Psycho (a l.s. fanfiction)

1.

*Harrys POV*

Harry Buddy, this is Mrs. Cowell and you will meet Mr. Cowell outside. They will be taking care of you since they are adopting you.

If anythings wrong you can always call me, you have my number. And you are always welcome here. But do me a favour, please try to be open for them and get along with them. Im sure they are the best.

Mark has already packed your stuff, just go through your room one more time and look if he forgot anything.

I nodded. I was really nervous but also excited. I tried to cover it, but Paul knows me too well. Of course he does. He is the one who raised me. My parents died in a car crash when I was one year old. I dont remember anything about them. I just know, that my Mum, Anne was her name, and Paul were really good friends. From what he told me about her, I figured, that she must have been a really nice person. Sometimes I miss my parents, but Paul is the best.

I make a note in my head, that I have to visit him at least once a month. I already know, that Im gonna miss him so much.

I hope Mr. and Mrs. Cowell are nice. Mrs. Cowell seems polite and loving, but also a little strict. Hopefully we will get along well.

————————————————————————

When I go downstairs and outside the frontdoor, I see a man standing next to an expensive looking car. I guess he is about 55 years old, but Im not sure.

Paul introduces him as Simon Cowell. He smiles at me as I turn to Paul and give him a big and tight hug.

I feel a tear on my cheek. Im not sure, if its Pauls or mine. I go over to Mark, who is putting my belongings in Mr. Cowells car. He turns towards me and pulls me in a hug. I always loved his hugs, they feel like home.

I pull away and run to Paul again I give him one last hug and go in the car, where the cowbells are already waiting for me. Mr. Cowbell starts driving and Mrs. Cowbell starts a conversation with me.

Hey Harry, I really like your hair

Thank you Mrs. Cowbell

Oh please dear, just call me Laura

Sure Mrs... I mean Laura

I really start liking her. Mr. Cowbell puts on Music and I get lost in my thoughts. In my head I start imagining what their house or flat looks like. I bet its one of these super modern houses somewhere near the coast, and not near the place where I grew up.

We arrived Harry, this is your new home

I look out the window. Were not far away. We drove for about 18 minutes and we are just two towns away from my hometown... what was my hometown. The House Mr. Cowell, who told me to call him Simon on our way here, seems like home. Its an old stone house with plants around and on it. Even though its old, its not small, but also not too big, just the right size.

I get out of the car and go to the back of the car to give Simon a hand with my stuff.

No worries bud, just go inside the house and look around. Laura will show you your room. I can do this

I follow Laura inside and hold my breath. This place is beautiful I tell her. Aww thank you. I designed your room as well but we can change everything you want... let me show it to you, follow me.

We go upstairs and after she had shown me, where she works, where they sleep and all other rooms, she opens the second door in the left hall and lets me step in.

My jaw drops. Ive never had a bedroom that big. I even have my own bathroom, that I dont have to share with anyone. The room is designed in blue-green colors with white furniture. You like it? Laura asks. I can just nod. This place is incredible

A knock on the door tells me, that Simon entered the room. He puts my belongings on my bed, smiles and then leaves the room with Laura. Ill tell you, when dinners ready

I jumped on the bed and stared at the ceiling. I realise, that Laura put little, blue stars there. I cant believe I have such nice parents,

I really like them.

Dinners ready Simon opens the door. I jump up from my bed and follow him downstairs. While eating, we make smalltalk and watch an action movie afterwards. Simon likes the same movies as I do so he becomes even more sympathetic to me.

After I put all my clothes in the huge closet, I go to bed, trying not to step on any of my things. Tomorrow Laura will go shopping with me and then in one week, summer breaks will be over and Ill go to a new school. Im part excited but a huge part of me is also really nervous.
