I grumble to myself a bit as I tape up a box with the words 'clothes' on the side. I hear a small voice on my phone as I look over, I rub the back of my neck looking at the phone on a near by box "yo you good homie?" My friend Red says on the call we're on "yeah why?" I ask, my brows knitting together in confusion "I thought I heard you say something, you sounded a little upset." They say as another friend pipes up "Moving stressing you out?" Myth says picking up my phone "A little bit honestly...I guess it's a little intimidating moving to a whole other country, let alone across the sea. How did you guys do it?" I ask pacing a bit around the room "it wasn't too bad as we got here, Oh speaking of moving! We got your furniture here, I have to reassemble your bed though still, I promise you will have a bed when you get here." Red says, some background noise being present for them signaling they stood up. "You better or I'm not gonna do my share of chores." I say smiling as myth starts to scream pressed "are you kidding me!? I live here too!" She screams as Red and I laugh "alright alright I guess I'll help out with chores." I say still laughing a bit. "You guess!? Red quick go make the bed!" Myth shouts as Red groans "but I'm in the middle of a game..." they grumble as I smile listening to the two argue "Red!" Myth says sternly as they grumble. "Fine I'll go make the bed...only so I don't have to do the dishes." Red says, the noise of red leaving the discord call going off. "Glad I don't have to sleep on the floor." I smile a bit. "I have to go anyway, I have to get the rest of the boxes to the post office and get ready to go to London." I add on as myth responds with a groan. "I'll talk to you when I get there." I say pressing the hang up button, looking around at the room.

No one's pov
Izzy looks at the full body mirror, flattening down her blazer looking at the outfit, consisting of a black knee length pencil, a white button up and a black blazer. She looks at the clock on her side table and curse to myself, grabbing my flats putting them on as Izzy hops out of her room, the smell of breakfast flowing through out the house. She runs downstairs seeing Myth, Red and Val in the kitchen surrounding the island, each of them with a plate of food "morning Izzy." Val says already ready for the day. "Breakfast?" Red greets through a mouthful of omelette as they gesture to the buffet style breakfast on the oven "I can't, I'm late, Red can I get a ride?!" Izzy says hurrily, in distress. Red nods speed walking to the door, grabbing they're leather jacket and motorcycle helmet as they pass by. "Alright hurry up!" They say finishing the bite of they're bagel walking out, Izzy nods grabbing the spare helmet . Walking out, Izzy spots Red already sitting on the motorcycle, the motor purring. Izzy hops onto the motorcycle, as Red starts to speed to the museum. "Christ Red! You need to slow down a bit!" Izzy holds onto Red tightly "it's this or being late to your first day of work." Red says as the museum comes into view quickly due to the speed, the motorcycle skids to a stop Izzy hopping off. "Thanks Red! I owe ya!" She says hurrying to the entrance of the museum. "Get me one of those Egyptian hippo god plushie, love that little lady!" They say before heading back to the house.

Izzy's POV

I hurry into the museum, clipping on my name tag looking down at my blazer, I feel the impact of something almost falling I feel hands holding me up. "Are you okay?" I hear a voice say as I look up and nod "yeah shit I'm sorry..." I trail off looking at the name tag reading it "Steve." I finish smiling a bit nervous. "It's fine, oh you must be the new tour guide right?" The man named Steve questions as I nod "yeah, I slept a bit too in."  I explain as Steve nods a woman walking up to us "hello you must be Izzy the new tour guide." The woman says, she has blonde hair, definitely older. "My name is Donna your supervisor." She says smiling to me,
her smile dropping as she looks over to Steve "you, I need you to start on getting the Egyptian stuff on display alright, it's going to debut today and last thing we need is a bunch of little kids getting all upset over not being able to get a bird stuffie." She says as Steven nods "I think your referring to Osiris, the god of the su-" he gets cut off by the woman "whatever alright, go start now." She says sternly as Steve looks at me "it was lovely meeting you." He says before hurrying off to the gift
Shop. I look to the woman "alright take this book, it has all the information on the exhibits your going to be guiding in, your job today is to learn about them and memorize them." She says putting a book in my hands. "Alright thank you ma'am." I says "oh and if you can, do it in the gift shop, the other worker is out today, caught the flu and between you and I, Steven is a bit incompetent." She whispers at the end as I nod awkwardly before heading off to the gift shop. I spot Steven stocking the shelves with plushies, figures and paperweights of various Egyptian items, I spot the hippo god plushie and walk over examining it. "Interested in Taweret?" A voice beside me asks as I look over seeing Steven "oh I'm not, my friend is, they actually managed to get me here and asked me to get this for them, they love hippos so I figured I could get it for them as a thank you." I over explain a bit glancing at the plush "ah, I see, well we get employee discounts, I reckon it'll be good since those are 30 quid." He says as I look down at the plush "30 pounds really?" I ask shocked looking at the price tag "We only get a fourty percent discount but I don't think the museum will mind if I add another ten." He says a small smile present on his face "are you sure?" I ask looking down at it "yeah, consider it a small welcome gift , well I mean even though it's not for you." He responds "well can I get two in that case so I can get one?" I ask as he nods "I'll buy the one for you, I have extra money I don't mind spending it on you." He says as I smile "thank you, I appreciate it." I thank him looking at the time "oh i should let you get back to work...its 30 till opening." I walk to the counter, walking behind it, putting the plushies under the counter and starting to read the book.

Izzy's POV
I walk into the museum greeting the other employees as I walk in, I look at the reception desk, Donna walking away as Steven looks a bit disappointed "Donna on your case again?" I ask walking up leaning on the counter "yeah yeah I'm fine..." he runs a hand through his hair, I can't help but stare a bit as he does so. He looks to me confused "did you need something?" He asks as I nod "yeah I was wondering if you would want to go out for dinner tomorrow , there's this place near Big Ben that has some really good pasta." I say messing with the hem of my blazer a bit nervous at what his answer is gonna be "are you asking me out on a date?" He asks as I nod biting my lip "I would love to." He says smiling as I look up at him a bit shocked "really?" I ask as he nods "yeah of course." He responds as I tap the counter "alright cool." I smile "I'll see you tomorrow." I say before walking off to go start my tour

The next day

I sit anxiously at the table I got waiting for him, I glance around tapping the table, looking at my phone sighing. It's been an hour and a half, no sign of Steven, the waiter walk over to the table "If your not gonna order your gonna have to give up your table." He says as I look up and nods "right...I'll just have the chicken Alfredo." I say looking down disappointed at the fact he's not here. What's Wrong With Steven???
