As Years Go By

chapter 1:ferry cross mersey

"Get up ye queer" were the words that woke James up, as he found himself lying on a bench along a river. His Makeup covered lids fluttered open as strong, harsh light was pointed in his eyes, blinding him. He refocused his eyes and looked up to see a strict-looking man dressed as a British cop glaring coldly at him.

That was when he started getting confused. Why on earth would he be resting on a bench ? Had he gotten drunk ? He had no memory of doing so after all . And where was he ? Los Angeles didn't have even have a river and the building sorrounding him seemed too old to be situated anywhere near the west coast.

The cop was still standing, keeping a 5 feet distance, as if disgusted.

"What's wrong sir ?" James quietly asked. He started giving more attention to details around himself, and found a Sign indicating his position "Dingle" .
"What's going on ?" He continued, as the older man didn't answer anything.

"Yer coming along with me." The policeman bluntly answered .

James got up, instantly feeling dizzy but went on walking as the cop was poking His arse.

Even though his vision was blurred he saw a rather small person walking his way calmly. As he got closer, he could see the man's huge beautiful nose, full lips and sky blue, doe eyes. His hair was coiffed in a teddy boy quiff and a strand of white hair on his right temple. 

He was truly beautiful and his pp must have been so big .

As they exchanged glances, it felt just just as if they'd always known each other.
Some would call it love at first sight but it wouldn't be enough to describe the feeling they both felt.
