Summary
“When I was fifteen I was thinking, ‘If only I can get out of Liverpool and be famous and be rich, wouldn’t it be great?’ I was always thinking I was going to be a famous artist. And possibly I’d have to marry a very rich old lady, or man, to look after me while I did my art.” John Lennon, 1975
An AU in which John pursues art (with the help of someone to look after him), Paul pursues music and the two of them meet in the middle.
