"Harry, Lily welcome to your new home," Grace said as she opened the front door.

I stepped through the big, white door. My nose was greeted with the same scent as Grace, lemon and jasmine. My eyes started to peer around the room. A big set of wooden, spiral stairs sat in the middle of the foyer. The inside of the house looked even better than the outside which was hard to even believe.

"Dont just stand there go pick your rooms," Grace said between laughs.

I took my chance at getting the best room and ran past Harry. He caught up quickly though, once again thank you shortness. We were elbowing each other as we raced up the staircase. I ran into a random room and shut the door. I sunk down to the floor and let out a big huff. I looked up from the floor and saw huge white framed windows over looking an orchard. Since it was fall the trees were a gorgeous amber color. Under the windows was a window seat. It had cream pillows with light purple detail on the them. I then looked to the left and saw a four-post bed. It had cream drapes hanging down from it and four fluffed pillows sitting on it. I decided to leap on my brand-new, heavenly bed. My room couldn't be more perfect I thought to myself. I was proven incorrect when I saw on the other side of the wall was a huge walk in closet next to my own bathroom. I could get used to this. I wonder if Harry's likes his room.

Harry's P.O.V

I saw out of the corner of my eye Lily walk in. I figured I could just walk around and find my room now. I walked into a seemingly small room and was mistaken when my green eyes gaze was placed on the overlay of this room. It had a dark wood finish dresser on the right wall a few feet away from my own bathroom. Finally I don't have to share a bathroom with a bunch of smelly eight year olds.

My bed was in the corner where all my pale blue walls met. I liked it right in the corner, it reminded me of the adoption home and the great nights spent in that bed. Nights like when I told Lily I loved her. I hope she didn't hear that. I already know she thinks of me as nothing more than a brother.

Above my bed was a somewhat big window with just a plain wooden frame. Next to my bed was a night-stand the same color as my dresser. I decided to take a shower knowing I wouldn't get the chance later with Lily in the house. The girl takes two hour showers I swear. As I locked the door I let my black v-neck fall to the floor leaving my chest bare. I removed the rest of my clothes before I adjusted the temperature and stepped in the glass shower. I let the hot water sooth my muscles as I hummed tunes from The Smiths.

Lily's P.O.V

I heard the shower start signaling Harry was in the shower. I decided to be a nice best friend and unpack for him. I started with his shirts, mostly all v-necks. Then his pants and so on. I realized it was kind of chilly so I decided to throw one of his hoodies on me. I found a journal at the bottom of his bag. I set it on his bed and when I was about to open it he burst out the bathroom. Steam lingered out of the bathroom as he stepped out only in a towel. I admired his tattoos over his chest and torso. I knew he had them but I never gave them much thought.

"Maybe taking a picture would be better love", Harry said as he shook water droplets out of his damp curls.

I opened my mouth to let out a sly comeback when I heard Graces soft voice tell us it was time for dinner. I let Harry change as I walked down the not so creaky stair case. I thought to myself I need to stop making it so obvious.

I can't be in love with my best friend.
