"how you doing?" he asks sarah, who still had her eyes open.

"never better." she smiles, "you know what i was thinking?"

"what's that?" he asks.

"let's get married." she says and claire's lips tug at a smile.

"don't we need like a preacher or something?" john b says.

claire's eyes shoot open and she looks up at him.

"i'll be the preacher!" she says and sarah laughs.

"what about the rings?" he asks.

"what about the rings." sarah says, not caring about the rings, "i mean for future reference, i like princess cut. ilike emerald cut." sarah lists.

"i got an idea." john b says and takes his bandana from his neck. he tugs off a small piece and smiles at it. he hold it up to sarah and she smirks.

"princess cut. my favorite." she jokes.

"i give you this sweaty piece of my father bandana as a token of my love." john b says and ties it as a necklace around sarah's neck.

"claire?" he says and she stands up.

"hold on let me try to remember." she says and then clears her throat.

"by the power invested in me, by the sky and the stars and the sea, i pronounce you husband and wife." she says and john b smiles.

"through sickeness and health, through rich and poor, till death do us part." the couple both spoke.

"you may kiss your bride." claire says and watches in awe as john b and sarah lean in.

she claps as they pull apart and pulls them both into a hug.

"can we get a dog?" sarah asks.

"leta just get home first." john b says.

"let's get a dog!" sarah giggles.

"what are you gonna name it." claire asks her sister.

sarah pretended to think for a minute before gasping and grabbing her sisters shoulders. claire gaps in realization.

"poguie!" they both exclaim and john b shakes his head while laughing. they drive for hours before claire perks up at the sight of land.

"land!" she squeals.

"looks like a pretty big town. should we find somewhere less crowded?" sarah cringes at the sight of the bustling town.

"we're almost out of fuel. we don't have a choice." john b says from behind the wheel.

claire looks up at a sign on the bridge above them and smiles.

"look it's charleston!" she points.

unknown to the three, kie, pope, and jj drive across that same bridge that exact moment and jj speaks out, "wonder where john b and sarah are right now." he says and starts thinking about where his girlfriend is too. all he knew was what kie told him about her going to the bahamas with rafe and ward to get the gold again. maybe claire is with john b and sarah right now. or worse. hurt. he snapped that thought away quickly though.

john b pulled the boat up to shore and anchored it down into the sand while claire helped sarah out. john b grabbed the plastic gasoline cans and carrie's them while claire walked with sarah.

"hey, listen, we're gonna get some gas, find a phone, and get out of here, all right?" john b tells them.

"how are we paying for the gas?" claire asks him.
