Agent 3's (Sarah's) P.O.V:

"Here we go.."

I thought to myself as we stepped foot out of the train and onto the train station platform. A sign overhead saying "Welcome To Seatrail" welcomed us. Anxiously, I gripped onto Mike's hand a bit tighter.

The sky had already turned into a pitch black color, the only things illuminating the night were the overhead bright stars and the town lights.

"So this is your hometown.." Mike murmured, curiously looking around as he held my head. I tried to respond, but I felt like I couldn't talk. I nodded shyly.

I got a nostalgic feeling as we walked through the towns main area where there was more traffic and more inklings. I remembered a lot of my life before I moved to Inkopolis, and I began to ease up a bit. Just small memories, like how Jake and I used to hangout a lot as little kids and often went together shopping with Isabel once we were older.

"Hey, Sarah? How far is your place from here?" Mike asked curiously, breaking me free from my daydream. Rolling my bag beside me, I shrugged. "I dunno honestly, I just know that it does take a while to walk there." Mike stared at me blankly for a moment, nodded, and proceeded to pull out his phone. "We should call a taxi then."

Later...

Thanking the taxi driver, we stepped out of the car, and we both went to the trunk to retrieve our bags. "Are you nervous, Mike..?" I asked him, peering over to him as we took our bags out. "Kind of." He chuckled, fixing his tentacle hair once again.

Once we retrieved our luggage, the taxi drove off onto the street. Both Mike and I turned around to face my house, and took a deep breath in unison. "Wow, your place is a lot bigger than I thought.." Mike stared in awe. I let out a soft, but tired giggle as we made our way up the driveway and to the front door.

I felt my face begin to heat up as we approached the front door. I couldn't take the anticipation anymore. Slowly, I lifted my hand up to ring the doorbell. A quick jingle was heard echoing from inside of the house before falling silent again.

"Honey, I think she arrived!"

My dad called out. I gulped nervously.

Mike held my hand reassuringly.

Mike and I stood at the front door, shifting nervously and eagerly, trying to calm ourselves down.

Slowly, the door opened, revealing my parents.

*A.N. Sarah's Full Name: Sarah Beryl
Beryl - Greek origin meaning "sea-green jewel", basically an emerald. Sarah's eye color: emerald green. I think it fits :3

Agent 8's (Mike's) P.O.V:

Taking deep breaths, I tried to maintain my composure and chill. My heart was beating rather quickly, and I could feel my mouth drying up.

"Hi sweetie! How have you been!" Sarah's mom exclaimed as she embraced her. Sarah's dad quickly hugging her as well. "I've been doing good.." Sarah chuckled happily yet nervously. 

"Oh! I see you brought a friend with you t-"

"An Octoling?!"

A.N. Sorry for such a short chapter but I thought I'd extend this across to one more chapter and I'm just going to keep writing this fake gibberish so that it looks like it's ending.

Word Count: Haha jk
