The monkees find love

Chapter 6

The next morning, the quartet were all downstairs. It was one of the only times Micky woke up warly.

"Think you'll start wakin' up this early every day Mick?" Mike managed to ask.

"No. This is just a one time thing."

"Are you sure? I could always wake you up this early everyday."

"No........I don't need that. Besides, I got myself a date with Taylor this evening and I want to be ready."

"So, you wake up this early because you wanna be ready for a date that isn't for 12 hours."

"Well, maybe I just wanted to because I felt like it."

"Davy spoke up and pointed to Micky: "Alright. Who are you and what have you done with Micky?"

"Its me Davy. Seriously."

Davy walked up to Micky and examined him from head to toe. "Yep. Its him alright."

"Davy, quit that." Micky said motioning for Davy to stop.

"Sorry Micky. I just can't think of a reason why you, of all people would wake up early."

"Okay. My brain woke me up this morning very early. That's why. I couldn't get back to sleep."

"Seems legit." Peter said.

"Now, you know why I always wake up early Mick." Mike said as he fixed his hair trying to make it neat.

"Where you goin'?" Micky asked.

"No where. I'm just fixin' my hair. Cool it will ya."

"Hey, Davy, Peter, you never told us about Marie and Lucie."

"Its going great with Marie. She's awesome and she makes me happy."

"Yeah. What about you Davy?"

"Lucie is a groovy kid Micky. I honestly don't know what I'd do without 'er. Ya know, I think these four girls changed us for the better."

"Yeah. Oh, Micky, you are going to have to change you're date tonight because we have that gig unless you want to invite her over." Peter suggested.

"That's a good idea Pete. I think I'll do the same. I'll invite Shaun to come by."

Mike walked over to the phone and picked up the reciever and dialed Shaun's number. After a few rings, she answered it. "Hey its me. Listen, me and the boys have this gig tonight and I was wondering if you wanted to come. Great. I'll see you tonight." He hung up the phone and walked over to the couch and sat down.

Micky was the second one to call her girlfriend. "Come on fellas. We need to practice for tonight." Davy said as he walked over to the stage.

Mike got back up from the couch and approached his guitar and picked it up and put the strap over his shoulder. Now, they were waiting for Peter and Micky who was still on the phone.

"Hey, Micky, hurry up will ya."

"Sorry Mike. Hey. I gotta go. I need to practice for tonight." Micky hung up the reciever and approached his drums as Peter picked up the bass. They started playing Love is Only Sleeping.

She looked at me,
and the emptiness in her eyes were cruel to see.
Then she turned away and said,
"Once I loved but love is dead."
And I whispered "Sometimes love is only sleeping."
She said: "I cannot cry,
and I cannot give or feel or even try,"
and her voice was hard and cold
Then her sweet young face looked old.
And I whispered: "Sometimes Love is only sleeping.
Through the endless days and nights,
Could not help but wrap herself in sorrow. (sorrow)
Through the endless days and nights,
She waited for a shiny new tomorrow.
Love was sleeping, sleeping.
She looked at me
And her smiling tears werew warm and sweet and free.
And the moonlight kissed her eyes
As it minged with our sighs
And she whispered: "Sometimes love is only sleeping.
And she whispered: "Sometimes love is only sleeping.
