"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO MY HAIR?!" Was the first thing Paul heard that morning.

Paul blearily trudged over to the bathroom to where John was freaking out. "Do you not remember anything from last night?"

"I remember smoking a joint and crying, but I just figured I went to sleep after that!!" John said, pulling at his hair in the mirror.

"It was like 2 and you woke me up with very unsettling laughter, so I went to go check on you and you cut all of it off, quite horribly, I might add. So I fixed it and then you made me shave your face."

John ran a hand through his hair, full of anguish, "What am I gonna do?!"

Paul shrugged, "I kinda like it. You look less like a homeless guy now."

"I never looked like a homeless guy!!" John said indignantly.

"You barely brushed or washed your hair in the past few days and you looked like someone who would offer kids candy in a van, if I'm being honest," Paul chuckled.

John sighed miserably, "It took me two years to grow that much hair... all of it... gone with one blunt."

"John, calm down, it looks fine, it looks cute," Paul blushed, realising what he had said.

With another groan, John slumped down to the floor, grabbed his phone and called someone, "Ringooo, I need you. I made a terrible mistake when I was high..." Ringo said something Paul couldn't hear, but assumed was about him because John glanced over at Paul and blushed. "What? No! I didn't- I swear I didn't! I didn't get anyone pregnant, Ritchie... Yes I'm positive... Alright, see you in a minute."

John didn't say anything else to Paul as he went back to his room, probably remembering the argument from yesterday...

Ringo barged in the door without a warning, "Johnny, where are you? What happened?!"

John trudged out in a hoodie, head down, the hood over his new haircut. "I made a terrible mistake, Ringo." He sadly took off the hood, revealing his 'terrible mistake' to Ringo.

"That's your terrible mistake?!" Ringo laughed, "You look fine, Lenny!! Better than fine! It suits you well!!"

"That's what I've been trying to tell him!" Paul said from his place leaning against the wall.

John glared at him, shooting daggers into Paul's heart.

Ringo looked between the two of them quizzically. "So uh... you guys... lotta tense energy..."

John rolled his eyes. "He's being difficult."

What the hell is that supposed to mean?! And what gave him that idea?!

Paul scoffed and grabbed his suitcase and shoes. "Fucking fine. I'll just be 'difficult' back at home!!" He didn't look back at John as he stormed out, making his way home, fuming with anger.

"Why were you such a dick to Paul, man? You love him," Ringo asked, puzzled about the interaction he had just witnessed.

"We got into a fight," John said curtly.

Ringo rolled his eyes, "About what, pray tell?"

John sighed and slumped down onto the couch. "He apparently thought we were dating, so I was like, 'what? No, we were just friends,' which hurt his feelings a lot and he ran away crying and then when I found him he said that he just wanted to go back to being friends and then he's just been mad at me for the past few days and when I asked him about it he called me stupid and an oblivious idiot. So I'm mad at him."
