"Oh, but there's one thing I forgot." And from behind his back be pulled a box "I found this one day after cleaning out Sirius's attic it was a Christmas present for you the year Lily and James died. I hope you don't mind me giving it to you instead of Sirius." Lupin said "I know it's not really the same but I found it about a year ago after he died. It was left up to Harry and I to clean out his stuff and I found this box wrapped in a ribbon with a card that said 'Eve' and I kept it for some weird reason I didn't try and return it to a jewelry store, I think that was the last bit of hope I had to hold onto."
And with that said Lupin turned the box to face Eve and lifted the cover to reveal a sliver necklace shaped like Ivy with small diamond flowers and white frosted crystal leaves to come down to a point right in the middle. Eve gasped a little at the shining ornament as she reached out to touch it Lupin said "But that's just from Sirius. I had known Sirius had gotten that for you and well I went out and bought this the same time with him." And he held out a smaller rounder box Eve opened the box slowly and found a matching bracelet and earrings. Eve looked from the boxes to Remus. Her bright eyes sparkling like glass orbs from the tears that she had trickling down her soft features. Remus wiped the tears from her cheek and wrapped an arm around her waist pulled her to him and softly but strongly kissed away the final tears that she would shed that night.
Eve regained her composure wrapped up in Lupin's arms sighed and smiled a contented smile She looked up at Remus breathless and feeling truly happy for the first time in about seventeen years. And with one final kiss Remus took the necklace from the box as Eve put on the bracelet and earrings he pushed her long brown hair to one side and fastened the necklace and wrapped his arms around her asking,
"Alright Eve, you ready to go?"
"Where are we going?" She asked softly looking at her reflection in the mirror and how it didn't feel like there was something missing in her life anymore as if some long vacant hole had finally been filled.
"Nope, can't tell, it's a surprise. All I'm going to say is I have a very long memory Genevieve." Lupin said with a mysterious grin and receiving a suspicious stare from Eve.
"Should I be nervous?" She asked attentively
"Are you?" He asked continuing with his mysterious air
"I am a little." She answered eyeing him beadily
"Do you trust me?" Lupin asked with a tone of seriousness and repartee
"What kind of a silly question is that?" Eve asked in disbelief "Of course I do!" She said smiling. "Well take my hand and let's go and you'll see what my early Christmas present is for you in about three, two, one." And with a loud crack they were gone
