Chapter 5: The Lupin Family Reunion (part II)
A/N The reason I haven't wrote for so long is because I was in a long battle, and I won, I now own Harry Potter! No, not really the real reason is I had massive writers block with this chapter a lot of people have been asking about this it's not abandoned however this is the last chapter I'm doing something a bit long-term so watch out for that now enjoy the chapter.

Artemis was right, about the lunatics of the Lupin family. There was great-aunt Val who thought she could see the future and insisted on telling me that this year would bring me misfortune after she read my palms. And 3rd cousin Albert who told me about the time he and Remus went skinny-dipping in the lake behind their aunt Emma's cottage. But the worst person to attend the reunion was Elizabeth Duncan a childhood friend of Remus', who according to cousin Janet was also his first girlfriend when he was 16.
She was to say the least...stunning! Long wavy chestnut-coloured hair, she was wearing a golden yellow dress which was knee-length.
"So you're Dora? Lupin? Remus' wife?" she asked coming over with a glass of white wine in her hand, "I'm Beth, I use to live down the street, Remus and I grew up together."
"Hi, I've heard so much about you, Remus' loves to tell me about the stuff you two got up to," I lied through my teeth, because if we're being honest I'd never heard of her until a week ago.
"Really? We ended on such bad terms, he went of with James and Sirius and who was the other boy? Oh it doesn't matter, and I went off to Italy for University. We haven't seen each other since then."
That's when Katherine saved me, "Dora darling why don't you come help me with the sandwiches?"

"So you've met Beth?" Remus asked coming up to stand beside me, while I was watching Teddy and Bella play with the other kids.
"Yep, she told me about your break-up," I answered.
"It wasn't a break-up, more a mutual agreement."
"Really sounded like a break-up to me?"
***FR***
"Well that went better than I expected," Remus said as everyone was leaving.
"Then don't wait another 5 years to come!" Artemis said hugging him.
"Yeah see ya little brother," Sandy ruffling his hair and doing the same to Teddy and Bella, "and you to kids."
"And you to Dora don't hesitate to drop by, in fact you should come to Sunday brunch this week, I'm hosting it for the ladies in our church, 11.00 am," Katherine said before ushering all of us out the door so that her and John could clean up.
"Let's go home," Remus said putting his arm around my shoulders.
"Remus?"
"Yeah?"
"Do I have to go to brunch?"
