Summary
This is basically Part 2 Of my 'Loving John and Michael' series, but I decided to write it first. Ellen Raymond has been working as Brian Epstein's personal assistant for two years. She's also been in the midst of an affair with her former childhood friend, John Lennon. It is now the summer of 1965, and the Beatles are on tour, staying at a rented house in Los Angeles for about a week. Ellen decides to check out the local music scene at the famous Troubadour night club and meets a struggling musician, Robert Michael Nesmith. There is an instant attraction. Will her relationship with the temperamental Beatle survive, or will she give it all up for a future Monkee?

Summary
“Now, if you’re gonna be there every date night, you might as well be included in every date night,” Mike said evenly. Peter’s chest heaved. His skin lit on fire, all the way down to his bones. The hairs on the back of his neck stood up. “Either get in or get out. Up to you.”

Summary
On the verge of branching out even further in the pursuit of personal freedom, an opportunity arises that puts a halt to Mike's forward momentum. Suddenly he's reliving a past he's been so reluctant to touch, recalling memories that only seem to hurt him, and he starts to wonder if he's really moved forward at all.
Time has failed to heal, and old wounds threaten to reopen. Can Mike find the closure he's unintentionally been searching for ever since he left The Monkees -and Micky- behind?
This is a direct sequel to Wax Minute.

Summary
This is literally just like, what the hell was going on with these two?? This is nothing it’s just trying to figure out what their dynamic was. Little vignettes, stories, snippets, moments, what have you. Some based on real events, some entirely of my creation.
“If you were worried, then you don’t need to be anymore; Mike and Peter no longer get on like a house on fire. It wasn’t really subtle nor was it sudden, and Mike didn’t really notice while it was happening, but he and Peter… they fit together like a jigsaw puzzle with just a couple of pieces gone.”
