The monkees find love

Chapter 14

It had been a rough week for rehearsing. There was alot of frustration coming from each of them. Each of them kept messing up. During the final last days of rehearsal, they had barely taken a break. The only times they took breaks was to eat, and get to bed at night.

Half of them were a bit cranky from lack of sleep, and the other half were the exact opposite, and then got cranky later on because of the other 2 putting them in a bad mood. So, it wasn't a good week for any of them.

The day after the gig, they were finally able to relax and get plenty of rest. Which is exactly what they did. Mike and Micky slept in for quite a while. Davy and Peter however, woke up at their usual times. Davy had a date with Lucie, so he was already out the door to pick her up, and Peter was watching a little bit of TV not trying to wake either Mike or Micky, because it was both Mike and Micky who were frustrated over the week.

Peter heard a knock on the door and he got up and ran over to it and opened it quickly so they wouldn't knock on it again. Shaun and Marie were there.

"Hey girls."

"Hey Peter."

He invited them both in. "Is Mike home?"

"Yeah. I didn't bother to wake them up this morning. He's still sleeping. Almost after each gig, Mike sleeps in the very next day. So, its nothing new."

"Well, I'll go up there."

"You sure that's a good idea? He might think you're Micky and wanna tackle you to the ground. Every time Micky wakes him up, that always happens."

"I'll be fine Peter. Thanks for worrying."

She walked upstairs slowly and slowly opened the bedroom door so it wouldn't creak. She knew Mike was a light sleeper. So, she wouldn't want to wake him up accidentally. She approached his bed and sat on it.

"Hey, Mike?"

"Hmmm." He mumbled.

"Wake up." She whispered in his ear.

"Micky, I swear to god, if you don't leave me alone."

"Its not Micky hun. Its Shaun."

Mike removed his head from underneath his pillow and opened one eye to varify her. "So I see. Hey."

"Peter told me this was normal for you the day after you're gigs. So, I won't hold it against you."

"Great. I wouldn't want you to anyways." He said as he sat up and gave her kiss on the cheek.

"Peter was worried you would try to wrestle me to the ground. He told me that's practically what happens when Micky wakes you up."

"Pretty much. Be glad you identified yourself or that probably would've happened."

"You ready to get up?"

"Not really, but for you, yes." He smiled and they both stood up about the same time.

"You're sweet. You know that right?" Shaun asked him.

"Well, that's not what Micky says."

"That's only because you tackle him every chance you get."

"Yeah. Its always fun." A pillow slammed into the side of Mike's face, catching him off guard. "Welp, looks like he's up."

"Shut up Mike and get outta here and let me get some sleep." Micky finally spoke.

"Yes dear." Mike said sarcastically at Micky as he and Shaun both exited the room and headed downstairs.

"Hey Peter. Hi Marie. Its been a while." Mike said as he got to the bottom floor.
