"Ey Georgie!! Wake up you! Or were you so tired you couldn't sleep a wink?" John called, jumping all over his sleeping bandmate's cloud bed.

"Alright I'm up I'm up! Why are you so excited this morning?"

"Don't you know what day it is?"

"Ummmm, the day everyone starts putting up their Christmas decorations despite it not being anwhere close to December?"

The auburn haired guitarist couldn't help but laugh at how deadpan George was being to him. "Heehee, and everyone always thinks you're the quiet, serious member of the group. But no, it's actually the day you came up here! Happy death day Georgie!!"

"Death day?. Sounds like the name of a low budget horror movie."

"Ha! You still got it Hazza, but enough of the dry humor. You got a better name for this day?"

"Umm, how about just oh I don't know.. Uuh, Hazzaday then? Like your nickname for me and holiday mixed together? Sounds a lot better than the creepy death day."

Not waiting to respond, John grabbed his bandmate by the shoulder and carried him downstairs. "Brian, Stu, Maureen and Linda went out to get a few things for ya while I'm in charge of keeping you away from our surprise until it's ready!"

"I thought you weren't supposed to tell someone a sur-"

"Well if I didn't then you'd probably think we all forgot about your dea-I mean Hazzaday. Now where to first Georgie? You wanna go see the gardens here or how about we listen to All Things Must Pass ten times in a row? Since you released that album two days ago and everyone definitely listened to it then. Or we can play all your albums including your live performances and the best of alb-"

"Why are you doing all this? It's just a day, I didn't think it'd be of any significance."

"Well I just thought it would be nice, and so you can see everyone remembering you even maybe twenty years after you passed. If you don't wanna then I can get the others to call off baking that giant cake f-crap I just spoiled the surprise!!"

Now it was George's turn to chuckle at his bandmate. "Nah, let them finish it. I just want to see how Dhani and Livie are doing down there without me. Probably looking up at us right now and wondering if we're having fun up in heaven."

"And also baking you a giant cake to send up here! Or I think so anyways, you did say food wasn't as important to you know as it was when we were in the Beatles, but I know you're all for the goodies still!"

"Oh John, how about we go down and take a stroll around Friar Park? I really missed seeing all the flowers grow and chasing little Dhan through the hedge mazes we got."

"Sounds good to me! Oh, and Geo?"

"Yeah?"

"Happy Hazzaday, and watch out, because we're gonna be planning something even bigger for your birthday!"
