John came back while holding Julian on his hip. "Its yer turn next time."

"No way. Yer his dad. He loves you more."

"Hes 16 months old. How can he love?"

"Because hes a tini tiny human. When he can talk, he'll say he loves you."

"True."

John went over to sit beside Paul so he could also continue to work on the puzzle.

George walked in and decided to join the two. He sat on the other side of the table. Then, he started doing what John was doing.

Paul watched him. Then, looked over at John. "Do you two ever work on puzzles together?"

"Yeh. So what?"

"Do it right!"

"I didn't know there was a wrong way."

"Ringo!"

Ringo walked in upon hearing his name. "What?"

"Is there a right and wrong way to do a puzzle?"

"Of course. The right way is putting up the sides first. Then everything else."

"Thank you! Someone needs to teach these two how to do puzzles."

"Well, yer the one doing it with them so you teach them."

Paul sighed. "I expected that response."

"They're yer problem now."

"I feel like I'm teaching little kids how to do a puzzle."

"You are."

Ringo walked off.

"Okay. Geo, follow my lead and do what I do."

"What's that?"

"Put up the sides first. Then put everything else together."

"Never heard of that."

"You two are insane."

"Ye know, that's not really an insult."

"I know. Ye know, I wanna be done with you two."

John smiled widely.

"But I wont be done with you."

John frowned making Paul laugh. "Would you do me a favor Paul?"

"Shoot."

"Get me a beer."

Paul stood up as he spoke. "What am I? Yer slave?"

"Yes. You are."

"Ye know what, you could get yer own beer." Paul said sitting back down.

"Fine! I will!"

John stood up and went in the direction of the kitchen. Paul looked over at George, who just shrugged. "You made him that way."

"I did not! He did that to himself.......that lazy bloke."

John came back with some beer for everyone. As he sat down, he handed one to George, then to Ringo, and lastly, to Paul. "Thanks Lenny."

"Next time, you could get yer own."

"Fine with me. I never asked you to get me one in the first place."

"No, but I decided to be nice enough to get everyone one unlike you."

"Unlike me?! I'm not lazy. I don't sit around all day doing nothing."

"Neither do I! Remember, I'm a very busy man!"

"You really haven't been all that busy lately."

"I have so! I'm busy now!"

"Yer drinking beer and doing a puzzle."

"That's keeping me mind busy so I don't go crazy for staying with you."

"Ey! What's that supposed to mean?!"

"Beats me. I just said it to get under yer skin."

"It worked. I want you to shut that gob of yers or I will tie you up again.
