Don't Call me Nymphadora! A Tonks and Lupin Romance Story{ON HOLD}

I accidentally called her Nymphadora.

Chapter Two

There she was. Her hair was blue right now... Which usually meant she was calm. I decided to walk up to her to say hi.

"Hi Nymphadora." I smiled.

"Don't call me Nymphadora, Lupin." she spat.

"Right. You can call me Remus. If you'd like." as I offered a smile and her hair turned red. This is not good.

"I'll call you Remus, once you call me Tonks." she growled.

"Sorry Nymph.... I mean Tonks." I stuttered.

"Apology accepted, Remus." she said forcing a smile.

"I'll see you at Hogwarts." I smiled as I walked back to the other Marauders.

"How'd it go Moony?" Sirius yelled from across the street.

"I accidentally called her Nymphadora. I wasn't thinking! I was so nervous." I rambled.

"It's okay Remus. I've been there... Not exactly the same scenario though." James sighed.

James has been trying to get Lily to go steady since third year... No luck yet though. They're are still on last name basis, and James can't stand not asking Lily out every five minutes she's insight.

Then there's Sirius. He fancies Anna Rose. They're also on last name basis, but I happen to know that they both fancy each other.

Tonks and I have a complicated relationship if anything at all. I fancy Tonks, but I'm ninety-five percent sure she doesn't return the feelings.

Last... There's Peter. Peter never talks about girls, but I'm sure he fancies someone. He doesn't really have anyone except from the other Marauders.

"Did you see Lily today?" I asked James as his cheeks flushed.

"Or Anna?" I asked Sirius as he frowned.

Then we all broke out laughing. After heading to the Three Broomsticks and finished shopping for all of our school supplies we all said our goodbyes and left.

Once I got home my mum was sitting on the sofa waiting for me. She looked petrified.

"Mum. What's wrong?" I asked afraid to know the answer.

"Death Eaters came and killed your father." mum said holding back tears.

"No.." I said in denial.

"Yes!" she yelled.

"No! No! No!" I yelled. I didn't care if I sounded like a two year old.

My mother grabbed my arms and said "John is dead, Remus."

"Hey Remus, wake up!" someone said.

"Remus! Wake! Up!" The voice got more recognisable.

"Remus! Who's John and why did the Death Eaters get him?" I heard James start to yell.

"Oh... Do I talk in my sleep?" I asked.

"No... You yell." James replied as I groaned.

"You were dreaming about your dad again weren't you." James sighed.

"I guess I... I just miss him. Even though it was three years ago." I sighed.

"It's okay Moony.." James said apparently trying to comfort me.

"Yeah... I should forget about it.. Bye Prongs." I said hotly as I apparated back home. The truth was that I didn't want to simply forget about it. I've wanted to talk about it for years, but my mum won't talk to me about it. She doesn't like talking about dad very much ever since he died.
