It rained as Elise made her way to the garage. Luckily she did bring her umbrella with her so she wasn't drenched. Would've been less fun coming to the garage with soaked clothes.

The door was open but when she entered there wasn't anybody there. She made her way to the kitchen part. "Hello? Anyone here??" She called out.

Han had decided to stay behind while the others had gone to the store to get some shopping done. He hadn't really counted for someone to show up in a while. Walking calmly to the kitchen he found Elise looking around. "Hey there sunshine. Lookin' for anyone in particular?" He chuckled inwardly as she jumped in surprise.

"Where is everyone?"

Han tossed me a packet of gummy bears. "They went to the store, I don't think they'll be back in a while."

I eat a couple gummy bears as I follow him to the couches. "I was thinking of asking Sean but seeing as he's as new here as I am it's probably better to ask you."

He watched me curiously as he sat down. "You don't happen to know where to get a car?"

He smiled slightly. "Sure do, what're you looking for?"

"A Corolla ae86."

He munched on a few gummy bears of his own. "I have one, but it's not ready for driving so you'd have to fix it up." He offered.

"What do you want for it?"

He shrugged. "Help fix a few cars and you can have it."

I give him a disbelieving look. "That's it?"

He chuckled and got up. "That's it, I'll show you where it is."

We went through the whole garage until we reached a car in bad shape. The color is rusty, some parts have to be switched and the engine is missing.

"Here it is. As I said, it needs fixing. The engine is on the table in the corner."

I look the car over before looking at him again. "You're really willing to give this to me?"

Han nods, his trademark smile in place. "As long as you help out with a few cars."

Han adored the look of happiness on Elise face as she looked the car over.

It had been standing there for about a year now anyway and it would help squash the worry for him and the others if she didn't have to walk home at night. He could hear the others come back. "Looks like the others are back."

Elise tore her gaze away from the car when she heard Twinkie talking with Sean. "Think they have anything to eat?" Han only smiled as they went back to the others.

Time skip

After a day of Star Wars (Elise and Sean hadn't seen any of them), soda, candy (unhealthy amounts, not for Han. He always eats candy), and junk food they all fell asleep in front of the tv. Even Han.

The scene I woke up to was completely different to the one I fell asleep to.

Someone moved me from the couch to a room I've never been in before. Going by the picture on the nightstand it must be Han's room. The picture is of him and a few others, they're all smiling and seem to be having a good time.

It's once again quiet when I make my way back to the kitchen area. Sean and Twinkie look up from a blueprint for a car. "Morning sleeping beauty, thought you'd never wake up."

I narrow my eyes at Sean as he tries and fails to hold back laughter. "What time is it?"

"Past twelve, you slept in quite late."

I make a sandwich and hot chocolate before taking a seat by the table. "What are you two doing?"

"An old blueprint Twinkie found. Hey, Han said you'll help us out with a few cars coming in later." Sean said.

I nod absentmindedly while finishing my sandwich. "Yeah, I agreed to help with a few." Sean looked like he had more questions but didn't say anything.
