A/T: This is going to be a short story, 5 or 6 chapters. I hope you're going to enjoy it :)

J.K. Rowling owns Harry Potter and these characters.

Oh God.

OhGodOhGodOhGodOhGodOhGod

The mantra kept repeating in her head while she paced the length of their small bathroom.

Oh God.

She was pregnant. Again.

She should be happy about it. And she is. But she's also scared. She was nervous about her husband's reaction to the news.

Last time, when she announced they will have a baby, he left her for a month. For a month!

Remus obviously returned but she didn't forgive him so easily. He slept on the couch for weeks but she eventually made him sleep with her in their bed. As much she was angry with him for leaving, she missed falling asleep with his warmth, his strong arms and his breath on her neck.

It wasn't that Remus didn't want to be a father, quite the opposite really. He loved children and that's what made him such a great professor.

He was afraid, convinced almost, his child would be like him. A werewolf. And if the child wouldn't be a werewolf, Remus thought it will be ashamed to have a father like him.

But Teddy, their son, born two weeks before the final battle, was neither. He wasn't a werewolf. He only seemed a bit more moody around that time but Tonks found that perfectly fine. Teddy, now five years old, couldn't be more proud of his father. He adores him, really. Tonks can't see a reason one wouldn't adore Remus. He's kind, handsome, shy, very sarcastic, handsome, intelligent…

He proved to be a great father. When Teddy was first born, Remus was scared of holding him, even more so than Tonks was, and she was dead clumsy. But once he took him in his arms, he couldn't put him down.

Nymphadora loved watching her husband and son. Whether they were playing with Teddy's toys, Remus reading him books, cuddling in front of the fire… they looked absolutely adorable together.

So if Remus was so great with kids, and lycanthropy can't be passed on, why was Tonks so nervous about telling Remus?

What if he doesn't want anymore kids?

What if he's going to leave her again?

What if-

„Dora? Are you okay, love?" came Remus' voice from the other side of the door. She must have been in the bathroom for some time if he's worrying about her.

„Y-yeah, everything's fine." Tonks lied, putting her positive pregnancy test in her bag. She opened the door. There was Remus, looking slightly worried.

„You were in there for 45 minutes. I got scared."

„I'm fine. I just… got lost in the thoughts… Dad…" she trailed off. She knew Remus understood what she meant. It wasn't a complete lie and that's why it was believable. Even after five years, she still missed her father who had been killed in the war.

„I'm sorry." He put his arms around her, hugging her to his chest.

„It's okay. I'm just sad he didn't get to meet Teddy." She mumbled in his sweater, her arms around her husband's middle. Tonks felt Remus nod, implying he understood why she was upset.

„He may not be here, but he's watching over us." He whispered softly in her ear.

„Just like Sirius. And James. And Lily." She whispered back. Remus also had moments where he got lost in memories and thoughts about his lost best friends. They both lost someone in the war but at least they got each other and Teddy in return.

„Yes. Just like them." He mumbled, more to himself than her.

She pulled her head from his chest and looked up at him.

„I love you." She kissed him, but pulled away before he got the chance to respond.

„Are you sure you're okay?" Remus asked.

„I am. I'm fine." She replied, but there was still worry written on her husband's face.

„Is Teddy awake?" She quickly changed the theme.

„Yes, he is actually. He woke up and came to kitchen just before I came up here. He's eating breakfast."

„Good. Good."

„Are you hungry? You've been awake for some time and you haven't eaten yet."

„I am actually. I'll come down soon, let me just change real quick." She answered, showing him that she's still in her pajamas.

„Okay." He gave her a kiss on her forehead and went out of the room.

She sighed.

It's going to be fine. Breathe in. Breathe out. He's going to be happy. Breathe in. Breathe out. He's not going to leave you again. Breathe in. Breathe out.

Calmer than before, she quickly changed into jeans and one of Remus' sweaters and went to the kitchen.

As soon as she entered their yellow colored kitchen, the smell of pancakes and chocolate syrup hit her nose.

„Mum!" Teddy cried happily at the sight of his mother.

„Morning, love," Tonks ruffled his green hair as she went to sit at the table. „Sleep well?"

„Yes, I did." The five-year-old answered, stuffing pancakes into his mouth. Beside him, Remus was reading the Daily Prophet and drinking tea out of his favorite cup, on which it said: 'World's best husband and father.' Tonks and Teddy gave him that for Christmas last year and he drank out of it everyday since.

Tonks put two pancakes on her plate, added some chocolate syrup and started eating.

„Are you excited about spending the weekend with Harry and Ginny?"

„Yes! I can't wait! Harry said we're gonna visit the Muggle Zoo and see all the animals!" Teddy was jumping in his chair from excitement.

„Sounds like you're going to have a great time." said Remus, folding the paper and putting it aside.

„What are you and mum gonna do?"

„We don't really have anything planned," Remus said, glancing at his wife „we are probably just gonna stay at home."

Teddy nodded.

„When is Harry picking you up, Ted?" she asked.

„In about an hour."

„Have you packed everything then?"

„Yes, mum. Dad helped me yesterday while you were at work."

„Okay."

They continued eating breakfast while talking about their week.

Later that day, Remus and Dora were in their living room. Remus was reading a book, sitting in his favorite armchair. Dora was laying on the couch- eyes closed, listening to records playing quietly. Her husband was eyeing her every now and then, wondering what happened that she suddenly acts so weird.

Truth is, she still isn't sure how he's going to react to her pregnancy. Tonks knows she has to tell him soon. He's already worried about her having morning sickness two days in a row. She just shrugged and said it was just a stomach bug.

Tonks told herself that he's going to be ecstatic about having another baby. Remus is less self-deprecating than before, he loves being a father and Teddy adores him. Lycanthropy can't be passed to someone unless they're bitten… Why is it so hard for her to believe that?

Probably because she's scared Remus will leave again and if he does, she's not sure if she's going to be able to forgive him again. He said he won't leave her when they first started dating. But he didn't keep that promise.

„l don't care, Remus!"

„But I do, Dora. If I hurt you, I could never forgive myself. I'm doing this to protect you."

„You won't hurt me. I'm an Auror, Remus. I can take care of myself!"

„You'll get over me. I'm sure it's just a crush you have."

„It's not a crush and I won't get over you! Please Remus! I lo-"

„Don't. Please just…don't. I have to go."

And then he came back and promised, vowed he won't leave her. But he did it again.

„Don't do this, Remus! It's going to be fine. We're going to take care of our child and we're going to love it and nothing is going to happen to it."

„How can you be so sure of that, Dora?What if it's like me? What if it transforms inside you and it kills you? I can't be here and know I did that to you. The child is going to be like me, I know it."

„You can't know that! There's no evidence of that happening."

„There's no evidence because it never happened before! Dora, my kind don't breed! It's safer for you if I won't be here."

„Safer? SAFER? HOW IS IT GOING TO BE SAFER IF YOU WON'T BE HERE! WHAT IF DEATH EATERS COME HERE AND ATTACK! I CAN'T PROTECT THE BABY ALONE! I NEED YOU! THE BABY NEEDS YOU!"

„I'm sorry."

He came back, again. This time, it was Harry who made him change his mind, for what Tonks was very thankful.

But if Remus left her again, she doesn't know how she's gonna cope with that. It's going to break her. And that's what she's so afraid of.

„Dora, love?" Remus' voice interrupted her thoughts. She opened her eyes slowly and turned to look at him. His book was closed and on the table in front of him, his hands folded in his lap.

„Yes?"

He seemed to hesitate with his next words. Remus opened his mouth a few times.

„Come here." He tapped his thighs with his hands, indicating she sat in his lap. She lazily got up, and with five steps she was in front of her husband. Tonks sat in his lap and put one of her arms around his neck, the other on his chest. His hands immediately went around her waist, and held tight. He nuzzled her neck and chin.

„You smell nice." mumbled Remus.

„Thank you," she chuckled softly.

He looked up at her, his eyes roaming over her face. He had a small smile playing on his lips.

„I'm taking you on date. Tonight."

„What? A date?" he nodded „Why so sudden? It's not an anniversary or anything."

„Sudden? We've been married for five years and dated for a year before that. It's not sudden."

She traced the scars on his face and his small stubble.

„Yes but, we've never been on a date before."

„That's exactly why I want to take you on one. Now that Teddy is spending the weekend over at Harry's, it's perfect."

„I don't know…"

„Oh come on!" Remus pleaded like a little child „I can't spend the whole weekend in this house! I'm going to become crazy!"

Dora's husband was very determined to go on a date. It was unbelievable as he didn't want her to be seen with him in public. But that was during the war, when being associated with a werewolf was dangerous. But now, with minister Shacklebolt's help, Remus (and werewolves in general) could find a job and live a life like normal wizards, not outcasts. Remus works as Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts again, and he couldn't be happier. He gets provided with Wolfsbane every month and finally has nice clothes. He looks much healthier and less gray. He's happy now.

„Oh okay." She finally decided. He grinned and kissed her.

„Right then…Be ready by 6pm. I'm going to Diagon Alley, I need to go to Gringotts."

„Sure," She kissed a scar on his cheek.

„Where are we going?"

„Ah, that's a secret!" Remus said, smirking at his wife.

„If you say so…"

„You're going to like it, I swear."

And he kissed her again, this time harder and tightening his hands in her waist. One slid down to her hip. Both of hers were around his neck, playing with the little hairs he had there. When she felt his tounge lightly brushing over her lips, she moaned and turned to straddle him in the chair, earning a moan from him.

The kissing went on for a few minutes when he broke the kiss.

Breathing hard, he managed to say something.

„If we don't stop now, I'm going to have to take you to the bedroom, and there will be no date tonight."

She immediately jumped from his lap.

"Well then Professor, you better go now so that won't happen."

Remus got up from the armchair too, gave his wife one last kiss, and then entered the fireplace . „The Leaky Cauldron!" and disappeared in the green flames.

Tonks sighed and looked at the clock. 4pm. She had two hours to get ready for her date with Remus.

„I'm going to tell him tonight." She decided and went to their bedroom, only tripping twice.
