He looked to her, and to her hand, seeing the ring on it and he couldn’t help but feel ecstasy – complete and utter happiness. He hadn’t felt his way in… well, ever. He had never felt this happy, not even when it was his first moon together – not when he was studying with Lily. Not when he first saw Sirius after he figured out his innocence. He was completely overcome with the emotion – it was so intense, it wasn’t something he was used to even at the lower levels and for something so strong to come along for him – it was almost blinding.
Each of her kisses made him want more – more of her kisses, more of everything. His face showed it – the want, the need for more – to be happy, to be ecstatic, to feel this, right now, every ounce of love. He looked at her like she was the only thing in the world, adoration, love, want, need, happiness. He looked actually a little bit younger than his age with this expression.
“Dora I – I can’t express to you how… much I love you, love this, love everything about the world right now. Even if I am – well you know – what I am, and the world hates me, I can’t help but see your beauty outshining all of that darkness. I love you with all my being, everything that I am. I can’t believe how lucky I’ve been to have met you.”
He threads his fingers on his left with her left, allowing her ring to be felt in his hand now and he kissed the back of her hand, holding onto her like he was afraid to let go lest she leave him forever. He hooked his other hand with hers, the journals having been set aside, kissing the back of this hand and then kissing her lips gently. “I can’t wait until you’re Mrs. Lupin.”

She watched as several emotions flickered through his face and she smiled softly as he looked at her. She noted how much younger he looked in that moment, as well.
"It's okay, I know. I see it in the way you're looking at me. I'm glad that I can be your guiding light through the darkness in your life."
She kisses him back, pulling him to her by crossing their enclosed hands together behind her back. "Well, if you can't wait... we could do something about that."
He swallowed, the smile never leaving his face, feeling her so close to him, held to her with their connected hands. Kissing her nose lightly he lowered his chin and tilted his head to the side slightly.
“Mmmm… well that depends on what you have in mind, my dear. Mrs. Lupin sounds… amazing.” He laughs a little and gives her another kiss, but this time on her cheek. “I love you. I love you so much. I’ll do anything for you.” He pecks her lips, his face still shining with joy as he looked down at his new fiancée. “So tell me, what do you want?”
Despite the instant fright of her suggestion, he honestly considered it for a few moments, during the kiss, while his tongue danced with hers. He gave her a small frown, though he still seemed extremely happy despite the frown.
“I want you too. It’s tempting. It’s so tempting, Dora. But we can’t. There’s so much we need to talk about before we do it. And not to mention how angry Rose would be that she wasn’t there. And Sirius.”

Delighted, she hummed as he returned the kiss and chuckled lightly as he spoke.
"Indeed, Rose would be very angry at me if I did that, it would most definitely be a breach of the trust I've built with her. I would also hate to take Sirius opportunity to be your best man away from him. But it was a fun thought."
She was very happy to be where she was, his arms wrapped around her and being able to look up at him and see the same love reflected in his eyes she knew was in hers. However, a worry nagged at her, something she pushed away in times like these...
At what cost would this happiness be gained at? They worked so hard to be here, yet it seemed with the slightest thing it could all be upheaved.
Remus gave her a small frown the euphoria fading slightly, getting serious now. He swallowed, his nose rubbing against hers just barely before he looked at her, his head slightly tilted.
”Our future, our everything together, I don’t want to take anything you want away from you. I can’t have children - the risk of passing on my curse is too great. Too few people like me have... mates with just... regular people. I don’t want to take that away from you either - you’re so young and you have a full life ahead of you.” He sighed taking in a deep breath. He felt so guilty for taking something from her - he didn’t want to do it but he was too afraid that he would ruin that child’s life.

She shakes her head chuckling softly to herself. He still want quite getting it, nut, nonetheless.
She smiles, cupping his cheeks. "I've been trying to tell you, time and time again. I don't care about that. I care about is, our life and us being together."
She kisses him soundly. "I'm not looking of anything more or anything less."
Remus sighed accepting her kiss. There were just things he didn’t know if she realized. No kids. They couldn’t have a family. They would have to be content with just themselves. Just him. He didn’t think he was enough. He couldn’t be enough. Just him. Just him. He didn’t understand how he could be enough.
”You don’t want kids?” He tilted his head - he had always wanted kids of his own, he had always wanted a family but he didn’t let himself think about it because he knew it was impossible. ”How can I alone make you happy? How can I be enough for you?”

"Wants change, Remus," she replied softly, looking right into his eyes.
She smiled at him, "if you're trying to get me to change my mind, Remus it's not going to work. I am going to marry you, despite every reason you can come up with to get me to not."
She kissed him again, "and it's just not you alone. It's going to be our life together, the things we'll do. That's what will bring me my happiness. And I hope it'll bring happiness to you too."
He let out a shaky breath, needing to hear those words, his worries having been consuming him for a while. “I’m not trying to change your mind – I – I’m making sure this is indeed what you want. That you want me. Despite… everything.” He makes a gesture to his face, and his eyes glanced up towards the sky – if there were a sky somehow inside of the cottage.
“I’m not an easy person to love. I could hurt you – I might run away. I might… be hunted down and killed for what I am. I might leave you and never be able to come back even if I wanted to. I love you, Dora, but…” He shakes his head slightly. “I can’t promise you this will be easy or wonderful or amazing all the time.”
Remus’s smile spread on his face again and he held her tightly. “Oh, I see, that’s what I’m here for. So that you can be related to Rose!” He was, obviously, teasing. “That makes so much sense now! You’re just with me to get to her, aren’t you?” He chuckles before he goes a bit serious. Not Sirius. Serious.
“Well, that’s true, she’s pretty great. But you know what? You’re my fiancée. My future wife. And I love you more than anything.”
Remus chuckled slightly as she played along. That was something he really enjoyed about her – she laughed at his jokes and even went with them. He hadn’t had that since his school years and before everything… happened with Sirius, James, and Peter. Partially his fault for leaving Rose behind basically, but even still. He enjoyed it.
“Every.” He pecks her with a soft kiss between each word, “Second. Of. The. Rest. Of. Our. Lives.” Eight kisses. Way to go Moony, considering you rarely snogged your girlfriend before because you were so afraid and before that James was your only real kiss – not to mention that accidental Sirius kiss earlier…
