Remus and Tonks - 'Till Death Do Us Part

A Valentines Day Special! Hope you enjoy!

Disclaimer: Sadly,I do not own Tonks(Nymphadora) or Remus.

Tonks sat on the edge of her bed, unable to sleep. Thinking, wondering, geting lost in her own mind were things she was starting to do these days, ever since Remus broke up with her.

"Horrible timing too, right before Valentines Day. ," she muttered, pacing the floor. It didn't really matter that she didn't have a Valentine. That wasn't what she really cared about.

She got up from her bed and walked into her kitchen.

" I doesn't do any good to mope!" Tonks thought. " There must have been a reason. Did I annoy him? Did I do something wrong? Or does he just not love me anymore?"

She put her kettle on the stove, and started to heat up the water. Recently, The Ministry put her on the job of living among the muggles and studying their habits. That meant, she had to live in an apartment and do the things muggles did for a while. Rumus had gotten the same job and everything was going so well-for a while.

Tonks thought this over for a while.

" Insuferable jerk!" she decided " How could I ever have thought to go out with that man. He doesn't care about me and I knew it! How could I have been so stupid. WHY?

The kettle whistled shrilly, but Tonks wasn't listening. She was busy laying on the floor, banging her fists, and crying her heart out.

Remus sat at his desk, rolling a marble between his hands, thinking about the one he loved most. Back and forth, back and forth, everything was always the same, you could count on the marble to roll back into his palm then roll back the other way. Back and forth, back and forth.

" She just couldn't understand why we can't be together, why I'm such a danger to her. I had to break up with her. She just didn't understand. WHY NYMPHADORA COULDN'T YOU UNDERSTAND!"

Suddenly he used too much force, and the marble went flying off the table.

"Why couldn't things have worked out?" he whispered.

As Remus bent down to get the marble, he went into a shadow. He slowly came back up, and you could see a tear rolling down his cheek.

" I can't stay here", thought Tonks.

" I have to go", Remus said to himself.

They both fast walked up the street, coming from different directions.

Tonks stopped. There was Lupin, about 10 meters away.

Remus stared. There was Nympadora, standing still, staring at him.

They slowly ran toward eachother, and embraced.
