Hello! I know I didn't make an a/n in the prologue or whatever the hell that was, but Hi! My name is Sophia and this is my second fanfic. My first one is Across The Universe: A Wrinkle Back in Time, so if you like this, you may want to check that out as well! Without further adu, here is the official first chapter! Disclaimer: No.
John's POV
There used to be a time in my life where I wouldn't even have to think about walking out of the damn door. Okay, maybe I did a little prepping here and there, but not a soul, besides the occasional school girl or tight old bat, even noticed me. Now, the second my foot hits the fucking pavement, there's a crowd of horny teenaged maniacs waiting to kidnap me or any of the fellows. There are days when I wonder why we decided to live this life, and then I remember all the time spent with my lads building our musical careers. Wouldn't want that to go to waste, ay?
Cool, fresh air hit my disguised face. Today I had decided on a goatee with an early 1900's mustache, covering my head in a Charlie Chaplin like cap. The boys followed me closely, like a pack of dogs looking for prey. Only instead of being the hunters, we were the hunted.
"What's the matter John, luv?" George's hushed voice asks.
Looking over at him, I smirk and say, "I'm surrounded by a bunch of uglies, that's what."
We all crack up and walk down the dark New York streets.
"Wonder if there'll be any girls tonight." Paul states absentmindedly, checking out a club.
"Girls?" Ringo looks up from the ground and grins like mad man.
After another laugh, I get bored and start kicking around a bottle. Ringo shouts, "I'M OPEN, I'M OPEN!" Passing it to George, we begin a game of Monkey in the Middle with our favorite monkey.
"Cmon, lads, lemme kick it!" Rings wines loudly.
"Ah, give the poor soul a break, e's already got that 'uge thing on 'is face." Paul jokes as Ringo gives him a death glare.
Suddenly, Brian is running towards us.
"What do you think you are doing? Get back to the hotel!" He pants loudly.
"Fine, ya bloody arse." I mutter under my breath.
"What was that, Lennon?" he snaps back.
"Nothing, Brian, just saying how wonderfully Jewy you look today!" I say in my best girl voice.
The boys howl with laughter while Brian stares me down. As we walk back to whatever the fuck the place was called, I spot a flash of coppery hair against pale skin. Stopping in my tracks, this enchanting creature swivels in my direction. I can't help but stare at her unique appearance. Her face turns to confusion then to fear as she notices me staring intently at her.
"Can I help you… sir?" she asks in an accent I have never heard before.
"I'm sorry, young lady, but we were just leaving." Brian says as he grabs my arm.
"Brian, shove off, I'll get back by myself." I growl, scaring him slightly.
Nodding his head, he takes the other three away while they give whistle and wag their eyebrows at this new girl.
"You are not from here, are you?" she asks once more, electric blue eyes finding mine.
"Could say the same for you, sweet cheeks." I say, gazing at her scattered freckles.
She lets out a tiny little laugh, nodding at my acknowledgement of her strange accent.
"Yes, you could. I am from a far away land, indeed." Her black coated eyelashes flutter at me.
"Where is this mystical land that such beauties as you hail from?" I lean in closer to her, smelling her sweet perfume.
"Well thank you, sir. I am from Israel. I'd say you were from somewhere in the United Kingdom, am I correct?"
"You're good, Miss…" I began, wanting to know her name.
"Sophia."
"John." I say, extending my hand to cup hers.
There is a moment when she seems to stare into my soul, reading me like a book. For a second, all my insecurities come to fruition and I start to back off.
"Alright then… I guess I'll be going then, luv. May I ask… for your… numer, milady?" I am usually not this nervous, but something about her makes the butterflies in my stomach go mad.
Beaming, she pulls out a note pad and scribbles down her telephone number. As we turn away from each other, I can't help but whisper her name.
Sophia.
Well, I hope you enjoyed that. No, wait, tell me about it! Review please:) Please and thanks, peace n blessins!;)
