As Harry went into the house, Sarah was waiting for him, standing by the stairs with a warm smile.
"Come on Harry, let me show you to your own room." Sarah said to him.
"I get my own room?" Harry asked her in surprise.
"Yes, mom and dad were very insistent about it. Can I ask why?" Sarah asked him.
"I don't really want to say, Sarah, but I will when your parents all get home." Harry told her, a little worried.
"Okay, Harry. If you say so." Sarah replied.
The two of them went up to the second floor, where they found six doors different doors, all labelled with what was inside, such as the bathroom, but they stopped at the one that had Harry's name on the door.
"This is your room, Harry." Sarah told him.
As soon as the door was opened by Sarah, Harry couldn't believe his eyes! The room was much bigger and much more open than the cupboard the Dursleys made him sleep in. The room itself was in a nice dark green, almost forest coloured, around the wall of the room, another door that lead to his own bathroom, a double-size bed in the middle of the room that happened was also front of the double windows that looked over the fields where the horses were. There is also one big, wooden wardrobe on the right side of the room and a matching desk and a few hooks on the wall near the door.
"So, all of this is my room?" Harry asked his cousin in amazement.
"Yes, it is, Harry. Like I said before, you are always welcome here as a member of our family," Sarah told him with a patient smile.
"Are you sure? I don't want be a burden to you." Harry asked her.
"No you won't be a burden Harry, As I always wanted to have a brother or a cousin to chat with besides my friends at Horseland," Sarah told him.
"Alright. Sarah, what is Horseland like?" Harry asked her.
"How about instead of me telling you all about it, I will take you to see Horseland once you are settled into our home." Sarah told him.
"I will keep you to that." Harry told her with a small smile.
But before they could go on any further there was a brilliant flash of light and Polynesia appeared on Harry's shoulder, surprising Sarah and Harry at the same time. For the first time, Sarah was seeing a bird that she had only read about in her school history books about Greek myths and legends, and the bird on Harry's shoulder was one of them.
"I see that I have surprised you, young Sarah." Polynesia commented.
"Did she just talk to me?" Sarah asked Harry, still in shock.
"Indeed I did Sarah." Polynesia answered.
"How did you get a phoenix, Harry?" Sarah asked him.
"She just appeared when we are looking at my family tree." Harry told her.
"Okay." Sarah replied, still in awe of the pheonix.
"You two should head downstairs now, Sarah's mother is waiting for you." Polynesia told them.
So as Harry follows Sarah downstairs with Polynesia flying behind them, and into a room Harry would say is the living room.
"Did you like your new room, Harry?" Rose asked.
"Yes, it's much better then the room I had with the Dursleys." Harry told her.
"Harry, just to let you know, your horse will be arriving in the morning. He is called Desert Orchid. His owner agreed to get him on the next flight from England after I told him about you." William told him.
"Really?" Harry asked him.
"Yes, really. They should arrive around about ten in the morning after landing." William told him.
"Thank you, Uncle W!" Harry said happily.
"No problem, Harry." William told him.
"Harry, you do know that my older sister shouldn't have allowed that horrible husband of hers to do to you what they did." Rose told him seriously.
"How do you know that?" Harry asked her.
"I would know what my older sister is like towards your mum, Harry. After all, she is my younger sister too." Rose told him.
"But, what about my time with the Durlseys?" Harry asked her worrying.
"I have been to discuss that with your future headmaster, Harry, about why he placed you in Petunia's care at first and not mine all those years ago. It wasn't a pleasant discussion." Rose told him.
"We will ask Professor McGonagall and Albus when they visit us tomorrow after Desert Orchid has arrived and put into the field next to the girls." William told them all.
"Harry, even though my sister and her husband have always disliked you because of Lily and the magical world, I will say this - You are always going to be part of the Whitney family. I also have two people coming from my work to meet you, welcome you here in America and of course make you an American Citizen, just like us." Rose told him happily.
"Really? You do that for me?" Harry asked her, shocked.
"Yes, Harry, I would do anything to make my nephew feel loved in our family and we want you to be safe from all known criminals. The magical government have allowed you to go to Hogwarts by the request of your parents, which I am quite jealous of. I never been to Hogwarts but I ended up going to the Ilvermorny School here." Rose told him.
"What is all this about, mom?" Sarah asked her mother, confused.
"I will tell you plenty more tomorrow dear, but this has to keep secret from everyone. Including your friends, Sarah, or you won't be able to go to Horseland for anymore and Scarlet will have to be move back onto the ranch." Rose told her daughter seriously.
"Yes mom." Sarah replied quickly.
"Now, enough of all this. Let us enjoy a nice meal that Harry here can also enjoy with us." William told them all.
"Really? I can join as well and eat with you?" Harry asked him.
"Yes, Harry, you do look underweight." William told him.
"Thank you, Uncle W and Aunt Rose." Harry said happily.
"No problem, Harry." Rose told him with a smile.
So Harry sat down with his new family at the table and ate the home cooked food, having never had a meal like this before, enjoying talking to everyone in the room while Polynesia looked pleased with her bonded human feeling loved.
