Rating: The ratings change, but usually nothing stronger than PG13.
Starring: The Beatles (mainly John and Paul), Lucy (OC), Pattie B., etc.
Time frame: It jumps around and will cover the early 60s before the fame and all the way to the late 70s, 80s.
Disclaimer: I'm sad that I don't own The Beatles. Everything written is fiction. Dates and history have been changed to go with the story. Photos used are not mine but have been edited by me! They are purely meant to give the story flavor.
Important: Remember that history has been changed! Jane Asher, Cynthia Powell, Yoko Ono, Sean and Julian Lennon never happened! Also, Jane Asher will be portraying Lucy in photos. Mary McCartney will be portraying Jude as a baby. Julian Lennon will be portraying Jude as a child. Stella McCartney will be portraying Harmony.
What if John Lennon had someone during his hard times, Beatle mania, everything? Would it rewrite the history we all know so well about The Beatles? What if this person was a girl? And what if it just happened to be a girl that had history and baggage with his pal Paul?
Let's see...
It was nearing the end of the year and Lucy's stomach was growing fast. Because of her small frame, it was very noticeable. Even though the ultrasound to determine a baby's gender was up and running at hospitals, they wanted it to be a surprise. Lucy and John decided that when the new baby arrived, he or she was going to share Harmony's nursery.
Lucy was in the backyard taking the laundry off the wire. Harmony was standing next to her mother, her arms wrapped around her leg. The little girl was getting much better when her balance, her walking was now runs. Paul came in through the front door. Since it was his turn to take Jude, Paul picked him up from school and came back to Lucy and John's place so that Jude could get his bags.
"Mum!"
Jude yelled into the backyard from inside the kitchen. His English accent thick as ever. With Harmony getting more devious and curious, one of the many things she had started doing was repeating what people said.
"Muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuummmm!"
She mocked her brother.
Lucy laughed and patted the silly girl on her head.
"I'm back here, love."
Jude ran out to where she was and Paul followed slowly behind him, hands in his pockets as he leaned against the house. :: (Photo on profile) ::
"Hey Luce"
"Hello, Paul.. Here are some of your clothes, love."
She handed Jude his clothes from off the line that she had folded which he went back inside of the house to put away. Harmony was still holding on to her mother's leg. Her big eyes were dead set on Paul with her finger in her mouth and a look babies give when they come in contact with strangers. Lucy tried to pay no mind to Paul. She understood that she would have to be around him all her life considering that they shared a child who would forever need them both. And even though Lucy was a gentle soul, Paul coming around unannounced bothered her. It was almost as if Paul wanted her to act a certain way when he made his presence clear and known to her. She didn't understand it and of course neither did John.
John, who came in through the back door and into the back yard, stopped when he saw Paul. :: (Photo on profile) ::
His mouth tightened, causing his lips to thin even more than they already were naturally.
"Paul..."
John acknowledged him.
Lucy tried to ease John's tension, who nodded, "Paul picked Jude up from school and now he is taking him for the weekend."
"Dadaaaaa!"
Harmony screamed and laughed when she saw her father. She was now looking at him with a big smile on her face. John's tight mouth fell into an instant smile. He slowly ran at her like he was going to get her. Her laugh became higher and she was now in his arms. He kissed the girl's head and her mother's cheek and then put Harmony back on the grass.
"I'm going to make some tea, yeah?"
John smiled at his wife, turning around and heading towards the house.
"Paul, why don't you help me a bit?"
John walked passed Paul and into the house, Paul following.
