Summary
Paul and John never thought twice about sharing a bed... just two mates too tired to go home after a night of writing songs. But when Jim McCartney walks in one morning to find John still asleep in Paul’s bed, his reaction sets off something neither of them quite understand, forcing both boys to look at their friendship in a different light.

Summary
Sometimes it feels like it will never get better. Paul’s English teacher calls home, concerned about his slipping schoolwork, and his father watches him with that silent disappointment face as he talks down the phone. He isn’t violent afterwards, just clipped and cold and “Paul, I expected better from you,” and it hurts more than the next day when he gives him a black eye.

Summary
It’s a section of the newspaper Paul flips past every Sunday without a second thought. It was a crutch for people more romantically desperate than himself. No matter how yearning the single life sometimes leaves him, he’d never stoop to such means for love. But one morning a phone call from a random stranger draws more attention to the column than he ever wanted to give it.
-
He nibbles on his lower lip while it rings. A similar wave of emotions sweeps over him like every other hour of the day; anxiety seizes the muscles in his neck before the lack of reception deflates him like a balloon. After the fourth ring he considers hanging up. He waited too late and missed his opportunity. Reluctantly, he removes the phone an inch from his ear to hang up when the other line connects.

Summary
"I was thinking about what the doctor said. About you being too thin. I thought - since you're splitting from Yoko and all that, maybe you'd like to come back to England with me. Set you up with a doctor over there to help you heal. You haven't been home in ten years. I think it could be good for you."
AU: John survives the shooting but years of unhealthy dieting and not taking care of himself have taken their toll. To keep him from wasting away, Paul brings him back to Cavendish and becomes his personal chef.

Summary
"Ho, Paulie, does your bird even notice when you put that in?" Pete crowed suddenly. John's eyes flew open.
There was an unspoken rule that they didn't look, when they did this. You closed your eyes and thought of Grace Kelly and if you happened to notice the sounds anyone else made you dutifully ignored them. If you happened to glance at anyone else, you looked away as quickly as you could.
Paul was still leaning against John's door, his trousers undone, and as John's gaze helplessly slid to his lap, he gave himself a slow, deliberate stroke.
"Never had any complaints," he said easily, a filthy grin spreading on his round face.
"Aye, 'cause they couldn't feel a thing," said Pete.

Summary
"Paul answered the phone on a January morning. Hearing the familiar voice singing through the lines, he gasped, momentarily oblivious to the exhaustion clouding every note.
'My god,' he said breathless, feeling like a child all over again at the Fete, flushed in the crowding presence of the boy leaning over his shoulder as he hunched over the piano,
'What took you so long? I've been worried sick.'"In an alternate universe where everyone is divorced (don't worry about it), John Lennon is still shot outside of the Dakota on the eighth of December, 1980; but in this one he lives.
Months later, he and Paul finally get together after a lot of scheduling conflicts, and it goes about how you'd expect.Bookmarked by Jean Genie (LetYourselfGo)
