Whatever Happened To Brian Jones?

Can You Hear The Music?

Mick's POV:

"She should be here..."

"Who?"

"Kaitlyn"

"Kaitlyn?"

"Ya.. She helps me understand the music"

I glanced around and then looked back at Brian.

"Why you want her to be here anyway?"

"No reason"

He sounded unsure as he tried to find Kaitlyn.

"Why don't we just sit down already, they're starting" Keith suggested and Brian shrugged.

We sat down on some rocks.

These musicians were very good, I had to admit. Someone was tapping my shoulder and I looked over.

Keith was pointing to Brian.

I looked over and my eyes widened, Brian was completely entranced by the music. His head was going back and forth and his eyes were closed.

There was some rustling from nearby and someone sat down behind me.

"Hello Mick, darling"

I smiled, Marianne.

Turning around, I faced my girl and she kissed me.

Keith made room for her and I grabbed her hand.

"Hey Brian" Anita had come too.

"Hey Kaitlyn" he still had the smile on his face, facing the music.

"Who's Kaitlyn?"

Things were about to get ugly, I could just tell.

"Uh, hey Marianne, Keith, wanna go back to the hotel for a drink?"

Keith nodded and Marianne's eyes widened as she looked over at Anita.

"Sure Mick, lets go.. night Anita, Brian"

Katie's POV:

I was running a bit late, and I didn't think I was going to make it to the musicians. This is how it happened:

"Can you work the late shift?"

And now, I was working the late shift. I blew out a breath and wiped the table again, nobody would come at this hour! It WAS pretty late.

I walked up to my room and grabbed my record player, I'd started playing it more and was kind of, dare I admit it, missing England's music.

'Come On

I wanna see ya baby

Come On

I don't mean maybe'

"Come On" I mumbled under my breath and continued on with the rest of the song.

My boss had left a while ago to let me man the shop on my own and I sat down on the floor. Humming along.

Mick, Keith and who I presume was Marianne passed by and waved at me, I waved back and they wandered in, drunk.

"Itssss nice to meeet you Kaaaaatiee" Keith slurred and grabbed my hand, pulling me up from my sitting position.

"Keith, you already know me"

I patted his shoulder and stifled a laugh.

"Oh heeeeeeyy Katie! This iss me bird, Marianne!"

Mick hugged a slim blonde girl and I smiled, she was very pretty. Mick was as well so I guess they suited each other.

Pretty girl with handsome boy, I guess.

"Hello Marianne" I held out my hand and she smiled real huge.

Then she put her hand on my mine, shoved it to my side, and threw her hands around my shoulders in a hug.

"Hello girl, you're very prrrrrretty"

I blushed and slightly pushed her off, she hopped back and jumped into Mick's arms. He bent his head and she lifted hers, then they kissed.

"Awwww" Keith gushed as he came to stand beside me, "look at the two WUV BIRDS!"

"hey!" I laughed as Keith made kissy noises, I slapped him lightly on the shoulder, "not so loud! People might hear, it's not daytime ya'know!"

Mick and Marianne stopped kissing and Mick shot a glare at Keith.

"Leavemewithmywoman" Mick slurred in one sentence and Marianne laughed a tinkly laugh.

I laughed as well and Keith smiled,

"Hey you two! Get a room!"

Keith's arm went 'round my shoulder and we leaned back, laughing.

"Well, there is one upstairs"

I pointed to the roof.

"Okthenwewillseeyoupeoplelater"

"Mick" I breathed, "take breaths between words, honey"

"IwilldowhatIwant!" Mick announced before leading his lady upstairs

"Bye bye all" Marianne laughed and looked back once before joining her man on the stairs.

"Well, where do ya wanna go now darlin'?"

"Keith. We ain't together!"

"Aw I know, lovely, lets justgosee some music!"

"Alright, Keith, lets go"

Keith smiled his funny smile and led me out the door, it was so late, who cared if I got in trouble?

"Brian, I-I've had it!! I'm DONE!" Someone, who I assumed was Anita, yelled in a shrill voice. I cringed and Keith covered his ears,

"They been at it again!"

At it? Again? Fighting? What?

A flash of blond hair came by and knocked Keith off his feat and onto the ground.

"O-oh I'm sorry Keith" Anita said, in tears. Keith jumped to his feet and shrugged quickly,

"Naw it's s'alright Anita, you ok?"

"No, not at all.."

Keith put his arm around Anita's shoulders and she leaned into him.

"I'll see ya later Katie, k?"

"Ok, see you later"

The two walked off whispering to each other and I continued on, grabbing my mask from my pocket and putting it over my face, although I doubt he'd recognize me in the dark.

Then I made my way to the music.
