Summary
“Are you dead, Paul?”
John heard the echo of his own breathing at the tip of that question. The hand holding the joint froze before it reached his mouth.
“It doesn't really matter anymore, does it?”

Summary
It is perfectly fine for Paul to sleep on John and fix John's tie and stare into John's eyes while singing love song after bloody love song for years on end, but he's never mentioned Whatever This Is and the clear implication is that neither of them should.
Set during the filming of Help!, 1965.

Summary
During the Lost Weekend, John decides to start rumours that he's queer. Paul reacts.
Written for the kinkmeme prompt:
"I was trying to put it 'round that I was gay, you know–I thought that would throw them off–dancing at all the gay clubs in Los Angeles, flirting with the boys...but it never got off the ground."
John Lennon interview with Lisa Robinson for Hit Parader, 1975.
I want a fic showing what this would look like. Doesn't matter if he's just pretending or if it's real, or maybe he doesn't even know himself. Enough people think it's real for it to "get off the ground." How do his friends react? How does Paul react? Doesn't have to be endgame John/Paul, but I'd like that. Mostly I want to see John dancing and flirting in gay clubs. (Maybe Elton's showing him around at first?)

Summary
For the kinkmeme prompt:
Paul hears on the grapevine (or directly from John) that John has a new love called David. Obviously he’s not going to give John the satisfaction of asking about him, but all he hears is how complete John’s life is with David in it, and how John only wants to share his bed with David from now on. Turns out David is a cat, but Paul doesn’t know that.

Summary
John and Paul both end up at the 1975 Grammy Awards, and at Elton's after party. They haven't seen each other since the break-up. It's awkward! It's emotional! It's sexy! They finally talk. And more?

Summary
"He was caught breathless when John asked, 'So, what do you think it feels like?'
Paul coughed and fixed his eye on a hole in the floorboard. “What does what feel like?”
John scoffed, 'To kiss a bloke. What do you think it’s like?'"
It's a simple question, really, but with some complicated complications. Paul gets ready to defend himself; but, suddenly, he doesn't have to.
It's a story of two friends discovering something wonderful about each other.
(P.S. Peak moment, voted in by a friend: "Don't tell me. . . show me.")

Summary
John wasn't even meant to be in Liverpool, wasn't meant to overhear that there'd been an accident, that Paul was hurt or worse.
Paul comes off his moped in December 1965.
A little h/c fic for @Crumblingcookies as part of the @beatleskinkmeme Secret Santa.

Summary
Paul had heard about it from Tara. And Tara had heard it from Groovy Bob, and he had heard it from one of his other artsy friends.
Apparently John had been fooling around with men.
Paul didn’t buy it. Not really. It was just too out of character, too absurd to be true. The thought of it—John with another man—it was ridiculous, wasn’t it?
--
Rumours were going around about John—and Paul just needed him to say they weren’t true.
He hadn't expected them to be.
It never made the papers. But things spiralled, all the same—just between them. And Paul wasn’t sure whether he could handle it all.

Summary
"John. You're everything. Don't you know you’re everything?"
It's messy and pathetic, as far as declarations of love go, but at least it's something. It's something that Paul had, either consciously or unconsciously, been trying to tell John for over a decade.
Now he's said it. Or something close to it, anyway, something honest for once. And yet, somewhere deep inside of him a little voice is screaming, hurting, crying out.
He'd thought that John had already known.
He'd thought that John had known the whole time.
He'd built everything on it.

Summary
“I love you. I’m in love with you.”
Paul has to close his eyes for a second. John’s gaze on him is too intense, too wanting, it makes him feel like he’s on fire. He tells himself that he must have imagined what he just heard.
“What?”
“I’ve been in love with you for ten years. Since we were kids. Practically since the day I met you.”
Paul wonders why the hell John is telling him this. What could it possibly achieve?
Or, John tells Paul that he loves him, and Paul's not ready to hear it. This causes a lot of problems for them both.
