Ringo's POV
February 26, 1966
"Congratulations Mr Starkey!" John said as he walked up to me and shook my hand. I felt so proud right now I could bust. I smiled at Lola who was cuddling our new baby boy, Jason Richard Starkey. He had Lola's blond hair and my blue eyes and my nose. He was the cutest thing I'd ever seen! I looked over to Paul and George who were sitting off to the side. They both looked pale and like they were lost in thought. Everybody was here to help us since it was George's birthday when it all started happening. I'd hate to see what they're gonna look like when it's their wife and kid going through all that.
"He is so adorable!" Wendy sighed.
"Look again he's got Ringo's nose!" John grinned.
"I like it!" Maria shot back. "It's very cute!"
"Well, thank you Maria, but, I'm already in a relationship." I shrugged playfully, trying to hold back my grin and laughter.
"Not you!" Maria laughed and swatted at me but I dodged it.
"I knew a guy named Jason once." Grace said randomly so everybody ended up laughing.
"Really now?" John said putting his arm around her. Grace laughed some more.
"Yeah, but never mind. Hey Paul, George, are you ok? You look a little green." She said and everybody looked over at the two sitting in chairs across the room.
"We're good." Paul choked out. John giggled and Grace hit him in the arm.
"I think we better be getting home now." Wendy said walking over to Paul, looking concerned. "Let me know if you need anything." And then they left. Eventually everybody left and finally we got to leave and go home. As we were pulling into the drive way I remembered that we had gone to George's party and left our mothers at home and I was so worried and confused that I forgot to call them... this is not good.
Paul's POV
It seemed like the next few months flew by March, April, May. And here we are waiting any day now. I am extremely worried because we are two days past our due date so this is going to be a June baby. John and Grace were coming over and so were my brother and my dad and Wendy's sister and mother and dad. I was sort of hoping that they would be here right after it was born but that might not happen now. Then the door bell rang, I slowly got up to answer it and it was John and Grace.
"Hey Paul, how yuh doing?" Grace gave me a small hug. Then she walked over and sat down next to Wendy and they started talking.
"So are you coming in or not?" I said to John who was just standing in the doorway.
"Huh? Oh sorry I was just thinking about something." He grinned. "Have you ever heard the song "June is busting out"?!" He laughed crazily as he jumped into the house. I surprisingly didn't react, I guess I had too much on my mind. I followed John into the living room and sat back down next to Wendy.
"So do you have any names picked out?" Grace smiled.
"Um, yes, for a boy we decided James Paul McCartney junior and for a girl we picked out Christy Lee McCartney." Wendy smiled.
"So are you excited?!"
"No Grace, not at all." Wendy said sarcastically. Grace laughed.
"So what if it's twins or something?" Grace grinned.
"No, shut up! Don't jinx me!" The girls laughed and continued chatting as my mind wandered. I haven't gotten any sleep in weeks, I felt awful.
" 'ey Paulie, come 'ere a minute." John motion for me to follow him into the kitchen. I slowly got up and followed, what could he possibly want now? I gave him a questioning look as he leaned against the counter. "You know Paul, you really need to perk up a little." He said seriously. I just looked at him. "See right there you look like you don't even want to have a kid." John grumbled.
"Of course I do!" I said starting to get angry.
"Well you sure don't show it! Haven't you seen the way Wendy keeps looking at you?! She's worried about you, I don't think you understand your own situation!" John's eyes flashed slightly.
"How would you know?! You haven't been in this situation before! And I'll tell you it isn't fun, or relaxing, or wonderful! It's hell!" I shouted back as Wendy and Grace walked through the door.
"Is everything ok?" Wendy said looking worried. "Paul?"
I didn't know what to do, had she heard any of that? Was she suspecting what John was? I couldn't take it any longer I just had to get away from everything, so I walked out the back door and climbed in my car.
Grace's POV
I stood looking out the door where Paul had just walked out, mouth hanging open in shock.
"John, what did you do?!" I said turning to John. Wendy stared out the door, starting to cry.
"I didn't do anything!" John threw his hands in the air.
"You did so John Lennon! Now what happened!" I kicked John in the shin. He winced and sat down in a chair. Wendy also sat down, crying quietly and looking out into space.
"I was just trying to help him out! He just over reacted because he's stressed and what not!" I rolled my eyes and looked at Wendy. Then I ran out the door and jumped in our car to go find Paul.
George's POV
As the due date drew nearer the battle of the baby names continued. We had finally decided on William for a boy's name but we couldn't agree on a girls name.
"I still like Katrina!" Maria said suddenly as we sat down for dinner.
"And I still like Alexandra." I said slowly, grinning.
"Oh, you're both impossible!" Tessa said, stabbing her fork into her food.
"Katrina." Maria whispered.
"Alexandra." I whispered back.
"Agh! Stop it already I can't take anymore! So I am going to make the ultimate decision! You're just going to have a boy! End of discussion now eat!" Tessa shouted like she was angry although you could tell she really wasn't. Andy started barking at her for yelling and we all laughed then started eating.
