    Summary

    On April 28th, 1961, 8:26am Paul McCartney’s alarm goes off.

    “Paul was on the precipice of something brilliant, and every nerve in his body could feel it. What was about to take place was something deeply woven into the tapestry of his fate and history. Paul was nothing of the person he once was, and the person he was about to become was just on the horizon.”

    Inspired by Groundhog Day and “A Day in the Life” by The Beatles

    Summary

    Set in 1962, the young and fierce Beatles perform yet another marvelous show at the Cavern Club, Liverpool. To the crowd, it was a life-changing experience to witness; but for John Lennon, the show was a complete disaster. Aside from the occasional missed entrance and hiccup, the one most worrying John is Paul. Paul, often quick with humor and critique, is anything but himself. Determined, John seeks to figure out what is the matter.
    After the show, John is hit by news that they need to write a song by the following day. Paul and John spend the night at the McCartney home, scheming away to make the perfect song to pitch for tomorrow's meeting.
    But as the night grows long and emotions become tense, both Paul and John begin to question the nature of their friendship, their band, and their futures.

    Summary

    perhaps if they ever talked about it, they would have to acknowledge some things that neither of them wanted to. It was something that was delicate, only held together by the silence they kept.

    Summary

    When John writes a romantic short story for a writing contest, he never expected it to win and actually get published. Nor did he ever expect anyone to read the silly story— especially not Paul, who was mysteriously similar to the love interest.

    Summary

    Something ticked in Paul’s mind as the familiar words washed through him. When he looked at John, his friend was already looking at him. And suddenly, it all became clear: He remembered having that conversation more than 50 years ago. He remembered it too well.

    He had been thinking about it for years, wondering what he should have understood, how he should have reacted. If it was as meaningful as it had felt or if his memory had just romanticized it.

    “I don’t think a love like that obeys to any rules,” John went on, unaware of Paul’s agitation. “It’s not something that humans have created, not like a societal thing. It’s deeper than that, and that’s what some people are afraid of I guess, because they can’t control it. Whatever laws they create, they can never control it. A white lad will fall in love with a black girl.” He paused. “A lad with another lad. You know.”

    --

    Summer 2019, 77-year-old Paul wakes up feeling surprisingly good. One tiny problem: he is back in December 1965.
