so he was facing her again.

"Not smart, Kira. What would happen if I pushed you out of here right now, huh?" She should have been able to see he didn't mean it as a legitimate threat from the expression on his face, but he did have a good point. In this situation, he had nothing to lose.

When Sirius laughed aloud, Kira nudged against him to attempt to remind him to quiet down. Of course she didn't believe it would work in the slightest, but she had to try at this point. If worse came to worse, she'd just have to make Sirius stick around until the others went off to breakfast. It was still quite a ways off, so she hoped that wouldn't be her option. Maybe she could dart to the next shower and hide out there until they all left? The only issue was getting there undetected, and she knew better than to trust Sirius to leave her sights for longer than a few minutes. Her luck she'd have his entire dormitory there within seconds to taunt her for the unfortunate situation. "Because you're the epitome of modesty, purity, and self-control?" she whispered back, cocking her head to the side with a sarcastic expression on her face.

When Sirius piped in again, Kira narrowed her eyes in contempt as she shifted them away from the curtain to him once more. "For your information, I most certainly did. All my sources led me to believe your lazy arse would still be tucked away in your dorm, in complete ignorance." He had some nerve suggest for the second time within the course of a few days that she was incompetent. Luckily Kira wasn't in the mood to have a row with him there in the shower, nor did she plan on doing anything that might cause him to act irrationally and have this blow up in her face. "You'd better hope no one else does, or you'll be in here until they leave," she threatened, poking his chest indignantly. Though a bit put off by the anxiousness she'd initially felt, Kira had become rather practiced when it came to keeping her eyes at his chest level or above in that short time span. As long as they didn't stray too much, she could pretend he was wearing pants.

Kira laughed silently to herself as Sirius gasped, though she couldn't deny it was the most amusing part of their combo shower to that point. When he cursed aloud, it caused the other Gryffindor boy to take notice of him. "All right in there, mate?" came the nasally teenage voice. As if in an attempt to will it all to work out for her, Kira squeezed her eyes shut and waited for Sirius' response. She didn't think the boy would be rude enough to poke his head in an occupied shower, but at this point wouldn't put it above Sirius to hint to her presence for the sake of building himself up if nothing else.

By the time she risked opening her eyes again, Sirius had shifted around to face her. She shifted her hand to his stomach in an attempt to keep a little modesty between them, and with her free hand reached for the faucet again as a safety net. "I'll bring you down with me," she challenged back. "Besides, you wouldn't," Kira added for good measure, hoping she was right about that one anyway.

When the other bloke in the bathroom spoke up, apparently having heard Sirius swearing, he felt a rush of adrenaline. It wasn't as if he would be embarrassed if caught, but he was definitely caught up in the situation now. "Just knocked the faucet and nearly froze my bits off, but I'm okay, cheers," Sirius called out, his voice its usual easy drawl as if there were nothing whatsoever wrong. That seemed to be enough to satisfy the boy, at least for now, anyway, and he went back to his ridiculously long morning routine.

Of course, Sirius wasn't really complaining about how long it was taking him. If anything, he was appreciative: this was fun, much better than how he had expected his morning to turn out. Kira was right, though: he really wouldn't push her out of the shower and leave her to get in trouble. That would be dishonourable, after all. Then again, it'd be pretty dishonourable of her to turn the freezing water on him again, so he wasn't making any promises. "Yeah, you're probably right," Sirius whispered, deliberately taunting her with his emphasis.

However, he didn't get a chance to prove himself honest or a liar, because just then, the door opened. Sirius waited for a moment to see if it was the tosser at the sink leaving or someone coming in. Since it was quiet, he decided it was probably the former, and a cursory glance through a gap in the curtain suggested as much. "There you go. Next time, you might want a better backup plan than jump in the shower with someone, just a tip. Probably won't be someone as gorgeous as me next time," he teased, leaning against the wall of the shower lazily.

Thankfully Kira wasn't betrayed by him. Sirius delivered a beautiful, unwavering excuse that wasn't entirely untrue. "It could do you some good to go without them, if you ask me," Kira leaned in to his ear to sass back in spite of things, smiling at the thoughts running through her mind. She wanted to take a jab at the fact he was smaller than the last one, though not entirely true. Yet, it somehow did her spirit good to cut him down to size now and then, and Sirius would just as likely take such a comment as a means of teasing her for having copped a look. Kira was well aware he'd probably known already she'd done just that, but it wasn't as if that was her aim all along. There's only so much shuffling around two could do in such a small space, and it never hurts to be sure to avoid any unwanted contact, right?

Surprisingly enough, Kira's uneasiness had somewhat given way to similar amusement. Her wrath was prodded at every time Sirius made a remark about her flawed plans, but she merely reminded herself that he had little room to talk. Gryffindors, specifically the one standing before her now, was known to fly by the seat of his pants with just about everything. Perhaps it was his means of breaking as far away as possible from his family and their structure and routine. Whatever the case may be, Kira knew better than to take advice on planning from Sirius Black. Turning her eyes away from the curtain after having drawn it back to see the boy was gone, Kira glanced back to Sirius once more. "Backup plans. Advice from Sirius Black. I truly have heard it all," she teased back, smirking at the casual, collected boy. "Next time, I'll keep my fingers crossed the bloke has a little more to offer than what's skin deep. Maybe then I would happily cave to the temptation." With one swift downward movement of her hand, Kira turned the freezing water on high once more. After all, honor was a Gryffindor quality wasn't it? She gave Sirius' face a gentle pat on the cheek with the same hand before slipping out of the shower, only turning around to reach back underneath his feet for the potion bottle. There was enough left to ditch in another nearby shower, so after discarding her evidence and drying herself off via her wand, Kira slipped back to the door. "Thanks for the memories, Black," she called out over the sound of his shower, laughing quietly to herself as she darted through Gryffindor tower and back to the portrait hole.
