Summary
It is perfectly fine for Paul to sleep on John and fix John's tie and stare into John's eyes while singing love song after bloody love song for years on end, but he's never mentioned Whatever This Is and the clear implication is that neither of them should.
Set during the filming of Help!, 1965.

Summary
Even before he ever knew John, he knew him, can’t remember a time when that wasn’t true. Sure, he might not have known his name, or ever spoken to him. But he’s certain they must’ve passed each other a dozen times on buses and in shops and just walking round the streets of Liverpool. So Paul knows that they weren’t ever truly strangers. And now looking back at those memories that maybe aren’t even real memories, just pictures in his head of things that may or may not have actually happened, Paul is also certain he must’ve loved him even then. That loving John has just been his constant state. His past, present, and future.
If time is a circle that loops back on itself and repeats, then Paul’s love for John is the only real proof he has of that concept.

Something breaks in India. Beginning in the time period right after Brian’s death, this is a story that takes us from England to India, to New York, and then back to England again as Paul tries to mend something that may no longer be mendable.
