    Summary

    A fill for this Kinkmeme prompt:

    The breakup is as messy as always, but there’s some contract cock-up which means they have to record one more Beatles album. Which is fine, because they’ve written loads of songs… they just all happen to be about how much they hate each other.
    …ie What if Too Many People/How Do You Sleep/Wah-Wah etc were Beatles songs

    Summary

    Sometimes it feels like it will never get better. Paul’s English teacher calls home, concerned about his slipping schoolwork, and his father watches him with that silent disappointment face as he talks down the phone. He isn’t violent afterwards, just clipped and cold and “Paul, I expected better from you,” and it hurts more than the next day when he gives him a black eye.
