Chapter 2: I Knew It Was You

*A/N: again dates and ages are off for a reason so this stuff could be happening in a certain year when it really say happened two years later*

That month The Beatles played regularly at The Cavern, they surprisingly became pretty popular too we had no idea how big they would actually become. It was like a dream come true for them all.

I was now four and half months pregnant. For being petite this baby was not, I was big really big. I felt like I was hiding a basketball under my dress. It looked like it too.

The Beatles have gotten extremely popular lately around town. They were getting recognized all over Liverpool. Fans, mainly girls, screamed and chased them all up and down the block, it was amusing until they started yelling lovey things to my Ritchie.

They started making a record and have recorded a song, "Love Me Do." When it was released it was such a hit, it become the number 1 in the UK chart, that alone was unbelievable.

This week has been so hectic, but the only good thing was I've been getting close to Ritchie again.

"Hey can we talk?" Ritchie asked me. I was sitting on the couch in his living room.

"Yeah. Let's go take a walk. Id like some fresh air." I said extending my hands out for him to grab and help me off the couch.

We walked out the door as Ritchie began to talk.

"Id like to talk about Hamburg." He fiddled with his fingers.

I got a little aggravated because I mean well he still cheated on me, a kiss is a kiss. Quite frankly I wanted to forget the whole ordeal. I didn't want to talk about it but I knew it was slowly eating away at him. I let him continue.

"When I first met you back in freshman year of high school you were the most fragile thing I've ever seen in my life. As soon as I saw you cry I thought to myself, 'how could anyone make this sensitive, sweet girl cry?' You were so adorable, and you became so important to me. What else can I say you were my first best friend." He smiled to himself, his eyes stayed glued at the ground. "I really liked you as soon as I met you. You know I said to myself if I was ever lucky to become your boyfriend, I would never hurt you. I felt like it would be impossible because I knew I would never want to make someone like you hurt by someone like me. I know what it's like to be hurt and it's not fun. In Hamburg I just couldn't stop thinking about you, and I just was so lovesick and homesick being away from you. I got really sad and so I got drunk I wrote you a letter, it was the last one I sent stating how happy I was when I wasn't. Then I took more drinks, I was becoming unaware of everything and I foolishly went to this club and there was this girl, she just looked like you in a way, and stupid drunk me....I kissed her. I swear for a moment I thought it was you, I pictured you, she slapped me and thank god she did I got snapped into reality." He chuckled nervously. "It wasn't you. When I went back to my room that night I just cried knowing what I did. I was hoping you wouldn't find out because I couldn't deal with that, but the next week the boys said they saw me and I don't know I panicked. And I-"

I grabbed his hand causing him to stop talking. It was silent, I put a smile on my face and we walked hand in hand down the park. He looked at me. I gave him a big smile and a big kiss. I didn't need him to continue his story, I trusted him. I know how guilty he felt, I know it wasn't anything serious. I kept telling myself it could've been a lot worse.

"For such a little girl you've got a huge baby growing." He laughed placing his hands on my stomach.

The baby kicked.

"Ow... Did you feel that?!" I said excitedly. I placed my hands over his.

"The baby kicked!" His mouth was wide open in disbelief.
