A/N: Most if not all of the following info of how the house is set up is taken from the Harry Potter Lexicon, and I do not own it. Visit it here: #ground_floor

The group stepped out of the fire one by one. There was a massive cauldron of soup boiling in the corner, and Kreacher was bustling around the kitchen, humming off key in a fluffy white towel.

"Kreacher made all the rooms ready for Master Harry," he croaked.

"Thanks Kreacher," Harry said. Kreacher teared up and Harry shifted uncomfortably. "Can you... er... help them take their things upstairs and show them their rooms please?" At the word please Kreacher lost it, and sobbed the whole way upstairs, the other following him.

Kreacher took them on a tour of the house. The front door opened into a long hallway, lit with gas lamps and a large overhead chandelier. Harry remembered how covered in cobwebs they had been, and marveled at how much cleaning Kreature had done; everything gleamed. On one side of the entry hall sat a dining room, and the beautiful, ornately carved table and chairs gleamed in soft candle light.

A door at the far end of the entry hall a set of narrow stone stairs led to the basement, and the house's kitchen. Kreacher cleaned the room up and made it sparkling. Also in the basement, just off the kitchen, was a dark pantry and another cupboard off the kitchen houses the boiler for the house, as well as Kreacher's den.

The second floor, as well as the third floor, had beautiful bedrooms. Luna's was on the second floor and consisted of a large bed with a beautiful bed frame and covers in shades of light blues and golds. The fire place was roaring, and there was a large bookshelf with hundreds of old books. The first thing Luna did was start putting out pictures of her friends and family. They left her to it and took Draco to his room.

It was done in grays, and he seemed to take to it nicely. There were several books and a large mirror, and it had its own bathroom attached to it. His broom and eagle owl were already there, and for a moment, Harry's heart dropped into his throat as he thought about Hedwig, but then they were moving again, and Harry was forced to swallow and move on with them.

Ginny's room was on the third floor, and it was done in muted pinks. All over were books related to quidditch and cross breeding, two of her favorite subjects. Harry smiled at his friend, and was glad he had sent Kreacher shopping for his friends' rooms before they arrived.

Ron and Hermione both had two rooms on the third floor. Hers was filled with books on every subject, as well as a potions kit and a telescope. Ron's was covered in quidditch posters and red and gold apparel. Hermione's was done in purples and silvers.

Finally, it was just Harry and Kreacher. Harry had a room in green on the fourth floor, It had books, as well as a pensive, and his broom was in the corner. Kreacher looked at Harry and said, "Kreacher locked Master Sirius and Master Regulus' rooms liked Master Harry said. Here is the key."

Harry looked at Kreacher seriously and said, "I don't want anyone but myself going into those rooms please. My friends are guests, and to be treated like family, and I expect them to treat you the same. If someone does not, you need to let me know. And lastly, I do not want you crying when we say please, thank you, or sorry."

"Yes Master Harry," he said, bowing low.

"Thank you Kreacher," he said. "Will you please go look after dinner now?"
