Ben nodded. "My friend said he'd take care of arranging for the work. He's done a lot of house repair with his father and brothers in the summer, so he'll know what will need to be done," he said. "But the first two months rent are free, if we handle the repairs ourselves, so it's sort of a wash financially."
Ben grinned. "If you're free tomorrow we could go see the property. The estate agent said to just pop in anytime, and I have until the end of the week to let her know I'm interested," he said. This might be turning out to be another lucky night. "It's in Surrey, in a mostly Muggle neighborhood, so we'll need Ministry sanctioned anti-Muggle spells I'd think. Among other things."
He thought for a moment that James was a werewolf too, but then realized he meant he was an Animagus. "That's great. He was worried i wouldn't be able to find someone who would be accepting, but I knew I would. Things have a way of working out if you want them to." At least, they always had for Ben, to a large extent. At least when it came to things like housing, roommates, shagging and pets.
