"And what was it, that you couldn't get the hang of?" Remus asked. "I couldn't... conjure a Patronus," Tonks said, not meeting his eye. Remus grinned. "Well, I can certainly help you there." - - - - - - - When Tonks confesses to Remus that she cannot conjure a Patronus, he happily agrees to help her learn. She succeeds first time but the results are weak; she needs practice. All that time together will surely have an effect on the both of them? ------------------------- Thanks for reading/voting! Yes, I am aware that 'Expecto Patronum' doesn't work for dispelling Boggarts but when I wrote this two years ago, I wasn't. Please don't comment correcting me!

"What do I do? Falling in love was never part of the plan." "Don't tell me what to do!" "I think our Moony is in love." "Typical! Its all my fault!" "Take some of your own damn responsibility!" "This is your child too!" "I will never stop loving you." Remus and Tonks. This is the story of the laughs, tears, blood and sweat that was part of the purity of love.

This fanfiction is slow and building, taking time to develop a sense for the characters and their feelings. The plot focuses on Tonks' and Remus' personal lives, their lives working with the Order, and obviously their lives together as they try and figure out their feelings for each other. This fanfiction starts out at the beginning of The Order of The Phoenix and skips over most of the things already told in the book. (e.g. I don't write about Tonks and Harry packing up to go to headquarters, because J.K. wrote that from Harrys perspective in the book.) My sources of course are The Harry Potter books and Pottermore. I have taken some creative license to write about things such as the death of Remus' father, but I make sure everything matches up with what we've learned from Jo. Of course it's not what J.K. has imagined, but if she ever writes anything more on the subject I will edit and expand. If you're more into quick to the point fics, this probably isn't for you.
