Remus, James, Sirius and Peter were visiting Andromeda Tonks. It was the only member of Sirius' family who get along with him, so when she invited them to Nymphadora's birthday, they agreed. And now, Remus was regretting it. Dora was an adorable metamorphmagus girl, but she also was really annoying.

Little Tonks had quite a crush for the werewolf. She followed him everywhere, not living him alone one second. And of course, his friends noticed that and mocked him.

"How's your girlfriend, Remus?" asked James, teasing him.

Remus only snorted and left the room only to find Sirius.

"It looks like you're going to be my cousin-in-law in a few years, mate."

Remus couldn't stand it anymore. He took his butterbeer and left the house to go in the garden. Tonks followed him.

"Remus, can you play with me?" she asked.

"No"

He was usually calm, but not this time.

"You're annoying me," he added.

But the little girl didn't seem to mind his attitude. She sat next to him.

"Okay, if you prefer, we can stay here."

Remus rolled his eyes, there was no way to get rid off her. He decided on not speaking, she would get bored, thus leave and left him alone. Or so he hoped. She had talk for ten minutes on her own. He didn't reply, letting her go with her tales. She also showed him how she could change her appearance. It seemed that her hair had a tendency to turn bright red anytime he spoke to her.

"Look at my nose! It's like a pig nose," she said. He didn't look at her, he was just wishing for that 'party' to end.

Andromeda seeing Remus distress, tried to help him, dragging Dora in the kitchen.

Peter joined a lonely Remus.

"She's quite annoying. She followed you everywhere," he stated.

"Yep." Remus was glad that Peter didn't join Prongs and Padfoot with the teasing game.

"You'll be free soon, the portkey will be active in thirty minutes," Wormtail said before leaving.

The peaceful moment lasted ten minutes. Then Dora came back, a bottle of pumpkin juice in one hand, a chocolate cake in the other.

"Do you want some?"

"No, thanks"

"You seem bored, you want to play with me?"

"No, thanks"

"Okay." She sat next to him again, and ate her cake. Some would have thought that while she was eating, Remus would have been peaceful, but no, she didn't stop talking, and gesturing with her hands, throwing cake and juice over Remus.

He tried to move and sat a little further in the garden, but she followed him everywhere. A real stalker.

"Honey," said Ted Tonks, "you should live Remus alone. He probably prefers shy girls. Come with me." Ted winked at his daughter.

"Oh!" she exclaimed before leaving with her father.

The time of repiste lasted until the marauders left. Remus thought it was the end of troubles, when he left the house, but it really only started.
