"we're drivin' down the road, i wonder if you know
i'm trying so hard not to get caught up now."

JOHN B raised an eyebrow as neither of the sisters talked. He guessed it was the trauma, the shock, and that they couldn't bring themselves into. But he was curious, not understanding what was going on as Evelyn kept on driving. He cleared out his throat, "So, you're not trying to kill us anymore?"

"I haven't decided yet" She narrowed her eyes at him through the rear-view mirror.

Sarah rolled her eyes, "Please, let's try not to kill each other." Evelyn glanced back at the road, focusing as her sister sighed.

"Fine. But you still have some explaining to do." She noticed the confusion of the other two, "I've heard Rafe's version of the story, Ward's, even Wheezie's crazy theories. I wanna hear yours."

JB was about to speak when Sarah's eyes stopped him. Being intimidated by her threatening gaze, he leaned back and letted her speak, "All you need to know is that John B didn't kill Peterkin." She began to explain how they survived, and who Cleo was. All while omitting the fact that Rafe was the one to kill Peterkin, John wondered why. The truth is, Sarah knew her sister all too well. And she knew how freaked out she would get. And how she wouldn't believe it until it came out from his own mouth. Still, she probably would deny it. Rafe wasn't a murder in her mind. But only there. The trio was nearing the docks, "How much time do we have?" Sarah asked her fiancée.

"Not much." He replied as they heard the police sirens wailing, "Shit, the police."

"Leave it to me." Evelyn said from the driver's seat, lowering her white top slightly. The couple behind her raised their eyebrows, unamused.

"Down. Slow down." The officer ordered.

She came to a stop in front of him, a sweet smile on her face, "Hi, officer. What comes to be the issue?"

"The road's close." He replied.

She pretended to be more surprised than she already was, "Oh, my! I'm so dumb! Excuse me, sir. I'll leave in no time." He nodded once and left.

"Guys," Sarah caught their attention, pointing to what the police officers were carrying, "We lost the gold."

"Shit. I'm sorry, Sarah." John said as Evelyn sighed. The police officer in front of them glanced from his phone to the car, seeing two people leaning behind the driver's seat, "Evelyn?"

"Fuck." She cursed under her breath, starting the car again. Lynn ignored the officers as she speed around the streets. Sarah and John bumped into each other as she drove through curves, "This is just like in those movies with the hot people!"
