Home is Where the Heart is

London

Phil and Sara arrived in London a little past noon. Phil helped Sara get her luggage down from the overhead storage. 

"Thank you," Sara laughed just noticing the height difference between the two of them. Sara was about 4'11" and Phil must have been close to 6'2"

Sara grabbed her backpack and flung in onto her shoulders and wheeled her luggage out with her as Phil got his backpack. They made it out to the station. They walked over to a wall so they could get organized. Phil pulled out his mobile to give his friend a call. 

"I'll be one minute," Phil said as he dialed the number. 

Sara nodded her head to say okay. 

"Hey I'll be bringing someone home, are you cool with that," Phil asked into the phone. 

"What, are you serious," a voice yelled through the phone. 

"Yes, I'm serious, we meant on the train and she will be coming home with me," Phil said proudly. 

"Fine, I guess that's fine, I'll clean a bit, just make sure she isn't a crazy fangirl or some killer, okay," the voice said. 

"Oh my god, Dan she is perfectly fine, trust me okay," Phil wined. 

"Okay, okay, I trust you, just hurry home," the voice called. 

"Okay, bye-bye," Phil singed.

"Goodbye," the voice said annoyed. 

"Okay, well that was Dan and you are coming home with me," Phil smiled ear to ear. 

"Sounds great," Sara whistled. 

The two headed out of the station to go get a cab. Phil was able to flag down a cab with no problem. they loaded Sara's luggage in the back. Phil helped Sara into the cab as he told the cabbie the address. 

"This is so exciting," Sara whispered to Phil. 

"This is going to be great," he smiled at her. 

Sara noticed Phil liked to smile a lot. For some reason it made Sara feel comfortable and it didn't feel like Phil was hitting in her at all. He was just a friendly guy to get along with. Sara didn't really have a lot of girls for friends. All she really remembers as her friends were guys. Brandon, Josh, Zach, Alex, and Jude where are closest friends back in the country. A lot of girls would get jealous, actually. They never liked it if Sara talked their boyfriend but Sara couldn't help it that her friends were dating some girls. It never bothered Sara though. She just could connect to guys more easily then girls. Her mother always told her that was a good thing for a young girl to have but Sara just didn't see it as good or bad. It was just her life. 

Sara looked out the window to see London for the first time. It was even more beautiful then she excepted. The buildings were huge and stunning and so many people everywhere. It was fantastic to her; the small town she grew up in was microscopic to London. Sara's eyes were saucers as the cab inched its way through the city. Phil tapped Sara's shoulder making her jump. 

"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you," Phil laughed. 

"It's okay," Sara half smiled at Phil. 

"I just wanted to let you know that I didn't tell Dan that you are staying with us so don't bring it up right away, you'll just stay a couple days without us telling him and he will be fine with it, I swear," Phil laughed again. 

"Okay haha that sounds like a good idea,"Sara giggled. 

They continued talking as the cab drove to the flat. They seemed to really hit it off. They shared a lot of the same interests and their connection grew more. They finally got to the flat. Phil paid for the cab and helped Sara. She was in awe of her surroundings and tried to take in everything thing. Phil guided her to the door and helped her carry her luggage up to his flat. He fumbled his keys but was able to get the door open. 

"I'm home and brought some one," Phil called in.
