Chapter Summary: Remus leaves Tonks a note explaining he has left. Tonks seeks comfort from the Weasley's

Chapter 1: Misjudgments?

Tonks read the letter again.

My Dearest Dora,

I believe that it would be best for you and the baby if I left. You must understand how much it pains me to do this to you, but we both know it's for the best. I am sorry, and I love you.

Yours Forever,

Remus

Tears stinging her eyes, Tonks crumpled up the letter and threw it in the wastebasket. She was about to leave the room, but she ran back to the wastebasket. She stared into it for a moment before reaching in and pulling it out. She uncrumpled the letter, smoothing it on the edge of the desk.

Tonks apparated outside of the Burrow. She needed Molly's comfort. Eyes rimmed red from crying and knuckles turning white as se gripped the letter, Tonks knocked on the door. Molly Weasley opened the door with a large smile on her face, which was wiped away at the sight of the Metamorphagus in front of her. Molly pulled her into the house.

"Tonks?! What's wrong?" Molly asked, concerned.

Arthur walked into the room upon hearing the commotion. "Tonks! How are yo- What's happened, dear?"

Tonks tried to blink back the tears, but she couldn't stop them from falling. She handed the note to Molly, unable to speak. Arthur moved behind his wife to read it too. There was a moment of silence as the read.

Looking up from the parchment, Molly and Arthur just stared at Tonks like she had three heads. It was the first time that she could ever remember Molly Weasley being speechless.

Arthur began to speak, but was cut off by Molly. "You-You're p-pregnant?"

Tonks groaned inwardly. She and Remus hadn't told anybody yet. "Well, we-I just found out."

"When did he leave, Tonks?" Arthur asked, cautiously.

Sitting down at the dining room table, Tonks put her head in her hands. "W-when I woke up this morning, h-he was gone. H-he just left this note on the table... Why did he do this? I-I can't raise a... baby by myself,... I need him. I-I'm so scared." Tonks was becoming hysterical.

Molly sat down in the chair next to Tonks, and pulled her closer, embracing the frightened woman. "Oh, Tonks. You don't need to be scared. He'll be back; he's just overwhelmed. And you know that we will always be here for you."

"I know...thanks. I'm just...I mean, I thought he loved me. I guess I misjudged him." She sighed, looking up at Molly.

"Now, you know that not true. He's just scared, too. He loves you with all of his heart. He'll be back, you'll see. Why don't you stay here until then?"

Tonks bit her lip. "I don't want to get in the way."

"Nonsense. Besides, with the boys all gone and Ginny at school, I get lonely. I could use the company."

Tonks smiled. "I guess that would be alright."

A/N: Hope you liked it...I have up to chapter 5 written and am working on chapter 6. I know that my chapters are on the short side, but please deal with it...if it bothers you that much, don't read it...

REVIEW: I love reviews, and constructive critism...it do take them and try to work into my writing to improve. Flames are welcome, however, they may be countered with sarcasm (when I can thinkof it lol) or general bitchiness (not too often)...

FINALLY: For some reason, the H key on my keyboard has a tendancy to stick. I' ve cleaned it many times, but it doesn't work. I go back and fix the missing H's but every so often, I miss one...Sorry!...I think I got them all in this chapter...
