Finally Tuesday came. It was 10:00 am and they were tyding up the place and fixing the guest room. Davy wanted to be perfect for Sandra. It was 11:00 am and Davy was hurrying up the guys to get to the airport.
"C'Mon lads, it's almost noon and we have to beat lunch hour traffic. Let's go!" said Davy.
"We are comin' " said the boys.
The boys jumped into the Monkeemobile and they got to the airport. Micky said, "Okay, gate 41 is over there, let's go."
It struck noon, the plane arrived and the passengers were walking out of the gate. The boys were ready to receive Sandra. They pulled the banner out, but some people started laughing 'cause the banner was upside down. The boys realized it and they fixed the banner upright. Peter had a dozen yellow roses for Sandra as a friendship gift.
All of a sudden, a young girl about 19 years old appeared. She wore blue jeans and a white blouse with flower patterns and a string of love beads, she had long dark hair and dark eyes. She walked through the gate and saw the banner and a short cute guy. She thought, "Jolly good, it must be Davy!"
She started running towards them, but a suitcase was in her way. So, she tripped over the suitcase and fell into Mike's arms and said, "Sorry, how clumsy I am!" and Davy looked at her and said, "Sandra, is that you?"
He instantly recognized her because of her English accent.
"Davy, how lovely it is to see you! You look great!" said Sandra and she hugged him tight and gave him a big kiss on the cheek.
Peter, Mike and Micky said in unison, "Ahem." Sandra turned around and she saw the three cutest guys she'd ever seen. The same feeling went for Mike,Peter, and Micky. They fell totally in love with her in an instant.
DAvy took her hand and said,"Sandra, this is Michael Nesmith." Their eyes met and they were twinkling. Mike took her hand and kissed it and that made her blush.
"Sandra," said Davy, "this is Peter Tork." Their eyes met and they were also twinkling. He gave her a dozen red roses and Sandra was over joyed saying,"Why, thank you Peter. How did you know I love yellow roses?!"
"Davy told us that yellow roses were your favorite," said Peter, with an ear to ear smile.
"Sandra, this is Micky Dolenz," said Davy. Micky gave her a hug and said in a wacky English accent,"SAndra, welcome to America." This made Sandra laugh and their eyes, again, met and started to twinkle. Sandra ahs the old Jones' charm. To get foolishly in love.
The boys helped her with her luggage. They went to the parking lot. And Sandra saw the grooviest car on the face of the earth. She love it! Sandra said: "Wow, what a groovy car! Is it yours?"
"Yeah, it's ours. Isn't it a beauty?" said Mike, putting his arm around Sandra. "CAn I drive it? Please," said Sandra.
"Sure, babe," said MIcky taking her hand and leading towards the front seat. He opened the door and she got in.
Sandra sat in the front with Micky. Peter, Mike, and DAvy were in the back. She turned the ignition on and put her foot on the gas. They left the parking lot. Everything was cool until they reached the road. SEe, Sandra knows how to drive, but the left side of the road, not on the right side! Micky and Davy started panicking, saying: "Sandra, turn left!" said Davy.
"No, turn right!" said Micky.
This panicking started to frighten Sandra. She almost hit a car, but she pulled over to the side of the road. She got out of the MOnkeemobile, almost crying. She had her face buried in her hands. She felt frightened and confused. And also felt that she had dissapointed the boys. And that she felt like the dumbiest girl on earth. MIke and Peter got out of the car. Mike went over to her and gave her a hug, and said in a sweet and low Texas accent:
"That's alright, babe. WE know you didn't mean it."
"Yeah, Sandra, it's no big deal," said Peter.
"Really? You guys aren't angry?" said SAndra.
"Yeah, I'm very sorry for frightening you SAndra," said Micky.
"Me too, luv," said Davy. "Will you forgive us?"
"Okay, you guys are angels. And of course I'll forgive ou guys!" said Sandra and a big smile crossed her face.
"C'mon guys, let's go into the car. Sandra went in the back seat with Peter and DAvy. Peter was gazing at her. Mike was looking at her through the mirror and MIcky from the rear view mirror. Sandra felt great and she knew that they were looking at her, and looked at Peter and smiled. She did the same thing with Mike and Micky. She felt that she had made wonderful friends, but at the same time was in love with them.
