-1George and I decided to order some take-out and stay in. This would constitute as our first date. We spent the biggest part of the day getting to know one another. I told him about my parents dying and me living with my Aunt. And how she bought me this house. "My mom and dad loved London. They wanted to move here, but they died before we got the chance," I explained. "So you don't have any family left," he asked. "No, but now I have you," I said. He was so funny, actually hilarious. He told me all these stories about pranks he and his brother would pull on the rest of the family. He also told me how big his family was, he had five brothers and one sister. Charlie, Bill, Percy, his twin Fred, Ron, and Ginny. "Now I know one of the reasons why in the dream we have so many kids," I said. "Oh yeah, what is the other reason," he asked. "Well I found that out last night, George," I replied. He looked at me and leaned in and kissed me. Before anything happened he pulled away and held me. "I need to go, Fred and I are supposed to test some new inventions," he said as he got up. I didn't want him to go but if he stayed I would never get anything done. "Okay, when do I get to meet this twin of yours? And when do I get to see this joke shop," I asked. "Soon, love soon," he said. I walked him to the door and we kissed, then he was gone.

I spent the rest of the evening trying to get together my business. I knew a few contractors and some businesses I dealt with in New York had offices in London, so that was a place to start. I would start first thing in the morning. Right now I was tired, I decided to take a shower and go to bed. After showering I climbed into my bed. It felt so empty without George. Now I know that sounds kind of weird, I only just met him. But that did not change how I felt about him. I was falling for him, falling hard. I settled in and drifted off to sleep. In this dream I was pacing a room that I didn't recognize. I turned to a mirror and saw I was wearing a beautiful gown. And Amy was there, and a few other girls I didn't recognize. One of them had red hair like George, one had blond hair and when she spoke she had a thick French accent, and the last one had brown hair. As I paced, obviously nervous, another woman (older) walked in and right over to me. "Don't be nervous, dear. I can assure you that George is just as nervous as you," she said. I soon figured out that she was Georges mom, the red haired girl was Ginny, the blond was Bills wife Fleur, and the brown haired girl was Ron's girlfriend Hermione. I felt very comfortable around them. And then an older man (Georges father Arthur) walked in to say it was time. Immediately I felt butterflies and we went to get into places. I was surprised to look over and see Arthur there to walk me down the aisle. I felt like I was getting a second chance at having a family. I felt so loved. Then I was yanked out of my dream by my alarm. Mental note: kill alarm clock.

I spent most of the day, with little success, making calls and trying to set up a client list. No one wanted to hire an no-name from America. After what felt like the hundredth no and the millionth sorry I'll pass, I called Eden. "Eden this is Alysson, and I was wondering if you needed any help with maybe fixing up or decorating one of your flats that you are selling. I made a few calls today and all I got was rejection," I asked. "Sure, I was going to see if you would be my decorator for all my flats that I can't seem to sell. I would welcome your help. I will call you tomorrow with details, okay," she said. I agreed and we hung up. I was so excited now I had a home, a wonderful boyfriend and a job. Life was good.
