Chapter 2
Remus paced up and down in his room, ten minuets till his wedding. He was a nervous wreck and he wasn't getting any calmer.
"Moony Relax" A voice sounded from the doorway and Remus turned to find Tonks standing there.
"Tonks how can I relax?" Remus pleaded as he went to the window to look out to the alter. Harry stood there, apparently lost in thought and Remus smiled at the sight of his soon-to-be husband. Tonks came up behind Remus and softly said,
"Harry loves you and you love Harry. Thats why you should relax" Remus smiled and replied,
"Yeah your right" Tonks looked at her watch and gave a soft shriek.
"Come on its time" Remus was dragged from the room at Snape Manor and to the huge, Victorian doors. Remus watched as Tonks walked down to her place up at the alter and then the music began and the chatter died down. Everyone found their seats and the doors were thrown wide open for Remus. As he took his first steps down the aisle, Remus smiled brightly and thought,
"This is it Remus". harry looked absolutely radiant in his dress robes of gold and red. Being Gryffindors those were the colors of both of their dress robes. Remus started to blush lightly, because he was still trying to figure out how he could have asked for anyone better than the man waiting for him. Harry met him and took his arm and as they turned back to the minister, harry whispered,
"Hey sexy werewolf" Remus blushed at that and then the minister cleared his throat.
"we are gathered here today to join these two lovers in holy matrimony. These two men have decided to write their own vows, which they shall now recite." Harry turned to Remus and Remus saw that Harry had tears in his eyes.
"i never really knew if i could actually be with you before this. You are and were my parents and godfather's best friend and you were my friend and mentor. I was too blind before the end of the war to see that you were and will always remain, the only one for me. I love you with all my heart Remmy. I can't wait for the rest of our lives" Everyone gasped when Harry mentioned the war, for Harry doesn't like talking about it. Remus had to wipe a few tears from his eyes before he spoke.
"Harry everyday i wake up and think of you. Every night i go to sleep, thinking of only you. You have slowly become my entire world and i am truly thankful, no grateful, that you are the man I'm marrying. You have the night stars in your eyes and the sun in your laughter. I love you with all my heart and that will never change." Many people were silently crying by the time the minister spoke again.
"Since there are no objections, i feel we should continue." The rings were brought forth and Snape and Tonks each took one. Remus and Harry grasped hands, giving each other reassuring smiles.
"Do you,Remus Jackson Lupin, take this man as your husband, promising to love him in sickness and in health, promising to protect him in the darkest of times? Do you so swear to love him, till death do you part?" Remus took the ring from Tonks, slid it on Harry's finger, looked Harry deep in the eyes and said,
"I do" The minister turned to Harry next.
Do you,Harry James Potter, take this man as your husband, promising to love him in sickness and in health, promising to protect him in the darkest of times? Do you so swear to love him, till death do you part?" Snape handed Harry the ring and as Harry slipped the ring slowly onto Remus' finger, he said in an almost whisper,
"I do" By that time. Molly Weasley and Fleur Delecour-Weasley were sobbing loudly but no really cared. Everyone were crying lightly as the last words of the ceremony were said.
" I know pronounce you husband and husband. You may kiss your husband" Remus wrapped an arm around Harry's waist, grabbed one of Harry's hand and kissed him with everything he was worth. Cheers erupted behind them and just as quickly as the kiss started, it had ended and Remus and Harry Lupin-Potter turned to the guests.
"I love you Harry" Remus whispered as they walked down the aisle together and out to the garden. Harry kissed him on the cheek and then turning to the crowd he yelled,
"WHOS READY TO PARTY?" Tonks came up to them with Snape and together they said,
"Not so fast. You have the first dances remember" Harry smiled wickedly and said to Remus,
"wait till you here the song I picked out for you" Remus led Harry out onto the dance floor as the music began. Everyone stood around the dancing couple, while one of the most meaningful songs to harry played.
Watched my life pass me by
in the rearview
mirror
Pictures frozen in time
are becoming clearer
I
don't wanna waste another day
stuck in the shadow of my mistakes -
yeah
(Chorus)
Cause I want you
and I feel
you
crawling underneath my skin
Like a hunger, like a burnin
to find a place I've never been
Now I'm broken, and I'm
faded
I'm half the man I thought I would be
But you can have
what's left of me.
(Verse 2)
I've been dying
inside
little by little
Nowhere to go
I'm goin outta my
mind
An endless circle
runnin from myself until
You gave
me a reason for standing still
(Chorus)
And I want
you
and I feel you
crawling underneath my skin
Like a
hunger, like a burnin
to find the place I've never been
Now
I'm broken, and I'm faded
I'm half the man I thought I would be
But you can have
what's left of me.
(Hook)
Fallin'
faster
barely breathing
Give me somethin to believe in
Tell
me it's not all in my head
Take what's left of this man
Make
me whole once again
(Chorus)
Cause I want you
and
I feel you
crawling underneath my skin
Like a hunger, like a
burnin
to find the place I've never been
Now I'm broken, and
I'm faded
I'm half the man I thought I would be
You can have,
all that's left, (yeah, yeah, yeah) what's left of me
(Outro)
I've been dying inside you see
I'm goin outta my mind
(outta my mind)
I'm just runnin' in circles all the time
Will you take what's left? x3 -- of me
I'm just runnin' in circles in my mind
Will you take what's left? x3 -- of me
Take what's left of me
"Remus" Harry whispered through the tears. Remus wiped them away with a smile.
"I know how much this meant to you, which is why i chose this particular song. It reminds you of how much i love you and that i was there to save you. Luv its just a reminder of me." The song ended and then it was time for the song Harry had picked out for Remus.
As Harry swayed Remus, he whispered,
"You can kill me for this later" In the background the music was playing and Remus' eyes widened in surprise at the lyrics.
Under a lovers'
sky
gonna be with you
and no one's gonna be around
if you
think that you won't fall
well just wait until
til the sun goes
down
underneath the starlight - starlight
there's a magical
feeling - so right
it'll steal your heart tonight
you can
try to resist
try to hide from my kiss
but you know
but you
know that you can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the dark
you'll
surrender your heart
but you know
but you know that you can't
fight the moonlight
no, you can't fight it
it's gonna get to
your heart
there's no escape from love
was a gentle
breeze
weaves it's spell upon your heart
no matter what you
think
it won't be too long
til your in my arms
underneath
the starlight - starlight
we'll be lost in the rhythm - so
right
feel it steal your heart tonight
you can try to
resist
try to hide from my kiss
but you know
but you know
that you can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the dark
you'll
surrender your heart
but you know
but you know that you can't
fight the moonlight
no you can't fight it
no matter what you
do
the night is gonna get to you
don't try then
you're
never win
part of me the starlight - starlight
there's a
magic feeling - so right
it will steal your heart tonight
you
can try to resist
try to hide from my kiss
but you know
but
you know that you can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the
dark
you'll surrender your heart
but you know
but you know
that you can't fight the moonlight
no, you can't fight it
you
can try to resist
try to hide from my kiss
but you know
don't
you know that you can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the
dark
you'll surrender your heart
but you know
but you know
that you can't fight the moonlight
no, you can't fight it
it's
gonna get to your heart
"Heres my reminder of the werewolf i fell completely crazy for" Harry whispered as after Remus gave him a lengthy kiss (which caused everyone to erupt into cheers).
"Well it fits me perfectly right?" Harry nodded and much to both of their resentment, the song ended and the real party could begin...
