Strange Magic Chapter 13
He WHAT? No, this couldn't be happening. Leave it John Lennon to leave me confused on my birthday. "John, shut the hell up. You don't know what you're talking about."
John grabbed my hands. "But I do! Audrey, you're the one for me!"
"NO! John, you have a wife! And I love Ringo! Don't get it crossed okay?" I spat.
"So you don't feel the same for me?" John furrowed his eyebrows.
"Maybe I do and maybe I don't, but I'm not going to leave Ringo, okay? So just deal with it, and get over yourself!" I rip the necklace off my throat and threw it at him. How DARE he think that I would just leave Ringo for him?
"Is everything okay?" George asked, as I re-entered my living room.
"Yeah, everything is fine." I responded with a smile. But was it? I don't really know how I feel anymore. John's words wouldn't escape my mind. "You're the one for me" is what he had said. Do I believe it? For all I know, he could have said that to Cynthia and now look what he was doing. I shook the thoughts out of my head and focused on the rest of my friends. "What are we doing next?"
"We're going on an adventure!" Paul yelled, jumping off of my chair.
"Wait, where are we going, fellas?" John called.
"To the top, Johnny!" They responded.
"The top of what, fellas!"
"The toppermost of the poppermost!" They all yelled in unison and pulled me out of my front door. I was immediately pushed into a carriage that was not hitched to anything.
"You guys are idiots. It's not going to go anywhere." I rolled my eyes. Paul raised an eyebrow and snapped his fingers. John and George ran to the front of the carriage and grabbed into the wooden railings attached to the cart.
"Ready!" Paul called. "MUSH!" John and George pulled and Ringo, Paul and I sat back and relaxed watching them huff and puff all the way to the biggest park in Liverpool.
Ringo grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the carriage. He quickly put his hands over my eyes and led me towards the park.
"I don't like surprises. Tell me what's happening!" I say impatiently.
"Audrey, baby, relax!" Ringo's voice rang through my ears. "Have I given you a reason to not trust me?" I shook my head and he just continued walking me to our destination.
When he finally let go of my face, my eyes adjusted on a giant horse. "Oh, my God, I feel like Cinderella!" I yelled and ran towards the horse.
Paul grabbed my waist and helped me get onto the steed. It was giant and white, something that I've always dreamed of riding.
"Thanks, you guys." I smiled at all of the boys. "You made this my best birthday ever."
"You're welcome, Audrey." Paul said, patting my leg.
"It's only cause we love you." John winked. Shivers ran up my spine. Why now? Why today!
