I Know What It's Like To Be Dead | Beatles Fanfiction

Chapter 5

I got up and looked in the mirror. I still looked the same. Long brown hair, hazel eyes.
I looked at what I was wearing and I smiled. I always loved 50s fashion.

I decided to go downstairs and meet my parents.

I took a deep breath and went downstairs. I noticed the house was rather big, maybe we were rich?
I saw a woman and a man sitting on a sofa, the woman was reading a book, the man was reading the newspaper while the radio played on the background.

"Mum, dad?" They looked up and smiled. "What is it, love?" my father asked, lowering his paper. He didn't look like my previous dad, at all. Neither did my mum.
They looked a lot softer. I walked over to them and hugged them.

"Nothing, I just wanted to tell you both that I love you."

Mum raised an eyebrow "What do you need from us, Alexandra?" She said jokingly. "Nothing!" I said laughing. They laughed and returned to reading.
I walked over to the kitchen and took a glass of water and looked around.

I put my glass in the sink and went back to the living room where my parents were.
"Mum, dad, can I go out for a little while? I'd like to take a walk."

Dad looked up and said "Of course, do you mind taking the dog with you?"

The dog? We have a dog? "I don't mind at all! where is it?"
Mum flipped another page in her book "probably in our room, sleeping."

I nodded and ran upstairs, and saw a little dog lying in a basket on the floor. It was still a puppy!

As soon as the dog heard me he got up and ran towards me, jumping up and down.
I laughed. "Let's see what your name is" I whispered. I saw he had a name tag, I picked him up and looked at the name tag.

"Midnight"

I smiled. I guess it's a girl then. I went downstairs with the puppy in my arms. I took the leash of the kitchen table and connected it to a little hook on his collar.

I put on my coat and scarf, and I was out the door.
Midnight walked next to me and sniffled around sometimes. I decided I'd go to the park.

I stopped walking all of the sudden. "How do I know where the park is?" I thought. It was very strange, I knew where to go to, but I had never been in Liverpool before.
I just shrugged it off and went to wherever my legs were taking me.

I got to the park and walked Midnight around.

I started making my way towards the old building in the middle of the park, when I heard noises from around the corner.
It sounded like someone.. crying? I frowned and took a few steps back from the building, and turned around.
I decided to hide in the bushes and made my way around the building to see what was going on.

I pushed some bushes to the side and saw what I never even wanted to see.

There he was, a young John Lennon, pressing a girl against the wall while his hand was under her skirt.
