Chapter 5 Telling Tonks
It was after nine a clock, Amelia was already asleep in bed, and Tonks still wasn't home. Remus sat alone on the couch waiting for Tonks to come in so he could tell her the afternoon's findings. Remus sat staring at the flames in the fireplace thinking. He must have fallen asleep because the next thing he remembered was the sun coming in through the window.
Remus sat up, rubbing the sleep from his eyes. He looked at the grandfather clock it was just after seven. Remus stood stretching, thinking that if Tonks had come in last night wouldn't he have heard her. He went down the hall stopping at the first door on the right.
The room was the color of apple blossoms and had soft, lush ivory carpet. Below the window on the opposite side of the room was an ivory color bed with a little girl sleeping under the pale pink covers with only her mousy brown hair visible. A cherry wood toy chest sat at the end of the bed open reviling a mixture of muggle and wizarding toys. On the left wall was a large picture of the family, its three occupants where sound asleep.
Remus smiled and walked down to his room. It was empty and everything looked the same as it had the day before. Remus frowned and dressed. He sat down at the desk thinking that tomorrow night he would be spending it in the Shrieking Shack, hopefully for the last time.
Remus got up and went back into the living room just as the flames in the fire turned green. Tonks stepped out of the flames and dusted her robes off. "Awfully late, aren't ya?" Remus asked causing Tonks to jump.
"Don't do that!" She yelled turning to face her husband.
"Late, aren't you?" Remus repeated.
"Things were Hell last night!" Tonks said as she walked around Remus into the kitchen. "I have to go back to work tonight."
"Why?" Remus asked as he followed his wife into the kitchen.
"I have to go track down this death eater. Did you get the book?" Tonks said opening the fridge, looking for something to eat.
"Yeah and if you wait a few minutes I'll make breakfast." Remus said leaning on the counter next to the fridge.
"That would take to long." Tonks said as she pulled out some cold pizza. She pulled out her wand said a quick spell making her pizza hot. Remus handed her a plate and she set down at the table to eat. Remus sat at the table next to Tonks while she ate.
"Um. . . .I have. . . .We need to talk!" Remus said breaking the silence.
"What about?" Tonks said looking at her husband. She hated when he said they need to talk because it always was followed by bad news.
"Amelia." Remus said simply.
"What about her?" Tonks said looking a little worried.
"Well, I took her to her appointment yesterday." Remus said.
"Well?"
"She's a werewolf." Remus said avoiding Tonks eyes.
"Well there goes Hogwarts, huh?" Tonks said.
"We don't know that." Remus said looking back at Tonks.
"Well why hasn't she transformed before?"
"Apparently when it's inherited you won't transform till your five."
"So since her birthday is the last day of the month, then the full moon in December will be the first time she transforms, right?"
"Yeah and St. Mungo's will proved both of us with the Wolfsbane until I can find someone to make it myself."
"That's good, I guess." Tonks said looking out the window over the sink.
"Well, I have some good news, too." Remus said drawing Tonks attention back to him.
"What's that?"
"She's also a metamorphmagus." Remus said with a smile.
"Great she has my gift," Tonks said standing up. And as she left the kitchen Remus sworn she added. "And your curse!"
