HANNAs POV.

I met tge boys and Mariah back at the place we would meet. 

"I found him. He's goin out with a girl. I told him not to but he wouldn't listen." Maria said.

"Where's he now?" George asked.

"With the girl. Her names Julia."

"Ooh!" I smiled.

"It's not that great." Maria said.

"Let Johnbe on his own. My mom wanted us to be home to keep am eye on Paul. She said he is getting better." I said.

"okay, well by." 

George waved good bye and we departed.

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

Me and Ringo walked home and waited for Paul to finish showering. Mom left and said shed be back at 8.

Paul came down stairs. He looked much better then this morning.

"Hey Paulie!" I said with joy.

He sat down next to me and looked at the ground.

I looked at Ringo who gave me a questioning look.

"Are you okay?" I asked putting my hand on his shoulder. He pushed it off.

I sighed and got up. Ringo followed me into the kitchen.

"Tea?" I asked.

"Sure." He got down three mugs.

"Paul won't drink anything." I said. 

"Don't hurt to try." Ringo shrugged. 

"guess not." I poured a glass of water.

"Give this to him."

Ringo shook his head. "you do it."

"but I."

Ringo shook his head slowly."You do it."

I brought Paul his glass and held it in front of him. He looked at the ground then up at me. His eyes were still red from not enough sleep. They were baggy too.

The phone rang at the moment.

I answered it.

"John?"

Ringo came over.

"What? Why'd you do that!!!...John, your in big trouble!...I can't help you...you have to get out of this yourself, and hiding wont help!...It'll be okay, don't be scared. You can cone on over okay." he hung up and I looked at Ringo.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"John thinks the cops are after him."

"Why?"

"Because he stole a pack of ciggies."

Ringo's eyes widened. "why'd he have to steal em?"

"I don't know."

"How'd he know their after him anyways?" Ringo questioned.

"A man took a picture of him."

"But wouldn't the cameras in the store do that?"

"How do you know about those?" 

"Research on that machine of yours." Ringo grinned.

"You can read!"

"No it read it for me." He chuckled.

Paul started saying somthing under his breath and stood up quickly.
