From 1967 (Syd Barrett Fan fiction)

Chapter 8 ~ Where are you, my love?

✨Syd's Point Of View✨

After Hannah walked off like she did, I've been incredibly confused.
I have no idea where she's at.
And now that I'm sober, I regret not chasing after her.

And I was very inappropriate with her, but I don't particularly regret that.
I think she secretly enjoyed it.
I just wish I could find her.

I ended up falling asleep on a random bench while searching for Hannah.
But I couldn't seem to find her.

I suddenly felt a tap on my shoulder.

"Syd, right?" the girl asked.

Oh! It was Lisa from yesterday.

"Erm, yes."

I didn't really want to speak with her.
I remember Hannah telling me that Lisa used her, and hurt her.

"So, are you and Hannah a thing?" she asked me.

"I, uh, don't quite know." I said, unsure.

"It's a yes or no question, Syd Barrett." she said as she stared straight into my eyes and flashed a glimpse of the watch at me.

She knows everything.
She knows who I am, and she knows where I'm from.

"Erm, yes. I mean no."

She smiled at me.

"So you mean to tell me that you, a 21 year old man, has possibly had a relationship with a 15 year old girl? How wrong. You could go to prison." she said as she as she flashed me a 'I have you wrapped around my finger' sort of grin.

I still remained silent.

"You certainly aren't denying it. Well, I guess you wouldn't need to. I have proof." she said as she pulled out her phone.

"Wha-" I started.

She began playing the audio, and I could hear it clearly.

"I-i just can't believe that you're....15 right now. You look so different."

"Syd!"

"Sorry not sorry."

"Syd! I'm 15! And you're not even supposed to exist right now, but while you are here, you're 21!"

"So?"

"It's illegal for you and I to be a thing. So while we're here, nothing romantic."

"Love, that's going to be so bloody hard. Can't we just...secretly be a thing? It's not like anyone will notice. I've got a baby face. And how could I possibly ignore the most beautiful girl in sight?"

Then, it got to the part where I whispered in her ear, I couldn't believe the audio even picked that up, I thought I was quiet.

"If you couldn't tell, you're the most beautiful girl in sight."

"Syd, I'm sorry, but this is wrong."
