And... for a treat for this taking so long HERE'S A GEORGE POV! :)
Helter Skelter
I smiled to myself skipping along the cracked sidewalk. Today was unusually warm for Liverpool and despite the heat I still wore my regular ted look. I kept checking my breath as I got closer to the meeting place for my date with Layla. Everything was going to be perfect and I'd show her how much of a gentleman I really was. I smirked having the whole date planned out. She actually said yes!
I turned the corner into a dark alley taking a short cut. Coming out on the other side I began to worry if I was in the right place. It was about mid day and I was sweating slightly despite my effort to smell good. I searched the plaza of people finding the hole-in-the-wall pizzeria and noticed Layla. A smile erupted a crossed my face.
She was dressed in a simple tee shirt with shorts and sandals. Pretty regular but she still looked beautiful. Her hair on the other hand was intricately braided with flowers laced through it. I smiled as she caught my eye and she waved me over a small blush creeping up her pale neck. I checked my breath one more time before approaching her. "Hey I breathed."
"Uh… hi look George I need to tell you somethi-" she started but was interrupted as Ringo came barreling around the corner Lizzy riding on his back both laughing hysterically. John came next cursing at Ringo as Cyn giggled following close behind. And last but not least Paul and Cam came from where the rest were laughing hard. They all came to a stop in front of me. "So to the carnival?" ringo asked as Layla looked shocked. "I hope you don't mind George-" She started but John cut her off batting his eyelashes.
"but I really wanna shag you!" he said in a girly tone as everyone burst into laughter. "No shut up John!" she smiled slightly. "But I thought we could do a group date- and Ringo wanted to go to the carnival-" "Its fine." I turned on my heels cutting her off. I was seething with anger as I spat on the ground turning my head over my shoulder.
"Coming?" I hissed but she didn't seem to notice. "Ya!' she smiled as everyone followed Lizzy still on Ringo's back.
"Over here!" Ringo shouted dragging Layla along the cobble stone with one hand, a cotton candy in the other. He looked like a little kid, I rolled my eyes at him as we all followed. Layla looked at me worried out of the corner of her eye as she tried to lace her fingers with mine. OI wanted to really I did but I was beyond pissed at her.
I pulled away hanging back a bit as she frowned deeply. Huh? What did she just expect me to be ok with all this? I freaking pre paid for the reservations and it was a lot of money I had been saving up! I huffed as Ringo dragged us into a long line. I looked up and smiled slightly at the familiar bends and drops of the fastest, and tallest, roller coaster in all of the UK. Helter Skelter, I smiled.
Layla's POV
Oh. My. God. A rollercoaster! I freaked. I hate rollercoasters! Tears automatically pricked my eyes as I wiped at my face. Don't cry about it I scolded myself. But it's so high…. I took even breaths glancing at Cam who looked worried.
She knew I was afraid of these things but still said nothing nervously looking away. The line got shorter and shorter till only a handful of gushing teenagers like ourselves stood in front of us. I walked to the sign hoping to god above id shrink just a bit… I was beginning to regret my excitement about the height Id gained over the summer.
"your good." A rather annoyed man stated to me rushing me along. I quickly spotted my group by the coaster not realizing I'd lost them. 'Please two to a seat so we can fit as many people as possible. A lady with a fake smile stated. I was shaking as Ringo got in sitting on the hot metal, for it had been sitting in the sun, and pulled Lizzy onto his lap and between his legs. I panicked looking for George. Maybe I could tolerate this if I was with George.
Having him hold me in his arms…. I glanced at Paul who had his arms draped over the back of the seat grinning in the very front. Cam smiled approaching him and that's when I noticed George behind Paul sitting and watching me nonchalantly. His eyes widned as I approached him and Cam and I both gasped as he grabbed her by the hips pulling her onto his lap. "George!" she exclaimed and Paul didn't seem to notice.
George ignored her looking anywhere but her. No I couldn't sit in the front that's the worst place! The only open seat was in the back as I walked to it terrified.
I could feel several eyes on my back as I passed everyone including Cyn and John in the same position as everyone else. I wiped away a loose tear of fear. (A/N tear of fear... haha sorry) The hot metal burned my legs as I gripped the bar tightly as the attendant checked our bars before signaling for the coaster to move. We began deathly slow.
The majority as I could see at least, was after…. The drop. I cringed crying quietly now as we slowly were pulled up to the drop. It seemed as if we were there for a good ten minutes and we were only half way up! Though I know it had only been a minute or so. We approached the top and the last thing I saw was George turning and staring at me over his shoulder. Then we fell.
Paul's POV
I held my hands up wooping in terror and excitement. This was so fun! I laughed loudly before dropping my hands at the end of the drop raising an eyebrow as I heard sobbing. It came from behind me and I turned and laughed a little as I saw Layla holding on for dear life in the back sobbing her eyes out. I was a bit surprised when I realized how scared she was….
Well and the fact that I could so easily observe her when we were going this fast. George motioned for me to turn around grinning as we came to another drop. I glared at him and jerked my head at Layla. He turned around in his seat holding onto Cam with one hand- Hey! Cam why didn't she sit with me? I thought puzzled. Oh well I watched as George's eyes widened and we dropped again.
Ya sorry this was such a tacky chapter but regardless I can't update unless you guys review.
