*Sara's Point of View*

"Jai. Are you kidding me?" I whispered. I was in bed with Beau, who'd passed out, in his bedroom turned sex chamber at the Brooks'...we were too tired to go back to the apartment after everything with Emma. We were just sleeping.

"Please, Sara. Please. I have to go." He insisted.

"I bet another train doesn't come for hours." It was 2:30 in the morning and Jai was trying to convince me to go down to the train station with him so he could get a ticket. "You're mum will hear us."

"No she won't."

"But Beau..."

"I already wrote a note that you and I were going down. I'm not coming back to this house until I have my girlfriend by my side."

I sat up, still in my shorts and tank top. "Why do you have to make everything so damn cute."

He smiled. "Let's go, I just need a ticket to Sydney and that's it." He walked out of the room as I slowly swung my legs over the side of the bed. His head popped back in. "Well are you coming?" He whispered loudly.

"Let me change for God's sake!" I hissed.

Beau mumbled something next to me. I gave him a pillow where my body used to be and he wrapped his arm around it drowsily. Jai rolled his eyes as I laughed quietly, putting on a pair of sweatpants and a tshirt.

We walked downstairs quietly, not making a sound. Jai grabbed a key to the house for when we got back, and a key to Beau's car. "Can you drive, Sar?" He asked once we'd finally made it outside.

"You've gotta be fucking kidding me." I said, immediately getting into the passenger side.

"Why?" He said turning on the ignition. The car was a little loud.

"You wake me up to go downtown and expected me to drive?"

He shrugged. "It would've been thoughtful for a close friend that's lost his girlfriend."

I rolled my eyes. "Not today, Jai."

He flicked on the radio to a random station, the hosts weren't playing any music, just talking. "Hey, do you remember that pop duo that only lasted a couple weeks a few months ago?" A guy asked.

"That's right, the Janoskians." A woman answered.

Jai was flustered, trying to switch the stations. Everything reminded him of Emma. 

"Here, I'll just turn it off." I said quietly, pressing the power button.

He blinked a couple times. "Sorry."

I sighed, looking out the window. "You know I'm coming with you, right?" I'd shoved my wallet into my sweatshirt pocket before we left.

He slammed on the breaks. "What? No. I'm doing this alone."

"You could get lost in Sydney! Hurt!"

"That's why I'll have Emma."

I didn't feel like arguing, but I knew I was gonna get on that train.

I shivered a little when it started to thunder and lightning, rain pelting the car.

We drove in silence for a while, until we got to the station and it was obviously empty. We got out and looked at the hours for times to Sydney. A woman was tiredly working the night shift. The next train to live for Sydney wasn't until 8AM.  "See, Jai?" We didn't even have to-"
