When Love Lasts

Chapter 15

Meg went to the Beatles' apartment.

"Hey, lads" said Meg.

"Meg! Hi!" said John.

"So, how'd it go?" said Meg.

"How'd what go, love?" said George.

"Your latest show. Where I had you meet Chad and Jeremy" said Meg.

"Oh. It was great. We went to lunch with them after" said John.

"Yeah? How'd that go?" said Meg.

"Well, we had our usuals." said Paul.

"Chad had curried chicken. Jeremy had eggplant lasagna. Like that's what people order in an Australian restaurant" said Ringo disgustedly.

"I mean, besides food. Did you get along? Did you talk?" said Meg.

"Oh, sure. Did you know Chad was almost a surgeon just like you?" said John.

"No. He never mentioned it" said Meg sarcastically.

"He did, didn't he?" said George.

"Yeah, he really did. I was being sarcastic. Anyway, do you guys like Chad and Jeremy? They're great, huh?" said Meg.

"They're beautiful men. And dare we say good looking guys" said Ringo.

"That's great to hear because I've got some news" said Meg.

"I hope it's good news. Because we've got nothing but disappointment with our touring schedule" said George.

Meg laughed then took a deep breath.

"Chad and I are getting married" she said.

"What? That's so amazing!" Ringo cheered hugging Meg.

"Congratulations!" said John.

"That's gear, Meg!" said George also hugging Meg.

"Meg, that's... that's fantastic" said Paul. 

"It is?" said Meg.

"Trust me. It is" said Paul.

Then he fainted. 

"Paul? What's happening now?" said Ringo.

"Well, at least he said your engagement is fantastic" said John.

"But what if he didn't mean it? What if it traumatized him?" said Meg.

"Look. We got to know your fiancee in a restaurant and Paul was smiling the whole time. I think he meant it" said George.

Meg called an ambulance and it drove Paul to the hospital.
