I woke up excited, it was the Tuesday that Oliver had decided to come over. We had been writing and decided that today, we'd go an check out the cottage, decide on paint colors and on furniture that we would buy, and start painting. It was about eight o' clock in the morning when I woke up, Oliver said that he'd arrive at the Burrow around nine in the morning, so I had to get ready quickly. I sat up in my bed, reached over to my trunk, and pulled out an old tee shirt (since we would be painting) and a pair of athletic shorts along with some running shoes. I slipped on my outfit before walking over to the bathroom to brush my teeth and put on some makeup. I pulled my hair back into a messy bun, walked out of the bathroom, and walked into the kitchen. 

"Morning," I said cheerfully as I grabbed a cup of coffee. 

"Someone's happy this morning," Charlie teased as I walked over and sat down at the table next to him. 

"Knock it," I joked as I reached over and grabbed the little book of paint swatches and the magazine with furniture off the book shelf next to the table. I had managed to find another Muggle Artifacts store that was near the Burrow that sold both paint and furniture, along with practically everything else that you'd need in a home. My train of thought was interrupted by Fred bumping me off the chair, knocking me onto the ground. 

"I was sitting here," Fred joked, laughing along with Bill. 

"Very funny, hilarious, even," I muttered sarcastically, standing up and smacking Fred upside the head before sitting down across from Charlie. 

"Morning, Maggie," Ginny said, walking into the kitchen and sitting next to me. 

"Good morning to you too, Ginny," Charlie said sarcastically. 

"Good morning, Charles Weasley, better?" She answered, just as sarcastic, which made Fred and I laugh. 

"Good morning, Weasleys and Smallwood," Oliver joked as he opened the kitchen door before walking over and pressing a quick kiss on my lips. 

"Good morning," I said, smiling as I pulled his lips back to mine for another quick kiss.

"Ew," Charlie muttered, throwing a balled up napkin at me. I shot him a glare as I stood up to join Oliver, grabbing my cup of coffee as well as the books of paint and furniture. 

"We're going to the cottage, we'll both be back before dinner, bye Charlie, Ginny," I said, winking at Fred playfully as we both walked out of the door.

"Let's apparate to the cottage, since you already got your license," I suggested, holding onto his hand. He smiled and gave my hand a gentle squeeze before we appeared on the steps to the cottage in milliseconds. 

"Wow, this is a fantastic cottage, it's beautiful," Oliver said with a smile as we walked over to the cottage. I pulled the key out of my pocket and unlocked the front door before walking into the entrance hall. 

(house set up: From the front door, you enter the entrance hall. Right in front of the entrance hall are the stairs to the second level. To the right of the entrance hall lies a short hallway to the living room. To the right of the living room lays the kitchen and dining room. To the left of the living room is the master bedroom and bathroom. The master bedroom and the living room both have doors that access the patio, which leads off to a backyard, then to the lake. When you go up the stairs, you arrive in the family room. Two hallways branch off the family room, on the two walls opposite each other, each lead off to two bedrooms connected by a bathroom. On the wall opposite from the stairs, the wall in between the two that lead off into hallways, lies a long patio that overlooks the front of the cabin. In the right corner of the family room, a small staircase leads up to the only room on the third floor, another bedroom.)
