(Y/n's P.O.V)
When I woke, I found a plate of food Remus had brought in the night before. He had put a warming charm on it, so the roast chicken, vegetables, and gravy were still warm. I grabbed the plate eating a bit of food. Though I didn't feel like I could finish it, I knew I had to eat at least some. It wasn't until I put the plate back that I noticed the letter it read:
'Dearest Y/n,
I can't tell you how much I love you and wish I could spend the rest of my life with you, but I can't live with the fact that I am the reason you can't take in, Harry. You have worked so hard to get ready to take Harry in, busted your chops to save for him, get toys and clothes for him; it's because of me that you don't have that money anymore; it's because of me, the house isn't safe.
Now Harry's crib can go in my room, and you will be able to save so easily without having to take care of me. I hope you and Harry have safe and happy lives, I will never forget you Y/n Black and the years we spent together.
Love Always,
Remus John Lupin'
I dropped the letter running to Remus's room finding it empty, I ran through the cottage trying to find him. As I ran through the front door not finding a hint of him or where had gone I fell to my knees.
"We could have worked it out! We could have worked together." I yelled.
I sat there sobbing for hours before I returned inside grabbing the last of Remus's jumpers I had hung up in my cupboard.
(3rd Person P.O.V)
In the next several months Y/n dove into her work, she was able to save very quickly being that she rarely ate food and when she was unwell, she ignored it. Doing everything, she could to be able to bring Harry home.
Despite not eating Y/n found herself gaining weight, not that it was noticeable due to the fact Y/n only ever wore Remus's jumper.
Four months after Remus's departure Y/n once again sent a custody request to the ministry.
This time though she would never see the return letter which would have told her that Harry would move in that Christmas.
Only a month after sending the letter Y/n felt so sick she reached out to an old friend who used to look after Remus Madam Pumfrey.
Madam Pumfrey did a quick check up telling Y/n she was Pregnant and that she should perhaps reach out to Remus.
Once the shock had worn off a day later, she started to write a letter to Remus.
After scrapping four drafts she finally decided to be blunt about it. As she signed the letter she was interrupted by an explosion.
A group of Death Eaters had found her, trying to find where Harry was. This group was led by her Cousin Bellatrix.
Y/n's wand had been tucked away in the bedroom while she wrote the letter at the table in the dinning room.
As Y/n ran trying to get to her room to get her wand the killing curse hit her in the back. It was her cousin Bellatrix that delt the final blow. She cackled as her younger cousin collapsed to her knees dead.
