Rebekah shifts, waking up. Rebekah feels arms tighten around her waist, making her look down. Billy. Rebekah turns her body so her heads on his chest.

Rebekah looks on the floor and sees Max, passed out on the floor. Rebekah smiles a bit and looks at Billy. A few minutes go by.

"Stop staring." Billy murmurs and Rebekah puts her head back on his chest. Rebekah looks at the clock. '7:48'. Rebekah rolls her eyes and they both fall back asleep since it was a weekend.

Max shakes Rebekah awake. "Dude." Billy drags out, turning. "Can you take me to the arcade? Please?" Max asks and Billy looks at the he clock. '12:24'.

Rebekah groans, sitting up. "Yeah. Come on." Rebekah stands up and spins around, pulling on Billy's hand. "Just take my car." Rebekah looks at Max.

"Fine." Rebekah grabs his keys and bends down, putting her shoes on. Rebekah pushes Max out and they step out of the room.

"He's letting you drive his car?" Susan asks. "I'm special." Rebekah says, grabbing her leather jacket. "Let's go, Max." Max walks out and Rebekah follows, shutting the door.

Max and Rebekah get in the car and Rebekah starts it. "You're really special. He'd kill anyone for even going near his car." Rebekah laughs a bit, pulling away. "If you say so." Rebekah says, turning. "Oh, I do. I do say so." Max says and Rebekah laughs.

"Sure." Rebekah drags out. "I'm serious, dude. I've never seen Billy so... soft." "Billy is far from soft." Rebekah retorts and Max looks at her.

"Rebekah, you're the only one who can insult his ego. Anyone else he'd probably punch." Rebekah pulls a face, turning. "I'd let him." "Hey, woah." Max says and Rebekah snickers, speeding up.

"Are you for real?" Max presses. "Dead serious." Rebekah says and Max blinks frantically. "I'll be sure to tell him that." Max says. "Don't you dare." Rebekah says and Max laughs.

Rebekah pulls up to the arcade. "Keep your mouth shut." "No promises." Max says, getting out. "Maxine." Rebekah warns and she leans on the open window.

"Rebekah." Max taunts. "I'm gonna smother you with a pillow. You have an hour and I'll be back. Most likely with Billy." Rebekah says. "An hour or-." "Walking home. Yeah, yeah. I know." Max says. "Hey! Watch the attitude, shitbird." Rebekah says.

"You spend a little bit too much time with him." Max says. "Get off the car and go." Rebekah says and Max pushes off the car.

Rebekah pulls away and drives to the station. Rebekah parks and gets out. She walks into the station. "Bekah, Bekah, Bekah, wait." Rebekah looks at her. "He's not here." "What do you mean he's not here?" Rebekah asks, putting her hands flat on the desk.

"He never came in." Rebekah's heart sinks. Rebekah runs out and jumps in the car. Rebekah speeds back to the house and runs in. "Billy." Rebekah says, slamming open his door.

"Hopper didn't go into work today." Billy stands up and follows her out. "What's going on?" Susan asks. "Some stuff with my family." Rebekah says, walking out. Billy shuts the door and they run to the car.

Billy pulls up to Rebekah's and they run in. "Holy mother Mary." Billy looks at her. "Wrong Mary. I went to the station and got told he didn't show." Joyce snaps her head to Rebekah.

"Oh, god." Joyce whispers and Rebekah rubs her hand down her face. "Bekah!" Rebekah runs to Will's room and Mike gives her the drawing. Rebekah runs back out and starts looking for it's place.

Billy looks at the drawing in her hands. "There." Rebekah pins it up.

"He's trippin'!" Rebekah runs to the room. Rebekah watches him draw like his life depended on it. He finishes. "Hey, is this where you saw him? Is this where you saw Hopper?" Rebekah asks.
