It was summer, but the weather was horrible.

Tonks didn't even notice. She hadn't felt the howling wind or the pouring rain as she walked home that day. Her head was swimming with only one thought, and it made her numb.

Remus didn't love her. He had left her.

It wasn't until she got home that she let herself cry. She curled up on the floor, in the middle of the hallway, and cried. She didn't move for days. And as she cried, it grew stormier outside.
