A/N - This story had been itching in me for some time so I hope you enjoy! 3 I plan on having it go very long so I hope you stick with it till it's finished. Though, if you do not I enjoyed writing it anyway. Reviews are good but not everything. I just hope you like it.

The man paced in the sitting room, wringing his hands and muttering aimlessly under his breath. He would occasionally shutter and silently cry. The sound of screaming issued from the bedroom. The man placed his hands over his scarred face and sobbed. How much longer could he take this torture? Constantly wondering, constantly worrying. He sat on the worn sofa and rocked himself back and forth slowly and gently. It will be alright. Everything will be alright he told himself.
The sounds of screaming ceased, and were now replaced with the sound of a baby's cry. The man jumped up in time for the bedroom door to swing open and a beautiful black haired woman to bound out gracefully.
"Remus, it's a boy!" Lupin fell to his knees with fresh tears of joy falling down his face. Andromeda fell down next to him and wrapped her arms around his neck as they sobbed in unison. She finally patted Remus on the head and said, "Let's go see him." Lupin got slowly to his feet for fear of fainting. He approached the door and peered carefully in, letting this beautiful scene unfold before him. Tonks was in their bed holding a small bundle in her arms with tears cascading down her rosy face. Her hair cast a fervent pink glow on everything in the vicinity. She was absolutely radiant. Lupin rushed to her side and sobbed into her neck. He looked up into her sparkling blue eyes and felt like nothing in the world could ever possibly go wrong. Not when they were this happy. He looked down at his beautiful son. He was blonde and blue eyed. His whole body was pink with newness. Remus couldn't think of anything ever being this small yet so miraculous. The way his son breathed, the way his hands were clenched into tiny fists, the way every one of his features was so unique. Tonks held his son toward him. His heart gushed with joy. Lupin carefully picked him up and held him close to his chest. It was truly amazing. Him and Tonks formed into this unique little baby. His baby. His warm body breathed slowly as he rested in his father's arms. Lupin set his son back into his lovely wife's lap. He leaned down and kissed Tonks slowly on the lips. Andromeda walked in carrying a tray with tea.
"Have you two picked out a name yet?"
"Ted," Remus and Nymphadora said in unison, "Teddy Jr." Andromeda set down the tea on the night stand and put her hand to her heart.
"Your father would be so proud." Andromeda wept. Remus went over to her and pulled her into a tight hug. When he finally let go he said,
"I need to go tell everyone! I'll be back soon." Lupin bounded out the door and through the lawn past the protective charms where he finally diapparated.
Sorry this chapter was incredibly short. The first couple chapters will be short but then they should get longer. If you took time out of your day to read this you deserve a box of chocolate. Unless of course your allergic. Then you can just have any other sweet you desire. Please review. Criticism is highly welcomed. I am an aspiring author so I need all the help I can get! Compliments are good as well.
Au revoir
