Summary
“See ya at the Derby, lads,” Paul says as he puts on his tweed coat, which fits him annoyingly well (and also hides his arse annoyingly well). “Can’t wait for Goodison Park to welcome you back.”
“Me neither,” John purrs, and chuckles at George’s rude hand gesture as the two Evertonians take their leave.
Ringo’s not chuckling. He’s busy wiping his pants with napkins, glaring at John all the while. “The fuck was that all about?” he demands.
That means it’s game on, John thinks, picturing Paul McCartney’s face in his mind and imagining how pretty it’s gonna look in defeat.He can’t wait for the Merseyside Derby.
In the season of 1959-60, John Lennon and Paul McCartney are both made captains of rival football clubs, Liverpool and Everton, making them natural enemies.
But it's difficult to remember that, as with every encounter they grow more and more fascinated with each other.Bookmarked by 007_strayyxx

Summary
Paul hated hospitals. They smelt weird and had a lingering feeling of despair over them and he had zero nice memories in hospitals, so he avoided them on principle. Still, he was sitting in a hospital room.
John hated hospitals too, but John was the whole reason they were in a hospital to begin with, so he didn’t have much room to complain.

Summary
John Lennon, tired dad, walking disaster, expert at all things inappropriate, is just about desperate enough to take the first job that’ll have him. He doesn’t expect it to land him inside the polished office of Apple Corps, wrangling calendars and crises. And he definitely doesn’t expect his new boss to be bloody millionaire Paul McCartney, charming, infuriating, and far too good at making John forget he’s supposed to be working.
Somehow he ends up as a personal assistant, a job he’s wildly unqualified for, except maybe in sarcasm and showing up late. Between flat whites, childcare, and more longing than he'd ever like to admit, John discovers that working for Paul might be the biggest mess of his life… and somehow, the best thing that’s ever happened to him.
Edit: On hiatus. This work is NOT abandoned.

Summary
Paul teaches music and at a secondary school and John comes in once a week to teach the guitar. Over the span of two Christmases they muddle through their mid to late twenties with a couple of cats, a car that's always on the verge of breaking down, and a bunch of nosy kids who might be more invested in their relationship than they are.
