Here is another story I wrote. All the red are the lyrics to teh song in order!
Strawberry fields forever!
It was a beautiful Saturday morning. The sun was casting rays off the grass, and the wind was blowing making the trees shake. I was walking to my girlfriend, Rachel’s house. When I turned the corner to her house she was waiting for me on the front porch.
“Let me take you down,” I said. She shook her head.
“I told you, I have to baby-sit my little brother,” she replied. I walked up to her and rapped my arms around her waist. “Come inside and have something to eat,” she said and gestured toured the door behind us.
“Can’t, cause I’m going to strawberry fields,” I replied and smiled. “I think you should come,”
“To you nothing is real and you need to get into the real world,” she said. It’s nothing to get hung about I thought to myself.
“Call a babysitter and come down to the strawberry fields with me,” It old her. She shook her head but I made her stop. I ran into the house and got the phone and put it in her hand. She sighed.
“How long will we be there?” she asked.
“Forever!” I said and laughed. She laughed as well. Then she dialed a number and called a babysitter. About five minutes later the babysitter arrived and we headed off toured the field.
“What am I going to do with you? You never take things seriously,” she said and grabbed my hand.
“You need to open up your eyes and see the world. Like me!” I told her. She smiled.
“Living is easy with eyes closed,” she replied. I laughed at this.
“Misunderstanding is all you see. It doesn’t matter to me. As long as I love my life to the fullest, “ I said and began to run. She grabbed my hand tighter and ran with me. We passed an old climbing tree I use to climb as a child. Rachel stopped and looked at it.
“No one I think is in my tree. Want to climb it?” I asked.
“I thought we going to the fields?” she asked and smirked at me. I rolled my eyes and we began running again until Rachel stopped once again. It surprised me and I fell.
“Do you here that?” she asked. I listened and couldn’t here anything beside some birds in there near by tree. “It’s the ocean! Come on!” she began to run, I followed. “I hope the tide is low,” she said.
“I hope the tide is high,” I argued.
“One of us will be happy and one wont. I mean it must be high or low, there no in between,” she said and laughed. I didn’t think it was funny at all, but I forced a laugh out. As soon as we got to the ocean I ran into the water.
“Your so weird,” she said. I smiled.
“Yeah crazy and whacked,” I replied.
“That is you alright,” she said and ran into the water after me. “You know what?” she asked. I grabbed her hand and we began walking out of the water. We were both socking wet all the way to our heads. But neither of us cared.
“What?” I asked curious to what she was going to say.
“You don’t tune it, but it’s all right. That’s what I like about you,” she said. What did she mean by this? I thought to myself.
“Tune it? What?” I asked. She giggled.
“Your always in your world and not listening to me,” she replied. I frowned now. I didn’t mean to be like that. I knew I did it, that is I think it’s not too bad. I couldn’t help it. She noticed me frowning and not saying anything.
“But it’s a good thing! Really!” she said. How is it a good thing. My answer is always no to that. We walked down the beach for a while until we dried off and then started on our way to the fields again. As we were walking on the road I was thinking about the flowers I had been sending Rachel in the mail. She thought they were from her parents, but I didn’t tell her so. I wondered if she sometimes think it’s me. I mean I am her boyfriend. She might think it’s too good to be true. I can usually tell when it’s too good to be true, but you know I know when it’s a dream or not. Someday I would tell her. “Are we almost there?” Rachel asked interrupting my thinking.
“I think…I know…I mean yes,” I stuttered. She giggled again. A few minutes later we arrived at the fields, but it wasn’t how I had exspetid it to be. It was strawberry time so I thought there would be ripe, juicy strawberries everywhere, but instead everything was dead.
“This is a strawberry field?” she asked me looking it over.
“Yes, but it’s all wrong.” I told her. “I’m sorry I brought you here,” When I saw that she was frowning.
“Don’t be. That is I think I disagree with your apology,” she said. I frowned I didn’t understand. Then she bent down and moved the leaves over of a dead strawberry plant and there inside the plant was the biggest, ripest, juiciest strawberry. She picked it and took a bite. We both smiled.
“I think I am going to stay in Strawberry fields forever!” she told me.
