Chapter 2- Setting Up, and Getting Settled…Kinda…


Harry woke up to a warm white comforter and the feeling of complete contentment. Nothing could have made his morning go wrong, until he realized that he had to unpack. Groaning he moved out of his very nice, very big, and very warm bed and put his feet on the floor.

He could have swooned right then and there.

The floors were heated ever so slightly.

Noticing that he'd been put to sleep in his clothes he… he'd been put to sleep. Harry blushed in remembrance. Draco had practically tucked him in to bed last night! He smiled happily and walked into the bathroom that was located right next to his bedroom.

One thing he'd have to change was all this white.

He looked around for the little console that Draco had told him about and once finding it he smiled and pushed the button that said wall, and he was immediately presented with several different pages of colors he could choose from. After searching for a while, he picked light sea foam green, and then matched the floor and tiles accordingly. Smiling at his accomplishments he left the bathroom after doing what he'd gone in there to do in the first place.

Again as he entered his bedroom once again, he found the console and was able to change pretty much every color in the room. The walls became light olive green, the carpet a lush deep green, and his bed a variation of the different greens. His comforter became dark green and the sheets underneath it a light green, and then he made his bed.

He went through his entire suite until everything was a variation of green, if not green it's self. Harry then began to unpack all of his belongings that he had brought with him. Several of his college texts, mainly those pertaining to middle school aged children, were placed on the dresser in his room. His clothes were placed in the closet and in the dresser.

After all his books and clothes were unpacked and in and on various bookshelves, dressers and cabinets. Harry smiled; it was time to put up his pictures.

Right as he was taking out the first picture of himself Sirius and Remus (that had been taken right before he'd left) the door bell rang.

Harry blinked and wondered who on earth could be coming to see him. He hardly knew anyone. Then his heart began to race. What if it was Draco? He carefully put the picture on the wall over the 'hearth' (which was in reality only a heater) and let out a deep breath.

He brushed back his hair and took back that deep breath, "One second!" He called out, giving one last look around the room and went up to open the door.

Pushing the button that opened the door, he waited with baited breath, as the door seemed to open in slow motion, and…

There was no one there.

"Hi sir!" piped a small voice.

Harry blinked and looked down. 'Damn', he thought. "Hello. And who are you?" He knelt so that his head was almost level with the small girl who had suddenly appeared on his 'front step'.

"My name is Kitty. I was just sitting with Mr. Draco and he had to go check on something in the lab so he said to come to talk to you. Is that ok Mister?" Kitty gazed up at him with her big blue eyes and brown hair framing her face, looking angelic.

Harry smiled. "Of course that's ok Kitty, I was just putting up pictures of my family. My name is Harry, so you can call me that."

She beamed up at him. "Cool Mr. Harry."

He stood up and held out his hand to help her down the stairs into his living room. She put her small hand on one of his fingers and walked down the stairs into his suite. He watched with amusement as her eyes went as wide as saucers and she looked up at him. "Your favorite color is green too?"

Chuckling he nodded his head, "Yep. It's the same color of my eyes."

Nodding she went over to one of the huge chairs and climbed into it. "You have real pretty eyes, Mr. Draco thinks so too. He said so."

Harry blushed. "Did he really? Huh. So Kitty would you like something to drink, eat?"

"I would like some orange juice please." She smiled happily and waved her little legs that didn't hit the ground in the air.

"I'll go get some, and then I'll be right back." She nodded happily as she began to take in the room, looking every which way.

Harry chuckled and shook his head. Thinking while he got the little girl some orange juice, 'So Draco likes my eyes. It's a really good thing I got these contacts.' He smiled to himself as he walked back into the room with a sipy-cup of OJ. As he entered the room he almost laughed out loud, this tiny little girl was trying to move one of his chairs so that she could get a better look at the one picture he'd put up that morning.

"You want some help there Kitty?" Harry put the cup down on the table and went over to lift her up so that she could better see the large picture.

Kitty smiled as he lifted her up so she could look at the picture better. "Who are those guys?"

"Those guys are my godfathers. They took me in when I was younger and raised me."

The little girl placed her elbows on the shelf and put her chin in her hands and just stared at the picture. "So you don't have a mommy or a daddy?"

"Well I did along time ago, but they died in a car crash when I was very young."

"Oh… I'm sorry Mr. Harry."

"It's ok. I was lucky to have Sirius and Remus there to help me."

"I've got Mr. Draco. My parents died too. They got into an accident in the lab, so Mr. Draco took me and…" The door bell was rung again Kitty squealed and wiggled to get down. After Harry let her on the ground she ran towards the door. She pushed the button to let in who ever was ringing the bell as Harry got over to the door.

It was another little girl. Harry blinked. "Ah… hello?"

"Mr. Harry! This is my sister Katie!" Kitty dragged the second little girl in with her. "She just woke up. I left her a note that said she should come over here."

"HI MR. HARRY!" Katie bounced over to him and hugged his leg. Harry was staggered, and couldn't say a word. His mouth just moved up and down. It wasn't that he didn't like these two girls, it was impossible not to like them, but he was just startled. The two little girls giggled at his stunned silence.

"Hello Katie, I got some juice for your sister would you like some?" He asked when he finally regained control of his voice.

She nodded and smiled happily as she and her sister gathered on the couch, one with a cup and talking and the other listening.

Harry shook his head. So Draco took in two little girls after they had been orphaned, he smiled as he got another cup for Katie. He walked back out and the two were as thick as thieves sitting on the couch whispering to each other. They didn't even notice that he'd come back into the room. So he snuck up behind them and leaned on the back of the couch and began to listen to what they were saying.

"… thinks that he has nice eyes right? He hasn't gone out since we came to live with him."

"You don't think he doesn't go out because of us do you?"

"No. Have you seen the people on this ship? None of them are good enough for him even if he did go out with them."

"Good point."

"Now we know that Draco likes Mr. Harry a little bit so why don't we..."

"Why don't you two mind your own business?" Harry smiled behind them as they jumped and Katie almost fell off the couch. "Wotcher Katie." Harry grabbed the back of the little girl's shirt and pulled her back up on to the couch. He smiled at the two imps who were currently blushing and gave Katie her cup, before Kitty looked up at him.

"Hey wait a minute! How can you tell who is who?" The twin girls did look remarkably alike. Both had a reddish brown hair color which was tied back into braid and both had the same facial structure, with deep blue eyes. They were wearing the same clothes, a light yellow frock with blue leggings.

"Well Kitty, you have more freckles on your nose, probably from pushing your face against the window and Katie has none, which is probably from staying farther away from the window." Harry smiled as the two little girls blinked in astonishment.

"Wow." They said together.

"Now girls please don't do anything silly like try to set up Draco and I. I'm sure he has more than enough to deal with right now, especially with you two imps." He grinned widely. "Now why don't you two help me in deciding where my pictures should go."

Kitty and Katie smiled and clapped their hands excitedly.

Forty five minutes later after much shouting and laughing and several stories Harry finally had all of his pictures up on the walls of his new suite. When suddenly the door bell rang for the third time that day. "Girls why don't you go sit on the couch while I go get the door."

"It's probably Draco!" they said at the same time.

Harry rolled his eyes and finger combed his hair. He opened the door and sure enough there was Draco looking slightly bedraggled.

"Are the girls here?" He asked breathlessly.
