It had been a few days since Savannah had drifted up in the mountains, where she had finally felt free of everything, but she still had the lingering feel of finding her dad, so she had asked Han for a few days off so she could get in contact with a friend of hers back in the states. So there she sat on a Monday while Kayleigh was out with the others, her notebook and laptop on the coffee table and a coffee in hand while she waited for Marcus to video chat with her, to see if he had any new leads on her father and his potential whereabouts.

Savannah sat there impatiently as she stared at the article that was in her hand, the article she had found in a shoebox that her mother had left behind when she had died, the newspaper article was becoming worn with the amount of times Savannah had brought it out time and time again. She was just about to make herself another cup of coffee when her laptop started to sound and alert her to an incoming video call. She practically threw down her empty cup and accepted the call.

"Hello, Marcus?" Savannah asked as she waited for the video to start up.

"Yo Sav, yeah it's me. How you been?" Marcus's voice sounded through the speakers before his face came into view on the screen.

"I've been good thanks, how's things back home?" Savannah smiled as she saw the familiar face of one of her close friends from back home.

"There okay, you and Kayleigh are missed, very missed actually, race nights just haven't been the same." Marcus laughed.

"Yeah well, Kayleigh is the life and soul of the party, I'm the life and soul of the race's. How's my baby? Please tell me Rowan has been taking good care of her." Savannah chuckled as she changed the subject to her car.

"Of course he has, Hawk is better looked after than any of us real folk." Marcus laughed again as he leaned back in his chair and his face suddenly turned serious.

"Now, missing home isn't the reason you wanted me to call you, so what's the real reason?" Marcus asked as he leaned forward slightly.

"You're right, I wanted to know if you have been able to find out anything else on my potential dad." Savannah sighed as he face also turned serious.

"All I have is what I gave you, someone by the name of Toretto, a street racer around the right age was last in Tokyo, you know if I had more I would have given it to you, sorry Sav." Marcus replied with a shake of his head.

"It's fine, thanks anyway Marcus, I owe you one, so anything being happening while I'm away?" Savannah asked, that's when it hit her, a wave of homesickness, missing the only people in the world who knew her story and she didn't have to hide who she was.

"Not really, like I said things have been pretty boring around here without you, the garage has been going pretty good, business is the same we haven't had a change in business with you gone." Marcus explained.

"Anyway come on tell me all about your trip so far, you went over for more than just the whole finding your dad thing." Marcus smiled as he tried to change the subject to make her feel more at ease, seeing the tenseness in her shoulders.

"It's been good, of course I had to get myself into trouble with a member of the Yakuza on my first night here, but Kayleigh and I met some really interesting people and we now have jobs and all that, I'm in the car scene and I even drifted without losing it yesterday." Savannah smiled at all the memories that flooded her mind as she filled Marcus in on what had been happening in Japan.

"Sounds like the two of you are thriving, and why does it not surprise me that you end up in fights with the Japanese mafia.I'm proud of you Sav, we all are, but don't become a ghost only searching for one thing, go out there and be you, tell the world your story and be an inspiration to people " Marcus said after he recovered from his laughing fit.

"Thanks Marcus, send everyone my love would you, when everyone is together next let me know and me and Kayleigh will do a group call with you all." Savannah said as they said their goodbyes, after the call she sat back on the couch and looked down at the notebook by her side.

"Maybe everyone is right, maybe I should just let go, I don't want to lose myself." Savannah sighed to herself, as she relaxed on the couch, wondering what to do with herself, as she had some time off work, when her phone chimed. Savannah grabbed her phone and looked at the text.

'Come to the garage, it's important.'

Savannah looked at the text that had come from Han, with a furrowed brow, with another sigh she walked to her bedroom to get dressed out of her pj shorts, and to grab her wallet and keys. It wasn't long before she was in a taxi and she was on her way to the garage.

"Is she coming?" Kayleigh asked Han who checked his phone for the fifth time since he had sent Savannah the text.

"I don't know, she hasn't replied, it says she has seen it." Han sighed as he put his phone back in the pocket of his jeans and sat down with the rest of the group.

"She could be asleep, I told you to let me ring her." Kayleigh huffed as she threw herself down into one of the comfy chairs.

"You can barely keep your excitement out your voice now, Savannah would know something is up if you were to talk to her." Sean laughed as he looked over at Kayleigh who just poked her tongue out at him.

"A taxi has just pulled up outside." Twinkie announced from his perch where he could see the street out front.

"It's her, she's here." He shouted just as excited as Kayleigh, before jumping down and running over to the others and taking a seat, just as Savannah walked in, she looked up at the overhang and where her friends were all sat talking.

"Some emergency this is." Savannah called up to them as she headed for the stairs.

"I said it was important not an emergency." Han smirked at her, she returned his smirk with a glare.

"Important, emergency it's all the same thing, now what was soooo IMPORTANT that I had to come in on my day off?" Savannah sighed as she reached the chair that Han was sat in and perched on the arm looking down at him, ignoring everyone else.

"Couldn't we have just wanted to spend some time with our friend?" Han asked teasingly.

"Okay that's it I'm out of here." Savannah said as she stood. Han reached out and grabbed her wrist causing her to look at him dead in the eye, for an intense moment; it caught Han off guard at how cold and deadly Savannah's eyes looked, Kayleigh held her breath as she realised what had just happened.

"I have something for you, that's why it's important." Han said gently not breaking eye contact, showing Savannah he wasn't scared of the emotional scars that had been left on her thanks to her past. It was just the two of them, everyone else fell away as they kept eye contact neither of them backing down. He watched as the coldness melted away and deadly look in Savannah's eyes fell, and her whole body relaxed. He slid his hand from her wrist and into her open hand as he laced his fingers in between hers.

"Come on." Han said softly as he stood up and led Savannah down the stairs and out the back to where he parked the RX-7. Kayleigh watched them go and shook her head to everyone else as they tried to follow.

"Let them have a moment, they need it." She said almost in a whisper as Savannah and Han disappeared out of view.
