Dilemma

14

It was already public knowledge that Keith and I were over. I hadn't talked to him since, but I didn't really get the chance either, since I started filming Help! Thankfully, I had so many people that listened to me and helped me cheer up. Two of those people were Paul and George. George also broke up with Pattie and so we often talked for hours and related to each other. This help us build an emotional bond and so we became close. 

"Cigarette?" George asked me. "Yes, please!" I eagerly took the cigar and he lit it up for me. "I've got to tell you something Ally,"

"What's up?" I got up and looked for my script to rehearse some lines. "I wrote a song about you..." George timidly said.

"Oh, cool! Is it going to be in the film?" I became intrigued and turned around to face him once i found the script.

"Yeah, it's actually gonna be in the next scene..."

"Oh, no! I won't be with you guys in that scene. But I think I can still here it from where I will be," I was actually excited to hear the song. No one had ever written a song about me....

"I hope you didn't say anything bad," I pushed his shoulder playfully.

"I didn't. I promise!" He let out his beautiful laugh of his and pushed me back. 

"Guys, we're starting in five!" Ringo told us and we quickly left the waiting room.

"I hope you like it!" George exclaimed happily before some woman comed his hair. 

"I'm sure I will!" I smiled back at him and run towards where I was supposed to be. Then just as Ringo said... music began to play in the next 5 minutes. I made sure I listened to the lyrics closely, especially since it was supposedly about me. 

"You don't realize how much I need you

Love you all the time

And never leave you

Please come on back to me
I'm lonely as can be
I need youSaid you had a thing or two to tell me
How was I to know
You would upset me?
I didn't realize
As I looked in your eyes
You told me
Oh yes, you told me you don't want my lovin' anymore
That's when it hurt me and feeling like this
I just can't go on anymorePlease remember how I feel about you
I could never really live without you
So, come on back and see
Just what you mean to me
I need you
But when you told me, you don't want my lovin' anymore
That's when it hurt me and feeling like this
I just can't go on anymore

Please remember how I feel about you
I could never really live without you
So, come on back and see
Just what you mean to me
I need you, I need you, I need you..."

As I heard the lyrics, I instantly remembered the time we were completely alone in a hotel in France, months ago. When we almost kissed, but I stopped him because I was with Keith. Was he referring to that time? Does he still feel this way about me?

When they finished, I ran towards Paul. He was surprised.

"You liked the song?" Paul asked, knowing exactly what I just discovered. "Does George still feel this way?" I desperately needed the answer. 

"Oh, I thought you knew! He broke up with Pattie, because of you, silly!" Paul was having a big laugh out of all of this.

"What?! Imposible! You're joking!" I didn't know whether to take him seriously or not. "I swear I'm telling the truth! Scouts honor!" Paul tried to stop from laughing. 

"Where's Ally?" I could hear Brian from the distance.

"I'm here! I'm here!" I followed him.

"Oh, there you are! I just realized you won't have to be shooting anything else, until we go to the Bahamas! So you can go, if you'd like," 

"I see. Well, I actually like being here. So, could I stay just a little bit longer?" I ultimately wanted to stay for the boys. I thought it was quite fun being around them. 

"Maybe I can help out with the production team? Or the hair and make-up department?" I suggested ideas, so he would let me stay.

"Sounds great! Do whatever you want. I'll be with the director if you need anything," Brian gave me a pat on the back and returned to sit on the chair next to the director.  I ran inside and looked for George, but found John instead.

"John, have you seen George?" I asked him, while continuing to search for him with my eyes.

"Give us a kiss!" John ignored me and put his cheek in fornt of my lips. I kissed him. "Good. George is down the hall. You know him, he's probably eating," 

"You're right!" I gave him another kiss on the cheek and went directly to the lunch room. But before I entered, I realized I didn't know what I was going to tell him. I should keep it casual and if the topic seems to resurface and then let it.

When I finally decided to walk in, I found George all alone munching on some type of pastry. He was sitting down on a table for two, reading the newspaper.

"Hey George!" I sat down in front of him. He put the newspaper down and I couldn't tell if he was happy to see me or not. 

"I heard the song..." I started. "It was very lovely!" I kept on trying to initiate a conversation but he didn't seem like he was interested until...

"Ally, I don't want to force things with you or go to fast. We've both split from our former love interests so soon after all... I just needed you to know how I have felt, since the day we kissed. I thought I could ignore it and stay with Pattie. But you have been in the back of my mind all of the time and I have always wondered how we would be together..." George began to express his true feelings towards me and i'll admit I was flattered. His words seemed way too familiar.. I also often wondered how I would feel being romantically involved with him.

"But, I've learned from our hour-long conversations that you might not be ready yet. I'll be waiting here for you as long as you'd like. Common give this silly guy a chance!" He lightened up. I giggled and my cheeks turned red. He reached out and held my hand on top of the table.

"George, in those hour-long conversations I've learned so much about you in what seems like such little time. We have so much in common and I feel like we connect in such a deep level. And don't get me wrong I have only dreamt about being with you..." I answered but was interrupted by him, "Look, I'm just warning you. I'm not taking no for an asnwer. I will not give up on you. Let's try and see how it goes, and if it doesn't work, we will stay as good friends. Ally, I'm going to wait for you for as long as you need me to," He stared deeply into my eyes and I felt his sincerity through his voice. 

"Are you sure? I mean, I don't really see how you could like the idea of being with someone like me. I still have to resolve things with Keith, I mean I know you guys and The Stones are friends. Don't you think it would be awkward?" I began to spit my thoughts out. 

"Look, Ally why do you think so little of yourself? You are wonderful and you are funny, smart, beautiful, I mean do I have to go on? This is why I need you. Remember when talked for days about our love for learning. Well, I honestly cannot wait to love you and find more about you. You inspire me to be the best version of myself," He then started to laugh as he thought he was beeing to corny.

"Gosh, so cheesy!" I laughed with him.

"Well, George. You're being to kind. I mean you are...you're George Harrison for God's sake! Do I need to say more?" 

"Look, how about this. I promise you that by the time we arrive to the Bahamas for the movie. We will go with the flow, and if something happens, then something happens. If not, then we remain friends. Deal?" I proposed.

"Deal!" 

========================================================

After we wrapped up filming for the day, I returned to my flat. As soon as  I opened the door I noticed the purple guitar in the entrance. What is this doing here?
