She's Leaving Home - Paul McCartney x Reader

21

I wake up entangled in John's arms and I feel secure. I smile as I turn to face him, and I'm surprised to see him smiling back; he's not asleep as Paul normally is when I wake up.

'Morning, Nance'

'Morning, John'

I smile back at him, and we remain there for a few minutes before, unexpectedly, John clasps his hands together,

'Right'

I look at him- confused,

'Right, What?'

'Let's go'

John's pulling on a top and taking off his pyjama bottoms to put jeans on, I laugh at his urgency,

'Go where?'

He's facing the mirror ruffling his hair about to make himself look presentable, and he turns to me suddenly, sighing with his hands on his hips,

'Out'

He grabs my hand from under the duvet and pulls me up. He leads me out of the room,

'I can't go out like this John, I've only got your top on'

He wiggles his eyebrows,

'Well I'm not complaining'

'John!'

We walk into the living room towards the front door; both of us laughing and my eyes settle on Paul. He's never normally up this early, so to see him awake watching TV is quite a shock to me. He looks up at us with big, sad eyes.

'You two going out?'

Surprisingly, John grabs my hand. Paul notices and winces, then looks back up to me in a flash. I open my mouth to speak but John steps in first,

'Yes; we are'

Paul looks to me,

'I thought we were going to go to the cinema, Nance?'

Oh yeah. I did promise to go to the cinema with Paul. I look to John,

'I did say I'd go out with Paul today, John'

John face flashes with annoyance quickly but it passes and he pretends to be unbothered,

'Okay; we'll go out tomorrow, yeah?'

'I have class but I'll see what I can do'

John nods and heads back to his room, slumping slightly. Paul walks over to me, I can't bear to look at him so I look to the floor.

'Nance?'

I feel his soft hands under my chin as he lifts it so I'm looking at him. His eyes are sincere and loving; so easy to get lost in.

'I'm sorry for getting angry with you, I know that this situation isn't your fault'

I smile at him as his finger brushes my cheek.

'I'm sorry, Paul. For everything that's going on'

'Please don't apologise, love. None of this was meant to happen'

I nod slowly, and he pulls me in for a sweet kiss. After our kiss he pulls me close and we stand there in a warm embrace for a few moments. I know it hasn't been ages; but I've longed to feel his touch again.

When he pulled away, he tucked a few stray strands of hair behind my ear. He tilts his
head; examining my face. I laugh slightly,

'What are you doing'

He shakes his head; sighing,

'I love you Nancy'

My jaw drops and I open my mouth to speak but nothing comes out,

'You- love me?'

He nods firmly,

'Yes, Nancy Everett, I love you'

I kiss him,

'I love you too, James'

He smiles and lifts me off the ground; embracing me again.

'Well let's get you back to the university so you can change, eh?'

I nod,

'That sounds amazing'

A/N: this is short but I need to post and I haven't thought of where I want to take this so excuse me for a couple of days if I don't upload!
