All Things Must Pass - Part 2 to What Is Life? ( A George Harrison FanFic)

Chapter 23

George's P.O.V.

I woke up to the best weather anyone could ask for in the month of March in England. The sun was shining through my window and I had Patti in bed next to me.

"Goodmorning," she whispered and I flipped her over to kiss her with me on top of her.

Something about this relationship we've been building over the last few weeks has felt so new and fresh. I knew this morning I had to bring Ollie back to Glyn's home to be with Lauren but I wanted to first take him out into the garden outside our home.

Things were already starting to grow and it gave me a sense of rebirth in all aspects of my life. A new life with my son, my career, and seeing whatever women I want to. Although lately Patti has been everything I have needed to cope with my marriage ending.

We woke up and grabbed Ollie and fed him. Then the three of us went outside and ran around through the garden together. Each time Ollie fell down cause he lost his balance he would look sad and I would pick him up and make him smile and then he would want to run again.

"You are an amazing father," Patti said to me.

"Well, thank you," I said to her kindly, "I don't know what I would do if Lauren takes him to America."

"She can't do that," Patti said, "you would have to fight it and take her to court."

"I wouldn't," I shook my head, that's where Patti didn't understand the relationship I have with Lauren, "I couldn't possibly take him from his loving mother."

"Sounds like she'd have no problem taking him from you," she added.

She wasn't wrong but I hoped that Lauren would at least know how hard it would be for me. But I didn't expect for her not to go. Ollie is probably going to grow up thinking Glyn is his father and that I had been the one to leave him.

I pushed all those thoughts aside and thought about the sunshine some more. A cloud was covering it and then it started peeking out, and it brought a sense of joy with it.

"Look Ollie... Here comes the sun!" I exclaimed to my little boy who looked around and then ran to me and into my arms.

I then started to hum a tune in my head and asked Patti to watch Ollie as I grabbed my guitar, some paper and a pencil back at the house. I ran back out and we sat around as I crafted the tune that was now stuck in my head.

It started out as a song about the sun peaking out and turned into something way deeper. Not only had the sun been gone all winter but for years as I have been so down in my musical career and really in all aspects of my life. I realized I maybe shouldn't have married a woman I didn't know so quickly, although for years she was my best friend. We were young and we weren't thinking about the future together; only the present.

I also thought about the daughter we lost in the terrible car accident and I decided to add in "little darling," in honor of her. It became an ode to her and how I was feeling in the aftermath.

"Little darling

         It's been a long cold lonely winter

Little darling

           It feels like years since it's been here                                        

  Here comes the Sun, doo-doo-doo-doo

               Here comes the Sun and I say...

   It's all right"

Patti played with Ollie as I wrote and then, as a lot of time passed, I had the song composed and realized it had gotten late into the morning. I needed to get Ollie to his new home.
