(Home is pic above).

As we went through the forest, we knew we were getting closer as things became more familiar to me. Soon enough, I could see the tower and chimneys above the trees. I grew deeply excited.

We soon left the thick forest, and stepped foot onto our road, I smiled as I saw out home. The ivy, stone and windows all looked surreal to me. I began riding ahead of the others as Sage and I went up the road and stopped at my front door. I swung it open and called out for my mom.

"Oh! There's my girl!" My mom called out as she appeared, our house elf Greggory behind her. In her arms, a small wrapped bundle. She motioned me outside, where we saw the rest had caught up. She then showed us what was in her arms. It was a tiny white wolf, with streaks of blue in its fur and crystal blue eyes.

"Mom... what is it?"

"We don't know, I let the twins out for an evening and they returned with this pup. But I'm determined to give him a good home."

All of a sudden, the pup picked its head up and stared at Draco.

"Draco, come here," My mother motioned. He cautiously complied, coming up to the dog. They never broke eye contact. He carefully reached a hand out, and the pup began kissing his hand, begging to be held by him. My mother then motioned for him to take the dog.

I turned to Sage, and picked up Alina from here, handing her to Gregory, "Do you mind situating her?"

"Of course," he answered , bringing her in. I then turned to Draco, who was cradling the dog, and my mother who was encouraging him continuously. Draco was smiling a lot, and I found myself overjoyed at the sight.

"He looks like something with water influences, have you done any reveal spells?" Ethan asked mom.

"No, not yet. I wanna wait until he's a bit older."

"Mom, do you mind if later today I show Draco the cottage?"

"Of course, it's your cottage! Just be back by six for dinner, Greg and the kitchen are making macaroni and a bunch of other stuff. And be sure to dress warm, it gets cold in the evenings, even with the heat spells."

"Are you lifting it on Christmas?"

"I'm lifting it on the twenty-third, so you have five days to do stuff outdoors."

"Understood, Mom," I looked to see Ethan had brought the luggage in, and I turned back and grabbed the cage of chicks, "Mom, look at these. They're cinnamon birds."

"How did you find them? They're incredibly rare in these parts."

"They were in the forbidden forest. Lupin and I found them, I'm not sure how they got there but I was wondering if we could raise them in the green house?"

"Of course. You and Draco can go situate them with Lemon, then show him to his room."

"Which room?"

"The guest room next to your's"

"Okay, on it."

I nodded to Draco, who handed the pup back to my mom. He then picked up the chicks from me, and put his hand out for me to hold.

We quietly walked around the house, to the greenhouse behind our actual house, with Sage not far behind us.

"How are you doing so far, Draco?"

"It's amazing here. It's really, really amazing. I mean, this home feels like a home. And your mom is so, so nice. And the animals and creatures are so sweet. And I'm so happy to be here with you."

"Wow," I smiled, "A lot of good things."

He stopped us, and turned me towards him, giving me a kiss on the forehead, and looked me in the eyes, "A very good thing."

We continued walking towards the greenhouse, and I placed the chicks in, next to the small cinnamon tree we have been cultivating. They perked up, and started chirping. I picked up a twig from the tree, placing it in with them.

"Okay, they seem okay. Should we head in?"

"Sure. You're showing me to my room I think."

I smiled at him, and gave him another hug, leaning into him, "I'm really happy you're here with me."

He wrapped his arms around me, tucking my head under his. We stayed like that, swaying for a moment.

"You know, you're incredibly lucky, Y/N."

"How so?"

He lifted my chin to look up at him, "To have a boyfriend this devilishly handsome."

I started laughing, and just leaned into him again, "You're right, I am."

Soon enough, we headed in, and came through the back kitchen entrance. We then went to the main hall, up the stairs, and down the East wing of the home to where my bedroom was. The halls were large, and Sage followed along. I stopped a door short and opened it, revealing a guest bedroom, which already had Draco's luggage.

"This is beautiful," He smiled, "And I assume the door here is your bedroom?" He motioned to a door, that was indeed mine. I opened it to show my room.

(your bedroom cause i also don't feel like describing it)

"Wow, it's so bright in here."

"Oh, I just remembered you sleep in like... a sea dungeon." I laughed.

"Yeah, it'll be weird to wake up to light."

"You can close the curtains?"

He nodded, saying that'd be sufficient.

"Well, we have enough time for me to take you to the cottage so, let's go. You wanna walk or ride? It's about 20 minutes on foot."

"A walk sounds nice."
