P.S. I Love You

Chapter 1 - Kelly

Kelly's P.O.V.

Hi, my name is Kelly Valentine. I'm 22 years old, I was born and raised in Liverpool, and I've always dreamed of becoming a singer just like my boyfriend. Who is my boyfriend you ask? He happens to be the bassist of a band called The Beatles, everyone calls him "the cute one", and he was also born in Liverpool. If you guessed Paul McCartney, you're absolutely right!

Paul and I have been dating for 3 years. We met at the cavern club one day while he and his band were performing. Only we didn't necessarily talk to each other until the concert was over. We became great friends after days of getting to know each other. Paul developed romantic feelings for me about a month later and asked me to be his girlfriend, and I accepted of course. 1960 is when we started dating. Not only that, I became great friends with Paul's bandmates.

The year is now 1963. Before I get ahead of myself, let me tell you about my family. I live with my mom, Laura, and my little brother Connor, he's 13 years old. My dad sadly passed away from leukemia last year. It was hard for my family, but we pulled through about a few months later.

Moving on to my friends, their names are Delilah Ramirez and Tori Klein. We've known each other since we were kids and we hang out together all the time.

Now that you've met the people in my life, let's get on with my story!

I was going for a walk one day as the sun is shining down. While I was walking, I felt a pair of hands cover my eyes.

"Guess who?"

"Let's see, is it John?" I asked with a giggle. As soon as I said that, the hands moved away from my eyes and the person showed himself to me. It was my boyfriend! "No, it's me!" He said. "Paulie!" I said excitedly. "Hello, sweetheart." Said Paul.

We wrapped each other into a hug and kissed on the lips for a split second. "What are you doing out here?" I asked. "Well, it's a beautiful day, and I figured I'd come out for some fresh air. But then I saw you and I just had to come over." Paul said. "I'm very glad you did. It always brings a smile to my face whenever I see my handsome prince." I said with a smile.

I spent the rest of my walk with my Paulie. He had his arm around me while we walked next to each other. Paul was also nice enough to walk home with me. His house is across the street from mine, by the way. "Kelly, darling, I'd like you to meet me at my house tonight at 8 PM." Said Paul. "What for?" I asked. "There's something I have to tell you, and I'd rather not say it when there's other people present." Paul said. "Okay. I'll go tell my mom when I go inside." I said. Paul nods and kisses my cheek. "See you tonight, love." He said.

After Paul and I went our separate ways, I entered my house to be greeted with a hug by my little brother. "Kelly, Kelly, you're back!" He said. "Hi, Connor. Where's Mom?" I asked. "She's in the kitchen." Said Connor. "Ah, great. Thanks, little brother." I said.

Connor gives me a thumbs up and winks. I walked into the kitchen and found my mom making tea. "Mom?" I said. "Hi, sweetie! How was your walk?" Asked my mom. "It was good. I ran into Paul while I was out there." I said. "Ah, he's such a cutie!" My mom said. "I know right? Anyway, he asked me to meet him at his house later tonight because he said he has something to tell me." I said. "Oh. Do you have any idea what it could be?" Asked my mom. "No. I'll find out when it's time." I said. "Good point. Would you like some tea?" My mom asked. "Sure. I'd love a cup." I said.

I sip my tea in the living room with my mom and Connor. A little while later, I checked the time and saw that it was five minutes to 8:00. "I'll be back later." I said. "Okay, honey. Say hi to Paul for us." Said my mom. "Will do." I said. I made my way over to Paul's house and saw him sitting on the steps. He looks up at the sound of my footsteps. "Ah, Kelly! You made it!" He said. "Well, you told me to meet you at 8:00, and here I am." I said. Paul nods at my words. "Come, let's sit down in the living room." He said.

The two of us sit on the couch. "So, what did you wanna tell me?" I asked. Paul was silent for a moment. I then saw a few tears fall from his eyes. "Paul? What's wrong?" I asked. "I'm... I'm leaving for a tour next week." Said Paul. "For how long?" I asked. "Five months." Paul said. I let out a gasp and put my hand over my chest. "That's a long time!" I said in shock. "I know it is. We won't be able to see each other for a little while." Said Paul. More tears fell from his eyes. I took a tissue and started wiping his eyes.

"Will you call me every day while you're gone?" I asked. "Of course I will. I'll never spend a whole day without thinking about you." Paul said. It didn't take too long for tears to fall from my eyes. Paul pulls me close to him and starts rubbing my back. "I'm gonna miss you during our time apart." I said. "I'll miss you too, sweetie." Said Paul. He kisses my forehead as I continued to cry. "What should we do for our final days together before you leave?" I asked. "We could do whatever we want. And maybe this weekend, we'll go for a romantic stroll in the moonlight." Paul said.

I stopped crying after a while. "I'd like that." I said. I wrapped Paul into a hug. He keeps a tight hold on me as if he never wants to let me go. About an hour later, I made my way home. My cheeks were still tear stained as I entered my house. "Hey, sweetheart." My mom said. She notices my sad expression. "Uh-oh, what's the matter?" She asked. "Paul told me that he and his band are leaving for a five month tour next week." I said.

Once again, my tears start to fall. My mom wraps me into a hug. "Aww, I'm sorry. You two can still stay in touch, though." She said. "That's true. He did say he'd call me every day." I said.

I got myself ready for bed after a few minutes. After getting under the covers, I try to fall asleep, but I end up crying my eyes out. So I spent the rest of the night drowning my pillow with my tears.
