It was a long couple of days for him. Between packing, saying good bye, and trying to forget what was truly going on. Benjamin couldn't really remember anything that was important. Everything was pretty much a big blur to him as he mimicked the emotions of just being fine, even If his heart was shattered to pieces after his fiancée left him just over three weeks ago. But he playing it off as he was just fine. That he wasn't upset after what just happened to him. His parents were actually very worried about him and they wanted to go with him to California. This was a fresh start for him though. He just needed to get away from everything for awhile. He is twenty five after all and lived down the street from his parents. They were always around to pick up the mess he had made. It was his time to finally deal with everything. And he felt himself grow older, not the silly man who just got his license to teacher English for high schoolers. It came crashing down on him quickly but he dealt with it. 

Driving for a couple of days, his deep brown eyes were blood shot and he had bags under them that were thick. He needed sleep, he's only been able to get so much since he left Chicago. After four days of traveling to California, he was the only one driving. It was hard for him to just drive by himself. He's a pretty slow driver as it is, seeing as he can't focus as it is. Pulling off his glasses, he wiped his black framed glasses on his shirt when he couldn't read the signs. When he put them back on it was a lot easier for him to see now. It was only Three o'clock in the afternoon but he felt like he could die from being sleep deprived. He had to try to focus on his GPS so he went the right way. And soon enough, he was turning down the street and the house was soon in front of him. A dark looking manor just for him and his sister. He doesn't understand how they are going to be in such a place. "Wow.." He said in a husky voice, his eyes looking over the place as he parked out on the street. The movers were already in the driveway, waiting on him to open up the front door. Shutting off his old black jeep, he made his way out of the car. The heat soon hit him as he was dressed in jeans and a long sleeved red shirt. He was actually surprised and he pulled back his sleeves quick. 

"We'll start putting everything inside once you open up the place, sir." An older man said with a big beer belly, as he cracked his knuckles and nodded to the men standing around waiting to start working. "I don't mean anything by this, but why do you want to live in a big house like this?" The guy asked, giving an uneasy look upon the property. The house really was grand but looked run down over the years. Benjamin didn't really give much of an answer as he shrugged his shoulders and made his way up the front steps to open the front door. He stepped inside to push the door all the way open for the movers to start putting stuff away. It was a nice house and it was old. But a not bad type of old as he was discussing where things should be. A leather couch and black coffee table was placed in the living room along with a television. The office had his desk, a couple of book shelves. He had a passion for reading. And soon enough the kitchen had boxes placed inside for him to start putting everything away. 

The move was going a lot faster then he thought. He joked around with the movers even though he was ready to pass out on the ground. He was able to keep himself up with the pack of red-bull he bought for the trip. Taking his last can, he practically drank it all down and could already feel his body wanting to move. So he continued until the kitchen was spotless and everything was put away before he moved to his office. He was going to use it for when he's a teacher, all of his paper work would be inside. He can already imagine seeing himself grading papers at his desk. It was a nice feeling and having a little love seat and chairs off to the side, he can take a breath when it gets too much. Maybe this whole move was a good idea. All he really needed to do was find a teaching job. He already got a job being a bartender for the time being. 

"Benjamin Lee Davis, if I would have known that you were here I would have been inside helping you." A soft voice called out from the door. He almost didn't recognize it at first until it hit him. It was his sister and he had to peek his head out from the office to see her standing there. Her long brown hair was pulled up into a pony tail on her head as she stood in black short shorts with a white tank top, converse covered her feet. She looked the same to him, maybe a bit skinnier and actually wore make up. He just stared at her as he scratched his head. "Uh... Hey sis." He called out, pulling his sleeves back up again as he wiped at the sweat on his forehead. 

"Its nice to see you too, Ben." Gwendolyn said, standing at the front door with her arms crossed over her chest, while pulling the sunglasses off her face. It was a nice day and she was dressed for the weather, wanting to get a nice tan. She was pale but didn't really get tan, she's just a little darker after being here for two years. It didn't really seem like it was going to make a difference though. She just shrugged her shoulders lightly as a smile formed on her lips. They haven't seen each other in a couple of years and it was nice to see him. They both have changed in different ways. She got taller and was more older looking. And he just grew a beard with more tattoos covering his skin. 

Both of them pushed forward, her wrapping her arms around his neck and his around her stomach. They might have left on a bad note, it didn't mean that they didn't love each other like siblings do. "I've missed you.." Benjamin and Gwen said at the same time. The movers gave them a weird look but they continued to move into the house with the furniture. "Where do you want your bedroom stuff to go? Which room?" One mover asked. "Uh.." Benjamin pulled back from his sister to think about it. "Gwen, go pick your room first and just one for me. I want a lot of windows." He smirked at her, before he just turned and walked off to the office. 

Gwen stood awkwardly for a moment as she didn't even know where she was going. She just nodded as he looked like crap as it is. He seems pretty tired so she wanted to help a bit, her stuff needed to be brought inside herself. So she just looked around before coming across the staircase off to the side. "I guess I'll show you." She said with the mover following after her as they walked upstairs. She had to glance into a couple of rooms to pick which would be hers and which would be his. That got settled quick and she made her way back down stairs to talk to him. "Ben?" She called out. Not getting a response since he was out side in his car grabbing something, she just frowned and started to walk around the house. Going from one room to the next to see what the house is like. It was cute, but big for the two of them.
