BOOK 3: I Need You

Chapter 2

We drove back up to my house and i got out. 

"We can try again some other time Hanna. He knows his way back too." Maria comforted me. 

I nodded and Maria helped me up to my door. My mother came out.

"Are you okay?" She asked.

I looked at her a tear rolled down my eye. "We cant find him."

"Its dark any ways, he'll find a place to stay im sure." She said and walked me inside.

"Let me go change then ill give you your cloths back John." I called.

"Okay!" He yelled back.

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

I went straight to bed, not eating supper. I didn't feel good at all. I was scared for Paul. Scared he was in leah's clasps and not allowed out.

Why'd i have to go back here and face this? I was so happy being married with Paul. I said. I cried there, i looked out my window a couple times but didn't see him.

My door opened and Ringo switched on the light.

"Hanna you okay?"

"Im fine." i sniffed.

"What happened?" He came over and sat down on my bed.

"Rings, im fine. Just tired."

"You were crying, you are still."

"No im..." I paused, no use hiding anything from him.

"Wheres Paul?" He asked.

"I...i..don't know." I cried.

He reached for a tissue and handed me one, then blew his nose as well. He didn't look better at all.

"Its okay, Paul's old enough to take care of himself." RIngo hugged me.

"Not if he's injured...and Leah has gone mad!"

"Is it something George did today?"

"No, and how'd you know they even talked?"

"I have my sources." He said. He stroked my hair and i felt sleepy now, his hold was so comforting.

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

Me and Ringo were leaning against the wall when i woke up. I pushed his arms off me and quietly walked out the door. I met my mother while coming out.

"Hi!" I smiled.

"Well you recovered." She said.

"Are you okay?" I asked.

She paused and sighed. "Yes, yes im fine."

I looked at her confusingly. Then my bedroom door opened.

I turned quickly with a smile. "Good morning...Ringo?"

"Mornin'. See your better." He grinned a little bit.

"Richard why were you in there?" My mother asked him.

"I was just comforting Hanna last night, she missed him terribly."

My mother gave me a hug and said she was sorry. "Your father is looking around, and they have to police looking too..." 

I gasped and looked from one to the other. "You mean it wasn't a dream?!" I shouted.

"Oops." Ringo said.

"He's still with that maniac??" I exclaimed.

"Hanna calm down." Ringo said putting a hand on my shoulder. I pushed it off and ran downstairs, grabbing my coat.
