*(Y/N) is flying out to New York to meet up and surprise Karen. It's now February 1979. Andy will join her in a few days*
(Y/N)'s POV:
Today is the day I head to New York. This is the first time I'll be visiting New York. I do have butterflies about the flight. Andy will be joining me later. He is taping a show for the Donny and Marie Valentines Day show.
I had brought Karen a goodie box to bring California to New York. Being homesick isn't the best, I should know. I feel that way now adventuring by myself across the country.
I landed in New York and immediately headed for my hotel. I knew right away the timezone difference would eventually get me. It was about 10 AM when I landed.
I called Karen from the hotel, nonchalantly to ask her what she was doing. She was on the floor above me.
"Hey Karen!" I answered enthusiastically.
"Hey (Y/N)! How are you?" Karen asked me.
"It's going well! I just wanted to say hi! Am I interrupting you?" I asked her indirectly.
"No not at all. I am eating a late breakfast actually before heading to the studio with Phil," she said with smile.
"Ok awesome, I just wanted to check in on you girl. I know you've been feeling home sick," I said with a smirk.
"That's so nice of you (Y/N). I wanna finish my breakfast so I'll call you when I get home from recording," Karen said with a munch.
"Ok Karen, take care!" I said rushed.
"Bye!" Karen said fast.
I gathered my goodie bag for Karen and got my stuff that I would need for the day at the studio with Karen.
I left the room and headed to the elevator.
I arrived at Karen's door and knocked. I was sort of nervous for her reaction.
I spoke with a nasal voice, "Uh it's the cleaning lady!"
Karen responded with a puzzled voice, "Hold on one second I'm coming!"
Karen opens the door with a rough swing.
"Hello uh OH MY GOSH WHAT (Y/N)!" Karen said in a screaming voice.
"Hey uh surprise KC!" I said handing her flowers and the goodie bag.
"What, what are you doing here? I thought you couldn't fly out?" Karen said with excitement.
"That's the point KC! A surprise!" I told Karen as she pulled me into her room.
"You are going with me to the studio today no ifs or buts about it!" Karen said walking to grab a vase for her flowers.
"I had to come see my big sister recording her solo album!" I told her happily.
"Well today I am recording the title song, Lovelines today along with If We Try. Phil also has the final mixes on My Body Keeps Changing My Mind and a few others I've recorded already. I am so excited you are here!" Karen said rambunctiously.
"I cannot wait to hear your songs KC! You've grown up so much since I last saw you," I told Karen quitely.
"Let's catch a cab to the studio!" Karen said while grabbing my arm and heading out the door.
I finally was taking a big bite of the apple I didn't know I would.
