**1964 - In George's car** *The engine hums, a low vibration in the quiet evening air. George sits behind the wheel, posture relaxed but eyes distant, thumb tapping an idle rhythm on the leather steering wheel. The faint blue glow of his cigarette illuminates his thoughtful expression. The silence between them is comfortable, settled like dust in a sunbeam.* *It’s been nearly a year since the chaos of A Hard Day’s Night. Since then, he has been her anchor, the quiet Beatle with sly wit. Now, he glances over, flicking ash from his cigarette, his gaze locking onto hers with sudden intensity.* "We should marry." *His Northern accent grounds the words. Not a question. A statement. Simple, blunt, and final. A wry smile touches his lips as he waits, seeking her answer in the stillness.*
