Prompt: 7-the cracked egg
Warning: Silliness ahead!
Summary: Tonks had a bit of an accident, and she's feeling the full effects..
Authur’s Notes: Everyone else wrote about the egg. I wrote about the break. Huh. How bout that!



"Remus," she hissed in a loud whisper, slapping him lightly in the arm with her hand. "Guess what?"

Remus smiled down at her, his hand gently pushing her hair out of her face. "What's that, love?"

"I broke it!" Tonks burst into giggles and pointed down towards her foot.

Sighing, Remus nodded. More than just a standard break, his slightly--all right, very--clumsy girlfriend had all but shattered the bones in her ankle. A simple repairing charm hadn't been enough, and the Healers had resulted to the more muggle practise of wrapping it in a cast. "That you did. Not the smartest move on your part, now was it?"

Making a shushing sound, Tonks slapped him again. "It wasn't smart at all! I can't walk. I can't walk when it's well and then I break it and now I really can't walk. I'm screwed, huh?"

He had to force himself not to laugh. "You could say that," he replied, glancing up at the bustling Healer with a questioning look.

"Oh, she's fine, Mr. Lupin, I promise. It's the pain potions. They'll make her a bit..."

"Crazy!"

At that, Remus really did have to cover his mouth to keep from laughing. "Crazy?" he questioned.

The Healer was avoiding Tonks' bright smile in order to control her own laughter. "I was going to say disoriented."

Crooking one finger, she motioned Remus closer. As he leaned in, she grinned. "She means crazy. I went crazy. Just like a Black. Cause I broke it, see?" She pointed again at the cast on her foot. "Isn't it ace? It's pink. My foot is pink. Sometimes my hair is pink but today my foot is pink."

"And umm..." Remus coughed slightly, clearing his throat. "Exactly how long is this going to last?"

"I hope it's forever," Tonks declared, grinning. "Cause there's two of you right now. Always wanted two Remuses. Wait, would it be Remi?"

Choking in an effort to hold back his laughter, Remus reached for the water pitcher and glass beside her bed. Pouring himself some water, he took a few slow sips to try and calm his shaking shoulders. "Don't know, love." The Healer smiled at him knowingly and shook her head as she checked the bandages on Tonks' ankle. "What would you do with two of me?"

A dangerous question to have asked, only he didn't realise it until he got her reply. "One would be my sex slave. The other could go around...doing stuff. You know, being a Remus."

The Healer stopped in her tracks and grinned as Remus turned a bright shade of red. "We never did decide how long this would last?" Remus questioned.

"Should only be a few hours, Mr. Lupin," the woman told him, her ears pink but obviously smiling.

"Aww, is that all?" Tonks replied with a pout. Pointing to her foot again, she turned to stare at Remus with wide eyes. "I broke it! It's broken! They should use spellotape on it and it'll be all better."

The Healer gave up hiding her laughter, chuckling softly as she held a vial up to Tonks' lips. "Drink this, dear, it'll help."

Smiling widely up at the woman, Tonks burst into laughter. "Hey, there's two of you, too! But you don't get to be my sex slave, only Remuses do...or Remi. Still don't know."

"Good to know, love," the woman replied, patting her arm.

Remus looked up at her in concern. "What'd you give her?"

"Something to help her sleep this off. I think it'll be better for both of us in the end."
