You start highschool, after teasing in your old school you are ready to start out fresh. you ditch your glasses and wear makeup. You don't look like you use to. Then you meet a guy who discovers your real face. What will he say?
After class had finished you walked down the hall to see John waiting by the school exit.
"Hey Jude" he says.
"John are you gonna practice today?" You ask walking down the sidewalk with him. You wondered where the others had gone.
"Yeah, but they'll meet me at my place. They got something they wanted to do." He says. You nod to his response.
"John are you gonna pick me up for the party tomorrow?" You ask. John smiles.
"Aren't you going with macca?" He smiles.
"John I know you and the others are setting me up with him but I would appreciate if you didn't do that." You say in a stern voice.
John gave you a smile, still not taking you seriously.
"Look John, I don't know Paul. And to tell you the truth I just don't trust anyone to be in a relationship." You say looking at the ground.
"I understand Jude. We'll stop, sorry it's just Paul had been moping around all summer cause a girl. We thought he would never get over her. I'm sorry Jude. We just want Paul to be happy. If you want to come and see us play you're welcome to" John says you give him a nod and a smile.
"Thanks Johnny" you smile.
You two walked to your home. You waved bye to John. He had invited you to watch him and the others practice. You thanked him and walked into your home.
You sighed and got started on the little homeowork you had and crashed into bed. Your locket that was hung on a nail on the wall next to a picture of your father and mother holding you as a child.
You looked at the locket.
Should I tell him. What if he gets mad at me. Why do I even tell him after that. This is all insane.
Would he hate me? Maybe. Would the others hate me. Would they hate the real me. Is the old me the real me or is this the real me.
You get dressed dressing in one of your causual shirts that was white and your dad's black shorts. They were quite long. You made a habit of using your dad's old clothes. You thought they looked better than most of the girl clothing. Or rather they were just easier to move in general.
(Side note this takes place in 1957. Or around that time. So Paul would be 16. I know this isn't gonna be the exact Beatles story so please don't expect that. But I still wanna try to be accurate enough to the time period. So here's some references on the shorts and blouses at the time. They kinda cute.)

After putting on the clothes and doing your hair in a up do. You headed to John's place your mom finding it funny how you wore your dad's old shorts. They were a little big but his belt helped. They covered your knees so it shouldn't been much of a problem.
You walked to John skipping the way. You walked up to his door and knocked. Ringo opened the door. He looked at you and giggled at your shorts.
"What the hell are ya wearing?" Ringo says.
"Shorts what else." You roll your eyes and walk in the others sitting on the couch in the living room. They all giggled.
"Ya look like me father" George laughed and held his stomach to prevent him from dying. Some tears fell down his eyes for laughing so much. John just smiled. Paul giggled a bit.
"Hey these are my dad's shorts! They are comfortable." You sass.
"You really are one of the boys are ya " Ringo chuckles again.
You blush out of embarrassment feeling small. You knew that they were just teasing but you felt really self conscious at that moment.
Paul looked at Ringo "ey, I think Jude looks rather adorable." Paul says placing the tea cup he had on the table. The cup hitting the dish with a little clink.
You smiled "you think so?"
"Yeah luv, I haven't seen another bird wear those rather brave of ya. You look foking adorable" Paul gave a cheeky smile. He was blushing. He gave you one of those killer smiles that made you giggle like a idiot.
"Thanks Paul, are you all done practicing?" You say.
John nods his head. "Nope we are just about to continue the party is tomorrow." John says.
"We've been practicing all week!" George groans.
"We are getting paid geo, plus you've been wanting to get that record player so suck it up" Paul says.
George just gave annoyed face and sighed knowing Paul was right.
"Hey Jude here I have this for ya" Ringo says.
"Huh? What" you say and Ringo hands you a ring.
"A ring? Ringo are you proposing? I just met you!" You joke.
"So is that a yes?" He continues to joke you both chuckled.
"I bought it for myself but it didn't fit me. Doesn't even fit my pinkie. I'm sure it's a girl's ring. You have it" he says grabbing you hand and putting the ring on your finger.
"Wow, it's pretty thanks Richie" you smile. He smiles back.
"We should get back to practicing, let's go Ringo!" Paul says heading toward the garage.
They all head pushing each other in a joking matter. You smile and follow them still looking at the ring. It was just a sliver ring with small very detailed flower engravings. It was really pretty.
"So how many songs will you play tomorrow?" You ask the boys who get ready to start.
"About four, nothing crazy." John says.
"Well are you gonna stay after the party? Or leave when you get paid?" You ask.
"I'm staying for a hour, there's a movie in the cinema I wanna see" George says.
"Nah, the rest of are gonna hang in my place after. Ringo found a stash of booze so they are staying the night. And my folks won't be here for the weekend." John says.
You nod.
"Do you wanna join us? We will just be goofing around and such." John says you nod and smile.
They start playing you humming along to their singing. You smiling like a idiot or started dancing like one.
After that the sun was setting. You waved bye to everyone.
"You want me to walk you home luv" Paul asked. You wanted him to, but if he saw your mom it would be a big problem.
"Maybe next time John always walks me home" you say looking at John who took the hint and hurried over to you.
John waved bye to everyone and started walking with John. Who had a both and pencil in his hand.
"What are you writing?" You say curious.
"Song lyrics, what else." He says with a smile.
"Paul does the same how cute." You chuckled.
"Hey wanna sign my book?" John says.
"Sign?" You question.
"Yeah, the others signed the front page. You can leave a note if you want. Just makes the book more valuable to me." He says with a smile. You nod and take it. To John, you're a strange fellow. But you're my closest friend and I trust ya. Love ya you big idiot. -jude.
Next to it you drew a picture of some flowers. Something you use to draw all the time cause it was a simple design.
