Harry let the girl into his home and shut the door behind her. She was tall, she looked about 5'7, and her hair came down to her upper back. She had a small Pikachu bag on her back. She looked around the living room, taking in her new surroundings, and placing her suitcase near the couch. She did a slow turn around before walking towards the back doors that led to the backyard. She looked outside before moving towards the kitchen, it's a nice kitchen, well equipped, and could fit enough people. She jogged towards the island and hopped into one of the chair. The moment the chair swiveled, she laughed and started spinning around in the chair. Harry laughed a little and continued watching the girl from the couch.

LaRay walked over to him and smiled. " I like this home, it's cozy." She said and sat down on the couch. "So, you must be Harry."

"Yes, I am." Harry said looking at her weirdly, I mean she just checked out his living room and kitchen. "Did you have to check out my living room and kitchen like that?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, but I do this every time I get put into a new home, hopefully, I stick around this time." She said taking off her Pikachu bag and putting it in her lap. "I have something to give to you. Your mom wanted you to know about me so she and the agency she got me from decided to interview me." She pulled out a folded piece of paper and handed to Harry, which he gladly took. He needed to know as much as he could about this girl.

"What did you mean about 'stick around'?" Harry asked curiously, he just wants to confirm his suspicions about being jumped around from home to home.

"Oh, the adoption agency really did try to get rid of me but every time I get sent right back. Families nowadays want little babies, nothing wrong with that, but why not teens? I mean I'm only seventeen...now. I need a family too. " She said with a smile that sent happy vibes up Harry's spine. He laughed a little and continued reading the list of likes and dislikes, and allergies which isn't a lot.

"Yeah, that's true." Harry put the paper in his pocket and picked up LaRay's suitcase. "So, let me show you where you will sleep." Harry walked past her, LaRay got up from the couch and followed. Harry walked down the hall, telling her where the bathroom was, along with his room if she needed anything. The last door at the end of the hall was the guest room and is now her room. Harry opened the door and put LaRay's bag in front of the door. He stepped aside to let her in and see what the room looked like. "I know it's small but it's the only guest room I have."

The bed was the first thing you see in the tiny room. The bed was small but long enough for LaRay to sleep on. Underneath the bed were three drawers, in LaRay's head they were perfect to fit her art supplies in there. A small closet was behind the bed, she didn't really have a loot of clothes anyway. There was a big window beside the closet and above the window was another cabinet, a tiny one. "It's perfect." She said plopping down on the bed and smiling.

"Good." Harry said he looked at the time on his wristwatch and freaked out.

"Oh my God, I'm late!" He ran down the hall and disappeared into his room, LaRay figured he was talking about work so she let him do his little freakout and rambling, which got a few laughs out of her, while she unzipped and unpacked her suitcase. She hung up her three pairs of outfits in the tiny closet, put her art supplies in the three drawers underneath her bed. Once she was finished unpacking, she walked into the living room to see Harry hopping around the living room trying to put on his shoe. Once he finally got it on, he fell on his side letting out a yelp, LaRay let out a giggle but instantly covered it up with her hand.

He jumped back up to his feet and grabbed his keys off the table near the door.

"Oh, um, food's in the refridgerator and...um...oh, if a girl with blonde hair comes by, answer it, and tell her that I'm at work."
