Can't buy me Love **Finished**

[me]

The next two weeks went on by so slowly. Peggy really missed Ringo. Though he called her almost twice a day, she really missed him being around. She really hoped the time would go by faster so they could explore what their relationship could evolve to.
A day after that a man delivered an immense bouquet of flowers at her place. She smelled the beautiful red roses and smiled as she closed he door behind her. She searched for a card to see what Ringo had to tell her. But she felt her heart drop when she saw it wasn’t Ringo’s handwriting but Paul’s. Dear Peg. I don’t want you to think I’m a prick, coz I’m not. I really like you. See you soon. Love Paul. She stared at it wit her mouth open. There was also something else written there but it was really small so she could hardly read it. maybe it’s better if you throw this card away…you know…for Ringo Peggy threw the card away and sat down. letting her head rest in her hand. What was this all about?

After two weeks Peggy watched the guys arrive on London airport again on the TV. She could not be there, because it would be to busy. After 5 hours of waiting the doorbell rang. Peggy opened the door to see it was Ringo. They fell in each other’s arms and they hugged each other. Ringo and Peggy sat down holding each others hand all the time as Ringo told Peggy all about their trip. Peggy just looked into Ringo’s eyes, listening to every single word coming out of his beautiful mouth.

Though Ringo had hardly any time to see Peggy, they did spend every free time together. They were really in love. Peggy didn’t think about the flowers Paul send her anymore and Ringo luckily never asked about it. It was very short after that Peggy moved in with Ringo and quit her job, to be there more often for her boyfriend. They became a famous couple loved by the fans and the media. Where they were going the media was too, but they always took the time to pose for photos and let ringo sign autographs for the fans.

“What will you be wearing to Paul’s birthday party?” Peggy asked her boyfriend.
Ringo mumbled a few words, which were completely unregocnizable, and they both had to laugh about that.
“I think I’m going to wear this.” Peggy said grabbing a white miniskirt and a black top out of the closet showing it to Ringo.
“Oh No no. Paul might get strange ideas from that. I wouldn’t want Paul to steal you from me.” Ringo said jokingly. But Peggy suddenly remembered it all again. She tried to smile at ringo, but she turned around quickly when she felt she couldn’t. Did he suspect something? She didn’t even really like Paul that much and besides, she was totally in love with Ringo. Then she remembered the flowers and the card again. What was that all about? Was Paul really trying to pull her or was it just flirting like he did to any other person with a face and boobs? Then she turned around to Ringo again and told him not to worry, because Paul wouldn’t even get a chance with her. Ringo smiled again and hugged her.

That evening they arrived at Paul’s house at 7. It was already very busy and you could hear the music like miles away. Peggy and Ringo got out of the car. Ringo was looking good tonight. He had these great jeans on fitting so well. On top of that he wore a simple black t-shirt, but he was stunningly hot. So was Peggy. She had curled her hair and had the white miniskirt a black top on. Everyone outside looked at them and smiled when they walked by.
The door to Paul’s home was open so they walked in. There were balloons everywhere and there were already people vomiting and being drunk.
They searched for Paul and found them after a short search in the corner with some people. But when he saw Peggy and Ringo he jumped up and ran towards them with his arms spread.
“Whooooo, Peggy girl, looking good tonight.” Paul said as he hugged her and checked her out.
“Stop that Paul.” She said smiling. “Anyway, happy birthday party boy!” Peggy gave him three kisses on the cheek. Paul frowned.
“Not on the lips?” he asked.
Peggy looked at him and then at ringo.
“We usually do that. At least Pattie is always doing that.” Ringo said grinning.
Peggy just stood there for a while. Looking from Ringo to Paul who was standing there with this big smile on his face. Did she want this? Ringo seemed to be okay with it. Besides it was normal…we’re friends right? She said to herself to decide whether to do it or not.
“Oh well.” Peggy said and kissed Paul on the lips briefly.
“Aww, is that it? You couldn’t even call that a kiss. Is she always kissing you like that Ringo? Because that is like well... so bad.” Paul said.
Peggy felt so embarrassed. She did what he asked for. She kissed him and now he was making fun of her. It wasn’t like they were supposed to make out with each other.
Ringo saw the look on Peggy’s face and told Paul to stop and congratulated him with his birthday.
When John came in Paul excused himself and walked to his other friend. Peggy and Ringo sat down next to George, Pattie, and other people, having a great time.

That evening went on by very fast though Peggy couldn’t remember that much of it, because when she and Ringo were leaving, they were already drunk and Ringo even smoked some pot.
When they woke up the next day they both felt awful, so they decided to just stay in bed and hug and kiss a bit.

************

Two days later when Ringo was at the studios, Peggy got a phone call.
“Hey Peg.” She heard on the other side of the phone. It was Paul.
“Hi Paul.” Peggy said. “Ringo’s already on his way to the studio’s.” she said.
“I know.” He said. “I’m there as well, well my car is already parked in front of it, and I’m about to get in.”
Peggy didn’t know what to say, so she just listened to Paul breathing.
“Err… I hope you will forgive me for being so mean.” He said.
Peggy assumed he was talking about what he said about her kiss at his birthday and she kept listening.
“I didn’t mean that. I mean….well, I should be happy you kissed me. And it felt good, but the feeling I got from it scared me. So that’s why I said what I said.” He said as he started breathing deeper.
Peggy didn’t really understand what he was saying so she asked what he meant.
“Peggy… I wish you had picked me. I’m in love with you. I think you’re beautiful.” He said.
Peggy’s hand started shaking and the only thing she could do was hang up the phone.

She put on her coat and got in the car. She drove away, but she had no clue where to drive. This was all too much. She loved Ringo, but now Paul was showing his love for her too. Was it a joke, did he mean it? And did Ringo know about all this? This was confusing her and the only thing she now knew where to drive to was to Ringo.
As she parked the car in front of the studios she waited for a while. Ringo was in there, but so was Paul. Both their cars were parked next to her.
“Shit” she thought to herself. “What am I doing here?”
But she got out and walked in. There she saw the red light burning, so they were busy recording. She waited in the hall, till George suddenly got out of there to go to the toilet.
“Hey Peggy. What are you doing here?” he asked.
“Hi George…well I don’t know.” She replied.
George raised his eyebrow and asked her if there was something wrong.
Peggy told him she was just waiting for Ringo.
“Well, you can go in now. We’re having a short break haha. He’s there.” George pointed at Ringo.

When Peggy stepped inside the studio Ringo came walking to her and hugged her. Peggy hugged him back, but she saw Paul standing there in the corner and he was also looking at her.
“So what are you doing here honey?” Ringo asked.
“Well, I just wanted to see you and let you know that I love you.” She said out loud, hoping Paul could hear all this. But she knew this wasn’t getting her anywhere so she decided to leave again.
“I see you tonight dear.” Ringo said as he kissed her goodbye.
“Bye all!” she said waving. She turned around but when she closed the door, she quickly looked in again to see Paul still staring at her. She quickly closed the door.

*******************

“Paul! PAUL!” John yelled tapping him on the shoulder.
Paul looked at John. “What!?” he yelled back.
“Whoo now, what’s wrong? Don’t bite me.” John said as he jokingly moved away from Paul.
“Paul where is your head these days?” Ringo asked.
Paul knew exactly where his head was, but he couldn’t tell his friends. He plugged his bass and started singing.

**************

Peggy drove home crying. As she got home she made herself some tea and sat on the couch the whole afternoon just thinking. She absolutely loved Ringo, but why was Paul trying so hard to be with her now? Why didn’t he say that before she went out with Ringo? Why didn’t he mention this all before?
At the end of the afternoon she knew what to do. She really wanted to stay with Ringo, but she had to go and talk to Paul. This couldn’t go on.

So later that evening when Ringo was in the shower, she called Paul.
“Paul McCartney.” She heard on the other side.
“Err..” she stuttered. “Paul, it’s me.”
“Peggy?” he asked.
“Yes. Ehm, I need to talk to you, but I don’t really know where and how. It has to be…like…well just the two of us. We need to talk about something.” She said.
“I think I know what you mean.” He said. “Well err.. Let’s see. Why don’t you come over to my place tomorrow morning?”
“Your place? Is that a good choice?” she asked.
“Well, I wouldn’t know where else to meet, but if you want the press to know about it all, it’s okay with me and we’ll meet someplace else.” He said.
He’s right, Peggy thought. So they decided to meet at Paul’s place tomorrow morning.

ooohhhh its so good!

The next morning she arrived at Paul’s luxury apartment. Paul had already opened the door and welcomed here with a cup of tea.
“Please come in.” he said. “I’m a bit nervous.”
Peggy was nervous too, but she didn’t want him to know. She sat down by the table.
Paul sat down on the other site of the table, looking at Peggy what made her blush.
“Okay, Paul.” She said as she sat down straight. She coughed. “Well, I don’t know where to begin…what…well what can we do about this?”
Paul put his head in his hands.
”I don’t know.” He said. “I can’t help it. I just told you about how I feel.”
“Yeah I know, but maybe it would have been a little better if you said it the day we met.” She said as she looked at him. “I mean…it was strange for me. The Beatles liked me and wanted to go out with me. Do you have any idea how that feels? Have you got any idea how I lived those hours? Then I decided I couldn’t make a choice, because you all have got something special Paul. You all have and I didn’t want to be the one to choose. So you had the chance to say you wanted to go out with me.”
Paul just sat there and listened to Peggy.
“I didn’t go out with Ringo knowing we would be in a relationship later. I didn’t know, we just liked each other very much and then we fell in love.” She said.
“But…well…the fact that you’re here with me discussing this, means that the love isn’t that deep.” Paul said.
Peggy got up throwing her cup of tea to the wall.
“Don’t ever say that again!!! You don’t know what love is, mister I break hearts easily!” she yelled pointing her finger at him. “You have never loved anyone like I love Ringo. Don’t ever talk to me again!!!! Peggy had tears in her eyes now and ran away. She got in the car and drove home to Ringo as soon as possible.
