Reaching for it, then pulling his hand back as if it would bite him, Drake just stared at the phone in Josh's hand.

"Take it, Drake. Call a cab..."

"I can't..."

"You lied about the apartment, didn't you?"

"No! I just... I'm..."

"You're afraid to leave home, aren't you?"

Grabbing the phone, Drake made the call to Spin City letting them know he was on his way before throwing it across the room, "We'll just share, okay?"

The sound of them bounding down the stairs, their suit cases banging against the walls sent Audrey to her feet.

"What are you two doing?! What are you doing?! What's going on?!" She cried.

"What's it look like," Josh said, eying his father, "He told us to go. We're going."

"Walter, do something!"

Walter stood firm, arms crossed and returned Josh's glare, "No."

"Walter?!Please!"

"Mom... I'm sorry," Drake said, "We never wanted to hurt you or anyone. We just... it just happened..."

"I will never acce-... Drake," She said softly, "And I will never accept you two just leaving either..."

After a few moments of uncomfortable silence, save for their mother's sobbing, Josh opened the door just in time for the cab to pull up.

"Ready, Drake?"

"Sorry, Mom... sorry..." Drake said, picking up his suit case and walking out the door with Josh, Megan quickly following them.

"They will get over it," She assured, "They'll be so busy with me..." She joked, trying to lighten the mood while at the same time wiping away a stray tear.

"You try and behave, huh?" Josh quipped.

"Keep in touch?"

"'Course, 'Demon'." Drake chuckled, getting into the cab.

Josh smiled and nodded before sliding into the seat next to Drake.

After giving the order to go, the cab pulled away leaving Megan standing alone at the curb fighting back tears when Audrey and Walter slowly emerged from the house.

"Come on in, sweat heart." Audrey called to her.

She marched passed them, mumbling under her breath not to call her 'sweet heart' and 'hope you're happy'.

"So this is it, man," Drake said, helping Josh with his suit cases outside of the airport, "You're a college man now and I'm... I'm ganna be a rock star." He laughed at his own corniness.

"Yeah... this is it." Josh said, staring at his suit cases.

"Hey, I have something for you," Drake reached into his back pocket and pulled out a CD, "I wrote this for you... the song on it..."

"Thanks, Drake. I'll listen to it while I'm waiting for my plane..."

"Your plane isn't going to be here for another fourteen hours. I really wish you would have..."

"What? Stayed home? Drake, I have never in my life seen my dad so... I-I don't even know what to call it 'cause I've never seen him this way!"

"I'm sorry... you know, if it helps, he handled it a lot better than myfather would have."

"Honestly, that doesn't make me feel better..."

"Sorry... look, the meter is still running..."

"Right... so, this is good bye..."

"No! I mean, we'll be busy with our own things but..."

Tired of putting off the inevitable, Josh grabbed Drake by the shoulders and pulled him in for a deep, long kiss, "Something to remember me by."

Drake couldn't help the smile spreading from ear to ear.

Helping Drake back into the cab, Josh leaned in for one last kiss before knocking on the roof of the cab and watching it pull away.

"Good bye, Drake."

After fighting with security, Josh set up camp at the terminal.

Using his carry on as a pillow, he settled back to listen to the CD before pulling out a book he had been trying to finish for months.

"Hey, you!" Startling him just as he was about to push play.

"Hey, Lucy! Where are you headed?"

"Reno. Family. The usual fun stuff. How about you?"

"Walla Walla." He couldn't help laughing every time he said it, "School."

"Cool, but the plane doesn't leave till tomorr-"

"I know."

"Something happen?"

Josh wasn't sure what compelled him. Before he knew what was happening, he was opening up to her.

Honestly, after Michelle – the "smart girl" - Lucy was one of his favorites.

"Wow. So you guys break up? Again?"

"Not as far as he knows..."

"Josh, that's terrible!" She scolded, giving him a good punch on the arm.

"Uh,Ow! And I know! I just... he's going to have enough to worry about..."

"Well, you look like you were about to get comfortable, so I'll ju-"

"Wait! When does your plane leave?"

"Not for another four hours. With so many of us my parents like to get here early..."

"I-I really wasn't doing anything important..."

"You want some company?"

"Y-yeah... I was actually just about to play this CD Drake gave me. Want to hear it?"

"Sure."

Handing her one of the ear pieces, he hit the play button, "He said he wrote this song for me."

"That's coo-... very familiar..."

"Yeah... it's one of his older ones... "Down W-"... h-he wrote this barely a year after our parents married."

You were so clever,
You kept it together today,
By the way, I'll no longer ignore you,
I wanted to show you again, I'm your friend,
Sometimes we just pretend.
And all I can say is you save me,
Changed all the things that have made me,
Entertaining,
Thoughts are raining,
Down We Fall,
It's all okay,
When I say,
You and I...
