"Macca." John's trembling voice cut through the silence. His hands cradled the weak body of his loved one, "Macca please look at me."

A teary pair of doe eyes twitched to look at the requesting man. John's breath hitched as he stared into the hazel irises, his eyes looked so dull. The twinkle that appeared as he smiled or when he was performing was a distant dream, something unreachable, "John." his weak voice replied.

"Paul, please, please stay with us, stay with me." The older boy could feel his heart shattering, they had nearly made it. They were so, so close. 

"John, don't cry." a frail arm raised up to wipe tears that John had not even noticed had fallen from his hollow cheeks, "It'll be okay."

"No, no, don't say that. You can't say that, Paul."

"John, I love you."

"No, this isn't goodbye, you can't go," John's voice cracked, "I need you."

"Please say it. I need to hear you say it."

John shook his head helplessly, "Paul I love you, I love you so much."

A tired smile worked its way onto the dying man's face, "I love you too."

"Paul." John sobbed weakly.

George and Ringo were huddled in the background, wrapped in each other's arms as they watched- teary-eyed- at the scene before them. 

John tightening his hold on Paul, looking him dead in his eyes, "You're so beautiful."

Paul chuckled faintly, "Even in this state?"

"Always."

The younger man's chuckles faded away into silence. He didn't have long. He knew. They all knew. The lack of food and water would catch up to them all eventually. Help was on the way. They just wouldn't get here fast enough. Paul could feel the life seeping from his body.

"John." he managed to whisper, croakily.

"Paulie?"

"I'll wait for you." Paul smiled as the last glimpse of light faded from his eyes.

"No, no!" John cried out, "Wake up! Please, god, please. Wake up." his voice cracked loudly as sobs filled the air, "Paul, paul, paul." he chanted in between mighty tears that cascaded down his muddy face and hit the forehead of his love. 

"John..." Ringo reached out tentatively, "John, you need to let go."

"No!" John croaked out, pulling Paul to his chest and rocking him back and forward, "Paul wake up."

"John! He can't wake up, he's gone." George spoke up, "Please John, just let him go. We all knew this would happen."

"We were so close," John whispered brokenly, "We nearly made it."

"It's okay, we'll get help soon." Ringo attempted calmly, he wrapped his arms around the sobbing man.

"Is he ever coming back?" John sobbed.

"No." the drummer breathed, "He's in a better place now. He'll be waiting for you."

He felt John nod against him and drawback. 

"I'll see him again some time." 

With that, he leant forward and pressed a tender kiss on Paul's cold forehead and gently shut his eyes. 

"I'll see you soon, my love."

Yes. It is midnight and this idea hit me like a ton of bricks and so here is my story. I know I've not finished the Mcharrison series and I do plan to do that, I just have so many ideas for Mclennon and I want to get them down before I forget them all 😂

Thank you all for reading, I hope you're having a good quarantine 😂

Q: Which do you prefer: the album Let It Be or Abbey Road.

A: This is tough, but I think I prefer Abbey Road. 
Let It Be is a great album and I adore all the songs (like.. all of them.) but Abbey Road is the one I listen to most. But, let's be real, all the albums are the best albums.
