AnnaRose's footsteps sounded loud against the corridor as she approached her new home. With a deep breath she pulled a small silver key from her pocket and slipped it into the door. She heard a satisfying click as she turned it and opened the plain door. The inside of the apartment was pretty typical. It was kind of modern and there were boxes all over the place. Apparently the movers had made it here before she had. She found the spare key on the kitchen counter. –Well, I'm here. - Anna thought. Then looking around she groaned. "Why, did I have to bring sooo much stuff?" The apartment had come furnished with rather drab furniture. "Good thing I brought my personal touches, though." Anna said while critically eyeing the apartment. With that she placed Ezmerelda's travel case on the floor and let her out.
"About time!" said Ezmerelda.
"Well, EXCUSE me! But last time I checked I'm not even supposed to have a pet in the apartment at all so you're lucky. So instead of complaining why don't you help me unpack?" Anna reached into a nearby box pulling out a package containing star curtains. Grudgingly Ezmerelda shut her mouth and helped by slitting the tape with her claws.
"Many thanks."
"You are welcome." With that Ezmerelda left the room to go exploring.
After a long time Anna had all of the boxes unpacked and set up. With the exception of her clothes. Those boxes were in her new bed room along with her new sheets. Her living room was set up in a design that was centered completely on the stars. Upon the ceiling she had stuck at lest 100 glow in the dark stars. She had hanging up the aforementioned curtains. Also she had put two through rugs down upon the floor. One of them was a sun and the other a moon. The chairs were now had slip covers of a pattern matching the curtains. Also in this room sat a blue beanbag chair that hadn't been there earlier. Separating her kitchen and new living room she had hung a moon and star bead curtain.
She walked into her kitchen to check her handy work in there, as Ezmerelda curled up on the bean bag. Her kitchen had one window in which hung a salamander light catcher. The short curtains that draped it were cut in a jagged way and were read and orange. AnnaRose had smiled when she first noticed her red stove. On her floor was a shaggy red throw rug. Smiling at her ingenious, Anna went back through her starry room into the hallway.
This was probably where the most fabric in the whole apartment was. She had draped the walls in a gauzy white material. One picture of a sylph stood out on a panel of unadorned wall. As she brushed past the light hangings swirled and billowed. Pausing at and opening to her right you could see a wooden door behind which lay her bathroom.
There were no windows in that room but she had replaced all the white light bulbs in the room for ones whose glass had been tinted blue. Her shower curtains were blue also with a water droplet design. On one wall hung a painting of an undine frolicking in a waterfall. Finally, she came to her bedroom.
This was the last room she had to set up. After putting away her clothes and the other required elements to this room she glanced around. One her floor was a carpet that had a blooming cherry tree on it. Her windows were hung with a silky green fabric. On the top of her dresser stood a vase and on her bed stand a bud vase both awaiting their flowers. Perhaps however what was most catching about this room was her bed spread. It was intricately embroidered with a group of gnomes sitting in a forest's glen. Some of them were dancing while one played a reed pipe. Still others were sitting at the base of trees smoking their pipes, and still more were content to clap along joyfully. Sighing, Anna left the room to plop unceremoniously upon the couch.
