Alice's P.O.V

After Paul and I got dressed, we went to go find Ethel.

"Do you think she knows what we were doing?" I asked

"Judging by the look she had on her face, maybe she did. That's why we need to talk to her about it" Paul said

"I didn't want to have the sex talk with her until she's a teenager" I said

"Well she caught us so we might as well tell her now" Paul said. We were now standing outside her bedroom door. I knocked on her door.

"Ethel, it's mommy. Daddy and I need to talk to you" I said.

"Okay" Ethel quietly muttered inside. I opened the door. Paul and I quietly stepped inside her room. Ethel was sitting on her bed, looking down at her lap. Paul and I sat on either side of her.

"Sweetie, we need to talk to you about what you saw earlier" I said. She nodded in return but she didn't look up at us. I think she was still a bit embarrassed.

"Do you know what we were doing?" Paul asked. Ethel gained the courage to look up at him.

"You and mommy were making a baby" Ethel said. Paul and I looked at each other in surprise.

"Yes. How did you know that?" I asked. Ethel looked my way.

"Linda told me about it" Ethel said

"When did she tell you?" Paul asked.

"She told me one day when we heard yelling and screaming coming from your bedroom. She said that you two were having sex. That's how mommy's and daddy's make babies " Ethel said

"Oh" I said. I was feeling kind of relieved that we didn't have to explain what we were doing to Ethel but I was disappointed because it wasn't Paul and I who gave her the sex talk.

"Well, mommy and daddy don't have sex just to make babies. We do it because we love each other" Paul said

"Just like how you two kiss and hold hands because you love each other?" Ethel asked

"Yes. Ethel, when you're older and in love with a boy, you're going to start having sex with him" I said

"I'd rather you wait until you're married" Paul said.

"Do you understand all this, sweetie?" I asked. Ethel smiled and nodded.

"I do mommy" Ethel said.

"Good. Start getting your things together. The bus is going to be here soon" I said. Paul and I got off the bed and left her bedroom.

"I think she handled that quite well" Paul said

"She's quite mature for a nine year old" I said.

We were on our way to Sheffield. Paul and I were talking with Denny and Helen.

"She walked in on you two?" Helen asked

"Yeah. We had to have the talk with her afterwards" I said

"How did she take it?" Denny asked.

"She took it quite well actually" Paul said.

"Linda had the talk with her before though. Do you two know when you're getting married?" I asked

"We were thinking after the tour is over" Denny said

"It's just going to be a registry office wedding, like you two had" Helen said. I smiled, thinking back to day Paul and I married each other. I could tell Paul was thinking about it too.

"After being engaged for almost five years, we couldn't wait any longer. It was a spur of the moment and a registry wedding was the best option we had" Paul said

"Plus, I'm not a fan of big fancy weddings" I said.

"We hope you two can make it" Denny said.

"Of coarse we will" Paul said.

We arrived at Sheffield City Hall which is where we were having our show. Paul and I were in our dressing room. We had gotten ready so now we were sitting on the couch, sharing a cigarette.

"You looked beautiful on our wedding day" Paul said

"Are you still thinking about that?" I asked with a smile.

"I always think about our wedding. It's the day I made you mine forever" Paul said

"How did we last being engaged for so long?" I asked

"I wanted to marry you sooner, love. It's just that we were both so busy" Paul said

"I know, but we're married now" I said

"And we're going to be married forever" Paul said. He put out the cigarette and leaned over to kiss me. His lips were so soft against mine. I never wanted our kiss to end. There was a knock on the door, causing us to pull away from each other.

"Mr and Mrs. McCartney, it's time to go on" a voice said.

"I suppose we should go now" I said.

"We're continuing where we left of when we're done" Paul said. He grabbed my hand, pulled me off the couch and led me out of the room. We made our way to the stage where we met up with our bandmates.

After our last song, Paul and I joined hands and waved at the audience. We quickly rushed off the stage and were greeted by Linda.

"You guys amaze me more every time you play" Linda said

"Thanks Lin. One of these days, we should bring you up and you can play my keyboard for a bit" I said

"I don't think so" Linda said

"Come on, you've watched us perform every show on this tour. I can teach you the songs. The last show, you can join us on stage. What do you think Paul?" I asked

"I think that would be fun. Come on Linda, you have do it" Paul said

"Fine, but only for the one show and it has to be the last one" Linda said

"Great. You can join me for rehearsals and I can teach you. You'll be able to learn the songs by our last show" I said.

"I can't believe I agreed to this" Linda said, shaking her head.

"You'll do great Linda, especially if you have Alice as your teacher" Paul said

"Just remember this is a one time thing. I'm not joining the band or anything" Linda said

"We know Linda, but who knows. You might change your mind" I said. Linda shook her head and walked off. I couldn't wait until our last show.
