Hey thank you once again in advance for the reviews! Only posted the last chapter last night at 11:00 so have no clue whether or not you enjoyed it but I hope you did:) Anyway moving on to chapter 67? 68? Whichever it is the aftermath of Tonks and Remus kiss….how will people react? Stay tuned to find out! Lol. Talk 2 ya:)

Harry spent ten minutes discussing the current situation with Dumbledore, thinking that Remus would eventually turn up to share his concerns but he never came. Dumbledore presumed he had gotten pre-occupied with work but once Harry related Tonks presence when he left, they both realised the reason Remus hadn't turned up.

"So…..does this mean what I think it means?" Tonks asked with her hands on Remus shoulders after escaping from another satisfying kiss. Remus smiled at her before saying…..

"Well that depends on what you think it means….." He walked back to his desk. Tonks just smirked and shook her head before following him.

"Well could it mean that now finally we are both ready to be an exclusive couple?"

"Well…..I know that I am but are you is the question…"

"Rrrremus! Would you please stop taunting me and give me a straight answer already?"

"Alright….." He half laughed at her expression of indignation.

"I think the time is right to……be serious about this Tonks. I don't want to throw all this away and I certainly cannot deny how I feel anymore. So…..my answer is yes."

"Finally after six bloody years! But what changed your mind? Oh no let me guess……Hmmmmm……Sirius? No wait……James?"

"Actually neither one of them. They were sick of telling me to got for it so in the end…..gave up." Remus replied collecting the pieces of parchment on his desk and piling them up neatly. Tonks looked at him perplexed, resting on hand on the desk saying…..

"So who did?"

"Harry actually….we had a heart to heart a couple of weeks ago."

"Oh really well I am glad he did." She replied smiling at him. He came round to the other side of the desk reciprocating her smile as he said……

"So am I…." He reached to kiss her again which she willingly returned but was interrupted by a knock and a voice calling out……

"So this is where you got to….."

"I always thought you were responsible Remus. But you stood my godson up tonight for some floozy? Now that is simply just not on….." Remus and Tonks turned around to find a grinning Harry and Sirius standing in the doorway with their arms crossed.

"Harry……I am so sorry. I completely forgot to go after you…."

"Ah its alright Remus. I see you were pre-occupied….."

"Shameful Remus. I am a forgiving man obviously since I am not gona say a single word against the pair of you. However……" Sirius began walking towards looking treacherous….."Can I just say this…? IT IS ABOUT BLOODY TIME YOU GOT IN THERE!" Tonks and Remus laughed a little whilst Harry couldn't keep the smirk of his face.

"So does that I mean I have your blessing?" Remus asked.

"Do you need my blessing?" Sirius asked perplexed.

"Well…..I mean I know its Ted who should give it but well…..Tonks has always been like a little sister to you Sirius so…."

"Mooners….I have said it before and I will say it again. When it comes to Tonks….I couldn't imagine anyone better suited. I am very pleased you guys got it together."

"Aww Sirius thank you." Tonks cried as she hugged him.

"No problem darling."

"Well really Sirius its Harry you should be thanking coz he gave me the final reality check I needed the other day so…." Sirius turned round and saw Harry standing in the doorway looking like some lost puppy.

"Prongslet come her will ya. There aint no need for you to stand over there like a freaking recluse! You are one of the family too….."

"Ya I know Sirius….." Harry replied walking over to them.

"You are the man of the moment Harry kid. You socked it to Remus when he needed it the most. Only a true marauder could do that. It is bloody obvious that you are James son now more than ever mate." Sirius stated as he swung his arm around Harry's shoulder. Harry smiled up at him and back at the newly formed couple.

"Alright so what did Albus say about Scabbers going missing?" Remus asked.

"Oh…..well he just said that the protection around the school will have to be reinforced….especially around the grounds. I in particular am not allowed to go outside after dark and not to visit Hagrid unless it's during class. So basically……I am grounded." They laughed a little.

"It is all for your own good mate…"

"Yes but Sirius I am sick of it! I just wish he would either make his move or leave me alone altogether."

"Harry look come on listen to me alright? Harry……." Harry threw Sirius arm off him as he made his way down to the classroom.

"Harry……hey come on kid….." Sirius called as he stood on the balcony. Harry was sitting at one of the tables in the front row staring at his mirror. Sirius went down to him, grabbed a chair and sat opposite him. Harry didn't look up.

"Harry…..look you are well protected here….."

"I can't live my life like this….."

"It won't be for long mate….."

"Everyone is telling me how to live my life but nobody cares about what I want……"

"Okay well what do you want?"

"I want to be a normal kid Sirius. I don't want to have all these rules and regulations hanging over me. "Life is all about taking risks isn't it? Well when was the last time that I was allowed to do that?"

"……..When you were about ten? Look ya I know its rough but it will all get better I promise you. I tell ya what….next time you are in Hogsmeade…..drop into Zonkos and I will give you whatever you want for of charge! And if that's not enough…..I will treat to a triple chocolate Sunday over in the Frozen Kingdom…..just the two of us. I can't say fairer than that."

"What do you want from me in return?"

"Just a promise that you will stay safe until we have captured Wormtail. I promise that we will Harry. Okay……?"

"Ya alright fine……look I gota get to bed. We have to meet Wood at 8:00 in the morning for a talk." Harry said glumly as he walked towards the door leaving a despondent Sirius sittng there.

"Ya alright mate. Ill see you tomorrow then. We all will be there….."

"Ya whatever Sirius. Good night….."

"Good night Harry. Best of luck mate. I know you will do brilliantly!"

"Ya……see ya." He left quickly without taking a second glance at Sirius, who felt a little hurt by his cold reaction.

"What was all that about?" Remus asked from the balcony area. Sirius looked up as he said…..

"He is a teenager Remus. They all get a little moody. Its called puberty."

Sirius tried to laugh it off but Remus knew there was more to it than that. He knew Sirius was cut up over Harry's reaction but he left it. He decided to sort it out in the morning.

"Well I guess Ill be going then. See ya tomorrow Remus."

"Ya….."

"Oh hang on Sirius Ill go with you." Tonks called out from the office.

"Hey Ill see you tomorrow and if not Ill owl you so we can meet up soon okay?"

"Ya sure thing Tonks." She kissed him lightly on the lips.

"Okay well Ill see ya soon Remus."

"Ya goodnight guys."

Well what is the reaction? I hope it was good for you! Let me know though. Talk 2 ya:)
