John was now tapping his pencil on his desk, trying his best to annoy Paul. It wasn't working. Paul was doing his own thing and was also doing a good job at ignoring him. John started tapping louder as he never took his gaze off of Paul.
Then, he heard a voice from behind him. "Knock it off John. Yer annoying me."
John turned around only to realize it was George who spoke.
"Oh. Sorry. I meant to annoy Paul."
"You didn't apparently."
Paul looked up when he heard his name. "What?"
"You mean to tell me you didn't hear anything that was going on?"
"No. Why? Should I have?"
"Yes!"
"What was going on?"
"John just wanted to annoy you Paul. That's it. Instead, he annoyed me."
"Bravo John. Bravo."
John made a face and turned to George. "I'll kill you."
"What? I didn't do anything."
"Not now you didn't. But later you might."
"Yeh. Later."
"So, John, question for ye." Ringo said.
"Shoot."
"Ever want another partner?"
"Nope." He said without missing a beat.
"Why not?" Paul asked.
"Because I don't need one. I don't need to be training another thief."
"The next one might not be a thief."
"No, but I'm not taking that chance. I'm working alone from now on."
"Think that's wise?"
"I don't care if its wise or not. I'm not going through another one. That was my fourth one I think."
"Okay. Its yer choice."
John nodded, then looked at the time. "Today's going by so slow. We've only been here a couple hours."
"Is that all?"
"Yeh. In a bit, I'm going to drive around, see if I can find some action."
"I think I'll be doing the same thing." George said as he stood up. "See you lot later."
"Be safe Geo."
"I'm not you John. I know what I'm doing."
"Ey. That's insulting. I know what I'm doing too!"
"Prove it." George said walking out.
John growled. "One day............one day."
"One day what?"
"I'm going to glue his lips together."
Paul laughed. "You wouldn't. We need him to sing. Remember?"
"Always have to ruin my fantasy don't ye?"
"That's why I'm here."
John stood up and grabbed his jacket. "Then I'm gone. You and Ringo do what ye want. I'll see ye later."
"Wait a minute John. Partner with me today. My partner is on a two week vacation. Won't be back until January 10th." Paul said.
"Okay. I'll drive. Ringo, are ye going to stay here?"
"Yeh. If I get bored enough, I'll go out."
John nodded and the two left.
*******
Paul and John were driving around town. Nothing had been interesting yet.........that is, until a bullet came flying through the window. John put on the brakes quickly and slowly looked at Paul. "That wasn't you was it?"
Paul had looked at him with the same expression on his face that John had given him. "Uh, no. And it wasn't you?"
"No."
Joh turned his attention to outside the window and someone was at the car window holding a gun.
"Who is this quack?" John asked.
"Beats me."
John rolled down his window. "Yes?"
"Out of the car."
"May I ask why?"
"John, just do it. Yer going to end up dead if you keep talking." Paul whispered as he slowly unbuckled the seat belt and got out of the car. John sighed and followed.
"Okay. What do you want?"
"Yer ride." He said as he got in the car and took off.
John looked at Paul. "Was I just carjacked?"
"Looks that way."
"Okay. Lets get to a payphone so George could pick us up. I need to write a report. I love that car! He won't get far."
