Lost in England

Step Inside Love

The six of us walked into a diner that John said had really good food. I agreed; it smelled wonderful!

Ringo found us booth in the corner that was partially hidden. I hoped that no one would interrupt us. Especially if Sir Paul and I would be telling how we got here.

A waitress came over and took our drink orders; we all got Cokes.

"Ok, Tessa, tell us what's going on." George looked at me with an expectant look on his face.

I took a deep breath and looked over at Sir Paul.

"I'll tell them." He said with a smile.

"Lads, Tessa and I are from the year 2017. I know it sounds crazy, but it's true."

"If you're from the future like you say, then where have I seen you before? You look so familiar." John said skeptically.

Here we go, I wonder how this will play out.

Sir Paul looked at his younger self before replying.

"My name is Paul McCartney--"

John stared at Sir Paul for a second before bursting out in laughter. Ringo looked back in forth between both Paul's with a confused look. George seemed like he was coming to terms with the idea of us being from the future. Paul's mouth had dropped open and his hazel eyes had widened in shock as he stared at his future self.

"This bloke's a laugh, isn't he, Paulie?" John said, elbowing Paul in the side.

Paul turned to look at John and cleared his throat before speaking, "John, they aren't joking."

George spoke up,"Paul's right,John. When I went with Tessa to find...erm what do you want us to call you?" He turned to Sir Paul. "I mean, it will get confusing with two Paul's."

"Well Tessa calls me Sir Paul, but it would be weird if you all called me that, but I do agree that we wouldn't want to get confused. Just call me Paul for now and I'm sure John will come up with a nickname for me."

John leaned back in his seat and smirked. "I've just been named the master of nicknames."

"Just call me Macca. John already does." 21 year old Paul spoke up.

"Sounds like a plan, Macca." I smiled at the four Beatles. Or five I guess. or four because Sir Paul is an ex- Beatle, but that still makes him a part of The Beatles. I'm confusing myself, I'll just shut up.

"So, how did you get here? Do you have a time machine? Are you a Time Lord?" Ringo was practically bouncing in his seat. Lesson here, never give Ringo caffeine he will be crazy! Just imagine him drunk!

I laughed,"No Ringo, It's nothing as cool as that! I was moving to England for a new beginning. I had just finished college and I've always wanted to live here, so I thought why not go now. I landed at Heathrow and found myself in the car with Sir Paul. It was raining so hard I could barely see out of the windows! We started hydroplaning and before I knew it, we were sitting on a bench in the park down the street. Soon we found you guys. You know the rest."

"I believe you." George said.

"So do I." Paul and Ringo chimed in.

"It's just so strange, how does something like that happen?"John said.

"I really don't know. Maybe we were sent for a reason, or this could all be a dream." Sir Paul met John's eyes as he spoke. I could sense the connection between the two of them, and I could tell John could too.

John smiled,"I believe you, Paulie."
