"What's going on with you towards George?"

John heard Ringo ask and mentally face planted because how was he meant to answer? he didn't know, he knew there was some strange feelings going on towards George but nothing he could explain. John let out a nervous chuckle "what do you mean?" "lad you think it's not clear how much you keep looking at him with admiration?" John stayed silent and shrugged "dunno what you are on about" "oh come off it" "eh?" "why don't you just admit it?" "admit what exactly?" "that you like him, duh" "...I beg your pardon"? Ringo shook his head in disbelief "Christ son, it's like I have found out before you have" "Ringo I have a wife, I have a son. George has Pattie. There is nothing going on" "and can you honestly tell me you have no confused or different feelings to him what so ever"? "confused yes.." John admitted "I don't know Rings, I doubt I like him like that but maybe I do?" Ringo gave a small smile "you'll find out, there is no rush but if you do, think carefully about the aftermath if something ever did happen" John gave a nod, he wanted to touch on the matter more but was too tired to in all honestly "thank you Ringo" "of course" "oh and Ringo?" "yes"? "I know I don't really have to ask but-" "you don't have to worry about me telling anyone, your secret is safe with me".

John and Ringo soon settled after that and drifted off to sleep. The following morning they were all woken up by an alarm clock six hours later, not enough sleep at all however they were all able to drag themselves out of bed with very little spoken because of tiredness and feeling grotty. Ringo kept catching John looking over to George probably unknowingly and couldn't help but feel sorry for the lad. They had just come back from breakfast in which they all didn't seem or want much, Wilson there was too off putting. They had a free hour before they had to go off for a press conference so they decided to go back to their hotel room. 

"So are we going to talk to Brian today?" Paul asked the others "I mean..I guess we should.." John replied and sat down by George, feeling slightly warmer, "but how are we going to get him alone without it making it shown? Wilson is glued to him" Ringo mentioned "then we just gotta find the right moment" George replied and putting a cigarette between his lips, John getting his lighter out before George did and lit it for him before getting a cig out for himself so that it didn't seem too odd and them exchanging a smile between the pair. Luckily the right moment came sooner than later for them as Brian knocked on the door and walked in, surprisingly alone.

"Alright lads?" he said and sat down next to Ringo, they all gave a small nod now feeling awkward and not knowing how to approach the situation, Brian could feel this in the atmosphere "is everything okay?" he asked concerned "I dunno. You tell us" John spoke up "you what?" "you heard me" "I don't think I follow"? "Christ Eppy! the plane, on the plane!" "John I'm lost. Explain" "no, you are the one that needs to explain to us. Why the fuck is Wilson telling you that it's your fault that you have gotten us in some type of mess!" Brian stayed silent, feeling ashamed "and don't lie. Wilson has been a right weirdo, threatening and all. what does he want with us? or you for that matter?!" "John please calm down. I'll..I'll try and explain okay." "you bloody better." John tutted,red in the face. "I can't say much right now, it's too soon and will make matters worse but I owe him and I didn't do it in time because I've been so wrapped up with taking care of you guys so he..he got you guys involved and I am sorry that you guys are in this mess, believe me I am so fucking sorry." no one said anything, no one could even look at Brian in the eye and the room was filled with nothing but silence.

It stayed like that in what felt like forever but was really around ten minutes. John was now pacing around the room, Ringo kept his gaze to the floor as did Paul and George. "has he done anything to you guys?" Brian spoke up again, he did know. He knew what Wilson had done but wanted to see if they would be honest "not that I know of" Ringo said just above a whisper however George's body tensed as he relieved the memories "if something happened we would have all told each other by now and came to you sooner" John gritted "is that right"? Brian asked the others while looking at them all, they all nodded. Brian looked straight at George "are you all sure?" George looked at him back, he could tell that Brian knew by his eyes and he knew he wanted him to confess but that was not going to happen "we are all sure." George replied and they continued to stare at each other for a good few seconds before John decided to speak up again "I'm sorry am I missing something?" Paul's eyes alerted "don't be silly."

"Oh come on George" Brian eventually gave out and Ringo and John looked at Brian confused while Paul looked guilty and George having a blank one "nothing to say, nothing happened that I know of." Brian sighed "no, no more secrets from any of us from each other now, we all need to confess" "confess what?" Ringo asked and looked at George even more confused but Gorge was stubborn, he wasn't going to mention "Geo..maybe you should just tell them" Paul said yet George gave Paul a glare "tell us fucking what"? John said "John no need to swear" Brian answered back "don't tell me what to do! George. what.happened." now George knew he was digging a hole for himself, he knew it was clear they knew something had happened but George couldn't even physically say what happened at this point even if he wanted to "oh my god John can you just shut your fucking mouth for once" George snapped, getting rather angry now. John walked over to George and stood right in front of the now standing younger lad "what did you just say?." "I said shut your fucking mouth Lennon." George gritted, both of them now having a glaring competition  "guys..please don't fight" Ringo said and sighed yet knowing one was probably going to break out "nawh what happened Geo?did the big man make you sad or give you a boo boo?" John teased "John." Paul warned, sounding rather angry himself "shut it Macca." John snapped again but kept his gaze on the youngest eyes who was trying very hard to show no signs of weakness "fine Lennon you wanna know so fucking badly? then fine! fine! Wilson fucki-"

"everything okay in here?" a voice from the door came from no where, all heads turned to see Wilson there with a smirk.
