Chapter 234, Growth
Alexis' speech was impassioned and full of emotion. He really meant it. What he said now was what he was thinking.
However, Lupine's reaction made Alexis's agitated heart gradually sink to the bottom.
Lupine kept his head lowered in thought, and was not moved by Alexis's passionate emotions. He was always thinking.
The room fell into silence, the air seemed to become thicker, and the feeling of suffocation came like a tide. Alexis looked like a drowning person, looking at Lupin, the hope in his eyes gradually disappeared.
Then came a deeper fear.
A thought suddenly appeared without any warning:
He was going to lose his good friend Lupin!
This thought had never entered his mind, not even in Godric's Hollow, when Alexis was thrown out of the house by an angry Jaime.
Even when he learned that James and Lily were killed, he was only sad but did not lose their feelings.
In his life, he had never felt the loss of anything.
Not death, not a quarrel, not a quarrel, not a brief separation.
James kicked him out of the house. He knew that both of them were angry at that time, but when the anger subsided, James was still his friend.
James and Lily were killed. He knew that the two people were dead, but as long as they were still alive, they would still be sitting on the porch, taking advantage of the night breeze, drinking beer and chatting.
That's just separation, not loss.
But now, he felt that way.
Lupine will not be killed, he will not die, and he will not travel far away. More than a month later, he will still appear in the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom at Hogwarts, teaching students, and he will still appear on the full moon He would hide from time to time, take wolfsbane potion, and survive the full moon night silently. He would still appear in the restaurant, the main building...
But they are no longer friends...
Alexis didn't dare to think about it anymore. He didn't dare to imagine that one day he and Lupine would meet in the corridor. The two of them were indeed just strangers. They nodded slightly, passed each other politely and politely, and went in opposite directions...
Maybe the girl who accompanies him through the full moon is that girl who exudes vitality, disgusting, damn vitality!
Alexis raised his head suddenly and opened his mouth slightly. He wanted to say something, but he trembled and couldn't say a word.
He suddenly understood why he disliked Tonks when he learned that Lupine came to London to find Tonks.
He felt that someone was trying to steal Lupin from him!
"We're still friends, right?"
Alexis asked hoarsely, finally overcoming her fear.
Lupine raised his head and looked at Alexis with surprise on his face, and was even more surprised when he saw that his face was pale.
"Hey, what's wrong with you? Alexis? Are you okay?"
Alexis shook her head and repeated the question.
"Of course, of course we are friends, does it need to be said?
Are you ok? "
Alexis breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart was still uneasy. It seemed that he and Lupine were different from now on.
Maybe Lupine had something and he didn't, maybe it was because Lupine and he no longer had no secrets, and some things couldn't be said.
Why didn't I feel this way before?Alexis is unknown.
ValleyWhen James and Lily held their wedding, all they were thinking about was that they were about to give birth to a baby, and then they were vying to be the godfather of the baby.
"Alexis, I think I'll support you."
Lupine finally gave an answer.
But Alexis was not as happy and joyful as expected. He was a little silent and a little depressed.
"When are you planning to marry Nymphadora Tonks?"
Alexis asked dully.
"what?"
"The wedding, your wedding, when do you plan to hold it?"
Lu Ping was a little dumbfounded.
"Alexis, I told you, I just received an invitation from Tonks to come to London for a few days."
Alexis curled her lips, thinking that the two of you, Tonks and Remus, were so affectionate.
He even couldn't help but viciously speculate that maybe Tonks's enthusiasm was fake and that she was just like Umbridge secretly.
Although his memory was very certain that Tonks was not that kind of person, but maybe, who knew.
He viciously hoped that Lupine would discover Tonks' true face, and then stay away from Tonks in disappointment, and the two of them would never interact with each other again, so that he and Lupine would return to the stage of being good friends who talked about everything.
He was like a troubled child. 【Note】
"Alexis, the gap between me and Tonks is too big. She is so beautiful, so outstanding, and she is an Auror, but I am too old...too poor...and too dangerous..."
"We're not a good fit."
Lupine finally came to a conclusion, shaking his head with disappointment and regret.
The atmosphere was somewhat silent.
"You are not poor." Alexis said stubbornly, "I have said before that I will open Felix Dessert Shop all over the world so that you don't have to worry about money. You have a lot of money."
"All dessert shops have your share, as well as Blake's." Alexis counted on her fingers, "I'll pass on James' share to Harry."
"After Harry graduates, he can use the money to travel around the world, and you return to Hogwarts and become a teacher. Black can always buy a lot of good mead and take a bath - as long as he is not afraid of being If you drown."
Lupine couldn't help but laugh at what Alexis said.
He was talking about the drunken talk they used to have. At that time, in order to avoid Voldemort, James and his family hid in Godric's Hollow. That closed mountain village almost suffocated four energetic young people to death. They had to sneak out to drink every day. , that was their expectation of life after the war after getting drunk.
James said he wanted to take Lily and Harry on a trip, Lupine said he wanted to go back to Hogwarts, Blake wanted to wake up in mead, and Alexis wanted to open dessert shops all over the world so that they didn't have to do it for money. And worry.
He even remembered that it was a cloudy day, just two days after the full moon. They laughed drunkenly, and then Lily scolded them so disgustingly that James almost couldn't enter the bedroom...
That day seems like yesterday, but 12 years have passed, James and Lily are no longer here, and Harry has grown up...
The two of them were silent, immersed in memories, recalling scenes from the past, occasionally showing a knowing smile.
However, they didn't know that just outside the house across the bridge, two girls who went shopping had returned from watching a movie and had heard everything they should and shouldn't hear.
Christie looked at Tonks beside her carefully, wondering if she should ask her if she was okay?
