Midnight Man

Flowers

Johns pov

I took my guitar strap off my shoulder and walked off stage, hearing all the screams get louder.

I skipped down the stairs back to the dressing room.
"Nice show lads!"
I yelled patting all the lads on the shoulder as they walked passed.

All of them were happy, but Paul wasn't.

"You alright there Paulie?"
He turned around.

He looked furious.
"I saw Amy out there.... she looks happy. She told me her past. You know her past. Yet your still leading her on!"
I was taken aback by his rant.
"What do you mean?"
He came closer to me.
"I mean Cynthia John. Who else would I be talking about. I can tell you feel something about Amy. But when she finds out. I don't think Amy will feel anything towards you."
He said, Paul backed up and walked out.

George and to go looked at me and shrugged.
"He does have a point John."
George said as he plopped at biscuit in his mouth and walked out.
"Just think about her feelings."
Ringo said following George out the door.

I sat on the couch slowly getting a headache.
I got up and hit my head really hard.
"What have I done now?!"
The door opened and Amy came in.
"The show was absolutely ama-"
Amy looked me up and down.
"Oh John are you ok?"
She was so concerned for me, yet I lie and lie and lie to her.

"Yeah I'm ok..."
I got up and rubbed my temples.
"John you look terrible."
Amy said holding my face.
"Talk to me."
I sniffed and looked her up and down.
"Come with me."
I took her arm and lead her out.

We walked outside, it was cold and dark.

I wrapped my coat over Amy's shoulders.
I held her close and we walked across the road.

I took her to a tree on a hill.
We sat under it.

"Yknow you are beautiful."
She smiled and laid her head in my lap.
"Sure."
"You are!"
I said brushing the hair out of her face.

She had the most amazingly beautiful face.

"And your an amazing musician John!"
I smirked.
"You think?"
"I don't think I know."
I smiled.

I looked out to the other trees, the wind blowing my hair. I felt like I loved the girl. What am I thinking of course I do!

Come on John! Tell her!
Quickly you love her!
I love you
I love you
I love you!
"I-I think I want to be with you forever Amy."
I said not looking at her.

I felt her get up.
She looked at me.
"I'm- I'm sorry John. I can't talk about this now."
She got up dropping my jacket and ran down the hill.
"Wait Amy!"
No reply.

I watched her run down.

I leaned against the tree.
"Help me mum."
I mumbled.
-
I turned the key and walked into the hotel.
I didn't bother going to Paul.
I didn't bother doing anything.
I walked into my room crashing into my bed.

I shut my eyes, when I opened them I noticed a letter on my desk.

I got up and picked it up.
It read

Dearest Johnny,
I miss you so much hun, you haven't replied to any of my other letters. I'm getting worried. I hope your ok. I hope your having fun. I love you so much remember that. I can't wait for you to come home. I can't wait to see you. I can't wait to hold you. Back in 1959 when we started dating I knew you'd be the one.

Love, Cynthia
Xxx

I slammed the letter on the desk and ran to the shower.

I need to get my mind off things.
Amy's pov

"I-i- think I want to be with you forever Amy."
My heart dropped.

Fuck no. I felt it. I felt it.
I love him. Say it.

Amy come on say it!
I love you
I love you
I love you.

I needed to get out of this, I've only known him for like 2 or three weeks. That's not how love works.

Love at first sight isn't real.
I got up.
"I'm- I'm sorry John. I can't talk about this now."
I dropped his jacket and ran down the hill.

Tears were starting to form in my eyes.

I ran faster.
What is wrong with you Amy?
You love him!

I ran faster. I ran so fast my tears were forced out of my eyes.

He didn't even say he loved you. Tom didn't love you. Lucy doesn't love you. Mum doesn't love you.

You don't deserve love.
I ran but sliped.

I fell on the cold pavement, sharp pains sending to my legs.
I lay there on the ground.

Flashback
Amy's dad's pov

"You need to please!"
I yelled at my wife.

She wouldn't go back to work, she thinks she isn't good enough to go back to modelling after giving birth to two girls.

But she's still the most beautiful woman I've seen in my life!
"Tim you know I can't!"
I shook my head.

I heard the patters of little feet coming towards me.

I saw my eldest daughter Amy there.
"Baby why aren't you in bed?"
I asked.
"Why's mummy and daddy yelling?"
I sighed ans walked towards her.
"Mummy and daddy are fine, you go back to bed..."
I kissed both her cheeks.
"I need you put me bed."
I smiled at her English.
"Ok...."
I looked back to Laura.
"You stay there."
I mouthed.

Amy dragged me to her and Lucy's room.
Lucy was adorable, her little body was slumped over her pillows.

I smiled and sat on Amy's bed.
It was dark so i couldn't see anything, but I could see Amys Rosey red cheeks.

"Daddy?"
I hummed in response.
"Are you abe mummy falling out of love?"
"What? No of course not. Love doesn't fade away that fast! And I love your mummy with all my heart!"
"Really?"
"Really. Why do you ask?"
She shrugged and climbed into my lap.
"Will I find love like mummy and daddy?"
"Yes you will Amy."
"How do I know?"
I rockef her back and fourth.
"Falling in love is an amzing thing, it can happen within Weeks, months, years. But you'll see this person and ypull feel this sensation of happiness. You'll never want to leave there side. Nobody is perfect until you fall in love with them."
I said.
Amy was quite.
I looked down and she was sleeping with a big big smile on her face. I smiled and tucked her in.
Flashback over.

I remembered what my dad told me all those years ago.
"I'm in love dad."
I felt the wetness of the group's soak through my thin shirt.
"Then find him."
I got up and walked do his hotel.

John Lennon I love you.
