When the song ended, the kids began partying listening to music, the DJ which happened to be Kojak was playing, drinks and food provided. Most of the professors leaving, Remus had left after about 10 minutes, and was about to head up the first floor steps, when someone called him "Wait!" a female voice called. Remus turned to see Katy there, free of make up and outfits. She stood there in a baggy green sweatshirt, her hair back to its dirty blonde color, she wore hip huggers and flip flops. She looked about his age without the make up on, which reminded Remus of the muggle band 'Kiss' all the old guys rocking it out, but without the make up they looked like someone's grandpa. She looked around his age, and wore a light blush on her cheeks, with light pink eyeshadow. "Arent you staying to sign the books?" Katy asked walking up to him, "I forgot about it.. but yes I'll be back down" Remus said simply. "Good.." Katy said, Remus was about to turn around, when Katy took his hand tracing the same scar she had many years ago, "I've missed you" she whispered. Remus smiled, "I missed you too.. more than you'll ever know" he muttered. Katy looked up at him, "You loved me all that time.. yet never told me?" Katy asked. Remus nodded, "yea well.." he trailed off, tears forming in his eyes. Katy leaned up gently pressing her lips against his, "I love you.." she whispered. Remus looked at her in shock, "I know I havent been around a lot but as of tonight I'm retiring.. from the music business.. and I was wondering if we could spend some time together.. I cant go through this alone.. after reading the book.. I realized how much I miss all of them, Alice, Lily, Dorcas, Edgar, You, James, Sirius, Frank.." Katy said tears forming in her eyes slowly dripping down her cheeks, Remus reached up wiping them off with his finger tips. "and I realized.. just how much I need you.." Katy whispered, "I was so afraid after reading about the department of mysteries last year.. when Sirius died.. I cried for three days straight and then I automatically regretted every thought running through my head.. that told me 'Atleast it wasnt Remus" Katy said crying by this time, Remus hugged him to her "Shh its alright.. I'm here now okay? You dont have to go through it alone.. I'm here, I'll always be here.. Sirius and the others are watching over us right now in spirit.. okay?" Remus whispered soothingly, Katy looked up at him, "When the whole world is against us.. how do we fight it?" she whispered in return. "When destiny calls you, you must be strong I may not be with you, but you gotta hold on They'll see in time, I know We'll show them together" Remus said quoting the last song she sung in his honor. Katy smiled slightly, "So what about the offer?" she whispered, "Which one?" Remus asked perking a brow, "Could we spend some time together now that I've retired? or will be anyways.." Katy muttered, "How about we spend forever together?" Remus asked looking into Katy's eyes as she smiled, "that sounds about right" she said as they kissed again. Harry coming out to get them, and seeing them and grinned. "Professor.. they're rooting for autographs" Harry said. Katy looked up and looked at Harry, "Ruddy Hell they werent kidding.. were they?" she said simply. Harry laughed outright, "Let me guess James' twin but with Lily's eyes.." he said, Katy nodded "and buddy never try and tame the hair.. seriously trust me wont work" Katy said smiling, and extended a hand "Katy Watson" she said, Harry shook her hand then looked to Remus and laughed again. Remus looked to his student and stuck his tongue out, "Oh Honestly.. Grow up" Harry mimicked, Katy gaped at him then looked to Remus "Thats it!" They said in unison, chasing Harry into the great hall, stopping by the door instantly, Harry standing infront of the two, who were holding hands as they noticed tons of camera flashes. "You know.. we should adopt Harry.. I mean not officially but get custody of him" Katy whispered, "You mean?" Harry asked turning around looking between the two of them and they nodded. Harry laughed hugging both of them, the cameras flashing still but none of them cared. "Well now that the two stars of the book 'The Marauders: Life Unscripted' are here.. they can sign autographs.. Remus Lupin and Kathyrn Watson" Dumbledore said through the mic, "KATY!" Remus, Harry and Katy called in unison, Dumbledore grinned as the two of them walked up on stage, Harry walking off to find Hermione.
