Well like I said my fan fiction is all about the wedding of Tonks and Lupin. This is my first fanfiction I've posted on here so I'm feeling a little nervous right now! Well here you go, I hope you enjoy:
The Wedding
Remus Lupin sat at his kitchen table sipping coffee and reading the latest edition of the daily prophet. He turned to an article labeled "Greyback strikes again!" and began to read. His face becoming stonier and stonier the further down the article he got.
Late last night Fenrir Greyback once again savaged an attack on an innocent family. The family in question – The Helefrors were left in a terrible mess. The youngest of the family (Bonny, 4) was brutally scratched and is now in a critical state at St Mungos hospital. The eldest child (Omar, 15) was bitten on his shoulder and has been removed to St Mungos also, al though to a private ward away from the general public. Mother of the two (Matilda Helefror, 43) was already dead by the time ministry officials turned up. The father alone was left with very few injuries. It is believed that he was left alive to suffer the pain of his losses after refusing to help Fenrir Greyback. A very unusual act by the Death Eater as usually You Know Who's supporters leave none alive although admittedly this a very effective new method - almost as painful as being tortured by the cruciatus curse, having to watch a vicious wolf attack his beloved family. The number of werewolf attacks in Britain has risen over the past year so some might wonder why these creatures are being allowed to go around free. Once transformed wizards have no control over their actions and so will attack the first unlucky person they happen to come across. I am sure a lot of you would feel better out there if you knew that werewolves were out of the way of innocent victims. Indeed there has been some speculations in the ministry recently over keeping werewolves locked up safe in Azkaban for the good of the country. Indeed a meeting was set up to discuss this issue although no final decision has yet been revealed.
As he finished reading a young woman with grape green hair entered the room. She wandered over to him and planted a kiss on his cheek.
"Tonks," he greeted her.
Tonks plonked herself down at the kitchen table and summoned a bowl, spoon, milk and cereal to land in front of her. Halfway towards the table though the milk collided with the cereal box.
"Sorry!" Tonks yelped as cereal rained down on the two of them.
Lupin merely waved his wand so that the cereal zoomed back inside the box.
"What's wrong?" Tonks asked concernedly as she saw Lupin's grave face.
Lupin took his time before replying. "It's me," he finally said. "And you. We shouldn't be together. You should go out and find someone normal and closer to your age."
"I thought we had been through this before," Tonks sighed. "I don't want to be with anyone else. I like older men! And as for your condition, well it makes our relationship all the more exciting doesn't it!" she grinned.
Lupin did not return the smile though but instead he handed her the newspaper.
Tonks looked up at him as she read the article. "I don't care," she said simply.
"Look," Lupin said exasperatedly. "Don't you see? Everyone hates werewolves and if it gets out that we are together then they will hate you too. I can't do that to you Nymphadora. Even your own family could turn against you. Don't you remember your parents faces when you told them about us?"
"They were surprised that was all," Tonks replied. "Remus you can try all you like to get rid of me but I'm not going," she said stubbornly.
Lupin placed his heads in his hands and closed his eyes.
"I just don't want you to regret it," he said quietly.
"I won't," Tonks said earnestly. "If anything I want to let the world know that we are together. That would truly wind Bellatrix and the rest of the Death Eaters up," she smirked.
For the first time that morning Lupin gave a faint smile.
"What you mean like getting married or something?" Lupin asked.
Tonks face lit up. "Yes!" she said excitedly. "Then you would truly know that I love you Remus and that I want to spend the rest of my life with you."
"I don't know," Lupin said uneasily.
Tonk's face fell as quickly as it had lit up.
"I," Lupin hesitated for a moment. "Is that what you truly want?" he asked her.
"Yes!" Tonks practically screamed.
"Well… I guess we could, maybe… it's just… oh lets get married!" Lupin gave in. "Nymphadora Tonks, will you do this old man a favour by becoming his beautiful wife?"
Tonks looked ready to burst with happiness. She leaped over the table causing things to go flying off and jumped into Lupin's arms. "Oh yes, yes I will!" she exclaimed delightedly.
Lupin wrapped his arms around her and kissed her passionately. All of a sudden Tonk's hair turned shockingly pink.
"Lets do it next week," Tonks suggested. "Just a small ceremony for a few family members."
"So soon!" Lupin laughed.
"I don't see why we should wait," Tonks said.
"Yeah I suppose you are right," Lupin agreed. "Get it done before going to get Harry just incase something happens."
"Oh don't say that!" Tonks said positively. "The plan is going to go fine. We'll rescue Harry and have him safe and secure before You Know Who realizes he has even left the house!"
"I hope so," Lupin murmured absentmindedly stroking Tonk's hair.
"Can we go and tell my parents the good news?" Tonks asked. She looked at Lupin with puppy dog eyes.
"Perhaps it would be better coming from you alone," Lupin said hesitantly. "Who knows how they will react when they find out their daughter is marrying a werewolf almost twice her age."
"Yeah… maybe you are right," Tonks said thoughtfully.
She stood up and with a quick wave to Lupin she waltzed out of the house and down to the end of Lupin's small but neat garden where she disapparated.
Lupin had performed the fidelius charm on his house and had only told Tonks and a few other well trusted members of the Order it's whereabouts.
