“Why not.” She mumbled and sunk into her seat somewhat, glowering all the while. Ah some people were truly lucky. Oh, right, she had to give him the address, otherwise, how in the world would they get there. Unless he could read her mind - which was hinting at envious thoughts at the moment!“Right, sorry. About five miles from here, on the corner of Arthur Avenue and Harper, there are several restaurants there, it is close to the coast.” She could have never paid for the hotel, it was luxurious, but the museum had put her up for a few days and who was she to refuse. Everything had been paid for!

Once he started to speak, Sarah turned to his direction yet kept her hands settled on her lap, nervously turning the clutch over a few times. “There.. there was a brawl that swept through? Like a gang of sorts?” They came to a red light; Sarah stared at it for a moment before directing her attention back to Rune.
“Washington state, the Tri-Cities area.” There was nothing like this back at home. It was dull, quiet, but Seattle wasn’t too far. “I have a place in Seattle, I spend some months there.” Shifting in the seat, her hands took a grip of the seatbelt, brushing it lightly, “Have you been?”
