They didn’t speak till they had driven for 30 minutes already.
“Okay…Lauren…speak up. What did he say and what’s up now?” Olivia asked.
Lauren told the girls everything. How John told her he wasn’t right for her and how he apologized for his behaviour.
“Awh…if you think about it…he’s kind of sad.” Sarah said.
“He is…but I like him. I love him.” Lauren said.
“You need to forget him girl.” Jan said.
“But what if they come over to visit you girls…I mean…am I going to be left out now?” she asked.
“No silly…well…you’ll have to think of him as a friend, not as a possible lover.” Jan explained.
Lauren nodded. “It’s going to be hard, but I think I can do it. He’s right…I need guys like Bobby.”
“Bobby!?” the other three yelled.
“Girl, he was such a softy.” Olivia laughed.
“Yeah, but at least he was sweet and nice and a gentleman.” Lauren spitted.
Olivia rolled her eyes and Jan coughed.
“Maybe you should give him a call…you know…just to have a good time, without thinking about John.” Jan tried.
“John who?” Lauren said causing the others to look at her. “I have forgotten about him again. Well I try, but it’s working.”
“Till we get home.” Sarah mumbled.
“Okay and now you Livvy.” Jan smiled looking at Liv in the mirror.
“Oh girls…I’m so happy. George is so cute. The only thing that slightly annoys me is that he smokes, but then again I put up with you too Sar.” Liv said smiling.
“Is Paul coming with him when he visits you?” Jan asked taking a left turn and pushing the gas to go to the highway.
Sarah patted Jan on the head.
“Ouch! What did you do that for?” Jan said rubbing the sour place.
“Jan!!! Why are you playing so hard to get. He wants you!” Sarah said.
“Yes girl. I thought you fancied him.” Liv yelled in her ear.
“I do… but I just want to give it some time.” Jan said.
“Some time? What for?” Sarah asked.
“For…well why do we need to rush things? If he really fancies me he’ll wait.” She replied.
“Jan….you have your silly moments…and this is another one. Paul…he is really handsome and you let him walk away.” Olivia said.
“I’m not…I mean…well…he said he fancied me, so he’ll wait and if he doesn’t…well then he didn’t fancy me as much as I fancy him.” She said before she drove the car in a tunnel.
“Silly Jan.” Sarah teased her.
Jan pushed Sarah.
“Watch the road silly.” Olivia yelled.
And this way they drove on till they reached home.

Meanwhile at the guys place.
“So…what did you say to Lauren John?” Paul asked. “You obviously got her upset.”
John explained what he had said.
“Hmm…I don’t know John. So you have told her about the band?” Ringo asked.
“Yes I did…of course I did! Come on guys…what if we DO get famous?” John said. “Believe me…you would be just like me…getting every girl you can. And you know it!”
“No, I wouldn’t. I really love Olivia.” George shook his head.
“You love her? After one night? You don’t even know what love is…you like her…or are in love with her, which isn’t weird, because she’s cute... But you can’t love her after one night!” John now yelled.
“John stop yelling please. What if George really likes this girl? At least he’s willing to give the relationship a chance.” Paul said.
John sighed.
“I don’t even know Lauren that well. I only know she’s a good kisser and that she lives with her parents.”
“So?” Ringo frowned.
“Well. I don’t know…never mind.” John said gazing out of the window.
After a short moment of silence Paul started cheering.
“John!!! John I think you’re actually in love!!!” he said hugging John.
“No way man!” John grumbled.
“I think Paul’s right Johnny. I think you really like Lauren…more than you’d like to admit. And you just don’t know what to do with it.” George said like he was a Psychiatrist.
John didn’t say a word till they were at Paul and Ringo’s work. How would they know what he felt? They were his best friends, but he could make up his own mind about his feelings. And he sure as hell wasn’t in love.
“Okay…Lauren…speak up. What did he say and what’s up now?” Olivia asked.
Lauren told the girls everything. How John told her he wasn’t right for her and how he apologized for his behaviour.
“Awh…if you think about it…he’s kind of sad.” Sarah said.
