That he was so touched and emotional about this turn of events wasn't lost on Lily, nor could she blame him for it. He had made choices that would shift the course of the life he'd been living quickly, and up until hours ago, he thought she was dead. Now he was coming to join her, and Harry in the cottage Minerva had been gracious enough to let them reside in after James' death.

In truth, Lily was excited about the prospect of getting to share it with Remus. He had been on his own for such a long time when he didn't have to be. She was glad they had the chance to make up for lost time, however slightly.
