The Baby Sitters Club
*The Last Get Together*
A/N- This takes place long after the books ended.
Kristy Thomas, Claudia Kishi, Mary Anne Spier, Stacey McGill, Dawn Schafer, Abby Stevenson, Anna Stevenson, Shannon Kilbourne, and Logan Bruno are all sitting in the living room of Kristy's house. Tomorrow they are graduating from high school. It seems like just yesterday Kristy started the BSC. Mary Anne lifts herself off the floor with her arms and sits on the couch next to Kristy and Dawn.
"I can't believe tomorrow we graduate from SHS." Mary Anne says.
"It doesn't seem possible." Abby says.
"Yeah, it feels like we've only been here a day or so; and we've been here 5 years Abby." Anna says. Anna is Abby's quiet twin sister.
"Remember the fun we used to have in middle school when we first started the BSC?" Claudia asks them. Everybody sighs thinking about their middle school days.
"I am sad thinking that I won't be graduating from the same school, as you are." Shannon says. Shannon Kilbourne goes to SDS, Stoneybrook Day School; it's a private school in Stoneybrook, Connecticut. All 3 of the Kilbourne girls attend it.
"It's okay Shannon; I'm just sorry that they put our graduations on the same day so we can't attend yours." Stacey says laying her head on Shannon's shoulder. Shannon looks down at her and smiles.
"I can't believe that we are all going to school in different places. I am going to miss all of you." Claudia says.
"Our baby sitting charges." Dawn says.
"Like Charlotte Johanssen." Stacey pipes up.
"The Barretts." Abby says.
"The Pike kids." Mary Anne replies.
"Rosie Wilder." Kristy says.
"Jackie Rodowsky." Claudia says, when she says that all the BSC members laugh.
"Nina and Eleanor Marshall." Logan says.
"It's going to be hard, but we are going to have to go." Stacey says.
"Jamie and Lucy Newton." Kristy says with a sigh. Just then, Elizabeth Brewer enters the living room.
"I am sorry to interrupt, but Logan's mother just called and asked that he be home soon." Elizabeth says.
"I better go then." Logan says as he stands up.
"Bye Logan." Mary Anne says as she stands up next to him and kisses his cheek.
"Oo-oh." The other girls say. Logan blushes and then walks out of the house.
"So where are you going to college, Shannon?" Stacey asks Shannon.
"Well I want to go to Northeastern up in Massachusetts; ever heard of it?" Shannon asks.
"Shannon! That's the most prestigious school in the country!" Mary Anne says pushing her glasses back up off her nose. This type of talk continues throughout the evening. Then about 11:30 p.m. Kristy's little step sister Karen Brewer enters the living room.
"Karen! What are you still doing up?" Kristy asks her surprised that her 12 year old sister is still awake.
"Dad and Elizabeth said that I could stay up as long as I stayed out of your way, but I just had to come downstairs, and tell you that I would miss you guys. You have been my step sister for 6 years Kristy, and you've been a club all that time; I am going to miss all of you." Karen says hugging Kristy.
"Ah." All the girls say.
"We will come home Karen. We will come see you." Mary Anne says hugging her. Karen just starts tearing up as she goes around the room and hugs all the girls, even Anna. After that she leaves the living room.
"She's a sweet girl, Kristy." Anna says. Kristy sighs.
"I know she is." Kristy says. Then the girls get their sleeping bags together on the floor, and go to sleep because they have to get up early the next morning.
