Till There Was You (George Harrison Story)

Chapter 90

September 1973

"Please get me that bottle please, Zo." She got up and ran over to the table and grabbed the bottle of milk, and ran over to me.

"Here, Mommy!" She said, as I placed it in the baby bag. "Thank you, love." I kissed her forehead.

"I play with Jojo?" She asked, referencing Jordan, and I nodded. "Yes, you can play with Jojo when she comes over." She went over to her toys and began to play as I rocked Daniel.

Ahh yes. I gave birth to our beautiful baby boy Daniel Jeremy Harrison a few days ago, and we were expecting Pattie, Adam and Jordan to come over. Also, not only did Pattie marry Adam, they officially adopted Jordan as well.

The door opened, then closed, and there stood George. "Baba!" Zuri ran to George, and he dropped his things and kneeled to her level and hugged her. " 'Ello, babygirl." He kisses her forehead before he picked her up.

"Hi, Geo!" I called as he walked over to me and placed a kiss on my lips. "I still miss your beard." I pouted, and he could only laugh. "Out with the old, in with the new." He rubbed his clean chin and looked over at Danny as we called him. "Hi, love." He kissed his son's forehead, and Danny gave him a small smile.

For a new born baby, he was very quiet. He didn't cry much unless he needed something of course, but he probably only cried once throughout the night, so George and I actually got some rest. And as quiet as he is, he's also very curious. He likes to look around and observe his surroundings and is curious whenever he sees something, especially Cleo. Alright, enough of the proud mom talk for now.

So as the four of us sat, enjoying each other's presence, the doorbell rang. "Jojo!" She scrambled off of her father's lap and ran towards the door. "Slow down, babygirl!" George laughed as he followed his daughter to the door.

"Zuri!" "Jojo!" They both said as they hugged each other. "Hey! How are ye?" George asked as he greeted Pattie and Adam. "Everything is great! How was the interview?" Adam replied, as him and Pattie entered the house. "It was great. I just wanted it to be over." He answered.

"Hello, Brielle! Oh my- He's so cute!" Pattie said as she sat down next to me, and Zuri and Jordan raced past her and headed for her toys. "Thanks, Pattie." I smiled, and Danny looked at Pattie, clearly becoming a bit curious. He gurgled softly as he watched Pattie closely. "He has a lot of hair for a newborn." She observed and I smiled.

Zuri ran over to me and tapped my leg. "Hungry, mommy."

"Ask daddy to get you a snack, love."

"No! You, mommy!"

When Danny first came, Zuri was happy to have a sibling. She loved him. She would ask to feed him with his bottle. But I could tell she didn't like when we were all showing interest in Danny and didn't pay much attention to her as we usually would, like any other child with a new sibling.

"Alright, let's go get a snack." I handed the baby to Pattie, and she looked at him in awe. I took Zuri's hand and we went into the kitchen where George and Adam were talking. I sat her down in her booster seat and found some snacks to eat.

"May I have some too?" Jordan asked as she ran into the kitchen. "Sure." She sat down next to Zuri and I handed her some snacks as well.

The doorbell rang again, and George went to open it. From the kitchen, I saw Jace, Ruth and Mimi walk in, then soon Ravi, Ringo and Barbara came in. I had no clue that they all were coming to see the baby.

"Babygirl!" Ringo said as he entered the kitchen and kissed his goddaughter's forehead. "Hey Ritchie." I greeted and he came over to me and hugged me. "I saw Daniel. He's gorgeous. Looks like his father." He chuckled softly, and I laughed. "George has some pretty strong genes. Both Zuri and Danny look like him. It's like he reproduced asexually." We both laughed, and I looked over at Zuri.

She did have George's lashes and eyes, eyebrows and nose. She had my lips and face shape. She was the perfect mixture of George and I. She's beautiful. She looks pretty much 80% Geo and 20% me. She's definitely her father's child.

"Mommy! I finish!" She said, telling me to take her out of her seat, which I did. Then Jordan left with her to go play with toys, and Ritchie and I headed into the living room where everyone was looking at Danny, and he just stared at everyone in confusion.

I greeted everyone in the room, as they began to talk about Danny and how much he already looks like George and how he kind of looks like me.

Danny began to whine softly, and soon began to cry. "Aww, papa, what's wrong?" Pattie whispered softly to him. "He's right on time. Its lunch." I picked him up and went into the kitchen. I grabbed a blanket from the baby bag and placed it over my shoulder. Then I pulled out one of my breast from my shirt and began to feed him. As he drank, I covered my chest with the blanket, just in case.

"Mommy? Why Danny sad?" Zuri asked as she came into the kitchen, and behind her George came in.

"Because Danny was hungry. But he's eating now."

"Where?"

"He's under the blanket." I hinted at the blanket covering him and my chest.

"Why he hiding?"

"He's not hiding, dear." George cut in as he picked up Zuri and smiled at me. "He just likes eating away from all the attention. Why don't you go show your drawings to everyone?" Her eyes widened as George winked at me, and walked away with her.
