I felt the story needed a better closing, so here is a nice fluffy epilogue.

Thank you everyone for your kind reviews! It makes it so much easier to write when people are saying nice things to you. Especially since that was a first attempt for me.

A special thanks to imogenhm, evosmylife, J.N. Cahill, Gem Jewel, The Lady Elizabeth, and Izzy Magdalin who were my early readers. Thank you very much.

Epilogue

Remus watched Lika sleeping peacefully for a moment before slipping out of bed. He made his way to his living room and grabbed the gift with her name on it from underneath the Christmas tree.

He padded quietly back down the hall to the bedroom and sat on the bed. Remus pointed his wand at Lika and whispered "Ensemblay Lika." He watched clothes cover her naked form before wrapping his arms around her and Disapparating.

Lika felt the earth moving underneath her and felt a panic fill her chest, until she noticed the familiar pair of arms holding her tightly. She looked up into Remus' smiling mischievous gaze and cocked her eyebrows at him.

"Good morning Sunshine!" He said brightly.

"Sweetie, it's the middle of the night." She replied grumpily, though secretly she was thrilled. She loved surprises, especially Remus' surprises.

"So it is. I'm sorry but I couldn't wait until morning. Are you angry?" He asked seriously.

"Of course not, silly. Where are we going?" She said through a smile.

"Not telling. You'll have to wait. We're almost there." He said impishly.

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Lika felt her feet on the ground. She glanced around and saw that they were on the bluff overlooking Hogsmeade, the same place they had been the night they had learned each others darkest secrets.

She heard Remus behind her whispering spells and turned to see that he was conjuring up a setting much like that night so long ago. When everything was set up perfectly, he turned to her and grabbed her hand. Tugging her down to the blanket with him, he pulled her into his favorite position with her leaning her back against his chest and him resting his chin on her forehead.

"I have something for you. Since we never got to exchange gifts on Christmas day, I thought I'd give you yours now." Remus said almost shyly.

"Oh Remus!" She said happily.

He blushed slightly and pulled the wrapped gift from his robes. Remus held it in front of her so she could take it and he found himself waiting with baited breath.

Lika took it from him excitedly and shifted her position so she was facing him. She tore the wrapping paper off with the enthusiasm of a child and found herself holding a delicate snowglobe.

She held it up so she could see it better in the moonlight and felt tears of love prick her eyes. It was a snowglobe bewitched with the scene from their date in Hawaii. There was the gorgeous white-sand beach with palm trees and the peaceful ocean. Then she noticed that there were people moving around inside it. She grabbed her wand and said "Lumos." When her wand tip ignited she could see that the people were Remus and herself, swimming around chasing each other.

"Remus. It's lovely. Sweet. Thoughtful. Wonderful. Creative. Oh I'm just speechless." She said as she leaned forward and kissed him with all her heart.

"That was speechless?" He teased.

She laughed and smiled before she kissed him again.

"I don't have your gift here." She said suddenly looking serious.

"You're the only gift I need. And that's exactly what you are. A precious gift. I don't deserve you." He said as love shone brightly in his eyes.

Lika felt her eyes tear up again and gave a watery smile.

"Remus you deserve every happiness other people have. I told you once never underestimate yourself and I'm saying it again." She said.

"I don't know what I did to deserve someone so wonderful." He said as he pulled her into hug.

"Ditto." She replied.

"Lika?" He said softly into her ear.

"Yes Remus?" She whispered back, just as softly.

"When did you first know...about...your feelings for me?" He asked bashfully.

Lika pulled away from his embrace and looked him the eyes thoughtfully.

"Right here actually, that night we shared secrets." She said quietly as she watched his own eyes cloud with emotion.

"I love you more than anything." He said.

"I love you too Remus." She said before he crushed his lips down on hers, as if to prove it. Then he broke away to press a kiss to her palm. This kiss was different than any other he'd placed there before. Instead of feeling like a kiss to the soul, it felt like he was claiming her soul.

Then she realized her soul really hadn't been hers since they had met anyway. My soul was his from almost that first moment he came into my life. But I knew for sure that it was his....Once upon a moon.

Like I said, this chapter was a nice fluffy closing but don't forget to leave feedback :)
