Ch 14
And In The End…She Loves You
2 Weeks Later, Liverpool, 1963
Early Evening
Ringo and Flower, for the first time ever, are having a childish argument in one of the bedrooms while Kay and McCartney relax on the sofa together watching the telly.
"It's not yours anymore! I found it on my porch in my time! It belongs to me!" Phoenix's voice echoes down the hall into the living room. Kaila and Paul try their best to ignore it.
"But it's from my movie, Flower! It should be counted as stolen property, y'know!" Ringo helplessly tries to fight back, but everyone who knows Phoenix knows that she's notorious for never giving in to her opponents.
Paul looks at his girl curiously, watching her expression closely for a breaking point. "Are you-"
"Don't even." Kaila interjects, holding up a hand to silence him.
He chuckles and resumes listening to the fit and starts to stroke her hair. Her once honey blonde color has started to darken since her time here. He's always wondered what it looked like in her natural style, knowing it's only dyed.
George and Sarah walk out of the record store with brand new albums tucked safely under their arms. They smile at one another and dash through the rain to the car for safety.
"Run for your life!" George screams wildly, catching the brunette from behind and twirling her around while she struggles to open her umbrella.
Sarah's laughing leaves her breathless as she finally unhooks the stubborn clasp and soon she and George are protected from the rain. "There we go!"
George's hands find themselves planted lovingly on her waist and he looks down at her with a slight smirk. He wonders what a bird like her could be thinking at a time like this. "What's on your mind, love?" he murmurs.
Her eyes flit around nervously and a small blush creeps up her cheeks. "A lot of things, Georgie." She giggles as he rolls her eyes at the name jokingly.
"If that's your pet name for me, then I'm gonna need one for you too." He grumbles while burrowing his face into her hair, digging the scent.
"We've got enough time for that later." Sarah starts to feel a little cold from the chilling rain. "Can we go home?"
George lifts his head and looks her in the eyes before leaning in to close the gap between them. "Just one more thing." He whispers before kissing her softly on the lips, making Sarah's head spin.
After they part he chuckles, "Do you want to go home now, doll?" he takes her hand and leads her towards the awaiting car.
Sarah's face reddens as she beams up at him. "You can keep me as long as you want!" and George laughs.
Phoenix and Ringo are still fighting when John comes stomping into the living room, looking ill tempered and frustrated. He points at Kaila accusingly. "You," he growls.
"Me," Kay repeats coolly, turning an icy stare on him.
"Shut them up." John states.
Kaila glances sideways at Paul before replying, "And why should I do that, Lennon?" she crosses her arms across her chest and lifts a brow in speculation.
"I can't bloody sleep with their five year old tantrums interuptin'!" his voice grows louder and his nostrils flare angrily.
Kay smirks. "Well, you're enough of a bad arse. Do somethin' about it yerself if it's a problem." Paul snorts with suppressed laughter. John shoots a glare at him.
"She's got a point, y'know." Macca grins up at his friend.
John huffs a sigh and clenches his hands into fists. They start to drain of color. "Look," he exhales with defeat and turns tired eyes on Kaila. "I want to apologize."
Kay pretends to look surprise. "Why, John, whatever for?"
John tries not to retort but makes himself go on. "For being a complete arse towards you… and everyone else." His eyes roll up to the ceiling before meeting hers again. "Forgive me?" he asks, looking sad and sincere.
Kaila grins up at him and jumps up to glomp the Beatle with a hug. "That's all I've ever wanted to hear out of your damn mouth, Lennon." She whispers with a smile. "Of course I forgive you." she releases him from her death grip and John looks absolutely flabbergasted.
"She…hugged me." he mumbles unintelligibly with wide eyes. "Macca, did you-"
Paul smiles and puts a proud arm around Kay. "I did." He replies.
John almost trips on his feet backwards. "Wow." He breathes. "What a bird."
"Before he tries to attack my face and see what I'll do then, we should probably see what Flower and Ringo are going on about." Kaila suggests quickly, having second thoughts of what she's done. Grabbing Paul by the arm she drags him along. John follows silently behind.
"I'll trade you this one for it!" Ringo pleads, almost close to tears as he tries to persuade Phoenix to give back his ruby red ring from Help!
"Not happening. You might as well stop trying, Ringo; I'm not giving it up!"
"But Flower!"
"I said no, Richard Starkey!"
"What's all this?" Kaila demands while striding into the room with Paul and John closely behind. "What are you two love birds arguing about that's so important enough to wake Lennon up?" she crosses her arms.
Ringo waves up at John from his position sitting on the floor Indian style. "And how was your nap?" he asks happily with a grin.
John narrows his beady eyes. "Sleepless, thanks." He mutters grudgingly.
"The point is," Kaila continues, "is that you guys calm down before George comes home with Sarah! We wouldn't want to embarrass him like that one time last week…" she shudders at the memory.
Paul laughs, "George's face was so red!" he marvels.
"Yeah, like a tomato on acid." John nods with a sly grin.
"How does that even make sense?" Kay looks at Lennon in disgust but shakes her head at him. "Whatever; forget that. Anyway, hand over what you're fighting about and you can carry on with it later." She holds out a palm to Ringo.
"It's not me whose got it!" he pouts, his puppy dog eyes looking sadder than usual.
Kay rolls her eyes and turns to her friend. "Phoe," she sighs.
"No, it's mine! You know that!" Flower scoots away from her on the floor.
There's a sound in the living room of the front door opening. "We're back, everyone! Sarah's with me too!" George's voice rings through the apartment and everyone stops what they're doing fast.
"C'mon, you're embarrassing yourself!" Kaila hisses, making a grab for the ring in Phoenix's hand. "Just hand it over for awhile!"
"Hurry, they're coming!" Paul whispers, taking guard at the door. John ducks behind the door frame and Ringo wonders if they're supposed to be playing hide and seek.
Phoenix and Kaila continue to fight silently over the ring while George and Sarah chatter their way to George's room, thinking they have the apartment to themselves for the evening. John and Paul try to close the bedroom door in time, but George catches it.
"Now whose in here?" he asks, widening the door open and taking in the scene. Phoenix and Kay pay no mind to him and Sarah widens her eyes at the spectacle.
"Is everything all-"
Phoenix sees Kay's finger hit a button beneath the gem of the ring and she screams, "Wait! No, don't press that!"
"Hey, what's going on?" Paul shouts as the girls' color start to fade to a dull grey. "Kaila, what's happening to you?" he rushes to her side and grasps her face into his shaking hands.
Sarah shrieks, "They're dissolving!"
"What d'we do?" George panics.
"FLOWER!" Ringo wails, flinging himself at her, but he feels nothing but cold air. Her body is barely visible. She and Kay are like chameleons; blending in with their surroundings and turning translucent.
Kaila's screaming, but nothing comes out. Paul! Paul, stay with me! He reads her lips and nods in understanding, feeling her touch disappearing from his grip. Tears spill from his eyes as he screams at her not to leave him alone. Her face is still faintly visible and he tries to remember every detail of those green eyes.
"John!" George hollers. "Help us out here, man!" he turns to his band mate helplessly.
"I can't." a very pale John Lennon states hoarsely. "Nobody can."
"PHOENIX, I'M SORRY! PLEASE- NO!" Ringo's voice splits with unimaginable grief as the only girl he's truly loved vanishes without a trace.
Paul McCartney is silent after Kay's very last words leave her mute lips: I love you.
And from then on, nothing is the same.
