This story revolves around Fleetwood Mac during the era of Rumours and 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.

Everybody Loves You by GoldDustLinda77
13 parts Complete Mature
On Monday, January 9, 2023, the four remaining members of Fleetwood Mac gather in Malibu at aa private memorial service for Christine McVie, whose death six weeks earlier shook them all to their core...particularly Stevie Nicks. As Stevie appears in Malibu to bid farewell to yet another best friend, she finds herself more anxious than sad, because two of the most important men in her life will be there, and so will their decades-long connections and conflicting emotions... Mick Fleetwood, who has made it clear to her since Christine's death that life is too short to deny oneself happiness...and happiness for Mick is to love Stevie in a way he was denied decades earlier during their brief love affair. Lindsey Buckingham, whom she has not set eyes on in 5 years, ever since the infamous MusiCares incident that got Lindsey kicked out of the band and put an abrupt end to 20 years of "almost" after their breakup after The Dance. Stevie, still grieving the loss of her friend, must decide once and for all who, if either of these men, will be the one with whom she will spend the remaining years of her life - the man whose comfortable friendship and home in Hawaii is waiting for her, or the man she has loved and hated and lusted after and mourned for her entire adult life but has never gotten over. Told in the first-person point of view by all three people involved in this love triangle, "Everybody Loves You" will answer question... Will Stevie choose comfort, passion, or her own independence from it all?
