Pieces of Dreams (sequel to TWST)

Chapter 11

It was a 20 minute ride to the hotel which meant it was 20 minutes of sitting in the car with wet clothes. By the time they arrived at the hotel, Katia's teeth were chattering. Mal went to get the hotel key and told us the boys were waiting for us there.

"Looks like we're back in the same room." Andrew said.

"I got you two beds this time." Mal said having overheard Andrew. "Sorry about before."

"Oh...no problem." Katia replied and then smiled at Andrew.

"Your bags should be here shortly..." Neil said walking up to them.

"We'll be here to pick you up tomorrow morning."

"Are you not coming up?" Katia asked.

"We have to get out of these wet clothes...I'd recommend you do the same."

"Will do." Andrew replied as Neil and Mal headed back out.

Andrew and Katia walked up to their room and found the boys sprawled on the two beds, watching television.

"What happened to you?" John asked as he sat up at looked at them.

"The reason we look like drowned rats is because you guys left with all the umbrellas..."

All four looked at each other.

"Oops..." George finally said.

"Sorry guys...we had no idea." Ringo replied.

"You should get out of those wet clothes." John winked at Kat.

Katia rolled her eyes at him. "We're just waiting for our bags to show up...they stayed on the plane. Neil said someone should be bringing them soon."

They all talked for about ten minutes before there was a knock on the door with their luggage.

"We'll let you guys get settled in." Paul said as he started heading out with the others following.

"Yeah...we'll be here to pick you up tomorrow....I told Maureen that I wanted her to meet you two. So she wanted to have you over for lunch." Ringo smiled.

"I'd love that." Katia replied before saying goodbye to all of them.

As soon as they were gone, Katia jumped into the shower. Despite wanting to take a long hot shower, she knew Andrew was waiting too, so she quickly showered and changed into her pajamas.

"Your turn." she said as came out drying her hair with the towel.

"Great." Andrew said as he headed to the bathroom.

Katia was planning to blow dry her hair after Andrew got out of the shower, but as she waited, she fell asleep. She faintly heard Andrew come out of the shower and he coached her to get under the covers.

"Kat...Paul just called. They're coming in a half hour." Andrew said to Katia trying to wake her up.

"Andrew...I don't feel very well." she mumbled.

Andrew leaned over and put his hand on her forehead. "Shit... I think you may have a fever, Kat."

Katia managed to open her eyes. "I feel like shit is what I feel like right now."

"Let me call Neil and let him know. Where's the phone number he gave you?"

"It's in my purse." Katia replied.

Katia closed her eyes until she heard Andrew trying to wake her up again.

"Kat...there's a nurse here to see you. Her name is Carol."

Katia opened her eyes to see a nurse standing next to her bed.
