I Will • The Beatles [Book 3]

CHAPTER 6

[3 weeks later]

"Would you like another cup of tea?" John asked me pointing to the teapot on the table.

"No, thanks," I replied.

"Perhaps a biscuit?" John continued offering.

"But I want the biscuit..." George frowned.

"You can have the last biscuit, George," I told him. "Um, I hope you guys don't mind but I'm feeling a little tired. Could I go to bed now?" I asked slowly.

"That's fine! Good night, Paulie," John smiled patting my shoulder.

"Yeah, goodnight," George and Ringo smiled as they watched me walk into the bathroom.

I picked up my tooth brush and started brushing my teeth. I stared at my reflection in the mirror. I looked terrible, my hair was a mess and I had bags under my eyes. It looked like I haven't slept in days.

I've been up late at night practicing the new song I wrote, I decided to name it "Love You Forever". I haven't told the others about it yet because it sounds really cheesy. I decided the first person to hear it would be the love of my life.

I finished brushing my teeth and searched for a comb to brush my moptop. When I finished, I walked to my room and laid on my bed. I stared back at the locked door then down at the small clock on the bedside table, it was 11:30.

"I love you, Paul," Ashley smiled vibrantly as she caressed my cheek.

I could feel tears sting my eyes, "What are you doing here Ashley?" I asked quietly.

She smirked and leaned in closer to kiss me.

"Ash..." I frowned as I felt tears roll down my cheeks.

"What's wrong, Paulie? Why are you crying? Do you miss me?" She cooed as she ran her fingers through my hair.

One of part of me wanted to say No, I don't miss you! And the other part of me wanted to say Yes, Ashley, please come back! But before I could make the reasonable decision, the words left my lips, "Yes, Ashley, please come back!"

She chuckled, "Well, unlucky for you, but I don't want you back!"

I gasped, I expected those words but it still shocked me.

"I thought you would've gotten over me by now, Paul!" Ashley started laughing.

"I am over you! I don't know why I said that-"

"Shh," She hushed, "you can't fool me. Clearly you haven't gotten over me."

"I have!"

"Don't lie to me, darling. We both know you're gullible as hell!" She raised her voice as she pushed me. "Plus, you know I love Roger more!"

When she pushed me, I fell back. Everything around me started disappearing, there was nothing but Ashley and I! "Look at this, Paul! Everything in your life is going to pass you by, everything except me!" Ashley screamed to my face. "You're going to forget many things throughout your life, but you'll never forget me! I love Roger!"

"No! You love me more!" I started shouting as everything around me blurred. I couldn't see anything, I could just hear.

"I don't love you, Paul!"

I started sobbing.

"Cheapskate idiot!" She yelled at me. "Face it, you're never gonna let me go! You're gonna be miserable for the rest of your life because I am definitely not coming back!" Ashley screamed louder.

I felt a hand gripped around my shoulder. "Excuse me, are you alright?" A voice said, I wasn't sure where it was coming from or whose it was.

I jolted awake.

"Are you awake? I'm sorry to wake you."

I opened my eyes and looked towards where the voice was coming from. I saw a shadow right next to me.

"Ahhhh!!" I screamed in fear as I jolted from fright. I jolted so far I fell off the bed.

"Oh my God!" The voice said startled, it was a girl. "I did not mean to do that! Please tell me you're okay! Where's the light?! I can't see anything!"

I quickly brought my hand up to my forehead and rubbed my head.

"Here's the light!" The girl said in accomplishment as she switched on the lamp. She looked down at me and covered her mouth.

My eyes adjusted to the light as I tried to catch a glimpse of her. Who was this random girl who magically appeared in my room?! Is John pranking me or something?! She had light brown hair, tied back in two loose braids. She had ocean blue eyes and long eyelashes. She was average height and wore a light yellow t-shirt, some Jean shorts and some black-and-white Converse shoes.

"You're Paul McCartney?! OMG are you alright?!" She ran over to me and sat next to me on the floor. She grabbed a tissue and slowly dabbed my forehead. "You're bleeding, I'm so sorry!"

"Uh- where did you come from?" I asked looking up at her.

"Hang on, let me just grab a wet cloth for your head," She replied with a smile. It was the most beautiful smile I've ever seen. "Here, come sit on the bed, it's more comfortable than the floor."

She left to look for the bathroom which she found almost instantly. I sat on the bed, alone. What the hell just happened?!

"Okay, uh, Paul, I'm back. Here, just put this on your head," She placed the wet cloth on my head and instructed me to lay back on the bed. "I think you hit your head on the table, Darl," She bit her lip. "I really did give you a fright, didn't I?" She held her cheeks in her two hands and stared off to the corner of the room nervously.

"Please, it's nothing, I promise," I tried to calm her down. "What's your name?"

"Sabrina," She looked down, deep in thought. "Okay, okay, so I'm here with literally the Paul McCartney right in front of me," She mumbled to herself quietly.

"Are you alright?"

She smiled as her eyes widened, "So this really did work? I can't be in 2021 anymore, I must be in the 60s, right?"

"Oh no..." I rubbed my forehead.

She continued mumbling to herself. "Do you know Adriana? She loves Taylor Swift, Eminem and Harry Styles?" Sabrina asked biting her nails nervously.

"I'm afraid I do..." I said hesitantly.

"So, my sister really did come here, didn't she?" She shook her head nervously. "Look, Paul, I need to confess something, I am Adriana's older sister, she told me about her journey to the 60s, I became jealous and decided to come here and see for myself. You're probably mad at me, aren't you?"

I took a deep breathe, "No, I'm not mad," I smiled. Sure I was scared but it was impossible to be mad at Sabrina.

"Thank you so much," She smiled and she hugged me.

"But do you have the gem with you?" I asked.

"Yes," She said as she picked it up off the carpet.

"Oh, thank God!" I gave a sigh of relief.

Right now, I would be freaking out. But, I can't in front of Sabrina, she's as nervous as I am. I've never had this feeling before, I don't know just when I met her I got this feeling. She may be who I wrote the song about.
