Author's Note: Here's my songfiction for the Tonks and Lupin love story set to A Perfectly Good Heart. Enjoy and please review or I will have to cry. :(
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart?
Why would you wanna take our love and tear it all apart now?
Tonks and Lupin where having another fight about Tonks wanting to be with Lupin but he didn't think it a good idea. He was naming again his immense list of reasons as to why he and Tonks couldn't be together. Tonks would try to say something but Remus would just ignore it. She thought that he was afraid of his own feelings, and in truth he was, he didn't want to ruin Tonks' life by letting her fall for him, unfortunately it was a little too late. Tonks had already fallen for him and now she loved him more than anything in the world.

"Remus," Tonks spoke finally getting him to pay attention to her words "you've talked about poverty, and age, and I don't know what else but the one thing you haven't done is tell me that you don't love me. If you tell me that Remus I'll go away and leave you alone, I'll stop being the stubborn woman I know you think I am and I know that I am but before you say anything I want to make sure you know this isn't just a stupid girl crush." Remus began to speak but before he could Tonks pressed her lips to his the feeling of the kiss made Lupin experience things he never would've believed possible, for him anyway.
Maybe I should've seen the signs
Should've read the writing on the wall
And realized by the distance in your eyes
That I would be the one to fall
No matter what you say
I still can't believe
That you would walk away it don't make sense to me but why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart?
Remus and Tonks broke apart and she gave him an acquiring look while he pressed his hand against his forehead briefly. Then he looked down on her and said "Of course I love you Tonks, it's the fact that I love you so much that I don't want you to get hurt." Tonks smiled and looked up at Remus "I'm a big girl I can take care of myself."
Why would you wanna take our love and tear it all apart now?
Why would you wanna make the very first scar?
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart?
It's not unbroken anymore
How do I get it back the way it was before?
"I know that you can take care of yourself, it just seemed like…" Lupin stopped speaking but Tonks interrupted him "I was so obsessed with getting what I wanted that I wouldn't pay attention to the little things." Tonks offered "Exactly, how did you know?" Tonks just shrugged and kissed Remus again.

Remus and Tonks broke apart and Lupin asked "Do you want to go for a walk?" Tonks smiled and she didn't notice, but her hair changed from grey to pink and then to its natural color of color of light chocolate and to a little below shoulder length. Lupin observed this and said "Um, your hair." Tonks pulled a soft strand from her shoulder and studied it. Then said "Natural hair, I wonder why..."Then she looked up at Lupin who smiled. "What are you smiling about?" Tonks said letting out a small laugh "I like it." So Tonks instead of changing her hair back to its signature pink left it the way it was and the couple walked down the street holding hands.

Tonks stopped briefly an Lupin asked "Is anything wrong?" A girlish smile appeared on Tonks' face as she replied "I'm fine I just have a question for you... why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart?" Lupin replied in some way but Tonks couldn't hear him over her laughing. The two walked on and soon Remus Lupin was laughing at the sight of N. Tonks' uncontrollable giggling. The two put their arms around each other and walked into the distance.

This is a truly good song if you haven't heard it I encourage you to. It's so beautiful and it just seemed to match Tonks and Lupin's relationship so perfectly. Remember though they may be physically dead they will remain alive in the hearts of those who love and are loyal to them. Tonks and Lupin may the rest in peace and live on wherever they are now. Please review or I won't bring them back from the dead in a fanfiction.
