Teddy Boy!John Lennon X Modern!Reader - Smoke & Serendipity 🚬 (Part 2)
(thank you all for the overwhelming amount of love and praise for Smoke & Serendipity!! I hope this continuation lives up to your expectations 💕 enjoy!)
As John's figure disappears down the bustling streets, you're left standing in the alleyway, unable to shake the feeling of excitement and uncertainty swirling in your mind. The invitation to his band's gig at the Cavern Club hangs in the air, tempting you with the promise of adventure in this unfamiliar era.
You glance down at your attire once more, realizing that if you're going to fit in at this gig, you'll need a drastic wardrobe change. With determination powering every step, you set off to find the nearest clothing store, navigating the winding streets with a newfound sense of purpose. The sights and sounds of 1950s Liverpool flood your senses, fueling your excitement for the night ahead.
After what feels like an eternity of searching, you finally stumble upon a quaint boutique tucked away in a corner of the city. The bell above the door chimes as you step inside, greeted by the scent of mothballs and starched fabric. Rows of vintage clothing line the racks, each piece seemingly plucked straight from the pages of a decades-old magazine.
As you sift through the hangers and peruse the displays, your eyes land on a striking ensemble that catches your attention: a sleek leather jacket paired with tailored trousers and a fitted blouse. Eager to try it on, you gather the pieces and head to the fitting room, more than ready to shed your outdated attire in favor of something more fitting for the era.
Emerging from the stall, you catch a glimpse of your reflection in the dusty mirror and marvel at the transformation before you. The leather jacket fits like a second skin, the trousers hugging your frame in all the right places. With a satisfied smile, you pay for your new digs and step out onto the street, feeling like a different person entirely.
With your confidence renewed and your wardrobe updated, you set off once more in search of the Cavern Club, keen to make the most of your unexpected journey through time. You find yourself wondering what adventures await you at the club, and what role John and his band will play in your journey back to the present.
Anticipation builds as you approach the venue, the neon lights of the city illuminating your path ahead. With each step, you can feel the energetic atmosphere around you, the pulse of rock 'n' roll echoing through the air.
Stepping inside the dimly-lit club, the sound of live music spills out into the streets and you're greeted by the sight of a packed crowd, swaying to its rhythm. The air is thick with cigarette smoke and the smell of stale beer, adding to the gritty charm of the underground venue.
You push your way through the throngs of people, scanning the crowd for any sign of John. Finally, you spot him in the corner of the room, his unmistakable silhouette illuminated by the glow of the stage lights.
Making your way over to him, you can't help but feel a surge of excitement mingled with nervousness. You catch his eye, offering a small wave and smile as he greets you with a sly grin of his own.
"Well, well, well. Look who decided to show up," he teases, his voice barely audible over the roar of the crowd.
"I couldn't resist," you reply, raising your voice to be heard over the din. "Besides, I just had to see what all the fuss was about."
John chuckles and nods toward the stage, where his bandmates are now tuning their instruments in preparation for their set.
"Just wait until you hear us play." Smug confidence is evident in his voice, that much is obvious- but just underneath, you swear you can detect the smallest hint of anxiety.
"We're going to blow your mind."
As the band takes the stage and launches into their first song, you find yourself swept up in the electrifying energy of the performance. The pure passion and talent demonstrated in their music resonate deeply with you, transcending the boundaries of time and space. John's voice cuts through the noise, raw and unfiltered, sending pleasant shivers down your spine. Enchanted by the pulsing beat of the drums and the warmth of the crowd, you feel more alive than you ever have before.
Lost in the music and company, you forget, if only for a moment, about the pressing question of how to return to your own time. For now, you're content to simply live in the present (or rather, the past), embracing the adventure and spontaneity of your unexpected journey. But as the final chords fade away and the lights come up, reality comes crashing back down around you.
With a heavy heart, you make your way toward the exit, the echoes of the music still ringing in your ears. But as you step out into the cool night air, a voice calls out from behind you.
"Hey, where do you think you're going?"
John's voice cuts through the darkness and shakes you from your train of thought. You turn to face him, a bittersweet smile playing at your lips.
"I... I have to go," you sigh, your voice wavering with uncertainty. But when you ponder your situation a moment longer, you come to the realization that you haven't considered where you're going to sleep - if you're even able to with everything weighing on your mind.
John snaps you back to attention with a dismissive wave of his hand.
"Sure ya don't! It's Friday night, after all. Unless you just aren't interested in me, which I can't imagine is true." He takes a step closer and quirks an eyebrow at you, awaiting your reply to his bold suggestion.
"Is this your way of inviting me back to your place?"
He shrugs, trying to look nonchalant but secretly hoping you'll accept. You consider the possibility - on one hand, it's another night away from your own time. But on the other, you still have no clue how you'll get back to the present. And in the meantime, a comfy bed and a roof over your head would be nice.
"If so... sure. Why not?" You smile and look to John, whose face lights up as you finally your decision.
"Well, what are we waiting for then?"
John takes your hand in his and pulls you along behind him. You stumble over your own feet as you try to match his pace, giggling all the while.
Though the path back to your own time remains uncertain, you can't help but feel hopeful, reinvigorated with a newfound sense of belonging in this unfamiliar era.

you alive?
I am very much alive, thank you for asking :)
How they act when they're sick + how you take care of them 💊
(huge thanks to @pmak2002 for requesting this one!! 💗)
Paul:
when he's fallen ill, Paul becomes even more of a drama queen than he already is
following a bad coughing fit, he'll croak out: "I'm so weak.. Y/N, I'm dying!! I'm too young and pretty to die! T^T" he exclaims, throwing his head back and shutting one eye- the other remaining open just so he can gauge your reaction to his hysterics
you shake your head and giggle at Paul, reassuring him: "You aren't dying, dear- you simply have a bad cold. I'll take wonderful care of you, don't worry- you're in good hands," you tell him, kissing him gently on the cheek
he chuckles softly and looks up at you with wide, glassy eyes: "You really are the sweetest- you know that, right lovey?"
he'll beg you to join him in bed: "Come lay with me darling, it'll be so lovely"
"Ohh I know it would, I just don't want to get sick"
Paul pouts in response and huffs, "You'll be sorry when you aren't here for my FINAL BREATH!!" he dramatizes, feigning distress
you roll your eyes- "You're such a princess, Paulie"
he shoots you a look- "Yeah, yeah- but I'm your princess" <3
John:
whenever John is feeling under the weather, he always tries to deny it as best he can
he plays his illness down and tries to do everything for himself, refusing to rest or show vulnerability in your presence
you rise from the couch and wander into the kitchen in pursuit of a snack for you and John only to find him stood in front of the stove, focused intently on the steaming kettle and two ceramic mugs before him
"John, what are you doing up??" you ask, incredulous- "You need bedrest!!"
"Relax love, I'm fine- don't ye worry yer pretty little head about me," he says, nose clearly stuffy and voice even more nasally than usual
"....John." you warn, quirking an eyebrow and giving him a stern look
John removes the kettle from the stove, pouring each of you a steaming cup of earl grey tea and taking his own into his hands
"What? I'm not even-" he begins, interrupting himself with a violent coughing fit
"...come on, let's get you to bed," you sigh, grabbing your own mug and guiding him to your shared bedroom for some much needed respite
George:
when George has caught a cold he accepts your TLC, but downplays the severity of his condition for your sake
he mainly uses it as an excuse to sleep even more than usual (if that's humanly possible)
you often check up on him even if he's out cold, your expression softening and your heart melting when you see his serene face
'I wonder what he's dreaming about,' you muse- and with that thought George shifts positions, mumbling quietly in his sleep: "Y/N..."
you smile to yourself and begin to tear up, knowing he's dreaming of you ♡
George also tends to take advantage of your care when he's sick, requesting that nearly all the food in the pantry be brought to his bedside
"George... you know I want to do anything in my power to help you heal, but that'll be your fifth bowl of noodles in the past two hours.."
"But babe- 'aven't you ever 'eard the expression, 'feed a cold, starve a fever'?" he tries with a lopsided, wolf-toothed grin
you sigh, unable to refuse him, and fetch him another helping
"Thank you doll, you're so good to me- i won't forget it, ye know"
Ringo:
Ringo- your sweet, loving boyfriend- tends to act very needy when he's ill
he runs a fever and suddenly he's back in primary school, being kept home on a sick day:
he kindly requests for you to put cartoons on the television and a colorful box of tissues on his bedside table
you comply with his wishes of course- even tucking him in, brushing his fringe to the side and giving him a gentle peck on the forehead
he looks up at you, beaming, and blows a kiss back- taking care not to afflict you with the illness as well
he constantly has to ask you to bring more lozenges to the bedroom, as he's already inhaled every one like they're hard candies
"Y/N, would you be a dear and fetch me another bowl of soup?"
"Sure lovey, coming right u-"
"Ohh, oh! And some ice cream? Pretty please?" Ringo implores, gazing up at you from bed with his big, blue puppy dog eyes
your heart melts and you give him a soft smile, replying with an "Of course, Ritchie- anything for you"
"Thank you Y/N, you truly are the best" ♡
