God damn short and cruddy chapter yet again xD but I wanted to get this done for the rather fabulous Kathy. My inspiration for this. Just wanna thank her! wouldn't have done it without you! :)

They both sat there, in a blissful silence, neither one of them wishing to speak and break it. Remus Lupin was holding Nymphadora Tonks!..and neither of them could comprehend how the situation came to be. By this time her hair had changed from a fuchsia colour, to a rather vibrant electric blue. Sure, she was enjoying this but it still felt very strange. The young woman tensed up and his hand lowered to her waist..what is he doing?..Did he care more for her than he had let on?..Tonks finally decided to confront him. Weather he was the man she loved or not. She simply could not let a man hold her like this without ensuring his feelings were honest and true..if he did have any towards her that is.

"Remus.."

He snapped back to reality and removed himself from her waist. "I'm sorry.." His cheeks flushed scarlet. " I know you are an honourable woman and would not wish to be with a..monster like me.." Tonks looked at him bewildered. So he DID like her. "besides, I am too old, too poor, too dangerous -"

"hush now!" Nymphadora whispered, placing a gentle finger upon his lips. Removing it once he had nodded. She turned to face him, her eyes transfixed with his own. Her hand slipped into his and he squeezed it gently. Biting back a blush, she whispered gently into his ear. "You like me?.."

"Yes" he mumbled truthfully. He did like her. She was so kind a gentle and those ever changing eyes were always full of fire. He couldn't help but gaze at her. Tonks was ever so beautiful. He had always thought that.

"Good, because I like you too." Her fingers were running through his hair now. Caressing the scars and marks upon his skin, not being bothered by them whatsoever. Her face only inches away from his. The look on Remus's face was priceless. Obviously it would be. After all, the love of his life did just confess her attraction towards him.

"You do?.." He felt his limp tremble slightly. Worried that she would turn round and tell him that she was only joking and then leave him in his misery once more. He smiled warmly at the words that followed.

"Oh god yes Remus! More than you know!.." Tonks's hands were now grasping onto his face, her lips contracting an retracting, hesitating to make the first move.

"But I am too old, too poor, too-"

"shut up and kiss me.." He did not hesitate to obey this command. At first, he kissed her softly, gently caressing her pretty face, pulling her body closer to his and cuddling her once more with the blanket. Remus found that he could get enough of her warmth. His mouth had once again crashed down onto hers yet again in a passionate kiss, massaging her lips with his own. He pulled back, studying her, holding back a small laugh as her hair changed colours rapidly. All worries or doubts about their relationship seemed to slip away as they embraced each other in their arms.

"I think I love you nymphadora.."

"..I love you too.." She reached up to kiss him once more and nuzzled her head into his chest. That was only time that she had ever allowed somebody to call her Nymphadora..
