Sorry it's quite a short chapter but I was in a bit of a rush, hope you like it anyway :)

I don't own The Monkees unfortunately :(

They finished off the washing up with casual chatter about the best places in town to go for dancing, food and great records. Eve liked listening to Davy, his accent was very sweet and he always seemed so lively.

The others were down at the beach, and Eve was pretty excited to join them. The house she had lived in with her parents wasn't near any beaches, so she hadn't been often.

''Where's the bathroom?'' she asked, after the dishes had been put away.

''Oh well it's just ova' there,'' Davy pointed to a brown door accross the room.

'' Ah thanks,'' she said, taking her suitcase with her.

In the bathroom she closed the door and took a striped towel and her bikini out of the case. Davy must have cleaned in here too, she thought, looking around the room with it's rainbow shower curtain and matching toilet seat. It was pretty groovy. She slipped off her lilac tights and put her polka dot bikini on under the mint dress she was wearing then finished off with a pair of flip flops. That should do it.

Taking her towel, she left her suitcase in the bathroom and went outside to meet Davy who had already changed into his shorts. They both made their way down the sandy slope that lead to the beach, the sun was high in the sky and it was nicely warm, Eve was glad her dress had no sleeves. In the distance there was yells and laughter and sure enough three figures were running in and out of the rolling water.

''Hey!'' Davy yelled, waving his arm.

Hearing a yell, Micky turned to see two short figures walking accross the sand towards them.

''They're here,'' he said to Mike and Peter.

''Who?'' Peter asked.

''Your sister and Davy, man'' Mike said giving Peter a playful nudge.

''Oh,'' replied Peter, rubbing his arm.

She sure looks fine, thought Micky as Eve came closer. He was relieved to see them, they'd spent quite a while with the dishes and he had wondered if Davy had been flirting.

''Hey guys,'' Eve smiled. Noticing Micky had no shirt on, she tried not to stare but it was proving quite hard because he sure had a nice chest.

''Hello,'' the three Monkees replied in unison.

''Now you're all here, ya want to race?'' asked Mike, who still had his bobble hat on, ''that is unless you wanna sunbathe or somethin,''

''Sunbathe? I don't need to sunbathe,'' said Peter, inspecting his arms.

''He was referring to the lady amongst us Pete,'' Micky explained, patting him on the shoulder.

Eve laughed and kicked off her flip flops, ''Hell no, I wanna go swimming,''

''Good enough for me,'' grinned Micky before darting off towards the waves without warning.

''Hey wait up!'' Eve shouted racing after him, followed by Davy, Mike and Peter.

''No fair Micky!'' Davy yelled.

''Cheater!'' Peter exclaimed. It wasn't long before Mike overtook Eve and was second to reach the sea after Micky.

Eve's feet splashed in the water as she reached the waves, ''Third!'' she laughed, joining Micky and Mike who were waist deep in the sea.

''Hey you're fast,'' grinned Micky, ''not as fast as me though,''

Eve pretended to be offended and splashed water in the direction of Micky's face who splashed back, it wasn't long before there was a full scale waterfight as the other Monkees joined in. Suddenly Eve felt Micky's strong arms around her waist and she felt butterflies as he lifted her out of the water and threw her down again.

Eve coughed and wiped the water from her eyes as she came to the surface, ''Oi!'' she shouted with a grin on her face. Time went really quickly as they messed around, they all lay on the sand in the sun for a while before getting up to go home.

''ere,'' said Davy wrapping a towel around Eve's shoulders.

''Thanks,'' she smiled.

''Hey let's do the Monkee walk back to the house,'' Peter suggested.

''The Monkee walk?'' Eve asked not quite sure what it was.

''I'll show you,'' Micky moved to stand beside her and wrap an arm around her waist, again she felt the butterflies. ''Then you put your arm around my shoulder,'' he said.

''Ah I see,'' smiled Eve as Mike came to her other side and then Peter and Davy joined. They Monkee walked the whole way back to the Pad laughing.

I'll get chapter 3 up asap
