Real Love
Dhani Harrison woke up one morning a sighed. He got out of bed and went to get something to eat. He grabbed a banana before walking back upstairs to change clothes. He was usually the first one awake at his house, unless his father, George had to be at EMI really early.
After he finished his banana and was dressed he went out. He didn't know where he was planning to go, but he ended up at Paul McCartney's house. He smiled to himself. Joey would be awake by now.
Joey was Paul's adopted daughter and Dhani had a rather big crush on her. He knocked on the door and Bailey, Paul's wife answered. She smiled at Dhani and let him in saying Joey was upstairs still asleep and that he could go and waked her up if he wanted to.
Dhani grinned a very lop-sided, George Harrison esque grin before bounding up to Joey's room. He pounded on the door and walked in. Joey sat up and rubbed her eyes, "Dhani what are you doing here?" she knew about his crush on her and tried not to hurt his feelings when she didn't return them.
"Bailey said to come and wake you up." he shrugged and threw a pillow at her. She groaned.
"I know that, Harrison, I meant at my house." she moaned. He snickered.
"I dunno I was bored and ended up here." he shrugged as she got out of bed. She walked out of the room to be met with Paul. She pounced on him like she was a child and he laughed.
"Morning Daddy." she yawned. He kissed her hair.
"Morning Joey." Paul responded. The three of them walked downstairs where Bailey had made breakfast. Dhani didn't eat anything but he sat and talked for a while. He tried to get Joey to go out with him before he left and when she said no every time, he didn't let his disappointment show through.
He went back home after that and he found Lily was in the living room with Prudence, John and Cynthia's Youngest daughter. She was a year younger than Dhani and Lily, and Lily knew something about her that Dhani didn't.
According to what Prudence told her, she had a brilliant crush on Dhani, but was too scared to tell him because of his crush on Joey.
"Pru, why don't you tell Dhani now?" she asked slyly. Dhani stopped and looked at the two girls.
"tell me what?" he asked looking confused. Prudence looked clueless to Dhani so he walked off. He went into the music room and picked up the shiny red gibson guitar that he knew his father had given to Teddy, his mum, before she disappeared. He sighed as he played it.
He liked the way it sounded, and it was probably his favorite out of all the guitars he and his father owned. He started to sing the song George wrote for Teddy one year for her birthday. It was called Beautiful Girl. Lily really liked to sing it, but Dhani didn't like it for the gooshy words. He liked it for the guitar in it.
As he finished the song he took in a deep breath and let it flood back out. He always missed his mother, but for some reason he missed her now more than anything.
"You OK, Dhani?" Prudence asked coming to sit down next to him on the couch that was placed up against the wall. He looked at her and nodded.
See in Dhani's life he'd grown up with Lily as his sister; obviously, Bridget as his and Lily's cousin, and the others as friends, even though they were all close enough to be cousins and all the kids of the Beatles called them Uncle whoever. Julian, Joey and Bridget were best friends and Prudence was Lily and Dhani's best friend. She was the one at their house the most and Dhani and Lily spent a great deal of time over at her house. They all as a group got along fine, it was just that Prudence always liked Lily and Dhani as friends more than Bridget and Joey. Julian was her brother so she didn't hang out with him most of the time unless Dhani and Lily were at the Lennon's house and Julian happened to be there.
"Joey was here just a few minutes ago." Prudence said biting her lip. Dhani shrugged. He'd been turned down by her countless times, so he decided to give up.
"I don't care all that much." he said. It never occurred to him how thick his scouse was until he spoke to Prudence, who had worked hard not to have a scouse. She slipped into it every now and then.
"Well why not? I thought you liked her?" Prudence said frowning. Dhani shrugged again and looked down at his mum's guitar.
"I dunno, she doesn't like me anyway. THere's really no point in trying right?" he gave a little chuckle to hide how much it hurt to say that.
"Oh, well she doesn't know what she's missing anyway." She said rolling her eyes, trying to cheer him up. She was good at that. She's known him long enough to know what to say to make him smile. She adjusted her glasses and sniffled. Dhani found that quite cute for some reason and giggled a little.
"So, what was it that you wanted to tell me when I got home?" he asked, almost sure that Lily was just trying to pick on the poor girl. Prudence shrugged and sighed dramatically before leaning her head against Dhani's shoulder.
"Oh Dhani!" She said, "I just don't know what to do!" she said sounding like a distressed princess that usually got whatever she wanted.
"What can I do to help you!?" Dhani said playing along. He put the guitar in his lap aside and stood up and took her hands in his.
"I don't know!" She said putting her forehead against his chest. they both suddenly started laughing and didn't stop for a good ten minutes.
"See now you're happy again." Prudence said as they were lying on the floor after falling over from laughing so hard. Dhani turned over on his stomach and positioned himself over Prudence's face. She smiled up at him and he smiled back.
"OK, so what do we do now?" he asked biting his lip.
"We go and make out in the corner." Prudence said quite seriously as she sat up. Dhani's heart fluttered a little for a reason he didn't really want to think about, and he thought she was being serious until she giggled.
"Jeez, Dhani, I was kidding," she said, "You look like I just hit you in the face." Dhani chuckled nervously and got up when he and Prudence heard the front door open then shut again.
"Dhani! Lily! I'm home!" George called. Dhani and Prudence went to greet Dhani's father before going back to the living room.
They were talking and giggling when George came storming in the room, clearly mad about something.
"Dhani Harrison, how many times have I told you to put guitars away when you're finished with them?" he said firmly. He shoved the guitar Dhani had been playing at him and Dhani gulped.
George was usually the kind of dad that let you go out and do what you wanted as long as you were back by curfew and didn't get into any trouble. When he got mad, you did not want to be on the receiving end of it.
"I'm sorry, Dad, I was talking to Prudence and forgot to put it away." Dhani said, holding onto the red gibson that they both loved so much. He knew if he was going to leave a guitar out that it should never ever be this one.
"Go and put it away." George had calmed down a little when he noticed Prudence was sitting on the couch trying not to be seen. Dhani nodded and left the room to put the guitar away. George sighed and sat down on the couch. He buried his face in his hands and bit his lip.
"You OK, George?" Prudence asked. she never went for the whole "Uncle George" thing. He glanced up at her.
"Oh, yeah I'm fine, Pru," he said, "What's the date?"
"Um, July something," she said, "I don't really remember." George sighed. It was nearly Dhani and Lily's 18th birthday and he needed to get them something.
After that he got up and left the room as Dhani came back. He sat down next to Prudence and huffed.
"He wouldn't have been on me about the guitars if it wasn't that one." he mumbled. Prudence frowned.
"What's so special about that one?" she asked leaning over against him. He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her closer than he'd ever pulled her for some reason. She didn't protest.
Dhani sighed, "That one was the one he gave my mum one the last birthday she had with him." he said sadly. Prudence bit her lip. She never could figure out what to say when Dhani or Lily were upset about their Mother.
"I'm sorry he yelled at you." she said quietly. She pecked his cheek and he blushed. She always wondered why he got so shy when he got any sort of girl attention.
"It's not your fault so don't apologize." he said trying not to grin. She laughed at him and shoved his shoulder.
She sighed suddenly and Dhani frowned.
"I'm bored." she said rolling her eyes. Dhani swears most of the time she should be a broadway actress or something; she was good at being dramatic. He laughed and shoved her away.
"I want to do something!" she moaned putted her face back in his shoulder. He laughed again.
"And do you always get everything you want?" he asked teasingly. She looked at him and scoffed.
"Do you know who my father is?" she asked cocking an eyebrow, "Of course I get everything I want."
"Brat." he giggled. She twisted her face at him.
"Am not!" she argued. He nodded.
"I am not!" she yelled at him. They both stood up and scowled at each other.
"Yes you are!"
"No!"
"Yes!"
"No!"
"Yes, Prudence Lennon is a spoiled brat!" Dhani said firmly, "She gets everything she wants no matter what it is!"
"I do not, Dhani!" she said stomping her foot. She crossed her arms over her chest and pouted, "I don't have everything I ever wanted."
"Oh?" he asked cocking an eyebrow at her, "And what don't you have?" They were standing nose to nose by this point and neither of them noticed it until those words were out of Dhani's mouth. She suddenly didn't have to tell him what she wanted that she didn't have, because it was clear to him now. He looked at her for a long time, and to anyone walking bay the room it would look like they were having a very intense staring contest. Neither of them blinked and Dhani was trying to decide what to do in his situation.
Little did either of them know that John had just showed up to pick up Prudence, or that George was standing just outside the doorway to the living room spying on them. John stopped next to George and cocked an eyebrow at him. George put his finger to his lips and pointed to Prudence and Dhani who were still nose to nose. John crossed his arms over his chest and narrowed his eyes at the two.
Dhani licked his lips quickly and Prudence gulped. They were both getting nervous. Dhani fixed her crooked glasses that had ended up that way from the little tantrum she'd just thrown. His hand trailed down her face and stopped on her cheek.
"Dhani, I-" she was cut off by the most glorious feeling of his lips against hers. He'd finally made up his mind on what to do and he's pulled her into him and slammed his lips against hers before she could say anything and before he lost his nerve.
Prudence kissed him back and they stood there kissing while George and John stood just outside the door with their mouths hanging wide open. They were clearly shocked.
Dhani and Prudence pulled apart slowly and Dhani cleared his throat nervously.
"I was just gonna say that I liked you and that was what Lily was trying to get me to tell you earlier." Prudence said, slightly wide eyed. Dhani chuckled and kissed her again.
That was when John decided to intervene.
"M'kay that's enough of that." he said jerking Dhani back from his daughter. Prudence blushed as George entered the room, applauding his son. John glared at him, but George was proud that Dhani was brave enough to actually kiss her.
"Your mother wants you home, Pru." John said giving Dhani a stern look, "You can snog Dhani some other time." Dhani blushed madly as John started to pulled Prudence away. He grabbed her hand and kissed her just to get at John a little.
"Bye Pru," he said grinning. She grinned back and pecked his cheek before letting her father pull her away. George laughed.
"Good job Dhani." he said clapping him on the shoulder, "I was a little worried you blew there for a second."
"I didn't know I was gonna do that until after I did it." Dhani said, slightly shocked he did do it. George laughed and shook his head.
So, Dhani had a good day. He found out that Prudence liked him and he also found out how much he liked her. He also learned where his father was standing with John the whole time all that went on. He embarrassed slightly after finding that part out.
