"Liar!"

I sighed taking a sip of my milkshake. "Nope. For the eighteenth time Shelby, I'm telling the truth."

My cousin sat back in the both smiling like a maniac. "So you mean to tell me, you've been gone forever and didn't even bother to tell me you were best friends with the Beatles!? Penny, that's something you tell a cousin!"

I chuckled and shrugged. "Well back what I met him, he was John. And Paul and George were just, well, Paul and George. They weren't the Beatles yet. They were just my friends."

Shelby arched an eyebrow. "Well now they are! Did you date any of them?" I shook my head taking another drink. "Kiss any of them?" I blushed and she smiled. "Oh my gosh! Which one!?"

I rolled my eyes. "Paul, it's no big deal though-."

"OH MY GOSH YOU KISSED PAUL MCCARTNEY AND YOU DON'T EVEN CARE?" She screamed slamming her hands on the table causing people to look at us.

I narrowed my eyes at her. "Shelby! Come on, it's no big deal, it was a onetime thing. He made it very clear he has no feelings for me."

Shelby smirked. "What about you though? Are you gonna jump on stage tomorrow and kiss him again?" She batted her eyelashes and puckered her lips. "Oh Paul! How I do love thee!" She said dramatically kissing the air.

I scowled at her and folded my arms. "No, I would never do that. Shell, you know he has a girlfriend. Hell, I've met his girlfriend!"

Shelby put a few dollars on the table and we walked out. She smiled and looked up at the billboard above the Ed Sullivan Theater. "I'm so excited! It's going to be awesome! I can't wait to see George! He's sooo cute! I'm so happy you bought another ticket for me!"

I rolled my eyes letting my seventeen year old cousin daydream and jump around in excitement. In truth, I was also excited for tomorrow night, but nervous too. I don't know how John would react to me just showing up out of the blue after leaving Liverpool behind unannounced and telling him I wouldn't be coming back! I was hoping he wouldn't be mad. I sighed and decided I would just have to see how this would play out.

I honked the horn again waiting for Shelby to emerge from her house. Finally the door opened and Shelby and her mom stepped out. Shelby got in the car next to me and my Aunt came to my window. "Hey Aunt Mary, good morning."

She smiled at me. "Morning Penny. Could you have her back by ten?" She asked tapping the car door.

I nodded. "Sure thing."

She smiled again. "Great," She stepped away from the car and waved. "By girls, have fun!"

We waved and drove off. Shelby was practically bouncing in her seat with excitement. I laughed. "Excited much?" She looked at me and nodded quickly. I shook my head and laughed again as I drove down the highway to Time Square.

Finally we reached the theater and parked on the sidewalk a few cars away. Shelby grabbed my hands and pulled my frantically down the sidewalk. When we reached the front doors she ripped the tickets out of my pocket and shoved them in the usher's face. "Here!"

The usher took the tickets and ripped them in two. "Enjoy the show ladies."

I nodded to him as Shelby pulled my inside to the theater. I looked down at our ticket stubs and found our seats. "Oh wow…we're the second row."

Shelby gasped. "Really?"

I nodded and walked to our seats. I was surprised at how nice of seats I had gotten. "Huh, sheer luck I guess." I said sitting down. The stage was dark but you could make out some giant arrows pointing to the stage where the guys were going to be playing.

After at least thirty minutes the theater went dark and the stage lit up. Music started playing and a voice started speaking over the speakers. "Welcome to the Ed Sullivan Theater! This is the Ed Sullivan Show now introducing, your host, Ed Sullivan!"

Ed walked out and everyone clapped. We stood in the middle of the stage and folded his hands together. "Now, yesterday and today our theater has been jam packet with newspapers and letters about these boys, and these veterans agree that never has this theater seen this much excitement stirred up then by these youngsters from Liverpool who call themselves the Beatles…"

The girls around us started to scream. I looked over at Shelby who was wide-eyed and screaming.

The host lifted up his hands quieting the girls. "Now tonight you will be twice entertained by them…ladies and gentlemen…" My stomach began to fill with butterflies. Ed smiled and motioned to the side of the stage. "The Beatles!" The girls erupted in a defining scream and the curtain shot up exposing the band everyone was waiting for.

Shelby sprang up and waved her hands around. "George! George!" She screamed at the top of her lungs!

I laughed and stood up so I could see them. The boys were smiling ear to ear, Paul counted off and they started singing. "Close your eyes and I'll kiss you, tomorrow I'll miss you, remember I'll always be true! And then while I'm away I'll write home every day and I'll send all my loving to you!"

My heart fluttered for some reason as Paul sang and strummed away at his bass. This song brought back memories of when the band left for Hamburg and of Paul's promise to write every day. I sighed and looked over to John. He was looking over the crowd as of looking for a particular person. His eyes scanned the crowd as he sang and when they got close enough to me I started waving my hands around and jumping up and down, hoping I didn't look like just another fan girl. Apparently I did though because he didn't notice me and kept singing with Paul.

After the song ended they bowed and George started strumming away at my favorite love song ever; Till There Was You. I was shocked; I had never heard them sing it before. Paul stepped up to the microphone and his silky voice poured over the crowd, serenading every girl in the audience. I smiled and started swaying to the music.

"Till there was you." He sang with a wink extracting a scream from all the girls and a blond teenager behind me fainted.

I chuckled. "If only he knew what he was doing to all these girls right now." I said to myself.

After singing She Loves You, George stepped up to the microphone and gave the girls a crooked yet charming smile. "Hello, I'm George." He said and I chuckled; same old George from Liverpool. "And we're gonna do something we've never done before, so Paul's gonna sing you all a song but we're gonna go. So, bye." He said and walked off stage quickly.

The audience laughed and Paul walked on stage with an acoustic guitar. He smiled. "Hi there, well this is a new song from our newest record, and it's called Yesterday. I wrote this after a dear friend of mine left. So if she's listening…I hope you like it."

I chuckled. Don't worry Paul any girl you write for will love- wait...friend who left? Oh shit…

He started strumming slowly. "Yesterday. All my troubles seemed so far away, now is seems as though they're here to stay, oh I believe in yesterday. Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be, there's a shadow hanging over me, oh I believe in yesterday."

I looked around and no one was screaming or talking, just listening. I looked back at Paul and prayed he would look at me just once. He can't see you; you're just one of a thousand girls in this audience.

"Why she, had to go I don't know. She wouldn't say. I said something wrong now I long, for yesterday." He sang sadly.

My heart was aching beyond belief and I was hoping this song wasn't about me, because if I hurt him that much... I started thinking about how I could get his attention. I couldn't yell right now because unlike some girls, I knew that was rude. I looked around and got an idea. You're going to look like a complete idiot… I got on my tiptoes and stuck my hand up. I felt my face heat up in embarrassment, feeling like a moron. Paul looked up as he sang and arched an eyebrow; I felt my heart jump realizing he was looking at me. I waved it around a few times and smiled. He narrowed his eyes and shook his head as he sang, smiling in the end. His smile spread ear to ear as his song ended.

I was astonished. I had gotten Paul to see me. Then something hit me, after hearing that song now I was going to have to tell him I was never coming back home.

I guess you just have a knack for breaking Paul McCartney's heart, huh Penny?
