Outside the curtains was cold. Severus was chilled to the bone after getting out of bed. But he quickly warmed under Remus’ heated look. Regulus pointedly turned away.
“Right,” said Remus once they’d dressed. “Here’s what we do. Regulus, you’re small, you can join us under the Cloak. Then, we’ll sneak past him.”
“Who’s going to open the door?” asked Regulus.
“We’ll open it while still hidden under the Cloak. I dunno about Slytherin, but there’s always a draft in Gryffindor. Doors are constantly opening spontaneously.”
Regulus looked at Severus. “Your boyfriend’s clever.”
Severus blushed, finding it hard to disagree.

When the door opened it revealed Avery leaning up against the wall, wand in hand. He looked like he meant business, the expression in his eyes chilling Severus to the bone.
He tensed when the door opened, relaxing when he didn’t see anyone.
Holding their breath, they remained crouched under the Cloak as they shuffled past, and it wasn’t until they got to the empty common room that Severus could breathe again.
Once outside and away from Slytherin, Remus finally pulled off the Cloak. “God,” he gasped. “That was scary.”
Severus smiled. It had been, but he’d felt oddly safe.
