The FBI finally arrived to take Simon (who was still unconscious) away. We just stood there and watched, occasionally shaking the hands of people who walked over to thank us. At some point, a man in a suit and sunglasses came over to us. I wondered why he was wearing sunglasses because it was like 2 a.m. I guess he wanted to look cool I don't know. "Someone wants to speak to you all" he said, putting a phone on speaker and handing it to us. "Good evening," said the man on the other line; he had a British accent. "My name is James Corden and I am the representative of the Royal Family." All of us looked to each other with shocked faces. Mr. Corden continued: "The Queen heard about your heroic actions and she would like to personally invite you to Buckingham palace, where you will all be honored with medals and given a special ceremony." We all gasped. Livi and Taylor jumped up and down like 5 year olds. Rylee was the first to regain composure. "Wait..." she said, grinning. "We're being honored all because we caught a serial killer?" It was a valid question. "Yes ma'am!" Mr. Corden exclaimed. "It took us quite a few years to even get onto his trail, so this is quite a big deal. You will all get a ride home, then you shall pack your bags and go to the airport at 6 a.m. The private jet will be waiting to take you to London." Now we were all jumping up and down in excitement. I realized I'd be getting little to no sleep in this timeframe, but it didn't matter. I was way too excited and I would have plenty of time to sleep on the plane. Harry took the phone from Sabrina and said "Thank you so much, sir! Have an amazing day." Mr. Corden laughed and said "Of course! I'll see you lot in about 15 hours." He then hung up. We all squealed and jumped for a couple more minutes before we parted ways, climbing into separate cars. Harry was coming to my house, since his was now a crime scene. Luckily, he was able to grab some clothes. "I bet you're happy to be going back home!" I said, turning to Harry in the car. "Yeah I am... It'll be good to see my friends. I can't wait for everyone to meet them." I recalled that he mentioned 4 other boys that he used to spend a lot of time with, though I couldn't remember their names.

When I got home, I learned that the police had already briefed my family on what happened, so I only had to introduce them to Harry, who they immediately liked. Harry and I went upstairs to my room where he helped me pack. We spent the rest of our time just talking about our lives and interests. Before I knew it, it was 5 A.M. My mom knocked on my door, poked her head in and said "There's a car waiting for you two out front. It's time to go!" Harry and I jumped up, grabbed our stuff, and ran downstairs, eager to leave. Soon enough, we were in the car and on our way to the airport. We met up with the rest of the squad and climbed onto the jet. This flight was going to be fun.
