16. Dragonhide gloves

“Uh Padfoot, mind if I borrow your Dragonhide gloves?” James asked.

“Sure.” Sirius said, slightly suspicious.

“Why James would you need Dragonhide gloves when you already own some?” Remus asked, eyeing James apprehensively.

“It’s for an experiment.” James replied ambiguously.

“You already destroyed yours didn’t you?” Peter piped up.

“You all have no trust in me.” James said.

“Nope.”

“Nu uh.”

“No.”

... “Okay, you’re right, they melted in my attempt at making. But please Padfoot!” James whined.

Sirius rolled his eyes. “Go ahead. You destroy them though, you buy me new ones.”

“Done.” James said.
