(STILL IN FLASHBACK)

As soon as I was on the landing I tiptoed closer to the railing not wanting to be discovered. I could hear Tonks and Lupin's footsteps in the hallway below. I peeked over the railing to see Tonks stop walking right in front of Remus. Remus bumped into her "Whoa!" Remus bellowed before they fell onto the floor. I bit my sleeve to stop myself from laughing. Even when Tonks was trying to be romantic she was clumsy!

"Sorry Remus!" Tonks said as she stood up and helped him stand.

"It's alright." Remus replied. He was in a better mood tonight probably because he had two more weeks before his next transformation. I noticed that the closer to the full moon the more angry and depressed he becomes. I try to cheer him up, but it doesn't work for that long.

"Goodnight Tonks." Just as Remus was about to start climbing the stairs Tonks said, "Wait I um-"

I could see Remus smile and I wondered if he knew what was coming. He turned back around to face her. "Yes?"

'Would you um- like to or uh want to um…" Tonks looked down at her feet and took a deep breath, "Would you go on a date with me?"

At first he said nothing and I was beginning to think he would say no when he said, "I would love too, I'll see you tomorrow morning!" He began to climb the stairs so I tiptoed back down the stairs I came up. I ran through the kitchen and into the hallway. Tonks was in the same spot she had been since I ran back down. "Tonks?" I asked. Her Hair was now an odd mix of pink and green. She turned and faced me, and she had on the biggest grin I had seen in my entire life!

"AH! He said yes! As a matter of fact he said HE'D LOVE TO!"

Tonks was so excited that she was jumping up and down, and screaming much too loudly, since it was eleven o'clock on the day before Christmas Eve. "Yes I'm very excited too Tonks!" I whispered, "But we should be quiet because everyone else is asleep!" Tonks stopped bouncing and said, "Come on you have to help me pick something to wear!"

"How were not at your apartment-"Tonks reached out and grabbed my upper arm, and before I knew it we were standing in the doorway of Tonks apartment.
