"Alright boys we have to get serious, we have to finish recording these songs today before we start filiming next week."
"What else do we have to record?" Ringo asked John.
"Uh, Can't Buy Me Love, Any Time At All, and uh," John thought to himself, "oh! And Tell Me Why."
"All right, then let's get to it!"
Ringo was always excited about recording, whether he was singing or not.

"The boys have been at the studio a long time." Jude said.
"Yeah, they have," Cynthia took a sip of her tea, "but they do have to finish soon, they start filming their movie next week."
"What's it called again? Their names are always so strange, I can never keep track!" Lucy sounded confused.
"A Hard Days Night," I told her, "hopefully with the movie the will increase record sales."
"I hope so too, the weddin is gonna be expensive."
"Oh my god, I just remembered somethin!" Jude became excited as she changed the subject.
"What is it?" I looked to my sister and laughed.
"Its been more than 6 months! Ye can try and have yer own kid again!" I let out a sly smile. "YER NOT!" My cheeks got red as I nodded. "OH MY GOD! CONGRATULATIONS MICH!" I twisted my face as she said Mich.
"So Michelle, how's Heather doing?"
"She's alive."
"That doesn't answer my question."
"Yes it does!"
"No it doesn't!"
"The doctor said she wouldn't live more than a month, well its been 5 months! So yeah, it does answer yer question!"
"Does she still need to take her medicine?"
"Thankfully no, the doctor gave her permission to stop takin them last week."
"Awe that's great!"
Heather began crying.
"Speak of the devil."
I let out a small laugh and got up from the couch and into Heather's room.
"Hey-" Paul came home to find 3 women and a nowhere man in his living room. "Where's Michelle?"
"Heather's room."
"What about Heather?" I walked back into the living room holding Heather.
"Hey love."
"Hey Paul," he walked over and gave me a kiss, "did ye finish recordin?"
"Yeah, we start filmin in 3 days."
"How long will ye be filmin?"
"8 weeks if everythin goes accordin to plan." As Paul was talking, Lucy, Jude, and Cynthia we staring and smiling at Paul. "What?"
"Nothin." Jude smiled at Paul as she walked into the kitchen.
"Do ye know what this us about?"
"Mhmm." I smiled as I was bouncing Heather in my arms.
"Do I wanna know?"
"YES YE DO!" I looked over to Jude, "sorry," she whispered.
"What is it Mich?"
"Yeah Mich, say it." Lucy and Jude began playfully taunting me.
"Shut yer mouths!"
"Mich just tell me!" He chuckled.
"Oh for god's sake, SHE'S PREGNANT!" Cynthia shouted. Paul looked to me.
"Really?"
"Yeah," I whisphered as I had a small smile on my face.
"That's wonderful Michelle!" He walked over to me and gave me a hug.
"Well we should go." Cynthia picked up Julian and headed for the door. "JUDE! LUCY!"
"Comin, shut yer trap!" Jude dragged Lucy off the couch and walked out with Cynthia. I sat Heather down on the couch and turned on the telly for her.
"YER HAVIN A KID! IM SO HAPPY FOR YE MICH!" Paul picked me up and spun me around.
"I just realized somethin."
"What?"
"We don't have room for another kid."
"Let's move! Into a nice house, on a farm maybe!"
"Ye can't do that, ye need to travel too much."
"Well we should buy our own house, no more apartments."
"Can we afford a new house?" He gave me a sassy look. "I know, I know."
"Do ye wanna go now? I've only got a few days before I start filmin."
"Yeah, why not. C'mon Heather."
"Comin mummy."
She hopped off the couch and waddled over to me.
"Paul, go turn off the telly."
"Sure love." He turned it off and walked over to me and gave me a quick kiss. "Let's go."
We got into the mini and started searching for open houses. We finally found a nice, 2 story house that was away from the city. We went inside, there wasn't a lot of people there, thank god. Paul walked in while I was getting Heather out of the car.
"Hi-" the real estate lady's face went blank, then he realized who she was. "Paul..."
"Jane, what are ye doin here?"
"My mum got me in the business, what are ye doin here?"
"Lookin for a house."
"Why? Don't ye have an apartment? IF YE DONT YOU CAN MOVE IN WITH ME!"
"Uh, Jane, I have an apartment, a very nice one, but it only has 2 bedrooms."
"Isn't that enough?"
"I need more than 2."
"Why?" I walked with Heather on my hip, then Jane saw me. "WHAT IS SHE DOING HERE!"
"Jane calm down!"
"NO PAUL! WHY IS SHE HERE?"
"Because Jane! She's my wife! And we have a daughter, and we're gonna have another kid! Now stop actin like I'm yers and grow up!"
"What is goin on?" I set Heather down, she began walking around the room.
"This is all yer fault!"
"What is?"
"I was suppose to be with Paul! Not you! I was suppose to have Paul's kids! NOT YOU! Not like you've ever even have a kid!"
"What do ye mean?"
"YE CANT HAVE KIDS! YE HAD TO ADOPT THAT LITTLE RUNT FROM AMERICA!" Jane pointed to Heather.
"DONT INSULT MY DAUGHTER YE BITCH!" I slapped Jane upside the head.
"MICHELLE!" Paul pulled me away. "Remember what the doctor said about stress," he whispered in my ear.
Another real estate agent told Jane to go home while they showed us around the house. Paul, Heather, and I all loved the house.
"We'll take it!"
"Terrific! Come to my office tomorrow and we'll do the paper work!"
We all shook hands with the real estate lady, and walked out of the house.

"PAUL! WAKE UP!" I yelled from the kitchen. He stumbled out, still in his pajamas.
"What is it love?"
"We need to see the real estate lady today, we leave in half an hour, get dressed." I said while walking to the couch to give Heather her breakfast.
"Alright, I'll be right back."
"Alright," I walked over to the telly and turned on some cartoons for Heather.
A few minutes later Paul walked out, he was dressed in one if his suits.
"How do I look?"
"Like a Beatle."
"Funny."
"I know." I walked over to couch and picked Heather up and held her by my hip. "Ready to go?"
"Did ye eat?"
"Yes I ate, are ye ready to go?"
"Mhmm."
Paul didn't like me holding Heather, he couldn't hold my hand or wrap his arm around my waist or anything. We drove to the real estate agents office just in time.
"Good, yer here! I thought ye were gonna be late! Please have a seat."
"Thank ye!" Paul said nicley. "Mich, do ye wanna go in the lobby? Keep Heather entertained?"
"Sure," I stood up from the chair and carried Heather to the lobby.
Paul stayed in there for about an hour before he had me come in and finish up the paper work.
"Congratulations," the lady said, "ye now have yer own house. Here are the keys."
"Thank ye," Paul and I shook her hand.
We walked out of the office and back to the car. The drive back to the apartment was rather quiet. Heather walked in first and she headed straight to the couch.
"I'm gonna call the movers."
"When should they be here?"
"I'm gonna say 2 days."
"2 DAYS! Paul that's way too soon!"
"If we don't do it in 2 days, we won't move until July!"
"Fine! Call the bloody movers. I'm gonna go start packing up our room."
"I'll join ye in a minute."
"Mhmm."
I was tired, I didn't feel like packing up.
"Michelle," Paul walked in a few minutes later, "I know ye don't feel like packin right now, I'm sorry,"
"No Paul, its fine," I lied.
"No its not," he gave me a hug, "yer tired, well cause, y'know, anyway, I can tell, go take a nap on the couch, I'll pack up a few rooms."
"What about Heather?"
"I'll tell her to pack up someone her toys, don't worry."
"Thank ye." He gave me a kiss on the head.
"Go take yer nap."
I did as Paul said, I took a long, blissful nap on the couch, so long, I slept the whole night. I woke up the next morning around 5:00, the house was all boxed up, the only things remaining in the living room were the couch and the telly. I let out a yawn and walked to the boxed up kitchen. I got out a few eggs from the virtually empty fridge and pulled a pan out of a box and started cooking. As I was cooking I heard a door open and someone dragging their feet.
"Mornin Princess." Paul stopped in his tracks and gave me a bitchy look. "I'll call ye whatever the fuck I wanna call ye."
"Whatever I'm too tired to aruge the princess shit today."
"How late did ye stay up?"
"I dunno, maybe midnight."
"PAUL! WHY WOULD YE STAY UP THAT LATE?"
"We move tomorrow love, I need to get this done."
"Yer still tired, go back to bed."
"I'll be fine."
"Whatever ye say."
I gave him a smirk as I poured him some tea and we sat together on the couch until Heather woke up.
"Mornin darlin."
"Morn mummy." I walked out of her room with her on my hip.
"Want some cereal?"
"Yes!"
"Alright, go on the couch with daddy." She waddled over to Paul and sat down. I came over with her little bowl and sippy cup. "Here ye are darlin."
"Thank mummy."
"Welcome sweety."
I gave her a kiss on the head as she stuck her had in the bowl and started shoving cereal in her mouth while her big eyes were focused on the telly. That day, all we did was pack up the house. Heather was confused the entire time. At the end of the day, everything was packed up, every last thing. That night Paul and I slept on a bare mattress on the floor, Heather still slept in her crib with her purple blanket and octopus. The next morning the movers came and loaded boxes into the truck, I reached for the last box.
"Don't lift anythin love."
"Why not?"
"I don't want ye to get hurt."
"Fine." I rolled my eyes. "For yer information, most of these boxes weight less than Heather." I gave Paul a smirk as I lifted Heather off the ground.
"Yeah, yeah, shut yer trap." He gave me a kiss as he loaded the last box into the truck. "Let's go."
I put Heather into the mini and got into the passenger seat. Paul got into the car a few minutes later and grabbed my hand. The car ride was silent for a bit, then Paul turned the radio on, Love Me Do began playing.
"Hey Heather,"
"Yes!"
"Do ye know who sings this?"
"DADDY!"
"That's my smart girl."
I looked back to her and smiled, she seemed to be enjoying the music. Eventually we arrived at the new house, the moving truck pulled up behind us not long after we arrived. I got Heather out of the car as Paul walked up to the front door. Paul unlocked the house and we walked in.
"Welcome to our new home Heather."
