Nope still don't own them yet, but one day I will! Muwahahaha!

Thanks for the reviews.

Hydro- my ideas come from my good friend Frank (the guy that lives in my head) lol, but really I just get stories in my head and they drive me nuts till I write them down. My advice to you is to just sit down and type, don't have a reason or really a plot in mind just pop in a good CD, have some snacks nearby and type whatever comes into your brain.

Ch.22 Home-sweet-home / part one.

Wanda looked out the large window at Sidney.

"Wow, I never thought it would be so, amazing."

"I know."

He wrapped his arms around her and rested his head on her shoulder.

"So, where do we go from here?"

"Wanna see my home shiela?"

"Your home?"

"Yea, when I joined with bucket head I had me mate's watch the place wile I was gone. I called them up and they said it was still livable and that they would clean it up a bit before we got in."

"Let's go."

She picked her bag up and hooked her arm in his, he led her out of the airport and called a cab.

About ten minuets later they were standing outside a two story apartment building. The first floor had three ordinary doors leading to three separate apartments, the top also had three apartments but their doors weren't normal looking. The first was painted to look like the ocean and had a surfboard hanging on it, sea shells hung on the wall and pictures of surfers were also hanging. The second was rounded at the top and was made to look like a medieval doorway complete with stones painted on the wall around the door. The last was painted black and had a fire dragon with its wings spread out covering the door and some of the nearby wall. One of the eyes was a peep hole.

"Let me guess which one is yours."

John laughed and kissed her cheek, they walked down the hall and he banged on the doors.

"GUESS WHO'S BACK!"

Foot steps and doors opening were heard. A young man came out of the door with the surfboard on it, he looked like a surfer with his ear-length blond hair and seashell necklace.

"Johnny boy! Welcome home mate!"

He slapped John on the back. From the other door a woman came out, her long blond hair was tied up in a braid, she was dressed in a long red velvet dress that looked as if it was from the 1600's.

"Welcome home John."

She hugged him quickly and then latched onto the surfers arm.

"Wanda, this is Mark and Clarisa. Marks one of the best surfers around and his girlfriend is an actress down at the Palace (AN: not real place that I know of but I needed to think of a theater name). Mark, Clarisa this is Wanda."

"Hay."

"Nice to meet you. I have to get to dress rehearsals so we'll talk later, Ok?"

"Sure."

She kissed Mark then headed down the hall. Mark pulled a surfboard out from behind the door.

"Sorry to jet like this man, but the waves are calling, I gotta go dude."

He slapped John on the back again and shook Wanda's hand.

"Welcome to Australia shiela."

With the surfboard under his arm he left.

"They seam nice."

John went through his pockets looking for his keys, he found them and opened the door. Wanda flipped the light switch on and looked around.

The kitchen was to the right, it had black and white tiles, the cabinets were black and the countertop was white. A gas stove was against the far wall next to the fridge. There was a small two person table against another wall and it was across from the sink. The dishwasher was next to the sink.

The living room had a couch, TV and a desk. The desk was covered with papers and a computer could almost be seen. The desk was in front of a window that looked over the harbor. The carpeting was black and the walls were red.

As she walked further into the apartment she saw two doors on opposite sides of the living room.

"Where do those lead?"

"On the left is the bathroom and the right is the bedroom."

The bathroom was simple, sink, toilet and Bathtub. The shower curtain had fire pixies on it and the tiling on the floor had footprints leading to the toilet.

The bedroom had two dressers, a bed and another desk covered with papers. The bedspread had dragons breathing fire. The carpeting was red and the walls were painted black. Pictures of John and the two people she met hung on the wall along with an award for one of his books that had reached the top of the best sellers lists.

She put her bag down next to the couch in the living room and looked around. Singe marks dotted the red walls and a few burn holes could be seen in the carpeting. On shelves, tables and even on the TV she could see candles and matched and lighters. There was no doubt in her mind this where John lived.

He kissed her temple and pulled her into his arms.

"How do you like it?"

"I love it. how did you get it to look like this?"

"A friend of mine did it ,in return I signed some copies of me books and helped him move."

She rested her head on his chest and looked out the window at the harbor.

'Yes,'

She thought,

'I'm going to like it here very much."
