So I included this picture because...

Can this two be the cast????

Just look at them! They're so cute!

Plus, Remus and Tonks were not as old as the ones from the movie when they met each other :)

_______________________
Remus took me home that day. I don't want to sound spoiled but that curse made me feel weak and I was not willing to sleep at the Black house.

Everybody in the Order knew what happened to me that day. They were all commenting of how I was hurt and the fact that we didn't get any important information more than the rumors that Snape may be in a relationship with Voldemort. All that stuff just made me feel embarrassed. I am supposed to be an auror! I'm supposed to be strong and brave and all that! Now the rest of the Order's gonna think that I'm weak! And I'm not, right? I may be immature and bubbly and... weird but I am definitely not weak!

I was sitting on a the same tattered couch but this time with nothing on my hands. I was supposed to be investigating with Remus but he wasn't there. I just sat down nervous waiting for something to happen.

"Tonksity Tonks! What's my delightful cousin doing here?" Sirius said behind me.

"Nothing... just waiting for Remus" I turned my head and looked at him.

"For Remus Moony Lupin?" he answered exaggerating everything he said. I decided just to continue with the game.

"Yes! For Remus Moony Lupin!" I put both of my hands on my cheeks and talked with a pitched voice.

"Oh! Can I know why are Moony and Dorito meeting?" he asked smiling widely. "Can I know if they're having a date?"

I felt my cheeks warming and I didn't even know why. I waited a few seconds for the blush just to disappear before I answered.

"No..." I said with my normal confused voice. "Why do you think that? We always see each other..."

"Oh well... because I think he-"

But before Sirius could finish what he was saying, the door opened to reveal a wet Remus standing on the porch. Rain was falling behind him and I bet I even heard thunders.

I ran to hug him, no matter if he seemed like if he had came out of a pool. I put my arms around his neck, feeling then getting wet just by touching Remus. I felt him tensing, he was probably surprised of how I reacted when he arrive. After a few seconds of hugging a tense Remus, he relaxed. I felt his arms moving, probably reaching my waist or back, and I let him before he hugged me back. It wasn't because I didn't want him to hug me, it was because I felt Sirius staring at us.

I turned back to Sirius. He raised an eyebrow and smiled mockingly.

"What?" I formulated with my lips for him to read them.

He raised his eyebrow even more and smiled even wider. I rolled my eyes at him.

***

Nothing happened. We couldn't find out anything because Remus was wet and cold and tired. He went to sleep because that night was going to be his night. You know what I mean... the furry thing. Since I knew he was a werewolf I had been counting the days of his wolfish cycle.

It had been a long time of not investigating so I decided to to it by myself. I went to the closest bookshelf in the house and picked a random book.

It ended being an old spell book from like... I don't know... centuries ago. It somehow contained really interesting spells from the ones that turn you into animals or objects (I don't know what they were thinking when I read about that spell that turns you into a candle) to the ones that help you deal with magical pests. I wanted to try most of them.

I was there for what I felt like a while but it were actually like two hours! You can really get lost in books! Now I understand what Hermione was talking about!

The sky got darker as I reached page 357: How to erase your memory and page 358: How to recover someone's memory. I have to admit that to me page 358 seemed more interesting: Its depends mostly on how was the spell casted. Sometimes you can cause it unconcientply, for example, some wizards have casted it while sleeping-

I heard footsteps coming down the stairs.

"Dora?" I heard his voice saying as I turned around to see Remus coming to where I was. He saying Dora made me blush a little, he called me like that when I was five.

"Remus! Hey!" I stood up and faced him.

"I'm sorry for not... well..." he mumbled not looking at me.

"Oh! Don't worry! I understand!" I interrupted. "But... maybe we can investigate now?"

"It's too late" he looked down. "It's getting too dark and today's full moon night..."

"I remember! Actually I was thinking that maybe..." I said and suddenly stopped when we made eye contact. "Maybe... I-could-join-you"

"What?" I was expecting an answer like that but all that time at Grimmauld Place waiting for him gave me a lot of time to think and I was ready for any excuses he used.

"You know... like when you were young... and the marauders and you transformed into animals... and were safe around you..."

"But, Tonks, you're not an animagi" he used as first excuse.

"But I've been taking this lessons from the auror department, that nobody takes, that teach you some extra stuff like becoming animagi and some other stuff"

"If there are those lessons why aren't there more animagi?" he tried to change the topic.

"Because nobody manages to do it" I said to shut him up, I was convinced and he was not changing my mind.

"Then why are you so sure that you can do it?"

"Because... well... Don't you think I can do it?!" now he was thinking I was weak too?! Didn't he have faith in me? Or maybe he just wanted me not to risk my life for him.

"I believe in you but not even you are sure that you can do it" he tried to convince me no to go but he wasn't going t stop me.

"Then if I can't... I can run away from you as fast as I can and apparate home" I said the first idea that came to my mind. "Plus, if a bunch of teenagers managed to become animagi... why can't I?"

He opened his mouth but then closed it again. He look right into my eyes with those deep green eyes and we stared at each other for a few seconds. He was going to argue, at any moment and he was really clever. I needed to do something.

I held his hand and walked towards the door. He didn't pull apart but just followed me, like if he was hypnotized. I felt his hand sweating a little, or maybe it was my hand, who knows? Maybe we were both sweating. I finally stopped walking when we were outside, after I had made sure there were no muggles around.

"Now where do we go?" I asked firmly without letting him go.

"Tonks..." he started.

"Where do we go?" I insisted before he could even think of what to say.

He sighed, we apparated.

***

I felt to the floor, no longer holding Remus' hand. I found him laying on the floor next to me. Apparating is not the funniest thing ever. I stood up and looked around, we were on a clear space in an unknown (at least for me) forest. I walked next to Remus and sat down next to his body. I looked down to his face, he was breathing heavily.

"Are you okay?" I said smiling at his dumb face. He mouth was half opened and he was staring at the sky.

"Yes... I'm just enjoying my last minutes... before I turn into a monster. The view is beautiful, isn't it?" he was looking at the orange and purple sunset.

"Yes, yes it is." I said admiring the beautiful bright colors, how the sun slowly moves towards the west, so slow you couldn't even noticed. In that moment I wishes I could be an artist to picture that beautiful scene forever in a painting. Those were one of the most beautiful seconds of my life.

"I think it's time" Remus stood up and stared at the sky. "Make sure you're far away from me, just in case you can't turn into an animal"

"Okay." I said and took a few steps behind.

"Ready?"

"Yes"

The moon came out slowly from behind some clouds, I was ready. Remus looked at the sky, for a second I thought of closing my eyes but then I thought of transforming into an animal before he transformed into a wolf.

I took my wand out of my boot and concentrated as hard as I could in what the book said and in what I had been taught. I closed my eyes and tried to concentrate, I was distracted by a shriek and then a howl. I could hear cloth ripping, maybe Remus'. No no no! I need more time! I thought as I tried to focus even more on the spell. I knew Remus wasn't that far away from me, I hear something running towards me. I could feel the wolf coming. I pressed my wand against my chest and though, I'm doing this for him.

Everything became blurry from one second to another. I could barely see a big dog shaped shadow. I opened my eyes, everything was spinning. I looked around. Why was I so close to the ground? Why did I feel so fluffy? Why was-

I looked up and saw a wolf breathing in front of me. I was so tiny that the wolf seemed huge and scary from where I was. I looked at it, right into his eyes, he looked at me too. We stared for a few seconds, I had a long time to look at those stunning green eyes. They were not bright like Harry Potter's, they were another kind of green. They showed...suffering and loneliness.

After a few seconds, he no longer seemed like a best but more like a big dog.

***

I woke up, it was still dark. I was laying on the cold ground already back to my human shape. I spent a few seconds like that before sitting on the wet grass. Everything that had happened was still fuzzy in my mind. Just a few blurry pictures of me looking down to my reflection on a lake, I had turned into a jackrabbit. Some pictures of me following Remus under the moonlight and- Wait! Where was Remus?!

I stood up and searched for Remus around me. He was just a few steps away from me, laying on the ground in his human form. He was wearing the same clothes he was wearing last night but they were all ripped. I ran towards him and knelt next to his unconscious body. I looked at him, I smiled at the dumb look of his face.

He was not a monster, like he thought he was. For the first time in my life I understood what he felt. I saw him turning into a wolf, I was scared but... when you get to see the wolf's eyes he's not really a beast. For so many nights I had gone to bed thinking of him, of how he turned into a monster and lost control of himself and hurt everyone. But he was wrong, now I finally understood, he was just alone. I wanted to be with him, be his support on cold full moon nights. I wanted to hug him when he felt all that pain, to never let him go.

I was still sitting next to him. I realized I had been softly playing with his hair all that time, it was silky. I giggled. I had never seen his face that close up, I had never realized how handsome he was. All that time I had never really stared at Remus that well to notice that, he was beautiful. I felt my cheeks warming, was I blushing? I thought of all those times that I needed him and... from one second to another I realized... that maybe... I loved him.

I bit my lip. I had never felt anything as strong as what I was feeling. And, did I just felt the urge of kissing him? I smiled, feeling that I had just turned as red as a tomato. I leaned and kissed his forehead, he was asleep but he turned his head and- was that a smile on his lips? Maybe... I wasn't sure.

I stood up and sighed feeling nearly complete for the first time in my life, I glanced at him for the last time and started walking through the forest.

***

I was just walking while thinking that maybe, no matter the war and death eaters, love existed. I looked at the creepy shadows the trees created but I wasn't scared.

Horcruxes.

Somehow that thought came to my mind.

An horcrux. When a part of somebody's soul is saved inside an object or living thing.

Everything fitted in my mind. I couldn't understand why or how but I knew I was right, the lantern was an horcrux.
