I'm looking through you; you're not the same." The year is 1976 and the Beatles were a legendary band of the past. Old news, even. A distant memory that, at one point in time, took the entire world by storm. But that was years and years ago... Since, the band has gone through a pretty bitter break up. Though, memories don't fade away so easy. Paul McCartney knew that better than anyone else. Paul notices himself thinking back on old times more often than ever before. Dwelling on the unresolved problems between himself and the others... Well, the problems he has with one person in particular. John Lennon. Paul wants to repair the apparent issues left behind him with his ex-partner... his ex-lover, and it's no secret to anybody in his "new" life. One day, even his wife, Linda, suggests to Paul that he should go and visit the lad in New York City. So? What else is he to do, but... make a surprise trip? The rest of this story lies between these pages. ====================================== - Completed - Ranked #1 in the Mclennon tag and #1 in Starrison - Pretty Angsty - Disclaimer: Some quotes used in this story are paraphrased/referenced from the original "Two of Us (2000)" movie.

"running late?"

Paul, a scared delinquent meets John, the local artist who is known for his mischief. One day Paul decides that John has "healed him of his illness" and decides to stop taking his pills. But, Paul doesn't understand when people he meet end up dead in his dreams. What ensues is thrilling, romantic, and deadly.

John Lennon is a stereotypical bad boy- he does drugs, skips school, drinks and has sex. Paul McCartney is a stereotypical good boy- he never goes out late, always does his homework on time and always looks picture perfect. What will happen when these two very different boys get put into an arranged marriage together?
