I stepped into the apartment door. Ashton held one of my hands whilst his other hand covered my eyes. "This is our apartment," he cheered as he uncovered my eyes.

My eyes went wide as I took in the sight. It was a large penthouse apartment, overlooking the city. I immediately ran over to the kitchen and through the doors to the balcony. The slight breeze blew my hair away from my face as I leaned against the wall that came up to my ribcage.

Two arms wrapped around my waist as he kissed my neck. He rested his head on my shoulder and chuckled, "Not the reaction I expected but I'll take it."

I turned to face him and took his hand, dragging him into the apartment. He had had it fully furnished. It was modern but with a vintage touch, the way I loved it.

The kitchen was a large white room with with cupboards and an island in the middle of it that doubled as a table.

The living room was amazing! It had three of the walls a pretty coral colour whilst the other wall was a nice grey colour. Opposite the grey wall was a grey sofa, beside the door. Mounted on the grey wall was a large plasma screen tv.

There were two bedrooms. He lead me into one and said, "This is the spare room." It was a cream coloured room with one purple wall. There was a wardrobe and a white bed with purple decorative cushions on it.

He smiled at me, "Shall we see our bedroom?"

I nodded frantically and he giggled in response. He lead me into a large room. The walls were almost the same as the living room, two coral and one white instead of grey. On the wall opposite the bed was completely glass! Opposite the glass wall was the king size bed! It had white sheets and coral decorative cushions. There was also a walk-in closet. There was a wardrobe and chest of drawers in the room. There was two bedside tables. On both tables were matching lamps, silver bodies with white lamp shades.

I ran into the en-suite bathroom. It was coral and white tiles on the wall. There was a bath/shower like in Ashton's old house. There was a toilet and sink and cabinet and all that normal stuff. Best of all, there was a huge mirror that filled the wall the sink was attached to!

I walked back to Ashton, who was sitting on our bed. I smiled at him as I took both his hands in mine. He smiled, "Do you like it?"

"Ashton, this is like my dream house!" I exclaimed. I sat on his knee, wrapping my legs around his waist. I threw my arms around his neck as I hugged him tightly, "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"

"No problem," he grinned as I leaned back to look at him.

"How will you pay for your other house?" I asked.

He shrugged, "What are they going to do? Throw me out?" He smirked and kissed my lips. He looked around, smiling proudly, "This is our apartment."

"No," I shook my head as I smiled like an idiot, "This is our home."

He leaned in and kissed me passionately. He pulled away and chuckled, "We should probably begin unpacking our stuff. With the amount of clothes you have, we'll be doing it through the day and night."

"Shut up," I playfully hit his chest. I stood up and pulled his arm, forcing him to stand up. I smiled, "I get the walk-in!"

"Whatever you want princess," he smiled.

I smirked, "Whatever I want? I want you to help me unpack because you're right; I do have a lot of clothes."

"You go on ahead," he smiled, "I'll be with you in two minutes."

I smiled and walked out of the room. Being as nosey as I am, I stood outside the door, looking in unnoticeably. He stood up and smiled proudly. He softly spoke, "Our home."
