Siblings Emma and Mike Baker, high school students, live in a tiny city apartment with their two parents. Surprise! After three years of exile there, they're returning to their suburban house, and reconnecting with their next-door neighbors and friends, Dora and Paul Lincoln. All four are similar ages, but puberty has changed them. A lot. Their four parents are reconnecting too. The Lincolns have added a pool, and some pineapple-themed decor. Hmm.
An Amy Story A little background on the new character introduced in When The Music's Over. This story cover's her background, and explains the darkness that Amy recognised in her. This is not a happy story for the most part, so take note of the codes before you read it...

Your thoughts about the future for Rob and the girls is encouraged. Should he or should he not love them? He can come back to find they have gone on with their life without him or that the time away did not change their feelings.

This stand-alone story is a kind of prequel to my story 'My Son, the Photographer' and tells how two of the characters in that story first become intimate.
