I Won't Give Up On Us (McLennon)

Worries

Paul's P.O.V:

I woke up early due to the fact that we have to meet Ally's dad today. It just doesn't feel right calling this man, Ally's father. John and I are her fathers and he didn't sound that nice even over the phone. What if that's something he's not okay with? John and I being together. He can just go straight to bloody hell if that's how he feels. This is going to be quite a day. John is snoring softly when I lean over to check the time. 5:27. 5:27 in the morning, I don't even really have to get up untill one in the afternoon but this is driving me mad. I lean in closer to John and listen to his relaxed breathing and it makes me happy. Who would have guessed when we first met, that two years later we'd be lying together here with a daughter. I was dating girls here and there and then all of a sudden my world revolves around John and Ally. I'm in a rock and roll band yet I'm a softy. His light breathing makes me feel calm and I look at him while the blue early light shines on his face. His eyelashes are still and long and I can imagine him batting them in that innocent way he does when he knows that I'm mad at him. I move my eyes from his lashes to his nose which is quite pointy but has a perfect bridge. Sort of defines him. I move my hand to his jaw and feel the firmness, it's smooth and perfectly set. If only he knew how mad he drove me or how I have to control myself around him, even his voice alone sets me. Sometimes I don't understand ho- "Paul."
"Fauking hell!" I'm startled at his words pulling me out of my thoughts. "Christ John, scared me half to death you did." I pant after trying to calm my racing heart.
"Just glad you're half alive, why are you awake so early?" His morning voice came out smooth like honey and the sarcasm still shined through it well enough.
"A cheeky lad, you are. I'm awake because I can't sleep." I can't tell him that I'm nervous about today.
"You know you don't have to worry about today, right? I'm going to be by your side the whole time and if he gets mouthy then you'll take Ally home and I'll handle it." I looked at him surprised. John fighting? I'd seen him fist it out with a few guys before and I've had my share of rumbles but I don't think I could handle seeing John being harmed in anyway anymore. I know John could handle this himself but this made me scared, he could get in trouble or if that guy is carrying a heater or something.. This was a horrifying thought.
"If he gets mouthy, we'll both get out of there with Ally. I don't want you to get in trouble." I was worrying now.
"I won't if he knows what's good for him." My head laid on his armvwhen I looked up at him knowingly, he gave a half smile and winked.
"How do you do that?" I stayed staring up at him.
"Do what babe?" He looked confused.
"How do you manage to get me everytime with those expressions?" He smiled at this with a guilty look.
"Like this?" He arched an eyebrow and puckered his lips deliberately making a goof of himself.
"Yes, like that." I couldn't help but laugh at how he looked, what on earth was this boy doing to me. We were just two young lads with alot of responsibilities that had alot under control but at the same time we were completely insane.
"Kiss me if you mean it." He gave me a sly look.
"If you wanted a kiss darling, you could've just asked." I snickered at my snarky remark.
"Oh, you're a funny lad now are ye?" He grinned elfishly.
"John what if this man, Ally's father doesn't accept our.. Lifestyle. You and I." He pulled himself up and I sat up.
"Is that what you're worried about?" He looked at me shocked.
"Paul, are you embarrassed of us?" He looked at me with hurt eyes.
"Not at all, I love you. That's all, I just don't want anyone criticizing us for how we are. Even though I know some people already do." I smiled meaningfully.
"You're mine and to be completely honest darling, those people who have a problem still aren't the least bit as attractive as my love." I smiled then wondered.
"You mean me, yeah?" He foolishly tried to hold back a laugh but I was really confused.
"Is it me?" I asked noticing that I hadn't got an answer. It had to be. Damn John.
"Yes love, now get to sleep. We have a things to do later and you look exhausted. Come here." I smiled, satisfied with his answer then crawled toward my lover. He pulled me into a spooning postion and kissed my ear.
"You drive me mad Macca." I felt him relax after whispering that in my ear.
"You used to drive me mad." I was teasing.
"Used to?" His voice tensed.
"Yeah I was driven completely insane already. Hear that lover boy? I'm crazy for you." He sighed, leaving me with a slick smile. Maybe today wouldn't be half bad at all. Maybe I was just over thinking things. Yeah, and this is what John made scary situations feel like,as if this was nothing and together we could do anything. Of course with Ally too. My sweet little rebel. She was sound asleep right now probably dreaming innocent dreams. After a minute or so, I can hear John snoring lightly again. This man who thinks he can protect everybody from everything. He deserved the world, and I'd give him just as much as I could.

The next chapter will be better, I promise sweethearts. ❤
