As Kayleigh made nice with Neela and the rest of the group chatted amongst themselves. Savannah excused herself and went outside for some fresh air. Savannah was so absorbed in her thoughts admiring the RX-7 that she hadn't noticed Han standing beside her.

"So what do you drive?" He asked leaning up against the wall, popping a peanut into his mouth.

"Back home I have a Subaru." Savannah replied as a twinge of homesickness twisted her gut.

"So the next question is do you race?" Han smirked as Savannah looked at him with a gleam in her eyes.

"Yes I race, but it's more complicated than that." Savannah said cryptically, Han raised an eyebrow, waiting for her to explain.

"I've just meet you, I'm not telling you my whole sorry ass story." Savannah laughed as she turned back to the RX-7.

"I didn't ask for your story, just weather you race." Han chuckled. Savannah looked back at him,

"What about you? Do you race?" She asked,

"Only when it's important enough." Han replied turning his attention back to his car.

"You're lucky to have a car like that." Savannah stated when Kayleigh's head poked around the door.

"Oi, you two, will you be socialising any time soon?" Kayleigh giggled before heading back inside.

"I guess duty calls." Savannah sighed as she kicked off the wall she was leaning against.

"Just one more question. How did you know she's mine?" Han asked nodding towards the RX-7, Savannah gave a knowing smile.

"Because you look at her the same way I look at my Hawk." Savannah replied before leaving Han outside and returning to her seat next to Twinkie. Han was left outside thinking about his small conversation with Savannah. He shook the thoughts from his mind and went to rejoin the group.

"So what do you two do back home?" Neela asked, once Savannah was re-seated, Neela had moved from the booth behind to sit next to Twinkie so Savannah took the seat next to Kayleigh.

"Well, Savannah owns her own garage and does mechanics as well as racing; I'm the secretary for the garage and do some blogging on the side, fashion and makeup." Kayleigh explained with a smile, Savannah scoffed at her friends comment, causing her best friend to throw daggers by looking at her.

"Something to add?" Kayleigh asked innocently, causing Savannah to grin.

"Okay by secretary she really means sitting on her ass looking up the latest fashion and make up tips, while getting paid for it. And by blogger she mean sitting in front of her laptop complaining that she has writers block." Savannah laughed.

"Okay, I'll admit that is mostly true." Kayleigh followed in Savannah's laughter.

"How are you two even friends?" Reiko giggled at the two girls.

"Yeah, you two are like polar opposites." Sean chuckled; Savannah and Kayleigh looked at each other before bursting out into laughter.

"We are, as you can tell I'm the outgoing, girly, party animal and Savvy is the boyish, hot tempered, reckless racer." Kayleigh divulged.

"Hey, I know how to party just as much as you; I just prefer cars to people." Savannah defended her life choices.

"No you prefer the things that will more than likely get you killed, like fighting when drunk, taking stupid risks when racing, you know we all worry about you." Kayleigh put forward, her remark caused Savannah to give a devilish grin and shrug.

"Yeah you guys would love me to life a boring life wouldn't you?" Savannah said with a roll of her eyes, before the two girls could continue their discussion on Savannah's life Neela grabbed a napkin and pulled out a pen from her bag.

"Here is my number, we should hang out some time, don't get me wrong I love spending time with these guys but it would be nice to have another girl around." Neela smiled passing the napkin over to Kayleigh.

"Racer huh? What do you drive?" Sean asked Savannah, Savannah smiled and relaxed slightly, happy that the subject of racing came up, something she was comfortable with.

"A 2006 Subaru Impreza WRX STI, Hawkeye." Savannah beamed with pride. She had worked tirelessly to get that car into the condition it was in, the tears she had cried when she thought it was never going to work and she had spent all that money for nothing.

"Savannah bought that car for 100 dollars; the guy was going to send it to the junkyard, so Savvy haggled with him eventually she got her hands on it." Kayleigh added.

"My blood sweat and tears went into that car, literally." Savannah chuckled.

"And as for racing they don't call her queen of the streets for nothing. Should check out the YouTube channel one of our close friends made for her. All of her races are on there." Kayleigh gushed at her friends achievements. Kayleigh's statement caused Savannah to blush slightly which in turn caused everyone to look at her and snigger.

"You should come to tonight's race meeting." Sean said with a smile, Savannah's face instantly lit up.

"Give me a time and a place and I'll be there." Savannah beamed, Han tossed a piece of paper to Savannah, she caught it with one hand and opened it up, and it had an address and a time written on it.

"I'll be there." Savannah smiled at Han.

"Well, we will see you there; tell Toshi that you're there to see me." Han said as he stood from his seat and stretched, he turned his attention to the teenagers.

"Well, come on you bunch of freeloaders we have work to do." Han ordered as he headed towards his car, the group of teens said their goodbyes and followed after Han each getting into a car of their own, except for Neela who rode in the Evo with Sean and Reiko who rode with Earl, leaving Kayleigh and Savannah alone in the restaurant.

"See making friends is easy when you talk to people." Kayleigh laughed as she nudged Savannah in the ribs.

"Yeah, whatever, come on you wanted to go shopping didn't you; we still have a few hours." Savannah said as she left the booth to go pay for their meal, when Savannah asked for the bill she was surprised when the waitress told her that Han had already taken care of it.

As she made her way back to Kayleigh her mind wondered to Han, she found him somewhat alluring, he seemed to enjoy the company of others but also the silence.

"Earth to Savannah."Kayleigh called as Savannah came out of her trance.

"Sorry, oh it seems like you have more spending money, apparently Han took care of the bill for us." Savannah revealed to her friend.

"So that's where your mind wondered too." Kayleigh mocked.

"Oh shut up, come on lets go." Savannah sighed as she headed towards the door.

The girl's small shopping trip had turned into a shopping spree; Savannah was just please she had saved up the extra money. With the money she had won on the extra races she had partaken in, it meant that the girls could live quite comfortably for at least six months without having to worry about money.

Along with the masses amount of clothes that Kayleigh had splurged on, Savannah had managed to grab a few bits for the apartment. They finally got home and dumped all the shopping down before collapsing down on the couch.

"Well we still have a while before we have to go, so I am going to have a shower and get ready." Kayleigh announced, grabbing her bags and heading off into her room.

Savannah let out a content sigh as she led down on the sofa and closed her eyes; the last god knows how many hours had been a complete blur, down to the excitement and realisation of actually making it to Japan.
