Pieces of Dreams (sequel to TWST)

Chapter 6

A little past 7am, Mal phoned Katia and Andrew's room to let them know he was downstairs waiting for them at the lobby. He led them to a limousine that was waiting for them outside of the hotel. When they opened the door, they found all four Beatles inside.

"Hi...I didn't realize you guys were coming. I thought we were meeting you at the airport."

"Change of plans, love." Ringo replied.

There was no big talk or anything on the way to the airport. As we approached the airport, however, a crowd drew near. The boys would be getting into another car that would take them directly to the airplane. "Brian will meet you guys on the plane. " Neil said to them; all four of them nodded.

"You stay close to me." Neil said referring to Andrew and Katia once the boys were in the other car.

Getting to the plane, even with Neil, proved to be a struggle. Once they were out of the car, both Andrew and Katia got stopped and pushed back into the crowd of fans that were being blocked by the police. Luckily Neil noticed their absence and went looking for them. They eventually found each other and finally made it to the plane.

When they got to the plane, the guys were already seated and were serving themselves drinks.

"Don't you think it's a little early for this?" Katia asked

"Care for one?" he grinned.

"Please." she smiled.

"Just keep this one. I'll pour myself another." he said handing her his drink.

"Thank you."

"What's with the drink?" Andrew inquired.

"Too early?"she replied.

"I'd say a tad bit early, yes." Andrew responded as he sat next to her and questioned her with his eyes.

"It got a bit stressful back there...that's all." Katia said taking a sip of the drink. She felt the burn of it go down her throat and realized Andrew may have been right. It was too early to be drinking on an empty stomach. She set the drink down and didn't touch it again.

The plane ride to the Bahamas went quite fast for Katia. Waking up only for meals, she slept for most of the trip. They arrived at the Bahamas in the early evening and were picked up at the airport. They would be staying at the Balmoral Club, near Cable Beach. When they arrived at the hotel, they were informed that the rest of the cast had arrived a few days earlier. There was a dinner party planned for everyone that night around 9 o'clock. The club had been reserved entirely for the cast and staff of the film, so they would have a bit more privacy and be a bit more shielded from any fans.

Shortly after their arrival, Mal began handing out room keys. Katia, who was sitting in the lobby, watched as Paul talked to Mal about something when Mal handed him his key. After their short conversation, Mal quickly went back to the reception desk and after a few minutes returned to handing out keys.

"Kat...here's your key. You'll be sharing a room with Eleanor Bron. She's one of the main characters of the movie. She's in room 244."

"Oh...uhh...thank you." Katia said taking the key. As he was walking away, Katia called him back. "Is there a reason why I won't be staying in the same room as Andrew?" she questioned a bit surprise they had separated them.

"Oh...uhhh....well..." he stumbled with his words. "...we're a bit short on rooms...and you and Eleanor are one of the few females...you understand."

"So who will Andrew be sharing a room with?"
