A girl by the name of Diana Benson pulled into her best friend's driveway. She walked to her front door with a spring in her step. Happy to tell Elizabeth the good news she just received. Diana knocked loudly on the big white front door and waited for a couple of seconds. Getting no reply the blonde-haired, brown-eyed girl took her keys out of her purse and searched for Elizabeth's house key. Lizzy had given Diana a house key incase she needed to come over and her door was locked. Diana found the key and stuck it in the lock and twisted opening the door. Seeing how the door went into the living room, Diana's eyes were drawn to the sound of Lizzy's TV running. Diana didn't see Lizzy however, instead she saw two men sitting on her couch watching the TV. One man had red hair and had his arms draped over the back of the couch lazily. The other man looked like the smaller of the two. His hair looked like a reddish-brown it wasn't red like the other guys but you could tell there was red in it. The smaller guy wasn't sitting slouched like the bigger man instead he sat more proper on the couch.
"Uh, excuse me?" Diana asked not knowing what to do. In all the time she known Lizzy she has never said anything to the blonde about guy friends, let alone two. The men turned towards the blonde and gave her a confused look. Diana shifted uncomfortably where she stood.
"Hi. Um, do you know where Lizzy is?" Diana asked waving to the men nervously.
"She said she had to go to work lass." Brynjolf stated. Diana cursed herself for forgetting that today was Tuesday and she worked that day.
"Oh, I see well I guess I will just have to go see her at work then." Diana said mostly to herself but the men heard her.
"Oh! Can Cicero come to?" Cicero asked excitedly bouncing in his seat. Diana was a little creeped out by the smaller man. He didn't seem to have all his screws tightened. Diana shifted uncomfortably again.
"Yes lass, can we go as well?" Brynjolf asked this time. Diana looked at the two.
"Can't you guys go yourselves?"
"We are not from around here lass, and we do not know our way around as of yet." Brynjolf explained.
"Cicero promises to be on his best behavior!" Cicero cut in pleadingly. Diana sighed but none the less nodded her head.
"Ok you guys can go with me, seeing how you don't know how to get there." With that the three set off the go visit Elizabeth at work, one wanting to tell her friend the good news and the other two…well who knows?
Lizzy was restocking the bookshelves when she heard the bell above the door chime. Getting up from her spot on the floor where she was restocking she walked to the front of the small bookstore. Her mouth dropped open when she saw who was standing there. Not only was her friend Diana there but Brynjolf and Cicero were behind her looking around the store in awe. Lizzy watched as Brynjolf walked off somewhere in the store and Cicero followed suit, in a different direction.
"Those two are really weird." Diana stated when they were alone. Lizzy laughed nervously.
"Uh, yeah…" She trailed off not knowing what to say. Lizzy shifted uncomfortably in her spot.
"Elizabeth you can go on break now!" Her boss said walking up front where the two girls stood.
"Okay thank you Mrs. Fredrick!" She replied back.
"Diana follow me back to the break room I have to tell you something." Said Lizzy as she motioned for Diana to follow her.
Five minutes later Diana and Lizzy were in the break room.
"Wow! So you are telling me that those guys are video game characters and they are now living with you?" Diana questioned more to herself. Lizzy nodded not know what her friend was going to do with the information.
