*Set right after the Beatles film 'A Hard Day's Night'* After everything that's happened, Ringo feels as though he'll never find love- no one would ever want to be with an ugly, self-conscious, down on his luck drummer like him, he thinks. To him, he isn't even worthy of a second glance- Paul's grandfather was right about everything. Even when he tries to live life, he just screws up, like he always does. But when he meets a certain girl, his life changes forever. Perhaps, maybe this drummer isn't so worthless after all... Rated 14+ for drug use, swearing, mentions/mild depictions of intimacy, and mentions of depression and suicidal thoughts (might be a TW for some, so I'm warning you just in case) This story is FICTIONAL, it is NOT meant to be an accurate account of the lives of the Beatles. Since it is set after AHDN (a movie which features fictionalized versions of the Beatles, played by themselves), the characters in this story will be mostly based on their film personas. There will be quite a bit of lore in this story that actually happened to the real-life Beatles for story purposes, but some events will be altered because, again, this story is FICTIONAL. I don't own anything, this is purely a story I am making for fun bc I'm just weird

You're drawn to Ringo when you meet him at a club, but warnings make you keep your distance. Still, he's determined to win you over-and you're torn between protecting your heart and giving it to him.

In the summer of 1983, twenty-year-old Elianne Rose Carter spends her days working at a small diner tucked along the California coast. Life is simple. Take orders, refill coffee cups, survive double shifts, and dream about a future she isn't brave enough to chase. Quiet and painfully shy, Elianne prefers to stay unnoticed, finding comfort in ocean sunsets, old records, and the familiar routine of the diner she calls home. Everything changes the night a group of young men walk through the diner's doors. To everyone else, they're superstars. To Elianne, they're just customers looking for dinner. While the rest of the world is obsessed with Michael Jackson, Elianne barely knows what to say to him. She doesn't ask for an autograph. She doesn't stare. She doesn't treat him like a celebrity. And for the first time in a very long time, Michael finds himself fascinated by someone who sees him as just another person. What begins as occasional visits for coffee and pie slowly becomes something neither of them expected. Between late-night conversations, stolen glances across the counter, and quiet moments away from the spotlight, an unlikely friendship begins to grow. But falling for the most famous man in the world was never part of Elianne's plans. And for Michael, loving someone who belongs to a normal life may be the one thing fame can never give him. Love Served Hot is a slow-burn 1980s romance about first love, finding comfort in unexpected places, and discovering that sometimes the person who changes your life is the one who never tried to.
