When Lovino and Rosetta finally returned to the workshop, they found Leonardo bent over a codex page and Ezio asleep in a chair.

"We are back!" Lovino announced upon her entrance through the door, a large bundle of red fabric held in her arms.

Ezio jerked awake and reached for the sword at his side, alarmed by the loud noise.

Rosetta followed her boisterous friend in, giving Ezio an apologetic look.

"Ah!" Leonardo looked up from the page. "You have returned,"

Lovino moved across the room and set the bundle of red fabric on one of the worktables.

Ezio turned to his friend. "All most finished with that?"

Leonardo blinked at him, then nodded. "Yes, I only have two more symbols,"

"Bene," the assassin leaned back in his chair again and closed his eyes. "So? Lovino why all the cloth?"

"Because I need it," she glared at the closed eyed man.

He peeked one brown eye open at her. "What for,"

"Things," she replied cryptically.

He resisted the urge to role his eyes instead opting to sigh and close his eye again.

"You do not need to be so rude," Rosetta walked across the room and leaned one arm on Lovino's shoulder, as if to point out how short she is.

The blond moved out from under her friends arm and glared. "I think there is,"

The inevitable bickering that was about to begin between the two woman was cut short by Leonardo standing up straight and proudly announcing, "Finished,"

"Wonderful," Ezio moved to stand up, and stretched his arms out, the chair was not that comfortable.

Leonardo watched the brunettes muscles shift under his shirt and then blushed looking down when Ezio turned his dark eyes upon him.

With a thankful smile Ezio reached over and grabbed the two papers. "I had best be on my way, many people to assassinate," he chuckled.

"You know I still do not like that you kill people," the blond looked at him with a forlorn face.

The young assassin shrugged slightly. "What else can I do?"

Leonardo hung his head and shook it.

With a sad smile Ezio moved and clapped his hand on the blonds shoulder. "I will be alright," he put on a reassuring face.

"I know," Leonardo's blue eyes where clouded with sorrow. "I worry. I do not wish to lose you to an early death, but I am aware that you must do what you do..."

Across the room Lovino leaned toward Rosetta. "When they talk it is like we do not even exist."

They watched as Ezio pulled his friend into tight a hug.

"Alright!" Lovino stalked across the room waving her hands. "Brake up the bromance! I have work to do!"

Both of the men relinquished the other and looked at her.

"What is a bromance?" Leonardo looked completely perplexed.

Behind her Rosetta began humming a song causing Lovino to burst into laughter. "That is bromance," Lovino stated and still giggling she latched onto Ezio and tryed unsuccessfully to pull him toward the door. "I have much work to do! So get out you big brute!"

deciding to play along the younger man let her pull him to the door, grinning and waving at Leonardo as he walked. "See you later my friend!"

"Ciao, Ezio!"he called back.

At the door Lovino stopped. "Watch out it is raining outside."

"Nothing I can not handle," he tucked the pages safely away and pulled his hood up. "See you later, bella donna?"

The shorter assassin glared good-naturedly. "Not if I can avoid it,"

"Why do you rebuff all of my attempts to flirt with you?"

Lovino rolled her eyes. "Because, while you are extremely handsome, you are not what I am looking for,"

"Oh," he smirked. "And what are you looking for?"

her blue eyes went a bit dreamy as she looked past him. "Tall, blond, blue eyes... pretty much the opposite of you. Well except you are tall, I will give you that," she gave a little laugh. "Now seriously get out of here Leonardo and I have work to do,"

Ezio pulled open the door, but smirked at her knowingly. "Oh, yes... you have "work" to do,"

"Ew! No!" she punched him in the arm. "Not like that! Get out you pervert!"

Laughing the tall assassin lifted his hands up in surrender and stepped out of the door, which was promptly slammed shut behind him.

After the other mans departure Lovino got busy measuring out Leonardo, scribbling down numbers on a parchment as she rushed around him. He squirmed as she poked and prodded him.

"My, my," she smiled as she scribbled down numbers then returned to poking at his waist. "These cloths really hide how skinny you are!"

Rosetta watched from the side, rather uninterested before she looked around the work room and noticed how horribly dirty the place was. "I will clean," she walked to the corner of the room near the flying machine and began rummaging around for a broom. She could have sworn that she saw one back there.

"Gra-zie!" Leonardo said as Lovino poked his side, tickling him. "Would you stop that?" he glared down at Lovino, who smirked up.

"But your reaction is so cute!"

"I am not cute," he crossed his arms.

She shook her head. "Do not pout,"

They where interrupted by a loud crash from across the room. The two blonds turned to see a pile of papers and and canvasses where Rosetta had once been. "Dang it!" her brown hair appeared from under one of the canvases.

Lovino and Leonardo promptly burst into laughter.
