Ending 2
Remus's eyes slowly opened as he barely registered the voice shouting frantically at him.
“Wake up, Remus! Tonks needs you!” He heard the voice say again. He groaned as he tried to sit up, the pain in his temple making him cry out.
“Severus!” Remus moaned out. “Stop the yelling, it's making my head hurt worse.” He felt a small vial next to his lips, and Severus held his head while he drank it. “Thank you. What's wrong with Tonks?” He asked, pushing his pain to the back of his mind in worry over his wife.
“She's in early labor-- you're about to be a father!” Severus announced to the shocked werewolf. He held onto Remus as he side-along disapparated them to the gates. With a flick of his wand he had them unwarded, and they entered. He rewarded them with haste and he dragged the still injured Remus to the castle.
“She's okay, you think?” Remus asked, happy to see that the decorations had been restored to the red, green, yellow and blue of all the Houses.
“Witches have babies all the time, she'll do fine. Tonks will kill you herself if you aren't there though.” Severus laughed at him.
They made their way to the school's infirmary, Remus leaning on Snape's arm for support. His head still hurt, and his leg pained him from where he had landed heavily on it. He thanked the Gods for this pain, making him feel alive and grateful for the life he had.
Snape held the door open for him as the entered the infirmary. They could hear Tonks' cries and moans and Remus ran to her side.
“Hello, Nymphadora.” He smiled at her with love, his hand gently caressing her hair from her sweaty face.
“I told you,” She grunted with the force of a contraction. “Never to call me that. You did this to me, you-- ugh.”
“I love you too, sweetheart.” Remus bent to kiss her forehead. “Happy Christmas, darling.”
“You are never touching me again.” She shouted out, pushing down as her body made to expel their child. “Never, you hear me?”
“Yes, love.” He whispered with a smile.
“Never!” She screamed out as a baby's cry was heard.
Poppy brought forth a squalling, screaming red-faced baby wrapped in a blue blanket. His legs kicked and his fists brawled at the air as he cried out his anger at being removed from his safe warm cocoon. She placed the bundle into Tonks' arms and stepped back, letting the small family get to know each other.
“It's wonderful, isn't it Severus? A new life on Christmas day.” Poppy said to Snape.
“Yes, wonder what they are going to name him? I suppose in eleven years that he'll be blowing up my Potions room like any other dunderhead.” Snape snorted, and Remus looked up at his words.
“His name is Albus Severus Lupin. With your permission, of course.” Remus smirked back, his hand lightly touching his son's now happy face as he suckled from his mum.
“Albus would have felt honored,” Snape truly smiled, “As I do.”
Remus drew his jacket off to lay on a chair, a gaily wrapped box dropping from it's pocket. He bent down and picked it up.
“To Remus, from Albus.” He read out, amazed by it. The others looked at him in surprise.
“Open it, Remus.” Tonks said.
Remus pulled the ribbon off and ripped the paper, a small note dropping out. Inside the box was the small ring he had looked at in the window. “I think this is really meant for you, Tonks.” He smiled as he slipped it on her finger.
“One day over the rainbow we shall meet again, but for now I leave you with this gift. And yes always remember: It is a Wonderful Life, Remus Lupin. Your old friend, Albus Dumbledore,” Remus read out loud.
