A month later...
Rosie, Nicholas, and Zack were on a lunch break while discussing about the next step in preparing for their new life. The latter, along with the Geordie twins, was happy for his friends after they were able to find a new house and address. Zack said, "So, are we gonna have some kind of special celebration after your graduation ceremony?" Rosie replied, "You bet we will! Tomorrow, Nicholas, the Beatles, and I will be going to Thorpe Park in Surrey to reserve an overnight stay in one of the cabins." Nicholas added, "We'll also explore the park itself and try out some rides." Zack remarked, "Ooh, a party at an amusement park! That sounds super exciting!" Rosie said, "Indeed, it does! This will be a fitting conclusion to our college years as well." Nicholas nodded in agreement. Lunch break soon came to an end, and the trio returned upstairs for the remainder of today's class.

The group found a burger joint just across the campus and decided to have dinner there. After getting their table and orders, Nicholas placed a hand on Rosie's shoulder and said, "I'd like to thank you again for forgiving me, love. That really means a lot." Rosie replied, "You're very welcome, buddy. You know, if there's anything good which came out from that accident, it's the fact that it just brought us even closer." Nicholas remarked, "You got that right, darling! It makes me happy, too." Rosie responded, "Indeed! And George, I also want to thank you for your kindness and for helping us reconcile." He smiled and replied, "It was me great pleasure, Rosie. What are mates for?" Scruffy added, "Ditto!" The burgers and drinks arrived ten minutes later, and they all started eating.

Meanwhile, Nicholas had been sitting in one of the benches at Regent's Park. As he did some people-watching, he started to feel lonely. He finally decided that enough was enough and said, "It's no fun being alone here. Oh, well. I might as well go back to the dorm now. I miss Rosie, too." But before he could start walking, there was a sudden downpour! Nicholas exclaimed, "Shucks! I don't even have an umbrella. How can I navigate my way through this rain?" Nevertheless, he tried to do so. Unfortunately, the ground became so soggy that he slipped and fell towards a mud-filled ditch just near the exit! "Ow! My ankle!", groaned Nicholas as he got out of the ditch. The pain was very intense that he fainted in the grass, and thus, his world went black.

Nicholas wasn't able to sleep peacefully that night. He and Rosie still didn't talk with each other after returning to their dorm, and this made the Geordie twins and Zack alarmed when George told them about what happened earlier. He stared at his best friend, who was sleeping with Zack, and began to feel guilty about the incident. Nicholas sighed sadly and thought, "I totally blew it. We shouldn't have had that argument in the first place. What if Rosie doesn't love me anymore? Maybe I should just leave..." A tear streamed down his eye as he finally slept. He then woke up at sunrise, had a quick breakfast, changed his clothes, and left a note on the table before heading for the door. Nicholas looked at the bedroom once again and said with heavy sorrow, "Goodbye, Rosie. I hope you can still forgive me." And so, he ran away.

Shortly after ordering their food, Stuart congratulated his friends on their concert. He said, "This whole tour has gone so smoothly! I'm very impressed, mates!" John replied, "Indeed, it has! We're happy about that, too." Ringo added, "It was also nice knowing you and your parents, Stuart. We hope to have you as our driver again for any new events in the future." Stuart replied, "As a matter of fact, you can! Here, I'll give you one of my calling cards." He then took a card out of his jacket pocket and gave it to Rosie. She said, "Thanks, Stu! We really appreciate how hospitable you are." He gave her a hug and responded, "It was my great pleasure, love! I'm always happy to help." The others were all smiles. Soon, the food arrived, and everyone started to dig in.

Everyone spent the rest of the afternoon exploring their concert venue and taking their last batch of photos and videos for the tour. They even walked all the way to Marble Arch. As they relaxed in the grass, Stuart said, "I'd like to meet and talk with your other friends the next time we see each other again." Rosie replied, "Oh, of course! I know they'll be happy to meet you, too." Nicholas added, "That's right, darling." "Splendid, mates!", responded Stuart with a smile. The group then continued to have some more fun conversations while sharing a good laugh in between.

After a nearly four-hour journey, the Beatles, Rosie, and Nicholas made it back to London for the final concert of their nationwide tour. During the ride, John had decided that Hyde Park would be the concert's perfect spot. Upon stopping there, Rosie remarked, "Yep. This place is just right for us!" John winked and replied, "It certainly is, love." The others thought so, too. They soon proceeded to set their instruments up for the last time. Afterwards, they went to have lunch with Stuart and his parents joining them.
