"Jane are you okay? You look like you saw a ghost" astrid asks

"Jane? I haven't heard that name in a long time..." Cicero mumbles with his hand on his chin

"Sister can you please take your scowl off? Its only polite to do when you introduce yourself" the little vampire girl asks

I nod then slowly take it off while looking at Cicero, he just smiles humbly until the scowl is off and he see's my face

"Sweet sithis...JANE!" Cicero yells running to me and hugging me, kinda picking me up in the process

I hug him tight in return. Everyone looks at us confused

"I'm assuming you two know each other?" Nazir says pointing at us

"We were best friends...when I was thirteen, then he left" I reply while Cicero let's me down

"Oh yes! Cicero is very, verrrrry sorry Jane...I hope you are not mad at me" he says in a high pitch voice

"I'm not mad Cicero but...you've changed since I last saw you"

"You mean he wasn't always a psychopath?" Nazir asks but babette elbows him in the ribs

"Oh but Jane has changed! Oh yes, Jane has definitely changed!"

"Is that bad?"

"No! What Cicero means Jane has gotten more pretty since he's saw you!" He says getting really close to my face

"Okay you two, if your gonna have a make out session please go to his room!" Babette yells blocking us with her hands

"Ohhh, we must go talk about everything in my room!" He says grabbing my wrist and dragging me to his room

I mouth 'help' to everyone but they all laugh at us and wave. When we got in his room he let go of my wrist, and went to a bowl full of sweetroles and carrots. Smiling a goofy grin as he hands me a sweetrole.

"Thanks Cicero"

"You're very welcome Jane! Say, why is your hair white instead of black?"

"Because I inherited my dads genes" I say then look down thinking about him

"How is Mr. Shany? Is he still fighting away teenagers with his ol mighty staff?" He says giggling like a child

"No...i don't know how he's doing"

"What do you mean?" He says tilting his head to the side, causing his hat to fall off

"He went missing..he's one of the reasons I came to skyrim"

"What's the other reason"

"You"

I look up at him and he has a blank expression mostly because he's thinking, I reach over and touch a strand of his red hair

"It has gotten long since I have seen you Cicero" I smile at him

"Cicero has not had anyone to cut it for about two months, if you don't mind cutting it?" he says cheerfully

"Of course, after dinner...which I have to help out with!" I said getting up, only to have him grab my arm making me turn towards him

"Cicero has missed you Jane, would you mind having a sleep over with Cicero!?"

"Of course" I hug him then run out to help Nazir with dinner

I run in and start setting the table only to earn a weird look from Nazir

"Are you helping willingly? Or did astrid make you?"

"Willingly"

"Oh, good. It would be nice to have someone help out"
