I'm going to make this place your home. {mallory}

Honestly, what had he been thinking? He could barely handle living on his own -  he didn't know what inviting his girlfriend to live with him was going to do other than drive him into the brink of insanity. He was nervous, scared, alarmed, and felt like he was going to vomit all over. She was going to be here soon, in his flat, with her stuff. He had made sure he had hidden all of his dark magic materials so she wouldn't get suspicious or afraid because frankly the two of them were on the opposite ends of the spectrum when it came to their beliefs.

Chael threw himself upon his couch, trying to look relaxed but it wasn't working. He stood up, took a deep breath, sat down again, and repeated. His home was meticulous and he hoped Mallory intended to keep it that way as well. Just as he began thinking about all the ways she could possibly destroy his home, he heard the small doorbell chirp and he got up and flew to the door.

"Mallory! Do you need help?!" he practically screamed in her ear.

Nerves were making Mallory Harrison's hair a kaleidoscope of colors. Her bangs were a bright turquoise green, there was pink, blue and purple everywhere else. The colors were changing every five seconds. Why would her ability have to be determined by her fears or nerves? This woman was doing something she would never thought she would do in a couple years... move in with a boyfriend. Mallory was pretty independent and loved being able to support herself. It took her a year to be able to that. It would be nice to live with someone and not have to work two jobs to be able to support herself though. Mallory would have the chance to work on her fashion designing and maybe have the chance to become an auror even if Chael was not supportive about her job choices. He did not even know his girlfriend was a model. He might approve of that though.

This was full on commitment for Mallory, it was not marriage but it was close to it. Mallory was a flirt and this was pretty much saying she was putting her full life into one person. Yes, she was freaking out a little bit... ok maybe a lot. There was a lot that Chael did not know about her but they were taking that risk and moving in with each other. There was a lot that she did not know about this boy either. They basically did not speak for a couple months while he was finishing school and Mallory was working and being flirtatious. This was the last chance she had to see if Chael and her were meant to be like she had the thoughts of. If they cannot live together then they would not be able to survive marriage let alone children. It was a big step.

Mallory filled her arms with two boxes and two other boxes were hovering with a spell. Many of her furniture from her old apartment was already set in a magical storage bin so she would always have them just in case. It was her parent's idea. They understood their daughter has been dating this boy off and on since their fifth year. They were supportive as much as they could be but they were Ravenclaws and always had a back up plan for their gentle and overprotected daughter. Using her nose to ring the doorbell the man she was going be sharing an apartment instantly answered the door. He always looked so beautiful. He was practically screaming in her ear if she needed help... a chuckle escaped her lips as her hair flashed a rainbow color. "Maybe take the floating boxes, not sure how much longer the spell is going to last..." She smiled at him... she still stood outside the door. Mallory felt like she was going to have a panic attack. She did not know where to put anything let alone know where to even go. She was going to have to share his space... it felt weird. This was his stuff and just everything did not feel like her. Chael and Mallory were complete opposites.

"Where would you like me to put this?" She raised an eyebrow at him, still waiting outside the door.
