*** The Leaky Cauldron ***
Willow stared in amazement at the empty fireplace. One second Harry had been there and then Poof, he was gone. Willow was unsure what to do next. Harry shouted something before he disappeared. What was it? Oh yes! He shouted "The Potters!" Well, maybe if she threw the floo powder in and shouted the same thing, she would find Harry. She stepped up to the fireplace, threw the powder in, stepped into the fire and shouted "The Potters!" It was like being sucked into a large vacuum. Willow kept spinning and spinning. She was reminded of the night Dawn's arm got broken. She continued to spin. Then finally she landed in an incredibly dusty fireplace.
*** Ottery St. Catchpole ***
"Oculus Reparo!" Harry hated floo powder. He always broke his glasses. It didn't matter if he was with the Weasley's or Willow, he broke his glasses. Harry turned around just in time to see two things, his sister climbing out of the fireplace and a squid in a tool belt coming into the living room. The squid wore a pleasant expression as he began to talk to Willow.
" Yes ma'am! All done. Lights working, phone hooked up, though I don't know why your kind wants a telephone but hey, to each his own. That will be 9 galleons, 3 sickles and 2 knuts please." Willow had already caught on to the money scheme. Things are much cheaper in the magic world. The squid continued, "A payment owl comes by once a month on the nineteenth to collect the monthly bills. Have a nice day." The squid left.
"Well Harry, what to do now?" Willow asked.
"Lets explore a little, and pick out the rooms." Harry was excited about being able to pick out his own room. They looked at the spacious dining area and the family room. Harry was in awe at the size of the house. The floors were all done in a light, hard wood flooring. The kitchen was huge with a side-by-side refrigerator, dishwasher, and electric stove. It had several cabinets and an island bar in the center of the room. They counted fifteen bedrooms all with their own bathrooms. Harry picked a nice large room, that looked out over a field that he and the Weasley's had played Quidditch in. The two bedrooms that neighbored Harry's room were perfect guest rooms for his two friends Hermione and Ron. He left his room, praying he would be able to find it again as he walked up another flight of stairs to the room his sister had picked out. He walked into a beautiful room with vaulted ceilings and tall glass doors that led out to a balcony that looked out on the back yard.
"So, Harry, wanna hire an interior decorator for the house?" Willow asked with a smile. "This place it two big to decorate by ourselves. I wonder if there is a magical shop that can do all of it in one day?" Willow and Harry quickly went down to the fireplace. Willow reached to a thick book that stored magic store listings that were connected to the floo network. After discussing various decorators that ranged from, Disco Decorators to Gothic Domains. They finally picked a simple decorating service called Classic Home Designers. Willow and Harry went to visit the Decorator. They explained to the Decorator, Mrs. Dean, they wanted each room decorated, what colors to use, and furniture to use. The Decorator told them some of her ideas and showed them some examples by using a magical diagram of their home. When she came to the very large attic, Willow asked if it could be converted to a Quidditch field so Harry and his friends could play and teach her to fly. The decorator smiled and told her that several of the large wizard families had indoor Quidditch fields. Mrs. Dean told Willow and Harry to give her a few hours to complete the house. They went to Diagon Alley to buy books for their new library and potion ingredients for the potion's lab that would be in the basement. They spent a few hours shopping in the Wizarding shops before going back out into Muggle London.
***Back Home***
Mrs. Dean stood in the large family room as Willow and Harry came through the fireplace with their many packages. They looked in amazement at the house. Every room was just like they wanted it. Harry's room was done in crimson walls with a yellow ceiling and a big framed picture of the Gryffindor crest. On his bed side table were a framed picture of him, Ron, and Hermione. Harry smiled as he watched them wave at the camera that Colin was holding. Another framed picture of his parents was hanging from the wall.
After unpacking their recent packages, Harry asked if Willow had wanted to meet his friend Ron's family. He told her that he hadn't told them yet where he was. She was happy to go along on the surprise visit, and off they went to surprise the Weasley's.
***The Burrow***
Harry and Willow walked up to the front door of the strangely shaped house. Harry smiled encouragingly at Willow as she nervously smoothed her hair down and straitened her skirt. She was nervous at meeting Harry's best friend and his family. Harry knocked on the door and it was opened by a boy about Harry's age with bright red hair and blue eyes. Ron stood in shock at the sight of his friend. Then he let out a loud shout and grabbed Harry in a big hug. At the sound of his shout the other Weasley's, that were home, came running to the door. Willow moved back as Harry was engulfed by several Weasley's.
