This story revolves around Fleetwood Mac starting during the Rumours era and going beyond. However, it does not tell the story of Stevie Nicks shooting daggers with her eyes across the stage to her former lover Lindsey Buckingham it focuses on the second couple sharing the stage with them. This story focuses on Christine and John McVie. As we all know their marriage was very much in debris by 1975 and eventually ended in divorce in 1978. My little fic here is all about 'What if not?' What if they had found a way to pull themselves together and made it work, continuing to stay the couple they never could be? This story also brings forth a character that could be all of us, and you might find a little bit of yourself in her. This story is obviously based on real life human beings that actually existed and still exist. This story however, although based on true events, is purely fictitious. While I did try my best to stay true to the real life characteristics of the people I'm writing about all the events described here have been conjured up by me and are not in any way real. Some characters in this story are not real either and purely a figment of my imagination. I hope you enjoy this little fic about a very underrated couple that I feel is deserving of more recognition, as it is my opinion, that the bond they shared was far greater than they ever let us believe. {side note: English isn't my first language so apologies if some things sound strange}

***In the continuing alternate universe of Buckingham Nicks*** It's 2002 and Stevie, just home from her Trouble In Shangri-La tour, joins Lindsey, Mick and John in the studio for the first time without Christine to make a new album. However their professional lives may be stressful, however, pales in comparison to the drama, the struggles and, yes, also the happiness, that comes with having two grown children, a young teen and a daughter just starting school...the family they have created over 25 years of marriage. A new album, a tour, a health scare, a wedding and the first grandchild of both the Buckinghams and the McVies color the first few years of the new millennium for our favorite rock and roll love match, Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham. "That kind of romance comes only once, that kind of love that kind of fever dance...that you love because you become someone else in an instant..." ~ Stevie Nicks, "Say You Will", 2002
