Pairing: R. Lupin and N. Tonks

…………

Lupin looked up to see who was saying his name. Surprised to see it was Tonks. Getting up he started to walk away. 'I'm sure this would remind you of something…' he thought.

"No Remus wait!" said Tonks trying to stop him.

"Ha, so now you must know how it feels having to stop someone from walking out on you!" he said coldly taking his arm away from her. 'Yeah you better know how it feels!'

"I know…I'm sorry for everything... for the way I've been acting, for that slap for—"

"For putting me through hell? For putting me through guilt trips? For not understanding me?" he said as he cut her off.

"Well yes, but you have to understand I mean this isn't entirely my fau--"

"And it's also my fault too? For what? For not saying I felt the same way?" he said as he cut her off again.

"Why are you acting like this? It's not like I did anything wrong while I was away for what, two weeks?" she said with a stern look.

"Oh you didn't do anything wrong did you? Of course you did something wrong!" he spat at her.

'Maybe I was wrong to think that I should tell you the truth...' he thought.

"Okay…then tell me what I did wrong? Seeing that you are soo perfect!" Tonks asked turning away from him.

"Oh you really want to know what you did wrong? Fine, while you were out in that hazardous whatever that place is called, we were all worrying and searching for you!" Lupin said throwing his hands into the air.

"Worrying? You were worrying about me? What a miracle! Usually I didn't think you'd give two shits about me!" said Tonks.

Ignoring her Lupin continued and said, "And while you were out making out in a restaurant I was looking all over for you! And seems like I wasted my time doing that!" said Lupin turning away from Tonks.

"Y-you saw that? No it's not what it looks like it's--"

"It's not what it looks like? Stop saying the famous line that everyone says when they're caught doing something. It is what it looks like. Simple. A man and you kissing…What's so hard to understand about that?"

"No really it isn't wh—" Tonks began to say before getting cut off yet again by Lupin.

"You know the only reason I was looking for you is because I wanted to tell you the truth. Yes I do have feelings for you and I wanted to apologize to you as well! But no, I see you've gotten over me and I don't think I love you anymore" shouted Lupin. Man was he confusing himself.

"OMG! What is it with you? First you say you don't love me and now your saying it and then you say you don't? WHICH ONE IS IT?" shouted Tonks back.

"I don't know and it doesn't matter anyways since your doing fine in Hazardous Grove and already have another guy to test your feelings on and to make out with!" shouted Lupin.

"You know that's the one thing I hate about you! You assume too much and jump to conclusion in less then a second!" retorted Tonks.

Lupin had had enough of this. He started to walk away, but then Tonks held on to him trying to stop him. "LET GO OF ME!" he screamed.

"NO! YOU KNOW I LOVE YOU AND I WOULDN'T LOVE ANYONE ELSE! PLEASE BELIEVE ME!" screamed Tonks.

"WHY? WHY SHOULD I? THAT MOMENT IN THE RESTURANT IS ENOUGH TO CHANGE MY MIND! I DON'T THINK I'D WANT TO LOVE A WITCH WHO CAN'T MAKE UP HER MIND!" and with that he forced himself out of her grip and apparated to a near by bar. 'Funny I don't drink…but damn do I need to get rid of all these feelings of anger, sadness and whatnot out of me…'

Three shots of Vodka please!

All he did was ask for more and more and more drinks.

"One shot of tequila please!"

and by the time you know it this is what happened…

"Wun biiggg glasb ub beeeerrr!" asked a drunken Lupin.

"Sir I really think you should stop!" said the bartender.

"ARREE YOU THRE-THREEATENNINGG ME-UH?" said Lupin grabbing the shirt of the bartender.

"Sir, please calm down!"

Just in time, Sirius showed up and a bit relieved to have found Lupin.

"REMUS! NO!" Sirius shouted before stopping Lupin from punching the bartender. Silently casting a sleeping spell on Lupin he carried him out of the bar. 'Gosh you never got drunk before! And how many pounds do you weigh? So heavy! ARGH!' Sirius thought.

Meanwhile Tonks went to the Burrow to see Mrs. Weasley. She was in desperate need of someone to talk to.

"Molly…it's all my fault (sniff) it's all my fault!" she said as she cried onto the shoulder of Mrs. Weasley.

"Tonks dear…what happened now?" asked Mrs. Weasley leading them to the couch.

"He said he loved me! He admitted it! But then he saw me and this man named Ivan kissing in a restaurant and Remus suddenly stopped loving me or I DON'T KNOW! He's so confusing!" said Tonks and kept crying.

"Really—wait who's Ivan? Kissing? What on earth were you doing with a wizard? I thought you were staying in your house all locked up?" asked Mrs. Weasley.

"Ivan was a wizard I met and he took me to dinner and he well sort of came on to me and started kissing me and I don't know, I guess (Sniff) while Remus was looking for me he spotted us at the restaurant! Ohhhhhh!" she let out a cry. "I'm so stupid!"

"No dear you aren't! I mean I understand you would look for someone else to help ease your pain for Remus…But now that we know he does feel the same way we will try to convince him no matter what that what happened in the restaurant with Ian—"

"Ivan, Molly"

"Yes Ivan, that it didn't mean anything…" assured Mrs. Weasley.

"You know how stubborn he is! How he wont listen. No he's just doing this to get back at what I did to him!" cried out Tonks.

"Come on let's get to bed…We'll talk more when morning comes. We'll sort this out don't worry darling." Assured Mrs. Weasley.

"FINALLY!" shouted Sirius happy to get home. Laying Lupin down on his bed, Sirius heard Lupin mumble out something.

"Cecelia….what…I….do? Tonks….love...her…" he said in his sleep.

"Learn to love her Remus, learn to love her…" said Sirius before walking out of the room.

Sirius didn't know what had happened tonight but it was obvious that Tonks had shown up and they yet again had an argument. Could these two people be so stubborn and blind?
