My Heart Will Go On:
Summary: Remus dies in the Final Battle, Tonks doesn't. Now she's living with her mom and raising Teddy without him.
Rating: T (For some rape and language (actually I don't think there is bad language))
Disclaimer: Don't own Harry Potter or the Song. But both are amazing.
A/N: Basically it is just a scrapbook and she is remembering from the time she met him to the time he died. Hopefully a tearjerker, it was for me when writing it but that is because I can get emotional easily.

Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you
Nymphadora Tonks woke up in a cold sweat, on the ground.
Her dreams had led her back to the day Remus died. The way he reached out to her, took her in a hug, saw the green light coming at her, threw her to the side, and took the spell for her.
She had gone after his killer for revenge. But when she couldn't defeat them, she ran back to him and cried.
That is how I know you
Go on
Knowing she wouldn't fall back asleep, she found the scrapbook that Ginny gave her and looked at it.
Far across the distance
And spaces between us
The first memory was how they met
She was going to her first Order meeting, ever. She didn't know why, but she was excited. This was weird, because the order meant Voldemort and fighting till the death for the better of the world.
She walked into the building with Kingsley and Mad-eye. She saw the dining room, and stopped surprised by all the food. Mad-eye and Kingsley had left her behind. She took a step when she tripped over something. Prepared for the crash, she didn't feel one. Instead she felt strong arms grab her and lift her up.
"You must be the newcomer I've heard about from Sirius."
"Sirius!" she said excitedly, "Wait, what has he told you?"
"Only that you're his clumsy cousin."
"What a way to first meet someone, for them to know you're clumsy and to trip."
He laughed a hearty laugh, "I'm Remus Lupin."
"Nymphadora Tonks, but call me Tonks, or you will never have children."
"I can't have children when I don't have a girlfriend, and there's something else."
"What?"
"Now's not the time."
So they walked into the dining room."
Her heart had somewhat fluttered when he said he didn't have a girlfriend, but it also left her curious to the other reason.
