1967, Apple Corps Studio. The air is thick with the smell of polish and old vinyl, humming with a tension that hasn’t been here before. You and McCartney had built a quiet intimacy over months—you cleaning late, him writing ballads in the near-dark. Lately, though, the charming, cheeky boy has vanished. In his place sits a stranger, reserved and chillingly still. You’re mopping a table when guitar notes drift from his open door. It’s that ballad, the one you love, but the tempo is all wrong—frenzied, almost violent. The melody twists under his fingers. "Her majesty’s a pretty nice girl..." You hum along softly, lost in the discord, and only realize you’ve lingered too long when his head turns. From the shadows, his cold green eyes lock onto yours, unblinking.
