Alice's P.O.V

April 23, 1974

It was my thirty first birthday today. I was up at five in the morning as I had a tune stuck in my head, and I needed to play it otherwise I'd forget it. I quietly got out of bed so I wouldn't wake Paul. When I crept out of the bedroom, I quickly yet quietly made my way down to the basement. I shut the door when I got down there, grabbed my songbook and sat at the keyboard.

"Alright, don't fail me brain" I said before I started playing the tune.

Linda's P.O.V

I woke up to the sun shining through the small opening in the curtain and the faint sound of a keyboard.

Must be Alice

I looked over at Joseph and gently nudged my husband.

"What is it Lovely Linda?" Joseph muttered tiredly.

"Do you hear Alice playing the keyboard? I think she's working on a song" I said

"You should go tell her to not work on her birthday" Joseph said

"Why me?" I asked

"Because she always listens to either you or Paul" Joseph said.

"Alright then" I said, climbing out of bed.

"I'll meet you in the kitchen for breakfast" Joseph said. I smiled and leaned over to quickly kiss him before making my way out of the bedroom. On my way, I had run into Paul.

"Linda, do you know where my wife went off to? I woke up and she wasn't in bed with me" Paul said

"I heard her on the keyboard" I said.

"I told her no working on her birthday. This is her day to be as lazy as she wants to" Paul said.

"Jospeh and I were thinking the same thing. Care to follow me to the basement?" I asked

"I'd love to" Paul said.

Alice P.O.V

I was so deep in my music mind palace that I hadn't even heard people come down until I heard Linda's voice.

"How long have you been down here?" I paused my playing and turned to see both Paul and Linda.

"I've been down here since five, oh, and thanks for bringing me out of my mind palace"

"I didn't know you had a mind palace" Paul said, joining me on the bench. Linda came over and stood beside me.

"Well I do. I call it my music mind palace" I said.

"Love, its your birthday. This is your lazy day" Paul said, placing his hands over mine.

"I know, but I couldn't just let the tune go to waste. You must know what I mean, right Paul?" I said

"I suppose I do" Paul said with a smile followed by a kiss on the cheek.
