Another day passed and still no idea. He had been told to make her something rather than buy her a gift but he wasn't that type. He was a thief, not an artist or a craftsman. He looked down at the numbers below him but just couldn't focus. He sighed and sat back into the seat. He would never be able to focus until her birthday passed.

Perhaps take her back home to Solitude for the weekend? There was always something exciting going on in that town. What if he baked her something? He shook his head. No that wouldn't end up well. Not with the guild anyways.

" What's wrong? Something on your mind?"

He looked up and saw Kyra standing there.

" Just thinking."

" About?" She asked as she made herself comfortable on the desk.
" Just things."

" Ah so it's one of those things where you're not going to tell me." She spoke as she picked up a gem that was sitting on the edge of the desk and held it up. " We've all been working so hard. I wish we could spend time together for once as a guild."

Brynjolf's ears twitched at her words.
" You want it that badly?" He asked carefully. She nodded.
" I do. But at the same time I want the girls to have a chance to be girls. Not one of the boys."

Ah this was confusing. Where in the world would he start with this information?

" I didn't take you one to be pampered." He smirked.

" I'm not." She looked at him out of the corner of his eyes the set the gem back down. " I want a chance for all of us to sit around and laugh. No one arguing, no one out on a job. If the girls want they could wear the nicest nightgown they could find and the boys could drink their mead. That sounds lovely doesn't it?"

He couldn't lie. It really did. He suddenly grew a new foundation of respect of her. She didn't want anything for herself, she wanted something for everyone to enjoy. And if that's what she wanted then that is what she would get.

" How much!" Brynjolf growled. The renter sat across from him and crossed his arms.

" Take it or leave it."

Brynjolf took a moment to calm himself. It was a rip off. An absolute rip off. But what other choice did he have? He wouldn't find anything like this unless he traveled across skyrim. So he coughed up the money, snatched the key and walked away.

He swung his leg over his horse and gave a kick. He said to follow down the rode and turn left once he saw the biggest tree on the side of the rode.

He rode up to the cottage and tied his horse off. It was such an odd feeling to step into a house without needing to pick a lock.

He nearly gasped at the sight as he stepped inside. It was huge. Two stories with plenty of rooms, a big gathering room as well as a kitchen. When he had mentioned the idea to Vex and Delvin both were instantly on board. So he decided to leave the hunting to them.

The plan was to rent a cabin or house for a few days. No one was to go on a job, think of a job or even speak of a job. Here everyone was going to relax and enjoy themselves, just like how Kyra wanted them to. Though it seemed like the perfect idea, it was from the entire guild. He wanted to give her something specifically from him and him only. He wanted to top the necklace Vilkas had given her. He wanted to win her over and steal her heart. After all he wasn't a thief for nothing.

" What is going on?" Kyra asked as she groped the empty air. " You guys are scaring me."

Vex and Delvin led her confidently through the forest since the blindfold was blocking her vision. Behind her the rest of the guild followed along, eager to see her reaction. Brynjolf opened the door and allowed them to step inside.
" Bryn-" She whispered. Her mind went racing. What could have gone wrong? Had someone gotten hurt? Did a job go bad?

Brynjolf's finger worked at the cloth and finally it fell from her face. Kyra stood there, shocked and frozen in place. Her eyes roamed around almost like a child's when they are introduced to their new home.
" What is this?" she asked as she looked back at them all.

" You told Brynjolf that you wanted time with the guild. So that's what you're getting." Vex explained proudly.

" Happy early birthday Kyra." Delvin followed. The rest of the guild echoed behind him. Brynjolf thought for sure she was going to cry. Her hands rose and covered her mouth, as if the shock was still too overwhelming for her. But she quickly pushed the tears down and gave a smile.

" Since we're here, who's ready to finally relax?"
They all cheered and stepped inside. As they began to figure out who was sharing a room with who Kyra stole a glance at Brynjolf. She'd definitely have to thank him for this later.
