Challenge Sixteen: Holiday Drabbles & Drawbles
Author: writermerrin
Wizard/Witch: Remus Lupin/Nymphadora Tonks
Rating/Warnings: G/PG
Prompt: #13, Campfire

The campfire lent little warmth to Remus’ body, aching from the previous night’s transformation. For the millionth time, he cursed the Darkness, the fear, the inability to use his wand for warmth and shelter because he needed the trust of hateful monsters in the service of other hateful monsters.

The crunch of footsteps setting him on edge, he scanned the area until his eyes found a cloaked figure. Her face disguised, he recognized Tonks’ walk.

Fear. Relief.

She reached within her cloak and withdrew a vial. Kneeling in the snow, she reached for his hand.

“I missed you at Christmas.”
