"If he tries anything, I'll be sure to let you know."

"You better. No more leaving me out of things. Got it?"

"Yeh. Yeh. I get it. Listen, I gotta get back inside."

"Okay. But you had better call me to tell me yer fine."

"I am fine and I will be fine. Trust me."

"Not with that man in there."

"Okay. I'll call if there's any problem. Is that what you wanna hear?"

"Yes. You better."

John nodded, walked back inside and shut the door. Paul sighed and walked back to his car before getting in. Ringo was the first to speak. "So? What's he say?"

"He's just tired."

"Told ye he was fine Paul. Nothing to worry about."

"Yeh. Nothing." He said to himself as he just stared at the front door.

"Come on Paul. We don't have all day. We checked to see if he was fine. He is. Now, let's go."

"No." Paul said opening up the car door again. "Stay here. I'll be back."

"Wha- Paul! Get back here!"

"I'll only be a few minutes."

Paul jogged back up to the door and let himself in using the spare key. John heard the door and jogged up to it.

"What are you still doing here?"

"I couldn't just leave. You know that."

"I'll be fine. You really shouldn't be here."

"Why not?"

"I don't know. I just don't want you getting hurt."

"How would I get hurt? Yer the one here with him. I should be the one worrying about you. How could you even let him in yer house?"

"I didn't exactly let him in."

"What do you mean you didn't let him in?"

"Shh Paul! He's just in the next room. Lower yer voice."

"How did you not let him in but yer he's here?"

"Well............"

"What?"

"He sorta took advantage of me while I was supposed to be looking for you. He sorta broke in."

"Why didn't you arrest him? Remember, you have that power. Yer not just a random person."

"I feel like I'm just a random person dealing with 'daddy issues' so to speak."

"Get rid of him. You don't know what else he could be doing. What is the real reason? Why is he here? What does he want from you?"

"If I knew the answer to those questions, we wouldn't be here now would we?"

"John, what does yer gut say?"

John leaned against the wall. "I don't know."

"Yes you do."

"Okay. It's telling me not to trust him."

"Then get rid of him."
