Chapter Text

Paul sat at the piano, the only part of the stage a light was shining on. The rest of the band was in their usual positions but hidden.

Paul looked behind him, checking that his hidden band mates were ready. They nodded. Paul waited for the crowd to quite down.
He did one last check and positioned his fingers over the correct keys.

“Hey Jude”

The plan worked. The crowd were cheering for Paul, unaware of the other Beatles existence.

It remained that way for the rest of the performance. The audience continued to believe that it was only Paul.

John, George and Ringo remained hidden, playing their instruments as the song went on, and Paul continued to sing. Paul then went on to sing the last line.

 

“Better, better, better, better, better! Waaaaaaaa!”

 

Then the lights turned on.

The entire crowd screamed

For the first time since 1969 the Beatles were preforming on a stage together and reunited. They continued the rest of the song and had every single person watching.

When the song finished John explained to everyone that they were officially back together while the others got ready for the other songs.

When they were ready they started preforming the rest of the songs. She Loves You, I Wanna Hold Your Hand, Help and Let it be went well. The crowd was singing along and nothing was going wrong.

They then went on to play Sgt Pepper and With a Little Help From My Friends. They did them together and had everyone cheering and screaming.

Next George sang Something but during the song he kept looking at Ringo with a oddly flirtatious look.

Then Ringo sang Octopus’s Garden but kept singing as though it was just him and George.

John decided that he had to ask since their behaviour had been like this for a while. After they finished Octopus’s Garden and before Come together John and Paul walked up to them.

“Hey can I ask you two a question?” John asked the two away from the microphones.

“Ok.”

“Are you dating?”

There was a moment of silence before George decided to speak.

“Yeah...” George answered while Ringo just blushed.

“That’s amazing!” Paul said. “And adorable!” John exclaimed and Paul pulled them in for a hug. John winced though making Paul concerned.

“How’s your arm?” Paul asked.

“It’s hurts but I should be fine for this song” He responded “Though we are going to have to use the backup plan.”

Paul nodded. They then separated and got ready for Come Together.

Once they finished Come Together John went towards the Piano and sat closest to the audience. A few momentary later Paul sat on his left and prepared to play.

“Ready?”

John nodded and then counted them in. They played the beginning part of Imagine together perfectly before John started to sing.

 

 

Imagine there's no heaven

It's easy if you try

No hell below us

Above us only sky

 

Imagine all the people

Living for today (ah ah ah)

Imagine there's no countries

It isn't hard to do

Nothing to kill or die for

And no religion, too

 

Imagine all the people

Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you'll join us

And the world will be as one

 

Imagine no possessions

I wonder if you can

No need for greed or hunger

A brotherhood of man

 

Imagine all the people

Sharing all the world

You may say that I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you'll join us

And the world will live as one

 

 

The crowd was screaming like crazy. Everything was blurring as John adrenaline rush came down. He turned and smiled to Paul. Suddenly out of the blue something happened.

 

Paul kissed him.
