The monkees find love

Chapter 16

After they finished eating, they all stayed there for about another hour talking and laughing about random things.

Mike checked his watch. "Hey, its getting late. We've been here for several hours. Lets get outta here." He said standing up and swinging his jacket over his shoulder.

They all stood up and pushed the chairs into the table as each of them left. Once home, they each got to doing their thing. Davy and Peter began playing chess, Micky was reading a newspaper while laying in the hammock trying not to fall asleep, and Mike was reading a book while the TV was on in the background. No one was really watching it.

Peter spent forever taking his turn and Davy decided to walk away until Peter made a decision. Mike fell asleep on the couch with the book over his face, with Micky close behind him on falling asleep. Micky fell into temptation and fell asleep as his hand slid down and the newspaper he was reading fell from his hand and onto the floor. Davy just looked over at both of them and shook his head.

"Come on Petah. Lets get to bed."

"Yeah. Alright. Wait, what about them?" He said pointing to the ones who were sleeping.

"Leave them down here. No need to wake them up so they can sleep upstairs. We'll just turn the lights out for them so they won't wake up."

"Okay. Go ahead and go to bed. I got the lights." Peter said as Davy disappeared into the bedroom while Peter turned off each light and headed for the bedroom as well.

In the middle of the night, Micky woke up. The lights were out and he had no idea what time it was or where he was. Then he remembered, he was still on the hammock. He didn't want to get up so he just stayed there and passed out again.

The very next morning, daylight broke through the windows. Mike and Micky woke up roughly around the same time. Mike glanced over at Micky, who glanced back at him.

"Hmm. I guess we fell asleep in the living room last night." Micky said as he tried to get out of the hammock and he ended up falling out of it and landing on the floor face down. He let out a groan.

Mike slowly sat up and walked up to Micky and helped him stand up. "I guess so. You alright?"

Micky laughed softly. "Yeah. At least Davy or Peter didn't see."

"No but I did." Mike said as he also laughed.

"Stop laughing already will ya?" Micky said as he rubbed his face with his hands.

Mike walked away and Davy appeared in the kitchen moments later. "Hey guys. Did you sleep well last night?"

Mike glanced over at Micky and shook his head as he smiled. "Well, I did. I don't know about him." He said pointing at Micky and trying to styfle a laugh remembering that Micky fell when he got out of the hammock.

"I also slept fine." Micky said as he threw a crumpled piece of paper at Mike, just barely missing him.

"Nice try Micky." Mike said picking up the crumpled paper and throwing it away.

"Well, at least I tried." Micky said shrugging his shoulders.

"Davy, why didn't you wake us up last night instead of letting us sleep down here?"

"Because, I didn't see the point on waking either of you up just to go upstairs and sleep."

"Makes sense. Hey, I gotta go and I should be back in about an hour or two." Mike said as he went upstairs and changed into different clothes and headed out the door.

"Where do you think he's going?"

"Hey, maybe he's looking at some rings." Micky kinda blurted out.
