A/N The seventh chapter! Lysa's finally out of the hospital, yay!
-o0O0o-
Lysa, Anthony and Ian went home in Ian's car, and Yeraldson followed suite in his. When they arrived at the house, they first did a little tour of the house for Lysa, while Yeraldson was waiting in the living room.
'So, we don't really have a spare bedroom, but we do have an editing room with a spare bed. We can easily put the computer somewhere else so you can sleep there.' Anthony said while walking in the room. 'I hope you like it, it's a little small, but, it'll do.
'It's perfect!' Lysa responded happily. 'Thank you so much again guys, for doing this for me. I owe you so much!' She still couldn't believe this was actually happening. She was actually moving in with Ian and Anthony! How lucky she was, having friends like them. They really were the greatest persons she knew. Not that she knew many people, but still.
'Just consider us even now. This was the least we could do to repay you for saving Ian. And we don't want to see you unhappy either.' Anthony replied. Lysa beamed at him. They were just unbelievable.
'Well, let's go back to Yeraldson, shall we?' Ian said, suddenly realizing they left the man that did so much for them alone.
'Right! Still got some paperwork to sign.' Anthony replied unexcitingly. Clearly he didn't like paperwork.
Yeraldson smiled when the trio walked back in the living room. 'So Lysa, do you like your new home? Do you have a nice bedroom?' Lysa got the feeling he didn't just ask this to be polite. Was this some kind of test? Well, she didn't have to lie.
'Yes, it's great! My bedroom is great, the house is great, the people are great, the neighborhood his great, what more can you ask for?' Yeraldson smiled when he heard the genuine happiness in her voice. 'I guess we can move on to the paperwork then!' Anthony groaned, and Lysa and Ian had to suppress a laugh.
Thankfully for Anthony, the paperwork didn't take that long. They were done after about half an hour, and after he gave a few instructions Yeraldson left.
'I still can't believe I actually live here now!' Lysa knew she'd said it a thousand times, but it was true. Saying she wasn't used to the idea yet was the biggest understatement of the year. Everything was just too big to comprehend in such a short time.
'I know!' Ian said. 'I also really have to get used to the idea. I mean, the sudden presence of a girl in a first men only house is kind of startling.' Lysa looked down ashamed. Why hadn't she thought of that before? She was so stuck in her own world that she really didn't think about what it would mean to Ian and Anthony! Did they even really want her, or did they just do this out of pity and a feeling of justice? Apparently, Anthony noticed her change in mood.
'Hey, don't worry about it. We like change, especially if it's good. And this change Lysa, is definitely good.' Lysa smiled. Could he read her mind or something? This was precisely what she needed to hear.
'Thanks man, you always know what to say.' Anthony just smiled in reaction.
'Okay, well, let's go eat something! I'm starving!' Ian brought them back into reality.
'Now you say it, I could also use some food!' Lysa felt her stomach rumble. 'What do we eat?' Ian and Anthony thought about it for a moment.
'A couple of blocks away is a really good Italian restaurant. We could grab some food there, if you'd like?' Lysa nodded in agreement.
'That sounds good! Are you sure it isn't too expensive though? I don't want to be too much of a burden.' Lysa added unsure.
'Nah, it's okay. We have enough money and it isn't too expensive there anyway. Even if it was, we don't mind.' Ian replied without a care in the world. Lysa smiled widely.
'Okay then! Let's go, I'm starving too.' Anthony urged. The other two followed him out of the house into the car. At that moment, they were the most satisfied people in the world.
-o0O0o-
The restaurant was a nice small place, dimly lit with some chandeliers. On each table stood a candle and it wasn't very busy. There was a family with two little children, a man and woman who where obviously a couple and a group of friends catching up with each other. There were more than enough tables for the trio to sit. A man with dark brown hair and eyes came walking up to them.
'Can I help you?' He asked with a strong Italian accent. Anthony nodded.
'Can we have a table please? We don't have any reservations.' He added, before the man could ask.
'Of course.' The man answered politely. He led them to a table standing next to a wall, apart from the other people present. When the trio was seated he asked if they already wanted some drinks. Ian wanted a bear, Anthony a glass of red whine and Lysa some ice-tea. The man nodded and walked away.
After they got their food, the conversation became more serious. Not that it was hard, since they were talking about the boxman-dance before, but still.
'Hey, we really need to make a list with things we have to do.' Anthony started. 'We can't just go into this blindly, this is a huge change and there's a lot that needs to be done.' Ian and Lysa nodded in agreement. 'Let's just start with the simplest basic things, and then work up from there okay?' Again, the other two agreed.
'Firstly, I need some clothes. I only have the clothes I wore during the accident and I really need some pajamas and stuff.' Lysa began.
'Yeah. We'll also need some girly stuff like hairbrushes and toothpaste.' Ian added. Lysa wasn't sure why toothpaste was girly, but she decided to ignore it. It was Ian. Nuff said.
'I thought about that. I think we can call Kalel and Melanie and borrow the most basic stuff from them before we get it ourselves. That gives us some time.' Anthony replied.
'Good idea.' Ian responded approvingly. Lysa nodded. 'Than we also have the problem of your bed room of course. We need to move that computer.' Ian added to the list. Lysa had an idea for that.
'If you guys don't have any editing to finish tonight, we can do that tomorrow, right?'
'Sure. I guess we'll have time then.' Anthony confirmed. 'Also, we have to make a schedule for who brings you to the hospital for your weekly check-ups. I think Ian and I'll have enough time for that, but we've lost quite some time this week, and we'll have to make sure.' Lysa tried not to feel too guilty because of that. They'd already told her thousands of times they didn't care and that she didn't have to feel guilty, and she was going to listen to them.
'We also have the school-issue.' She said. Anthony and Ian looked at her surprised.
'You want to go to school? But is that even possible with your head wound and your memory-loss?' Ian asked skeptically. Lysa said her jaw, determent to get her point across.
'Look, I agree that I should stay home for at least the first week.' She was interrupted by Anthony.
'Yeah, just like the rest of the time! School doesn't work together with memory loss and head wounds!' Lysa sighed. Ian and Anthony really were a bit overprotective. She couldn't really blame them, since she could only imagine what she looked like just after the accident, but still. It was kind of annoying.
'As I was saying, I should stay home for at least the first week to give my head wound some time to heal further. After that I'd really like to go to school.' She raised her hand, as she saw that Anthony and Ian were about to protest again. 'Just hear me out, please?' She pleaded. Anthony and Ian reluctantly nodded. 'As I have said for what feels like a thousand times, we don't know when my memory will return, and in the time that it hasn't returned yet, I still want to have a life. To have that, I have to go to school. Maybe someone on my school knows who I am, who knows? And even if they don't know me, it'd still be worth a try.' She paused to take a breath and see if her words had made an impact on the smosh duo. They still looked unconvinced so she continued.
'What if my memory never returns, or if it takes years? I can't stay home forever! Besides, education is very important.' Ian and Anthony already looked a bit less determent, but they still weren't convinced.
'Look, all good and well that you want to go to school and all, but is it even possible with amnesia? How will that work? You'll have to start in primary school!' Ian protested.
'I don't think so. I only forgot personal information, remember? I can remember my history and all. I don't think knowledge will be that big of a problem. It'll just be strange if I have to write an essay about my life or something.' Ian and Anthony still looked unconvinced, but they were reasonable people. Lysa was sure that they'd come around eventually.
'Look, you don't have to decide about it immediately. Just, think about it okay? I really think this can work.' They sighed.
'I guess we can think about it.' Anthony surrendered. 'But no promises!' Lysa smiled.
'Thank you! Now, let's eat our pizza, before it gets cold.'

A/N So, the first chapter out of the hospital! I realize not much had happened here, but this story wasn't meant to be sensational or something. More will happen in the next chapters though; how will the smosh duo deal with a teenage girl in their house? Anyway, please review! Constructive criticism is very welcome!
I also realized that this is probably is how the updates will continue: not very much (or no updates) during schooldays, and in the weekend one or even two updates. Please tell me if you like that! I'm not going to keep a schedule though, that's not my strong point. And almost all the writers that do use a schedule can't keep it, so I think it's pretty pointless. Peace off!
