Hello everyone! This is my first attempt at Harry Potter fanfiction. Yikes.

Nota Bene: I don't own the rights to Harry Potter, Remus Lupin, Nymphadora Tonks, OR Teddy Lupin. Just to clear things up, I'm also not JK Rowling. I'm nowhere near as amazing as she is.


-Miles Away-

She stared at the glassy road, slick with rain. Tears dripped off of her nose, leaked from her eyes.
"Come back..." she whispered. "Please..."

She knew that he couldn't hear her. He was long gone. It had been six months. Six long months. She wished he would come back and apologize. Then maybe they could be a family again. Maybe their unborn child wouldn't grow up without a father.

It was too late for that. She knew it. He had left, and would never come back. She started to cry in earnest. She missed him so much, it hurt.

Why did he have to go? Why couldn't he stay? Was he mad at her? Did she do something wrong?

She was so scared.

What would happen to their child? The poor thing would grow up fatherless. How could he do such a thing? How could he be so selfish?

Did he really love her?

That question had haunted her for six months. If he loved her, he would have stayed with her, part of her brain whispered. But maybe he was leaving to protect her and their child, the other half reasoned. She placed her hands over her ears, trying to silence the voices.

"Go away!" she sobbed, "Just go away!"

Why did it have to be like this? They used to be so happy. She remembered the way his face would light up when he saw her. She remembered the way he used to hold her hand as the walked down Diagon Alley.

She remembered everything, and it was killing her.

Nymphadora Tonks-Lupin was broken, and the only person who could fix her was a million miles away.


AN: I hope you enjoyed the story!
