The clicking will be the solenoid on the starter engaging and disengaging as the battery can no longer provide enough current to turn the starter.

If all was well upto this point and the battery is 4 years or older, then just replace the battery. The battery can suddenly fail, happened on an old car of mine, I drove somewhere with no problem, got out and 10mins later the car was completely dead.
