Scott was dismissed from the hospital after staying for one night. I slept right by his side the whole night. I can't just leave the lad in here by himself, that isn't right.. He probably did the same for me.
Mum offered to take Scott home. Even if his parents said no, Scott went home with us either way. His parents weren't very happy for what my dad did. I explained to them what happened. They were disappointed we had sex, but they weren't going to punish us...Since my dad did that for them anyway.
Mum drove down our street. I took one look at our house and knew that John and Yoko left.
Scott rubbed my back, "It's okay, Jules.. " He whispered.
Scott knew how hard this was gonna be on me, not having my dad around again. But just like the last time, I'll get through it.
Mum stopped the car in the middle of the street, so Scott could get out of the car and limp back to his house.
"Are you sure you don't need help, Scott?" Mum sweetly asked.
"No thanks, Mum. I've got it" Scott winked at mum.
Scott has known mum as long as I have. They know each other so much that she lets him call her mum. It's a lovely relationship. Scott's parents don't hate me either. They like to think of me as my own. But they don't approve of all my actions, though I'm just like Scott in many ways.
"Ya don't h've to come over later, Scott. I'll come to ya.. Or ya can call me" I let a little smile escape.
Scott smiled with his toothy grin at me, "Alright. Love ya" Scott kissed my lips before he got out of the car slowly.
"I love ya too" I softly said, feeling embarrassed just to say that in front of my mum.
Mum smiled widely at me as Scott went inside his house.
"Oh, come off of it, mum.." I mumbled.
Mum just giggled.
Mum drove the car up the driveway. She walked ahead of me, I took my time walking in the house. I just kept thinking about how quiet it's going to be without Yoko and Dad. There won't be fighting, there will be peace.. But a bit of love will be missing.
"Are you coming, love?" Mum asked.
"Yeah, just feel like walking slow" I said.
Mum slowly nodded as she walked inside the house.
I walked in after her, slowly shutting the front door.
I took a few deep breaths as I slowly made my way down the stairs.
"Wow..." I whispered, feeling a sudden pain in my heart.
They are actually gone..
The room they were staying at was completely empty. Nothing was to be found.
I squinted my eyes, there is a paper on the bed..
I walked into the room and looked at the piece of paper.
Julia,
I'm sorry for the things I've done these two weeks. I never meant to hurt you, Julia. I'll be there for you. Just give me a ring anytime when you're ready to speak or see me again. That record deal is still on when you're ready. I do understand that you love Scott, just be careful. Whatever happens, happens I guess?
Take care of your mum.
Love and Peace,
Dad and Yoko xxxx
I bit my lip, trying to fight back the tears.
God damn it, Julia. Get a hold of yourself.
"Julia?!" Mum called me from upstairs.
I sniffled, wiping my tears away. "Yeah?" I yelled back, trying not to sound like I cried.
"Are you alright?! What are ya doing?" Mum shouted.
"I um... I'm making sure they kept the room neat!" I yelled back.
"Alright, well don't take too long! You've gotta a gig tonight!" Mum shouted.
Now that caught my attention.
I ran up the stairs.
"A gig? Scott didn't tell me we 'ave a gig" I said.
Mum smirked, "He may not be able to play for a few weeks, but he's going to watch from the back. Go on, get ready! The van will be here soon!"
"Oh, u-um okay" I said, walking to my room.
This is so weird! Why the hell would Scott get us a gig when he can't play?
I sighed, changing my clothes.
Two gigs in a row though, that's good. I wonder how long we've had this gig for..
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The van arrived only an hour later.
"Mum, 'ow is Scott gonna get there? It's dangerous for 'im to be in this van." I said.
Mum smiled at me, "I'm going to watch this time, Julia. I'll be taking Scott along." Mum kissed my cheek.
My eyes went a little wide. She's actually going to one of my gigs? That's a first.
"Go on, have fun! Good luck!" Mum smiled at me widely.
"Alright, see ya then."
I hopped into the van.
"Oi, Julia. Where's yer guitar?" Chuck asked me as Steven drove away.
"I'm not playin' on it tonight, Chuck. I'll be playin' yer piano." I said.
Chuck looked at me oddly, "What? What will I do?"
I smirked, "You'll be keeping Scott company backstage. It's just this one time, Chuck. Come on" I said.
Chuck sighed, "Alright, but just once." He said.
I smiled, "Thank ya"
"Are ya gonna party after then, Jules?" Steven asked me.
I slowly shook my head, "Not tonight."
Chuck looked at me oddly, "This isn't like ya. Are ya alright?" Chuck placed on hand on my forehead.
"I don't feel a fever..." Chuck said.
I smirked again, "It's been a rough week, Chuck. So let me be." I gently said.
Chuck slowly nodded, "Alright."
I turned to Steven, " 'Ey, Steven. 'Ow's ya and Sydney?" I nudged Steven.
Steven sighed, "Ah... Well, about that.."
I raised an eyebrow.
"She's pregnant" Chuck said.
I gasped, "Oh my god, Steven!!" I squealed.
"She did bang ya like yer drums! Oh I told ya!!" I said.
Chuck laughed.
"Oh, sod off, Julia! Yer gonna be the same way! We all know!" Steven said.
I smirked, "Maybe, maybe not!"
"What are ya two gonna do about it?" I softly asked.
"I don't know... I'm not ready to be a dad. I'm only nineteen.." Steven groaned.
I hit Steven's arm, "Come on, ya can't leave 'er!"
Steven glared at me for a moment, "I never said I was gonna leave 'er, but I'm not getting married."
Steven sternly said.
I smirked, rolling my eyes. "One day... Ya two will 'ave tons of kids and be married. You'll see!"
"Oh, stop telling me about Scott and yer future!" Steven said.
I chuckled, "I can keep 'er company if ya'd like. Girl and girl time." I shrugged.
Chuck looked at me oddly, "Are ya sure ya can handle girl hormones? I mean.. I don't want ya to beat the baby outta 'er"
I whacked Chuck's arm, "I can 'andle it, Chuck. Ya watch."
Steven smirked, "Alright. I'll tell Syn then."
I smiled, "Thanks, Steven."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I'm gonna sing something slow tonight" I told Scott and Chuck.
"Whatever ya sing, it'll be like an angel" Scott said.
I smirked, "We'll see..."
I leaned down and kissed Scott's lips.
Scott smiled at me, "Yer gonna do gear, love." Scott said.
"Alright, love birds enough! We already 'ave Syd pregnant, we don't need 'er too!" Chuck said.
I felt my face heat up.
"Sydney's pregnant?!" Scott said.
"He can explain that to ya after the show" I said, leaving back stage.
I entered the stage and walked up to Steven.
I whispered in his ear what song to play.
Steven nodded at me.
I turned around and walked up to the microphone, the crowd cheered.
I smiled, "Tonight we're gonna take things a little slow..." I said, letting my voice echo.
I walked over to the piano and placed the microphone on it's stand.
"I'd like to dedicate this song to my father. This is actually one of his own songs. This is Mother." I looked around in the audience.
He really isn't here..
I turned to Steven as he lifted his drumsticks up, hitting them to the beat.
"1.....2......3......4...."
I played on my piano feeling it all.
Mother, You had Me I never had you
I wanted you but you didn't want me
So I got to tell you
Goodbye , Goodbye
I looked to the crowd. Mum looked at me with pain, but I knew she understood me.
Father, You left me but I never left you
I looked through the crowd, hoping to find my father somewhere.
But he really did leave.
I needed you but you didn't need me
So I just got to tell you
Goodbye , Goodbye
Children, Don't do what I have done
I couldn't walk so I tried to run
So I got to tell you
Goodbye , Goodbye
Mama, don't go!
Daddy, come home!
Mama, don't go!
Daddy, come home!
Mama, don't go!
Daddy, come home!
I practically screamed out,
Mama, don't go!!!
Daddy, come home!
Mama, don't go!!!!
Daddy, come home!!
We played our last chord as the crowd cheered.
"Thank ya" I said through the microphone, before getting up and walking off the stage.
I walked off the stage, wiping my tears.
"That was beautiful, Julia" Scott cooed.
I didn't say anything, I walked over to him and hugged him gently.
"I wish ya weren't broken.." I gently cried.
Scott chuckled, "I do to. I want to hug you tightly, but it 'urts."
I smirked.
I saw Mum walk backstage.
"Julia... I didn't know you were feeling like that.." Mum gently said.
I let go of Scott, "A lot has happened in just a few days, mum." I shrugged.
Mum sighed as she rushed over to me and hugged me.
"I'm so sorry we brought you so much pain.. You don't deserve that, sweetie." Mum started to cry.
I hugged her tightly, "Mum, it's not yer fault. I'm only in pain from this week. I'll get over it..."
"Your father loves you, you know.." Mum reminded me.
I sighed, "I know, mum.."
I know.
