Y/Ns POV

I was deciding what to watch on Netflix when I got a call from Russell.

On the phone
"Hi Y/N"
"Hey Russ what's up?"
"Would you be interested in moving in with me?"
"Oh my god yes! When?"
"In about a week?"
"Yes! How am I going to get all of my stuff over to yours though?"
"We're not going to my flat"
"Wait.... What? "
"I just bought a house"
"What?! Without asking me first? What if I had said no?"
"Well I've been planning this for weeks and I've sorted everything out, all I needed was a yes. I'm on the website now and I literally bought the house the second you agreed to it."
"........ I don't know whether to be happy or annoyed."
"Happy! We officially own a house Y/N! Well in like a week but still"
"Russell Howard what am I going to do with You?"
"Live with me?"
"Yeah I don't know how I'm going to do that!" I laugh
"Well you'll have to learn how! I've got to go now, I need to sort some final things for the house. I love you."
"I love you too"
End of call

Well that escalated quickly! One phonecall and I now own a house which I have no idea what it looks like or even where it is!

*** 1 week later ***

I stood outside my block of flats by two delivery vans. One which carries the things I don't need anymore and the other carries the things I am taking to the new house. The first van gets driven away for the useless items to be disposed of. The other van with my belongings in was rented and currently has Russell in the front seat behaving like a child.
"This van is so cool! Hurry up Y/N I want to drive it!"
I shake my head and get in the passenger seat of the van. "I hope you know what your doing, and where we're even going! I can't believe you haven't shown me the house yet."
"Relax I know what I'm doing, and you'll love the house!"
"I bloody hope so!"

We drove down many roads and passed many houses. I was looking outside at the houses, wondering what ours will look like. I do hope it's nice. After we had been driving for 10 minuites, I started to wonder how far away was this house. "Jesus Russell how far away is this house?!". "Its OUR house now. We are nearly there!".

About a minuite later, Russell stopped the car. I looked up to see a beautiful house, but I didn't get my hopes up just in case. I pointed to the house and asked, "is this it?". Russell nodded with a massive grin and said "I told you you would love it". "Its fantastic Russ!" I said as I gave him a massive hug. He laughed and we both got out of the van.
"I can't believe you chose this!"
"I told you I have many tal...."
"You have many talents I know" I said mocking him.
"Rude people don't get to see the house" He said as he revealed the keys in his hand. I tried snatching them off him but he moved his hand away and raised the keys above his head. Ha ... he thinks I'm too short. I jumped and successfully snatched the keys out of his raised hand. I ran to the door as he chased after me.
I unlocked the door and opened it to find the living room which was already decked out in furniture and painted. Russell did all of this! As if on cue, Archie came running out of nowhere with a red bow around his neck. I picked him up and turned to Russell with a massive smile. "Thank you for all this. You did an amazing job". "My pleasure " He replies. We kissed with Archie still in between us. As Archie wriggled around, I put him down and then went back to the kiss with Russell with my arms around his neck. I was so grateful for him. We pulled back and I still had my arms around his neck and we stared into eachovers eyes. "I feel so bad" I said, looking down at the floor. "You've done all of this for me and I've done nothing". He kissed my forehead which made me look back up at him. "You don't have to do anything for me, this was for both of us". We smiled at eachover and kissed again before going back out of the house to start bringing my belongings in.

Later on in the first day in the house, I was sat on the new sofa watching a film on Russell's previous TV. Suddenly the doorbell rang. Who would be calling to the house already? I asked myself. Maybe our neighbours? Russell rang down the stairs and shouted "I'll get it!" so I returned to my film.
I heard the door opening and a female voice say "Hi Russell, remember me?" By this point I stopped paying attention to the film and eavesdropped the conversation.
"How did you find my address?" Russell said angrily.
"I know people" the female voice said.
"Leave right now!"
"Why should I? Have you got company?"
"Yes"
"Who? A new roommate?"
"My girlfriend"
Silence. I became anxious and wondered who this female was. Then it came to me ..... Cerys, Russell's ex.
I paused the film and walked into the hall. Both heads turned to me as I stood next to Russell and asked who I assumed was Cerys, "Who are you?". She scoffed at me in a judging way and said "more like who are you? Ugly bitch." I stayed calm and said "Oh ok nice to meet you ugly bitch". Russell snickered which made Cerys look at him with anger. "Really Russell, is that the best you could choose for a girlfriend" She said, looking back at me with sharp eyes. "Well you're certainly the worst I could choose for a girlfriend Cerys" He said laughing. This also made me giggle. Cerys went red with rage and turned on her heel and stormed back to her car.
Russell shut the door and said to me, "Are you okay Y/N? She's a bitch don't listen to what she said about you."
"I'm fine Russ honestly!"

We both walked into the living room and sat on the sofa.
Russell looked tense. "I'm just worried that she will come back."
"What if she did? She can't do that much can she?"
"She's capable of a lot of things"
"I'm sure she won't Russell" I said holding his hand. He smiled at me and he seemed to become less tense.
I just hope that we won't be seeing much of Cerys soon.
