Paul and John looked at each other, then looked at George then they all looked at Lucy.
The silence was broken by Paul, "I shouldn't have dropped the gem!"
"It wasn't your fault, Paul. It was probably some malfunction." Lucy suggested. "Where's the gem now?"
"I'll check." John got up and went to go look for the gem.
John walked upstairs to Paul's room and searched, "Found it!" He yelled picking up the gem and taking it back to where the others were.
Paul and Lucy had carried Adriana and laid her on the couch. John handed the gem to Lucy and she placed it on the coffee table.
"So, what are we meant to do now?" Paul looked down at his fingers.
"That stupid, dumb gem!" John kicked the gem across the room.
"Stop!" Paul held John's shoulders.
"You have to be careful." Paul went and picked the gem up and placed it back on the coffee table.
Lucy went into the bathroom and came back out with a wet rag for Adriana's burning forehead.
Paul, John, George and Lucy sat around and waited for Adriana to become conscious again.
****
"Hello, dear." Paul stroked Adriana's hair as she slowly became conscious.
George smiled down at her.
She opened her eyes slowly, "Are we still in 19..." She yawned.
"1959," Paul corrected, "Yes, we are."
What time is it?" She asked noticing it was dark.
"It's 5:30pm." Paul answered.
"What's your name?" She looked up at George.
"George... Harrison." He offered his hand out to her.
"Hello." She shook his hand.
"How am I going to get home?" A worried look formed on her face as she stared at the two boys.
"You need the gem and you need to play music and to relax." Paul replied.
She looked at him strangely, "How do you know?"
"Lucy was in the same position as you, about a year ago."
"Lucy?" She asked.
"Yes, that girl."
She sat there, just thinking, "Lucy?"
"Yes, why?"
"She was in the same position as me?"
"Yes."
"Oh I know Lucy! Well, not really, I only heard about her on the news." Adriana started.
"On the news?"
"Yeah, people say she got kidnapped. But nobody knows who by," She stated, "There's a big conspiracy around it." She rolled her eyes.
"She's here." Paul said.
Her heart skipped a beat. Her eyes widened and she jolted backwards. Her sudden moves scared Paul so he did the same.
"What is it?!" He stared at her, "You scared me, love!"
"You kidnapped her!" She assumed.
"No, dear," Paul started, "She time travelled then decided to stay here."
She glanced at both of them, jumped to her feet and intended to run when she was restrained. George grasped her arm.
"Calm down, it's okay," George said quietly.
She stared down at George's big hands tightly gripping her arm, she got nervous.
"Calm down." George repeated. His hazel brown eyes staring into hers.
"Okay." Adriana agreed.
George nodded, "Good." He let go.
"Look, I know you must be scared, but, you don't need to. We won't hurt you in any kind of way, please trust us." Paul reassured.
She took some deep breaths and eventually calmed down.
"What's the other boy's name?" Adriana asked.
"John." George answered.
"But... You all look the same, how will I tell you guys apart?" Adriana asked.
Paul and George stared at each other, they studied each other's features.
"We don't look the same..." George stated.
"Anyway... Do you have any siblings?" Paul asked.
"Yeah, my sister." Adriana answered, "Her name's Sabrina. She a year older than me."
"How old are you?" Paul asked.
"I'm 15 so she's 16." She answered.
"Anyway... Lucy said to bring you upstairs so we can return you back to the future when you wake up." Paul said.
"Well... Okay then." Adriana stood up.
The three of them walked up to Paul's bedroom where John and Lucy were. As they walked up the stairs, Adriana spoke.
"Will I be able to get back home?" Adriana looked up at Paul with a sad look on her face.
"Most likely." Paul replied.
"My mum would have loved to be in my position..." Adriana started.
"What makes you say that?" George asked.
"She loves all old things."
"Don't you like old things... Well current day things for us?" George asked.
"Nah." She replied casually.
They got to the bedroom and the three of them walked in. They saw John and Lucy looking at the gem. Adriana was very shy, she grasped Paul's arm and stayed close to him.
"Hello." Lucy walked towards them.
"Hello, Lucy." Adriana greeted.
Lucy smiled. The five of them sat around.
"What's this?" Adriana pointed to a record player in the corner of the room.
"A record player." John answered.
They continued sitting around, John held the gem and inspected it with squinted eyes. He squeezed his teeth.
"You don't understand how much I hate this gem!" He trapped it under his fingers.
"We all do." Paul stared blindly outside the window at the pouring rain. The window was slightly open so some air could come in.
Adriana kept quiet in the corner the whole time, she pulled a record out of the box and slid it out of the case.
There was silence for a while until it was broken by the sound of triumph from Adriana.
"Hey! I made it work!" The record started spinning under the pin and sound came out.
Lucy glanced over at John's finger's, wrapped around the gem. Her eyes widened with fear.
She scrambled to her feet and came heading for John she pushed him.
"Let go of the gem!" She shrieked.
John released the gem and Lucy threw it. The gem went flying through the air, Paul was about to catch it when he realised it could make him travel to the future again. He rapidly moved backwards. The gem continued to fly, it flew right out the small crack of the window, as if it was aimed.
"Noo!" John ran up to the window. The gem dropped and landed on the road.
"Ugh, it's old music!" Adriana scoffed and turned off the record player.
"What have you done?!" Paul pulled at his hair.
Adriana stared at him wide-eyed.
"We have to get the gem!" John stormed out of the room.
"Come." George offered his hand to her.
Lucy, Paul, George and Adriana followed him outside. John opened the door and was greeted by the howling sound of the wind. The rain spat on the front door tiles.
The five of them ran out into the rain towards the gem. John picked up the gem in his hands and ran his fingers through his wet hair. His eyes widened.
