...Paul hope dearly that one day he would be able convince his father in letting him love who he wanted... which caused him to sigh...

~ As those two weeks dragged on both boys went on with their midnight "meetings" in secrecy up until Paul's release. ~

Paul slowly let his eyes flutter open, then shot up when he realized today was the day, in which he would become "somewhat independent".

"Boys.....your breakfast is ready.", yelled Jim from the morning room causing Paul to quickly get dress and make his way downstairs only to bump into his brother "Michael" who seem to have a scowl upon his young face.

"Mornin' Mike.", spoke Paul, who was fumbling with his shirt sleeve buttons.

"Why can't you keep your bloody voice down at night?" , asked a clueless Michael who eyed his brother with a powerful scorn causing Paul to clear his throat to defend himself but only to be interrupted by Jim once more who called for the boys.

"Comin' Da'.", explained Paul who zipped down the flight of stairs leaving Mike in a 'cloud of confusion'.

Jim watched and acknowledged Paul from the table as he strutted towards the chair.

"James..", spoke Jim causing Paul to squirm at his first name.

"Yes Da'?", answered Paul as he took his seat and avoided his fathers eye contact reaching for toast.

"..I think you know that today...", Jim proceeded as he noticed Paul's ears had perked up, "...you are no longer grounded but let me make myself clear..", he slowly said in a stern voice.

"One I don't want that no good Lennon boy around here and two I don't want you and 'that boy'..", he said with emphasis, "..alone.",causing Paul to choke on a piece of toast he was eating, "Understood?", questioned old man Jim who looked upon his eldest son.

"Understood.", replied Paul but before Paul could add something to his answer his brother Michael arrived downstairs and sat looking at both his father and brother. Shrugging at the two he grabbed his plate and began eating not noticing the look upon his fathers face.

...After breakfast...

Paul had picked up his bit and ran upstairs to grab his guitar. Quickly shooting down the flight of stairs he passed his father who had his finger in a question like way and out the door, yelling out a "be back later, love you" and made his way to Mendips...and boy would be awkward seeing Mimi since "that day."

*Knocks upon Mimi's door*

Mimi who had been in the sitting room heard a faint knock on the door. Getting up she made her way and opened the door to a boy who appeared as a bit to nervous. Paul stood there like a statue with his guitar upon his back looking up at Mimi.

Shaking his head softly, he cleared his throat and spoke, "Good evening...Ms. Smith"

"Afternoon Paul, what brings you here?" , she asked even though she knew the answer.

" Uhm...I was wondering if John was around.", he answered as he looked towards the floor then back up and smiled when she nodded and gestured Paul to come in.

"John...Paul is here!", she called out to her nephew.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

John , who was laying face down, couldn't make out what Mimi had stated so with a grunt he picked up his head and yelled back childishly, "What!?"

Mimi scoffed an yelled once again, "John...Paul is here!" John furrowed his eyebrows in disbelief and sluggishly got off his bed. Walking down the stairs he placed his glasses on his face and looked up. There beside his dear ol auntie was his beloved Paul. His face lit up with such joy that Paul was afraid he was going to miss a step.

"Paul?", he spoke softly walking near Paul.

"Hello John", Paul smiled as he met up with John. Mimi sorta got a hint from her nephew ,when she saw he directed a smile towards her, that she should leave the boys to themselves and returned to the sitting room. The boys hugged each other like they haven't seen the other in years. John pulled away and grabbed Paul's slender hand leading him upstairs.
