So I was walking to the Cavern. It was a nice walk; fairly dark, but not dark yet. I was getting closer to the Cavern. When I got there, I opened the door, and I immediately noticed the scent of sweat, tobacco and alcohol. I heard music being played inside. John didn't know I was here, so I was on the search for him. I looked around the dark basement and then I saw him. My John.

I came to him without even saying hi, and hugging him tightly as if I haven't seen him for years. He was in shock before he realized that it was me that threw myself on him. He smiled and kissed me passionately.
"Hey, my love. I missed you."
"Hi Johnny. I missed you, too. Are you okay?"
"Yea, yea. I'm fine, just a little surprised that you came so early before the show. I thought you said that you'll come after."
"Yea, I know, but I wanted to surprise you. And I guess I succeeded." I said, smiling. I gave him a kiss on the cheek and ruffled his hair a bit. He warmly smiled and caressed my cheek with his hand.
"Yes, you did succeed. Well, since you're here and we have some time until the show, I guess I can take you backstage to say hi to the rest of the lads."
"Okay, I'd love to!" I was glad that I'll be able to see the boys again since it was quite a while since the last time I saw them. But then I suddenly got butterflies in my stomach because I realized that I would be meeting Paul again. I wonder how he will react when he sees me.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

John took me down to a hallway that lead to backstage. I heard the sound of teenage boys speaking behind the door. John opened it and everyone stared at me. Paul looked quite shocked and hurt to see me, while George was completely happy to see me again after such a long time.
"Hey lads! Look who came to see our show tonight!" I blushed at the fact that everybody was still keeping their eyes on me, which to me felt very unpleasant.
"Anna!" George practically jumped on me when he came to hug me. I fell to the floor and started laughing. "Anna, I haven't seen you in such a long time. Where've you been?"
"Hey, Geo. I missed you, too. I was just home, being bored and stuff."
"Oh okay."
"George, get off of me. I need to talk to Paul." I struggled to get George off of me, but he soon got off himself. "Oh, yeah. Sure. Sorry about that." I could tell he blushed a little. To make it not look so awkward, he just patted me on the back.
I went to go and see Paul. I haven't talked to him in two days, which seems a lot, but not really. He was just standing by the bar, holding his Coke.
"Hey, Paul. What's the matter?" He seemed pretty upset for some reason. He just sighed, still standing there and me, waiting for an answer. "Hi Anna. Nothing's wrong, I'm just...frustrated, that's all. Nothing to worry about too much, love." His teary eyes and sad smile made me want to cry. I didn't want to see Paul like this. He was the one that saved me that night when I needed someone the most, so now I'm going to help him, too.
"Oh, Paul. Don't say that. I can see that something's going on. Why can't you tell me. It helps when you let out your problems and not keep them locked inside of you."
"I- I can't tell you. I- it's a little personal. I hope you don't mind, though. I'm sorry, Anna."
"Oh.. No, it's fine. I don't mind at all. I'll just let you be, then. I hope you'll feel better before the show starts. I want to wish you the best."

A few minutes later, the boys took their instruments and flew out the door and on stage. It was time for their show. John was the last one to get out, so I went with him.
"Are you excited for the show?" I asked, as he put his arm around my waist.
"Yep, I can't wait especially when I've got my girl lookin' at me." I smiled and giggled a bit at John's comment. He gave me a kiss on the forehead.
"I'm so excited to see your show! I want to wish you good luck as well."
"I'm glad to hear that, Ann. I hope you'll enjoy it."
"Okay, I'll go and sit somewhere close to the stage so we can see each other."
"Gear! I hope you know that I love you, Anna."
"Yes, John. I know. And I love you, too. Now get out of here or you'll be late for your show!" Before he ran out, I grabbed his wrist and quickly gave him a peck on the lips. John smiled, satisfied by the action. "Good luck, Johnny." "Thanks, babe."
