Kevin was talking to Brian and Angel when Rachel woke up the next day. Kevin heard her move and looked over.
"Hey there sleepy head!" He laughed.
"Hey." She said groggily. "What time is it?" She asked.
"Almost 3 in the afternoon." Kevin stated.
"Wow I slept that long?" She said in shock. She had gone to bed at about 8 the night before. Kevin smiled and walked over to her with Brian and Angel close behind.
"Hi, I'm Brian." Brian introduced himself. She chuckled softly. "What?" he asked confused.
"Brian she knows. We were famous once ya know?" Kevin laughed. Brian blushed.
"It is ok Brian. I'm Rachel." She said smiling and shook his hand.
"I'm Angel." She said and Rachel shook her hand too.
"Nice to meet you both." Rachel said then asked, "How are AJ and Nick?"
"Nick is awake now. The doctor is looking at him now. AJ is doing better. Once the doctor is done we can go in and see them." Kevin said. Rachel's stomach growled.
"I say we get something to eat. I'm hungry." Rachel said laughing. The other three agreed since they had missed lunch. They got some food and talked about different things. Rachel got caught up on how the other 4 were found and what situation they were in and Rachel filled them in on what was going on in the outside world.
"Yesterday I was talking with some others about how the people on Long Island are forming an army and are trying to take control back as soon as their army is big enough. I hope that it can be pulled off but the Talaban has control of basically our whole country." Rachel said and took a bite of her sandwich. The other three nodded and continued to talk about that and some other things that weren't as serious.
"Ok so who was your favorite?" Brian asked laughing. Kevin had brought up that Rachel had been a fan of the Backstreet Boys and now Brian wanted to know which one she had liked the most. Rachel blushed.
"I liked you all." She said trying to get out of it. Brian laughed.
"All our fans had a fave. C'mon." He said smiling.
"Brian don't force her." Angel laughed poking Brian.
"I can tell you and Rachel didn't even tell me." Kevin laughed. Rachel looked at him.
"Ok smarty pants who was my favorite?" She taunted.
"Nick. Nick is your favorite." He said then smiled. Rachel blushed wondering how he knew since she never told him. Brian and Angel looked at her waiting for and answer.
"No comment." Rachel said still blushing. They all knew her crush. Even after the long 3 years she still had a crush on him.
"It is Nick!" Brian laughed.
"Yep she's blushing!" Angel laughed as well. Rachel started laughing too. All of them needed the laugh. Every one of them went through so much that it felt good to be somewhat normal. They finished their meal and went in to see how the other two were doing.
