Ringo hummed quietly to himself as he walked into the kitchen, shuffling through the papers John had just dropped off for him. They were the guitar and drum rhythms for their new song, and Ringo was looking around for George.
Just as he walked in, he gasped, "George Harold Harrison!" George was balanced precariously on a chair, reaching up for the donut box Ringo had stashed up there.
"Ringo!" he cried, then toppled down. Ringo sighed and slapped his palm to his face. He held out a hand and helped George up, laughing a little. George smiled sheepishly.
"George," Ringo started, but he couldn't keep a straight face. George was dusted entirely with white powder and a bit of jelly. "George," he tried again, "why were you up there?"
"I wanted a donut." he pouted jokingly. Ringo shook his head, still smiling. "George, there was a reason they were up there, you know."
"To torment me?" George said, looking down at the mess he'd created. Ringo laughed and said, "Close. We have to save some, you know."
George narrowed his eyes playfully. "Fine." He drawled like it took him a huge effort. Ringo reached to the side and pulled up the mop. Swinging it to George, he said, "When you're done, meet me upstairs. John just dropped off the rhythms."
"Ooohh!" George squealed. "I like this one!"
Ringo laughed again at the childlike excitement in his voice. "Believe me, we all know." He walked upstairs to his drum set, trying to figure out the complicated patterns. He sat down and tried the first bit, drumming out a few beats. But it didn't sound right to him. He switched around one note and tried it that way. Yes, he liked that much better.
He heard George walking up the stairs, but he didn't look up. George walked in, still sprinkling powder everywhere. Ringo looked up at him, exasperated. "You could clean it anywhere else, George. But in the practice room? Really?"
George raised his eyebrows, smiling. "I'll vacuum. Besides, I like the taste." He wiped one finger down his shirt and licked it, watching Ringo the entire time.
Ringo, who'd stopped playing, looked at him with a mixture of curiosity and pity. He smiled and said, "Why do I love you?''
"I'm me. What other reason do you need?" George teased. He picked up a piece of sheet music and sat down, sliding on his guitar as he did. He started picking out a few notes, then strummed them together while Ringo switched up a few more beats. Eventually, George cued them together. Ringo grinned at him as he realized how great it sounded.
"It's good." George smiled as he returned the guitar back into place. Ringo stood up, dropping his drumsticks onto his seat. "Did you actually clean downstairs?" he questioned, looking at him. George tilted a hand.
Ringo narrowed his eyes and pushed past him to look in the kitchen. He still saw a few smashed donuts on the cabinets and floor. He took a deep breath and said, "Georgie, dear? There's still a few here."
"I know." George admitted, following him down. "I saved them."
Ringo threw his hands up. "For what?"
George grinned devilishly as he knelt down to scoop one up. Laughing, he threw it at Ringo. It splattered all over him, and he grinned back as he tried to shake some of the white powder out of his own hair. "Oh, you're going to start that?" he challenged. Grinning back at him, he picked up his own and threw it at George, who laughed as it exploded jelly all over his shirt.
"Ringo! Now I have to take a shower!" he laughed as he wiped it off. Ringo stepped forwards and wrapped his arms around his waist. "Let me clean you off." he murmured, still smiling. He leaned up to press his lips to George's, smiling. George smiled too, as he tasted the jelly and sugar off Ringo's lips.
He pulled away after a few more seconds. "Now, Ringsy. Let's clean all this up properly, eh?"
Ringo pushed one side of his mouth up. "What if I don't want to?"
George grinned. "Too bad."
Oh, George. :facepalm: We all expect you to love your donuts, all right :D
