Chapter Fifteen

When Mrs. McGill called out that we were here, I looked at Alan. Honestly, I thought he would a) pass out or b) refuse to leave the safety of his seat belt. However, he took a deep breath and climbed out. He followed all of us to the front door. Claudia rang the bell and Watson Brewer answered. He smiled when he saw us.

"Hello, girls."

"Hi, Mr. Brewer." I said. "We're here to visit Kristy."

"Well, I'm sure she'll appreciate it. You know the way, Mary Anne."

Watson opened the door for us and Alan ducked into the middle of the group. Either Watson didn't see Alan or he did but chose not to say anything. At any rate, we all made it up the stairs.

"Wait here." I told Alan as Stacey knocked on Kristy's closed door.

"Come in." We heard Kristy call and Alan went a shade paler at the sound of her voice. Claudia opened the door and we all piled in, closing the door, leaving Alan alone in the hallway.

"Surprise!" We all called out. Kristy smiled.

"You guys!" She said, sitting up.

"How're you feeling?" I asked as we all piled onto her Queen Size bed.

"I've been better." She said with a smile.

"I imagine. You look awful." Claudia said and Kristy threw a pillow at her. In Claudia's defense, Kristy looked about the same as Logan had a week ago.

"Well, we'd better make you look a little nicer." Stacey said, reaching into her purse and pulling out a brush.

"Why?" Kristy asked, suspiciously.

"Because Alan Gray is waiting outside." Stacey said as she started brushing Kristy's tangled hair.

"Alan Gray?!" Kristy squeaked.

"Yes, Alan Gray." Claudia said, in an "as a matter-of-fact" voice.

"He was worried about you, Kristy." I said. Her face softened.

"Really?"

I nodded, smiling.

"There. That's better." Stacey said. She had pulled Kristy's long hair into a smooth pony-tail.

"Well, we'd better go get Alan. We can't stay too long." Dawn said. We all got off her bed.

"Wait! Do I have any sleep in my eyes?" she asked.
"No. You're fine." I told her. I went to the door and opened it. I gestured for Alan to come in.

"We'll wait outside." I said, closing the door, leaving Alan and Kristy alone. We heard Alan say in a shaky voice,

"Hi, Kristy."

As hard as we tried, we couldn't hear anything through Kristy's door. I don't think I've ever heard the BSC be that quiet. And I'm sure we must've looked quite silly with all our ears pressed against the door. Luckily, one of us heard Alan say good bye and we all managed to straighten up before Alan opened the door. However, I'm sure we were all blushing. Alan was, too.

"Kristy wants to see you again, Mary Anne." Alan told me.

"Kay."

I went back into Kristy's bedroom and closed the door.

"So, how was it?" I asked, smiling.

"It was nice."

"Nice?"

"Yeah, nice." Kristy was smiling.

"He feels so bad. He thinks I got sick because I went to see him."

"He's probably right." I couldn't help but say.

"I guess. But I don't care. He likes me, Mary Anne!" she almost squealed.

"I'm happy for you Kristy."

Kristy smiled and yawned.

"Well, we'd better get going."

"I understand." Kristy said, sleepily. I walked over and tucked Kristy in.

"I hope you feel better soon." I said as I walked towards the door again.

"Thanks. And thanks for coming, Mary Anne."

"No problem."

"I guess the BSC can get through anything." Kristy said, already dozing off.

"I'm sure of it, Kristy."

With that, I opened the door and together, Alan and the BSC left to go home.
