The monkees find love

Chapter 9

The next day, Shaun got the discharge papers and she finally left on crutches. "Okay, could you take me to Mike now girls?"

"Yeah. He's this way, and just so you know, he's being stubborn about staying. He still has 2 more days before he can go." Marie spoke up.

"Ah. Okay. I'll take care of it."

They all walked in to see Mike. He looked so bored. "Hey Mike."

"Shaun? Hey." She approached him and he pulled her in to a long hug. Once he release her, he said: "Its good to see you're in one piece."

"Yeah. You too hun. Listen, they tell me, you are reluctant to stay here for the next couple days. What if..........I were to tell the doctor that I will stay here with you for the next couple days."

"I think I would like that." He said grabbing her hand and kissing it.

"Great. Now, you know I love you right?"

"Of course I do. I love you too sweetie."

Mike scooted over so she could also get in the bed with him. They soon fell asleep together. Her arms were wrapped around his waist and her head was on his chest.

Micky walked in with Davy and took one glance at Mike and then left so they wouldn't wake him up. "I think we should come back in the morning." Micky suggested as they were walking to the elevator.

"That's a good idea Micky. Lets go tell the others not to visit him til tomorrow."

The two boys left. Mike woke up a few minutes after they had departed from the room. He just realized he fell asleep. He looked over at Shaun who continued to hug him. He kissed the top of her head.

It had been a rough 2 days for Mike now. It was finally time for him to go home. He was more than happy to get out  of there. He dangled his feet off the bed and waited for the doctor to come in with the discharge papers.

"Its about time Shaun. I was getting tired of looking at these walls."

Shaun hugged him and kissed his ear. "I'm glad you also get to leave."

The doctor came in and said: "Everything looks clear Mr. Nesmith. You are free to go."

"Thanks." Mike stood up and nearly fell when he did and the doctor caught him. "I'm fine. I think I just forgot how to walk for a minute." Mike joked as the doctor stood him up.

"Come on. Lets go Mike." Shaun said as she was limping around without the crutches. The doctor told her she needed to try to walk on it, so that's what she was doing. But sometimes she needed to use the crutches.

"Wait a minute Shaun." Mike said as he walked back into the room and grabbed his wool hat that was sitting on the night stand and he put it on his head and walked back out of the room and took Shaun's hand.

"You're trusty wool hat." She smiled and took it off his head and put it on her own head.

He chuckled at her. "You look good in that."

They both walked out and Taylor picked them both up. "Hey guys."

"Hey Tay." Shaun said hopping into Taylor's car. She let Mike sit up front as she sat in the back.

"So, is there any news on the MonkeeMobile Taylor?" Mike asked.

"Well, it was damaged pretty bad. It'll take a while to make it as good as new."

"Okay. Thanks for checkin' for me. I appreciate it."

"Its no problem Mike."

Taylor drove Mike over to the monkees pad. He opened the door with his good hand and got out of the car. Shaun also got out right after Mike did and she turned to Taylor and said: "You don't need to take me home Tay. I'll stay here for a bit."

"Okay. I'll see you two later."

"Okay Tay. Be careful."

"I will." She waved goodbye to the two and drove out of the drive. Mike took Shaun's hand and they both walked inside as they were greeted by Micky and Peter.

"Hey! Welcome home Mike."

"Thanks bud." Mike walked over and sat on the couch. "Its really good to be home."

Shaun sat next to him and laid her head on his shoulder as he put his arm around her.

"Me and Peter were just going to join Davy outside at the beach if you two wanna join us."

"No thanks. Remember, I just got out of the hospital Micky. The last thing I wanna do is go to the beach."

"Sorry man. It was just an offer."

"I'm sorry Micky. You didn't deserve that tone you got from me."

"Its alright Mike. Well, me and Peter are gone, so the house is going to be quiet for you two."

Micky and Peter took off out the back door and Shaun started to kiss Mike on the neck. He smiled as he moved to look at her. She stopped and brought her lips to his and he immediately kissed back. Shaun brought her hand up to touch the side of his face and he brought her closer to him.

Mike released the kiss and he moved his hand up and down her back. "So, what are you going to do at you're next gig? You can't nesessarily play because of you're hand."

"I honestly don't know. We might have to switch up the instruments so I don't have to use my hand."

"That's a good idea. And who do you want to play you're blonde beauty?"

"Peter. He's played it before, and maybe Davy could play the bass while I play around with Davy's instruments. That's what we're gonna have to do until my hand heals." He said looking at his hand.

Shaun took his hand and kissed it. "Its not gonna ruin you're reputation if you use Davy's instruments."

"I know. But I wanna play my guitar." He pouted his face.

"You will soon enough Mike. Trust me."

"How can I not trust you?"

Sorry this one is shorter than the other chapters. I will try to make the next one longer
