| CHAPTER FIFTY-NINE |
FUTURE.
DAWN COULDN'T SLEEP. EVEN WITH Remus' arm wrapped securely around her waist, his soft breathing fanning over her neck. He tried to stay up with her (knowing she hadn't been able to sleep properly since coming back home, but the full moon was nearing, exhausting the man beyond belief). She didn't know how long she laid there, but she certainly didn't mind. Having Remus' arms wrapped around her, his body pressed up close was heaven and it was certainly better to experience that feeling rather than the nightmares.
Eventually, the redhead pushed her husband's arm off of her. As quietly as she could, she jumped out of the bed, threw on her dressing gown and silently walked out. Whilst she was...away, Remus converted the small, spare bedroom at the end of the hallway into Hope's nursery and that's exactly where Dawn walked to.
Opening the door as quietly as possible, the redhead slipped inside. The moon was peeking through a crack in the curtains, illuminating the path towards the crib. Dawn walked over to it, her heart swelling with joy as she looked at her baby girl fast asleep. Kneeling down besides it, Dawn leaned over the edge and placed her head on her arms, a permanent smile on her face as she kept her eyes on Hope. She couldn't believe how quick her baby girl was growing and she kicked herself for missing her first birthday. Remus told her all about it, how they had spent it at the Burrow, surrounded by the majority of the Weasley family (apart from Ron who was too busy looking for Horcruxes' with Harry and Hermione). Even Charlie had come over from Romania and Bill and Fleur also came over before going back to the secret cottage to hideaway.
War was coming and Dawn just hoped that she would still be around to see more of Hope's birthdays. To hear her first word. To meet her first boyfriend or girlfriend. To watch her get married. She wanted to experience it all, with Remus by her side. Which is why part of her wished that they could just pack up and run away, hideout until things calm down or start a complete new life somewhere else. But she knew she couldn't. She had to stay there, fight side by side with her family so that Hope could have a future, a future without worry, a future without running away.
