1 - out wait - She curls in against Tonks' body, her legs folded against the length of the back of her thigh. She can't help it, she goes liquid (Tonks is magnetic north).
2 - stumble - Tonks tasted of summer: grass and pollen and blue sky and a book with the pages folded over. The kiss, at first hesitant, blossomed and bore fruit. They leant their foreheads together, breathless (like running up hill).
3 - my eager eyes - ""No, it wasn't. It was bloody horrible. You'd gone to Azkaban and I still loved you..."
4 - looking back on sunsets - "And then love arrives..." said Sirius Black, softly, dreamily, grey eyes reflecting the lights in the water... "And it's good, sweetheart. It's very, very good."
5 - staring at the loss - The doors fly open, and this might as well be it. She's never been in a battle before. This is the moment of your life.</i>
6 - a feel for the song - He slipped her feet into Sirius' shoes, wrapping the laces around her ankles slowly, tying each bow with undue care (he was a craftsman).
They were making maps.
7 - white light blinding bright - She fell asleep imagining the throbbing heart of her want going supernova, dismantling the world, leaving something new and brilliant behind.
8 - to me in memory - "To Mad-Eye, dear Mad-Eye..." said Tonks, her words vibrating along Hermione's spine. "Biggest, scariest bastard who ever walked the earth. Made my life a living hell...made me a better Auror for it. God-speed, you bastard. You scared the shit out of me but I loved you..."
9 - you said you'd wait - "You started it..." said Tonks, softly. "You're the one who's asking stupid fucking questions."
10 - our love's aching - She did the only thing that she could. She turned her head (pouring rain) and pressed her lips to the dark mark (ink and blood) and waited for an end that didn't come.
11 - to all the people out there tonight (or, comfort, five different ways) - Hermione's kisses were soft, and full of promise: in the spill and rock of Hermione's breasts and hips, there were doors and gateways.
12 - sing it one last time
13 - crawling towards the light
