"ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE"

"But love won't put a roof over your head or food on your table." the boys parents retorted.

"You guys just don't get me do you?" He replied. "I don't want the kind of life you want for me I don't care about having all sorts of expensive things!"

"But think of what your image will look like." his parents pleaded with him.

"I don't care, I hate you" the boy yelled at his parents. He turned on his heels and stormed out of the front door of their house. As he was walking down the brightly lit road a song slowly tickled into his head….

"Paper back writer
Dear Sir or Madam, will you read my book?
It took me years to write, will you take a look?
It's based on a novel by a man named Lear
And I need a job, so I want to be a paperback writer,
Paperback writer.

It's the dirty story of a dirty man
And his clinging wife doesn't understand.
His son is working for the Daily Mail,
It's a steady job but he wants to be a paperback writer,
Paperback writer.

Paperback writer

It's a thousand pages, give or take a few,
I'll be writing more in a week or two.
I can make it longer if you like the style,
I can change it round and I want to be a paperback writer,
Paperback writer.

If you really like it you can have the rights,
It could make a million for you overnight.
If you must return it, you can send it here
But I need a break and I want to be a paperback writer,
Paperback writer.

Paperback writer

Paperback writer - paperback writer
Paperback writer - paperback writer"

"And it looks like it's goanna be another sunny and hot day today for New York, it looks like we are still getting hit by this early June heat wave, and there looks like there is no end in site! Now we go to Pete Best for a look at Traffic, Pete?"

Jimmy groaned. He realised that he had been dreaming and that his alarm had gone off and had crept into his dream. He was glad that he decided to put his alarm to the radio instead of the buzzer; he enjoyed waking up to music instead of an annoying electronic buzz.

He rolled out of bed and headed to the washroom to get ready for the day. He looked at himself in the mirror. He was the spiting image of his father, tall and skinny with long black hair that at the moment was very messy and dishevelled. He even had a bit of his father's accent hidden deep under his thick New York accent. However he had his mothers brilliantly blue eyes. Something else he had gotten from his father was an artistic talent, although unlike his father his medium was not paint or charcoal it was writing. Jimmy loved the write stories and was a great story teller from a young age. In grade school he would captivate his entire class by telling them stories that he had invented. Jimmy desperately wanted to be a published author but as of late he hadn't had a great idea for a story, sure he had written some things here and there but nothing very long and nothing very great either.

After washing up and getting dressed he headed to the kitchen to get some breakfast before he headed off to school. As he walked out of the dark hallway and into the brightly lit living room of the apartment he noticed his mother Lucy sitting at he kitchen table drinking a cup of coffee and reading the paper. The sun light lit up her golden blond hair and it seemed almost to make her glow.

"Hey sweetie how was your sleep" She asked as he came stumbling into the room.

"Not bad" he responded as he grabbed himself a bowl and poured some Cap'n Crunch into it. He loved Cap'n Crunch, his uncle max had gotten him hooked on it one time when he was younger and max had been left in charge of looking after him. He enjoyed it because it brought back all the good memories from his child hood.

"Where's dad" Jimmy asked as he finished the cereal and put his bowl into the sink.

"He is in his studio, working" Lucy informed him "Have a good day at school"

Jimmy decided that he would poke his head in and see what his father was up to before he left for school, he wanted to see if his father had any tips on getting through his creative block. Jimmy had always been inspired by his fathers work and several of his stories were based off of Jude's paintings. Jimmy quietly opened the door to the studio and poked his head in. he could see his father standing in front of a large blank canvas just staring at it. Jimmy decided that is was best not to interrupt the creative flow and slowly shut the door and headed out for school.

Jimmy always enjoyed the walk to school, it wasn't that far from his apartment and he enjoyed watching the hustle and bustle of the street, it always seemed as if something was going on. He especially enjoyed watching the people moving quickly around and inventing little sorties in his head about who these people where, and where they were going, and what they may be up to.

Once he got to school, Jimmy headed straight for his locker so he could get rid of his heavy bag. As he was walking down the halls he heard some one yell his name and turned around to see who it was. It was his girlfriend Julia; she was tall and slender and had brilliantly blond hair just like Lucy and deep green eyes she carried a clipboard with several papers it.

"Hi Jimmy" she said giving him a big hug "You have to sign my petition, please" she pleaded with him. It seemed to Jimmy that Julia was fighting for some new cause just about every week. Last week it had been about saving whales, the week before it had been about some government policy on something or another, there had been so many that he had lost count. Julia claimed that she was just a caring person and wanted to help out as much as she could, however Jimmy new that she was just fighting for what ever movement was popular at the moment, and next week shed be on about some other cause. This week it was about another Government policy, he didn't really know because he hadn't been listing to Julia as she was talking to him about the petition.

"So will you sign it?" She asked him as he popped out of his daze

"Sure thing love" he sighed, he lazily scribbled his name down. "You want to go to the park after school?" he asked her"

"Sure thing that would be great" she said excitedly. "See you after school" she hugged him again and ran off down the hallway, to gather more signatures no doubt. Jimmy just shook his head.

The bell rang and Jimmy headed off to class with his fellow classmates. He was looking forward to heading to the park after school, he was always able to find some inspiration there, and hopefully with Julia there to enjoy it with him he would no doubt get his muse back. He sighed as he realized he still had to get through the entire day of school, as task he was not looking forward to, especially since he did not have his favourite class, English, today. He sighed as he walked into Grade 12 chemistry and the rest of a boring day.
