The monkees find love

Chapter 19

In the middle of the night, Mike woke up. He tried to get back to sleep, but failed. He groaned but not loud to wake up Micky. Unfortunately, Micky had woken up right after Mike did because he heard Mike stirring around in bed.

Then, Micky sat up. "Hey, what's up?"

"Huh? Oh, nothin'. What are you doin' up?"

"You woke me up."

"Oh. Sorry. I just can't get back to sleep." Mike turned on the lamp that was stationed right next to his bed and he checked the time. it was only 3am. "I just have a bad feeling."

"Really? I don't see why."

"Yeah. I don't either. Well, maybe its just me." He reached for the lamp and turned it off again as he laid back down.

"Just try to get back to sleep Mike." Micky said as he also laid back down and interlocked his hands over his stomach.

"Yeah. I'll try. But no guarentees." He said as he shut his eyes.

Mike and Micky were almost asleep when they both heard something downstairs. Micky was the first one to speak with one eye opened. "What was that?"

"I don't know. Maybe it was Davy or Peter."

"Moving stuff around?"

Mike groaned and sat up as he dangled his legs over the side of his bed. "I guess not. I'll check it out."

"Be careful Mike."

Mike looked over at Micky. "Don't turn the light on. Just in case someone besides the four of us is inside this house."

Micky nodded and Mike slowly walked over to the door and peaked his head out. The noise did get a little louder. It sounded like whoever it was, was looking for something they couldn't find. Mike wanted to go because he couldn't risk his friends in case it was a stranger. He would rather risk himself getting hurt.

He walked out of the room silently and he looked over the edge of the stairs and he saw a figure dressed in black. He sighed quietly as he walked downstairs quietly hoping he wouldn't see Mike. But he did. Mike didn't see it coming as the guy slammed into him wanting to fight him. Mike gasped in surprise as he collided into a wall.

Mike began to fight back. "What do you want and why are you here?"

"I don't have to answer to you!" He once again forced Mike into the wall.

"Actually, you do since this is my house!" Mike started to remember all those wrestling matches and he got an idea. It could actually come in handy now.

Mike grabbed him and threw him off as he put the guy in a headlock as the guy struggled underneath his grasp. "You know, I basically learned how to put someone in a headlock because of my best friend. we wrestle all the time. So, this should be slightly easy for me."

"Yeah. But, one thing you don't know is I also know how to fight. And there are several things I know about you. I know what weaknesses you recently sustained. For example, I know you tore a muscle in you're right shoulder." That's when his fist connected to Mike's shoulder and it caught him by surprise and threw him back.

He spoke up again. "I also know that you suffered a tragic loss about a month ago and you now have a fiance. What would you do if we did something to you're preious Shaun?"

Mike froze. Then spoke up in anger: "If you touch her, I swear I will kill you and make it look like an accident."

"Oh wow. Is that Mr. Tough Guy I hear? I guess you don't wanna know where she is."
