"Oof!"

"Tonks? Are you okay?"

Great! Tonks thought to herself, you come to tell him you're in love with him and you trip over your own boots!

"I'm fine Remus," she said as she took his hand, "It wasn't the first time I've fallen on your floor."

Remus smiled, "And not the last either."

Tonks sighed, dusting herself off, "You're probably right. As always."

"So…what did you want?"

To snog you senseless "Just wanted to tell you they changed the meeting time."

"Really?"

"No. I just wanted somebody to talk to."

"Hmm," Remus said questioningly.

Tonks prayed she wasn't blushing, "Remus, I'll be blunt."

"Please do."

"I just wanted to tell you that I've finally realized that I love you, and wondering if you would like to go out for a drink sometime."

No. That wouldn't happen, Tonks thought, sitting on the couch in her small house. She had been deciding how she would tell Remus how she felt, but she wasn't going anywhere fast. Little did she know, she had no hope of failing.
