Tonks was spending more and more time at Remus' hideout. This was partially just because she wanted to see him, of course, but also because lately he seemed like the one person she could really be herself with. She didn't know who else she could trust, after all.
Some nights she tried to stay at her place, to either keep up appearances or because Charlie was staying over. But today, like many days, when she got back from work she took the time only to get changed into more comfortable clothes (jeans and a shirt) and took the Floo to Alphard's old place. She emerged from the fireplace, dusting ash off her shoulders and her hair (currently blue) and looked up just in time to see Remus coming into the room. "Hey, Remus." She moved towards him with her arms open for a hug, and she was going to say something else, but at the sight of the expression on his face, she switched gears and asked, "Everything okay?"
