Title: Passing

~~

"Hello, Paul." John sighed as he sat on the grass. The gravestone in front of him was still fairly new, shiny, dozens of flowers were scattered underneath, "It's been twenty-eight days since you left us." John stretched his legs out infront of his body, "George and Ringo are staying in a flat together now, I'm in the one next to them with Yoko. The walls are really thin and I hear George crying a lot. Everytime I visit, his eyes are always red and swollen. Your death hit him the hardest I think, you were his big brother. Ringo's handling it a bit better, but not in the right way. I think he's trying to pretend it hasn't happened, you can see the sadness in his eyes when he thinks no one is looking. He comforts George but I think he needs just as much support. But, as much as they loved you, Paulie, they don't compare to my love for you. You- you were my first love, I fell in love with you way before I met Cyn. Whenever I do things, I always hear your voice in my head. You support me. Also, I think I'm falling out of love with Yoko.. ever since we've moved back to London she's-she's changed. She became all those horrible thing that people said about her. I've been hanging out more with Cynthia and Julian, and I'm sure I don't love Cyn anymore- at least not like that. She's more of a best friend to me now, always knows what to say to comfort me. I do love her, just not like I use to. Julian is slowly beginning to trust me again! He's growing up so fast, and he's become really close with Sean. It's adorable seeing them play together, you would have loved it... Paulie, you leaving has torn me. I miss you, I miss you so much. I know Georgie and Rich do too, but you've fixed my family. I can't thank you enough, but I've realised how much of a dick I am, it took your death to make me realise my mistakes. I've become nicer, you can tell from people's reactions to me. I'm finally moving on, Paulie. For the first week, I wouldn't sleep nor eat, I just couldn't. We ended on bad terms, I should have talked to you, and the guilt still eats at me. But then I thought, what would Paulie have wanted? He would have wanted me to move on with life, but not forget him. I've done just that, Macca, it didn't take too long thankfully -Cyn helped a lot- but most of all you did, just thinking of you makes me feel like I've got no worries and I love it. I think- I think I'm in love with you Paul. I don't care that people are homophobic, I don't even think I'm queer. I just, I just love you so much. I think I always have, it makes my heart ache sometimes. I hope you love me too, I think you did. Cyn once told me, we look at eachother like there's no one else in the world. And it's true, sweet Paul, it's true, when I think of you there is no one else in the world. However, I can't have you. It's the sad truth, but I'm sure I'll find someone. You and I were born soulmates, but someone can always become your soulmate. I've been talking for too long now, Julian is waiting in the car, I just wanted to let you know. I hope you're listening to me, watching over me." John stood up, ready to leave, but just as he was about to turn around, he saw something from the corner of his eye; it was a man, with a black, mop-top and a grey suit. It couldn't be, could it? John turned and looked. There he was, Paul McCartney, young and happy. The ghost smiled and waved.

'I love you.' he mouthed, before turning away, walking as he faded into nothing. John grinned as he felt tears prickle in his eyes.

"I love you too, Paulie." 

With that, he turned and walked away, back to the car. Feeling happier than he had in years.
