It would have been easier to deflect and purposely miss the point she was attempting to make but Sirius respected Lily far too much to do that to her. If he hadn't been serious about this, then perhaps he might've.

At her challenging look, Sirius smirked and then watched her leave the bed with a soft hum. He stretched slowly and folded an arm behind his head. "Well, if we find ourselves in a place where we simply just can't wait, I would be open to the idea of eloping." He allowed himself to look her over for a moment.

Merlin, she was more beautiful by the day.

"No, of course not," he responded with a smirk, knowing full well that she'd have him as often as he'd have her. "If we did such a thing, we could invite your parents of course. Or. Send them a mirror and they can watch it as it happens. All hypothetical, of course."

Sirius chuckled and slowly climbed out of bed before walking over to her. "It's all a part of my plan, you know. Become more and more tolerable so you run away with me," he teased, leaning down to kiss her neck before pouring himself a cup of tea.

He glanced at her when she said it would be him that she'd run away with and allowed himself a smile. "Yeah?"
