Pait, Keif, an' Rogah 'ad all talked me into goin' to the stupid thing to begin with. Turns out it was a good thing I did. Maybe I should thank 'em one day...'ere's 'ow it all started....
Me an' th' boys 'ad decided (well actually, *they* oll decided for me) to go on this "shopping trip" because Rogah needed some new shampoos for 'e's lucious golden curls, Keif needed new drumsticks cause, well, 'e's always breakin' 'em, an' Pait needed some nose powder. 'Im an' tha' damn nose...'e's nevah gonna get ovah it...anyways...they forced me to go along cause they didn't want me to stay at th' 'otel by myself...so, 'ere I am walking along in this big department store, you guessed it, by myself. I was mindin' me own business when...she 'appened to walk along my way.
'Er long blonde hair, 'er blue-green eyes, 'er leather pants and white go-go boots...what the in bloody 'ell is tha' gahl tryin' to do?? She's liable to make a man go mad just by lookin' at 'er!! Tha's bloody right...put 'im outta 'is misery. If ya can't 'ave 'er you might as well be dead!!
I could tell she was American, seein' as 'ow she didn't have a 'int of English in 'er voice. I could 'ear 'er talkin' to 'er friend. That's when I actually noticed she was wif someone else. I looked at th' other gahl. She 'ad red hair an' was wearing a miniskirt wif a wild-looking top. Keif would like th' sights of 'er...I should go an' find 'im. But I don't want to loose sight of th' newcomers. So I decide to follow 'em, an' maybe strike up a 'lil conversation wif 'em when they stop walkin'.
I could 'ear th' blonde gahl talkin', "Oh Em! Look at all these fab clothes! Have you ever seen so many wonderful-looking get-ups in your life?!"
To which th' other gahl responded, "No! It is great, isn't it? I knew we would find some good stuff here!"
Then she must 'ave noticed I was followin' 'em cause I could 'ear 'er whisper to th' blonde girl, "Don't look now...but I think the guy behind us has his sights set on you. He's been following us..."
Th' other gahl replyed, "How do you know he likes me?! He could be following us because of you, ya know!"
"No...I saw who he was lookin' at! And it wasn't me!" th' other gahl said back.
I continued to follow 'em for about a minute more, when suddenly th' blonde gahl I 'ad been eyeing did an about face an' stopped, causing me to walk right into 'er.
"I'm sorry!!" I said as I stepped back to make sure she was ok.
"You should be," she replied wif a smile. "Why are you following me?"
"Me? Followin' you? You must be mistaken...."
"No...I know I'm not. You've been following me. I'd like to know why."
I stood there for a moment, dumbfounded. I 'ad nevah talked to such a pretty gahl before.
"Olright...I do admit I was followin' you. But I didn't mean any 'arm. I just wanted to talk. My name's Jun. Jun Entwistle," I introduced myself as I shook 'er 'and.
"My name's Heather. Heather McCartney. Nice to meet you. I've never met a stalker before," she joked, her eyes sparkling.
"Well I must say, I've nevah 'ad a more pretty victim."
"I'll bet you haven't..." she grinned. God, even 'er smile was perfect.
"This is my best friend, Emily Nesmith," she introduced me to 'er friend.
"Nice to meet you," Emily said as she shook my 'and. Yes, I definantly think Keif would like this one.
"Would you ladies care to meet some good friends of mine?" I asked. After oll, I couldn't let these two get away! Keif would kill me for sure!
"Sure," 'Eather replied. "Lead the way."
I met up wif th' othah lads after an extensive seach throughout th' department store. They 'ad all found each othah again, an' 'ad been lookin' for me. I found 'em first.
"Guys, meet 'Eather an' Emily," I introduced th' gahls to th' othah three lads.
"Hi," 'Eather said wif a smile.
"Hello there!" Emily greeted th' guys cheerfully.
Keif gave me a "thank you" grin as he kissed Emily's 'and.
"So very nice to meet you, Emily," Keif said charmingly as Emily blushed.
"Thank you...but you can call me M if you'd like."
"Olright then, my little M, wot do you say we get back to our 'otel 'an get to know each othah a lil bettah?" Keif asked wif a cheeky grin.
Emily nodded happily. "Tha' would be great!"
"I'm Rogah," Rogah said, as he shook 'Eather's 'and. "It's so very nice to meet you..." 'E was puttin' on th' charm olready...I could see it in 'is eyes.... "'An as you probably olready know, tha's Keif over there wif your friend. 'An this 'ere is Pete."
"Hello there," 'Eeather smiled at Pete.
Pete said a curt "'Ello," back.
'E nevah was much of a talker when it came to gahls 'e just met....
"Would you like to come wif us to our 'otel? We'd be glad to 'ave you," Roger grinned.
"Um, well do I really have a choice? Look's like Em over there had decided for me a while ago..." she replied wif a smile.
I quickly said, "If you want to come wif us you can. I would personally be delighted to 'ave you. I'd like to get to know you more."
She smiled at this. Honesty works sometimes.
"Alright then!" she agreed, laughing as she looked ovah at 'er friend, Emily, who Keif was now tickleling. "Looks like I'm going to be sticking around for a while...."
I smiled at 'er.
"You smiled!" she exclaimed wif a laugh. "You really should do it more often. It sure beats looking down."
"As long as you're around, I'm sure I'll be smilin' a lot more than I usually do," I told her honestly.
"That's so sweet!" she commented as she took my arm in hers. "Lead the way!"
'An wif tha', we walked out of th' department store to our car and off to th' 'otel.
*****************************************************************
We 'ad made it to th' 'otel we were currently stayin' in. It was th' only one so far that Keif 'adn't trashed.
"So you guys are The Who?" 'Eather asked inquisitively.
"We sure are," Pete replied, proud of "his" group.
"I think I've heard of you before..." Emily said while thinking. "Yes, I'm almost sure I have. Don't you have a song called 'My Generation'?"
"Tha's the one," Keif replied wif a grin.
"I thought so! You should come over to America sometime. You'd be a big sensation there!" Emily suggested.
Pete seemed to be seriously considering this. "Maybe we could on our next tour. We 'aven't been to America yet."
"'Ey! Tha' would be fun! Think of oll th' gahls ovah there tha' would fall for me..." Rogah said confidently, yet vainly.
I rolled my eyes. Why'd 'e 'ave to always be like tha'...
"Would you like to 'ear us play somethin'?" I asked out of th' blue.
'Eather smiled an' replied, "Sure! That would be great!"
"Olright guys, le's go!" I said as we 'eaded ovah to our instruments. I picked up my bass an' placed th' strap around my shoulder. "Pete? Wha' are we playin'?"
"Well...since they know it somewhat, 'ow 'bout 'My Generation?" 'e suggested.
Rogah beamed at th' thought of this. "Oh goody! I get to show off my true vocal abilities!!"
"Yeah Rog...wotevah..." Keif said sarcastically as 'e counted th' beat off for us. "One...two....one, two, three, four!!!"
"People try to put us d-d-own...just because we g-g-et around..." Rogah started, smiling a brillant smile in th' pauses of th' song.
Then, while I played my bass solo, 'e started swingin' 'is microphone around. But this time, 'e was tryin' to show off a little too much an' got careless wif it. Th' microphone came around an' swung right into Pete's face.
"Damn it, Daltrey!!!!" 'e yelled as we stopped playin'. "WHY did you DO tha'??!!"
"I didn't mean to! You're still alive, aren't you?!!" Rogah replied, defending 'imself.
"I'm sick of tha' STUPID microphone twirlin' you olways do!! 'An this incident is puttin' a stop to it once 'an for ALL!" Pete continued to yell.
"It didn't seem to hurt you much!! 'An besides, it's not like any more damage to your 'orrid face would make such a huge difference!!" Rogah yelled back. I only watched as Pete's fist made contact wif Rogah's face.
It was then tha' 'Eather jumped up an' got in between th' two of 'em an' separted 'em before either one of 'em could do anything else.
"Guys, stop it!! We don't need any of this!! Now Pete, Roger didn't mean to hit you. And Roger, you need to stop showing off so much and don't be so careless with something like that!" she scolded.
Rogah nodded like 'e totally agreed wif 'er. "You're right. I'll be more careful next time."
Pete scowled as 'e sat 'is guitar down.
"I'll go get some ice!" Emily volunteered as she ran to th' little kitchen tha' was in our room an' got some ice out of th' freezer.
She 'anded th' ice tha' was wrapped up in a washcloth to Pete an' then got another one for Rogah.
I sighed as I sat down my bass. "So much for tha'..." I said as I sat down on th' couch.
'Eather came an' sat down next to me. "It's okay. It was just a little clash between egos," she whispered as she gave me a wink. "You can play something for me later, olright?"
"Sure," I agreed wif a nod.
"Wha' do ya say we go 'an get some FOOD?!" Keif suggested wif a wild grin.
"Ooo! You just read my mind!" Emily exclaimed, smiling at Keif. "'Cause I'm starving!"
"Olright then, tha' settles it! Le's go 'an find a place to eat!" Keif said, bouncing out th' door wif Emily close behind 'im.
"I'm gonna stay 'ere..." Pete mumbled as 'e 'eaded back to 'is own room.
Rogah rolled 'is eyes at Pete. "Well *I'M* goin'. No need to miss a meal cause of a hit on th' 'ead!"
"I think I'll stay 'ere too. I don't really feel like goin' out anywhere," I decided.
'Eather looked at me an' said, "Then I'll stay here too. But Roger, could you please look after Emily? I don't want her getting into any trouble, ok?"
"Don't worry. Keif an' I'll take good care o' 'er," Rogah promised. An' wif tha', 'e left.
"Are you good friends with Keith?" 'Eather suddenly asked me.
To which I replyed, "Yes, we're best friends."
"That's good. I just wanted to make sure Emily was in good hands."
"Don't worry 'bout 'er. She'll be find wif 'im," I assured 'er wif a smile.
"Well, would you like something to eat? I could fix us something if you'd like," 'Eather volunteered.
"Tha' would be nice...but I don't want you to go out of your way or anything. After all, you're a guest."
"Oh don't worry! I don't mind at all!" she said as she got up an' went to th' kitchen.
"Olright then, I'll fix us up a lil place to eat." I opened th' sliding door tha' led to th' balcony. I then brought out a little table just big enough for two people to eat on. I brought out two chairs an' a nice table cloth. I then went into Keif's room an' found a candle. I lit th' candle an' set it in th' middle of th' table. Hmm...something's missin'... I thought as it suddenly occured to me. Of course! Music! I brought out th' record player tha' was in th' middle of th' 'otel room an' sat it on th' balcony. I then went back inside an' searched through th' collection of records Pete 'ad brought wif 'im. I picked some classical one an' put it on th' record player an' adjusted th' volume to where it played in th' background. I then went to th' kitchen to see if I could 'elp 'Eather wif anything.
"Do you need any assistance?" I asked as I stood next to 'er.
"Not yet...but knowing me, I probably will!" she made fun of 'erself wif a laugh.
She looked so sweet an' innocent when she laughed. An' 'er laugh sounded wonderful. Like music to a person's ear.
"I hope you like baked chicken and salad!" she said as she chopped up lettuce.
"Wow, you mean to tell me we 'ad oll tha' in 'ere?" I asked in amazement.
"You sure did. And you didn't even know it?" She laughed. "Well I'm doing the best I can! I hope I don't ruin anything!"
"I'm sure it's goin' to be great," I told 'er truthfully.
"Thank you! You're such a flatterer!"
"I try," I smiled.
She smiled back as she continued to cook our dinner. About 45 minutes latah, she 'ad finished. I took th' plates of food out onto th' balcony an' set them oll on th' table while 'Eather washed up.
I came back inside an' waited for 'er. She walked out from th' kitchen an' was surprised to see me standin' there.
"Is something wrong?" she asked wif concern.
"Oh no! I was just coming back because I forgot somethin'," I told 'er.
"Oh, what was it?"
"You."
She blushed as I took 'er 'and an' made our way out onto th' balcony.
She gasped at th' sight of th' little table I 'ad set up for us. I pulled out 'er chair for 'er an' she sat down.
"Oh John, this is so pretty!" she commented wif a sigh. "You didn't need to do any of this, really!"
"You're right. Your beauty would 'ave been more than enough by itself," I told 'er honestly.
She smiled an' shook 'er head. "You really are sweet, you know that?"
"No, no one's evah told me tha' before. You're th' first one," I replied.
"I don't believe that! With such charm like yours..."
"It's true..." I said leaning closer to 'er.
"Well...you'll be, hearing it a lot more...as long as I'm around...." she trailed off as I kissed 'er gently on th' lips.
She smiled at me once we were finished. "You're so different than any other guy I've ever known...I think I'm falling in love with you..."
"And I, wif you," I agreed as I kissed 'er again.
We ended up not eating much dinner, wot wif our kissing filling up our appetites an' oll.
After dinner, we sat out on th' balcony togethah, cuddled up next to each othah, gazing at th' stars.
We talked for a while about our lives an' our interests an' dislikes.
Sometime around 2 hours latah, we 'eard someone coming in th' door. Must be Keif an' Emily, I thought. Wonder 'ow Keif made out wif this one.
Just then, as I 'ad suspected, Keif an' Emily came out onto th' balcony, surprised to see us th' way we were.
"Heath!" Emily exclaimed, grinning from ear to ear. "I take it your evening went well...as did mine!" she said as she smiled up at Keif.
Keif gave me a wink as he hugged Emily.
"Yes, we 'ad quite a lovely time," Keif agreed, smiling down at Emily.
"You'll have to tell me about it later, Em," 'Eather said to Emily wif a wink.
Emily nodded in response.
Suddenly, Rogah walked out onto th' balcony. "'Ey! Wot's goin' on 'ere anyways? 'Avin' a partaiy wifout me, eh?"
"Not really, Rog. Why don't you gone to bed? To bed, I said!" Keith commanded, shoving Rogah back inside.
Rogah gave 'im a scowl as 'e did wot 'e was told.
"I've 'ad about enouf of 'im for one night..." Keif gave an exasperated sigh.
"Why, wot 'appened?" I asked as 'e an' Emily sat down in a chair.
"Well, for starters, 'e disagreed wif everywhere we suggested we go an' eat at. An' then, once we found a place we oll decided on, we get in there, an' 'e starts actin' like a total git. Just any lil thing 'e could think of tha' might be annoying 'e did," Keif explained wif a frown.
"He must just be in a bad mood from tonight's little incident," Emily concluded. "The ego clash."
"Tha' could be it. Either tha' or 'e's jealous because 'e ain't got a gahl for once!" I suggested. An' 'e wasn't going to be gettin' my gahl, tha's for sure.
"Ah well," 'Eather sighed. "I'm beat. Is it alright if me and Em crash here for the night?"
"Tha's perfectly fine wif me! Wot about you, Keif?" I asked, knowing full well wot 'is response would be.
"Tha's a great idea!" Keif agreed hyperactively. Then he got an idea of 'is own. "'Ey! Em can stay in my room wif me, an' 'Eather can stay wif you Johnny!"
Emily giggled at this. "Alright Mr. Moon, but don't you go and try to *do* anything! Or I'll have to reprimand you!"
"Wot's tha'? Sounds like fun to me!" Keif grinned wildly.
Emily poked 'im in th' side. "Well, goodnight you two! Behave!" she called as she an' Keif went to their room.
'Eather laughed an' leaned 'er head against me. This was going to be a lovely night....
*****************************************************************
I woke up th' next morning an' looked oll around me expecting to see 'Eather somewhere near me. Only, she was nowhere to be found. I got up an' went to Keef's room.
"'Ey Keef...'ave you seen 'Eath this morning?" I asked, as he looked up from making out wif Emily.
"Nope, can't say I've seen 'er, I've been 'ere looking at my beautiful Emily!!" Keef smiled as Emily beamed.
I rolled my eyes. "Yeah, thanks."
"Wait a minute John...try looking in the living room or see if she's taking a shower or something," Emily suggested.
I nodded. "Thanks."
I walked to th' living room. No one there 'cept for Rogah. I nodded at 'im, acknowledging 'is presence an' continued ovah to my room's bathroom. I knocked on th' door. No answer. Th' door was unlocked so I went in. No sign of 'er anywhere. I sighed. Where could she 'ave gone?
*****************************************************************
"Hey! I'm back!" 'Eather called as she walked in th' door.
"'EATH! Where were you?? I was so worried!" I said quickly, sweeping 'er up in a hug.
She frowned. "I'm sorry John. I didn't want you to worry! I had some things to take care of, that's all. But I'm here now!"
I nodded. "Yes, an' I'm so glad," I replied as I gave 'er a kiss. Then, suddenly, things started to get blurry an' 'Eather started to fade away from me.
"Wot, wot's happening?!" I yelled trying to reach out to 'Eather 'oo was fading away from me in front of my very eyes. Th' room suddenly started to get bright. Brighter. Extremely bright. So bright I 'ad to close my eyes....
"Jun? Jun?? 'Ello Jun?! Get up!" a voice yelled at me. My eyes were closed an' so I slowly opened 'em to come face to face wif Keef.
"Wot? Wot happened?" I asked, sitting up an' lookin' around.
"Huh? Wot are ya tolking about, lad? It's morning. You've been asleep...that happens to th' best of us. We oll get tired an' go to sleep at night an' wake up in th' morning," Keef explained wif a cheeky grin.
"But I..I...nevermind."
Keef smiled. "C'mon, le's go make Rogah get us some breakfast!" Keef said cheerfully as 'e romped out of th' room.
A dream...it was oll a dream?! 'Eather an' Emily were just a dream??"
*****************************************************************
Latah tha' day, we decided to go to th' mall an' do some shopping. Well, th' othah guys decided to anyways. Rogah needed some shampoo for 'is stupid hair. So we get there, an' I decide to look around on me own. That's when she shows up.
A beautiful blonde haired gahl wif 'er red-'eaded friend.
She bumped into me, as I was just standing there, marveling in 'er beauty... "Oh, I'm sorry!" she quickly appologized.
"Tha's olright. I'm John, wot's your name?"
She smiled. "I'm Heather. Nice to meet you!"
THE END
