The Following Morning
Michael was the first to wake up. (Me: Usually I am, but he beat me to it and I stayed up late lol) He sat up and stretched and looked on the floor. He saw me still asleep and smiled. He looked on a chair in my room and saw his clothes, set and ready and dry. He carefully got out of letto and went over to the chair and grabbed his clothes. When he turned around, I woke up and sat up. He walked over to me and knelt beside me. He kissed my cheek and I giggled.
"Morning, Rebecca." He said, putting his arm around my shoulder.
I smiled. "Good morning, Smooth Criminal. Haha." I said, giggling.
He rolled his eyes and giggled. He got up and helped me up. I checked the back of his head and didn't feel the bump anymore.
"Is there still a bump?"
"Nope, Michael. The bump is gone."
"Thank God."
I giggled. "Bathroom's over there, if te need to change." I pointed to my bathroom.
He turned to the door and then turned to me and nodded. "Thank you." He was about to walk into the bathroom, but stopped and turned back to me. "What should I do with-"
"There's a hamper in there. te can put them in it."
"Could I...well...could I keep it? I've never slept in something like this before."
I thought about it after a little while and nodded. "Sure. te can keep it."
He smiled. "Thanks." He then went into the bathroom to change.
I got what I'd wear and changed into them while Michael changed in the bathroom. I then fixed my hair and did my make-up. Michael came out of the bathroom and came up behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist. I looked in the mirror and saw Michael and giggled.
"Hey Michael. Need anything?"
"2 things, really."
"And they are?"
"One, a kiss..."
I giggled and turned my head and kissed him. "What's the 2nd thing te need?"
He giggled, a bit embarrassed. "Could te help tie my tie, please?"
"Sure. No problem."
He removed his arms and I turned to him and started tying his tie. Once I finished, I fixed it up a bit. He smiled and kissed me.
"Thank you, Rebecca."
I kissed him back and smiled. "You're welcome."
Suddenly, we heard a knock. My door opened and my parents came in. When they saw Michael, they were in shock.
"Oh my goodness..." My mom muttered. "You're Michael Jackson."
Michael smiled and nodded. "Yes I am. te two must be Rebecca's parents. Am I correct?"
My dad nodded. "Yes we are. Rebecca, te know the rules about having boys in the room." He told me.
"Right. Sorry, Dad. But he got a bump on his head yesterday, so I had to watch him. It's not like we slept in the same bed."
"She's right, dad. I can speak for her." Alex said, coming into the room.
I looked at Michael and Michael looked back at me while Alex explained the whole thing to my parents. My mom nodded and so did my dad, obviously now understanding the whole situation.
"Okay, we'll let it go. Since te are 18 anyway." My mom detto to me.
"Thanks, Mom and Dad. Well, we gotta head out to rehearsals. They're gonna start soon. Come along, Michael."
I walked out of the room, with Michael, mouthing 'Thanks' to Alex and we soon left for rehearsals.
At Rehearsals
We ran through the Smooth Criminal number about 20 times, each time trying to perfect it in every way possible. Watching Michael dance and listening to him sing was an awesome sight up close. I could imagine his fan and how excited they were when they got to see him while he was on his Bad Tour.
"Alright. Let's take a 5 minuto break, everyone." Michael said.
All the dancers went to break soon after Michael announced it. Michael sighed in relief and walked over to me. I handed him a bottle of water and he took it.
"Thanks, Rebecca."
"No problem, Michael. It's perfect so far." I said.
He smiled a little and chuckled. "You're just saying that to make me feel better."
"I mean it, Michael. It is."
Soon, his smile grew and he kissed my cheek. "Thanks. Glad te think so."
I kissed his cheek back. "I don't think so. I know so."
He giggled and soon, we went back into rehearsing Smooth Criminal 20 più times.
After Rehearsals
"Great job, everyone! We'll go on tomorrow, starting from after Michael leaves Club 30's!" Frank called out.
Kelly ran up to me and Michael with Sean and Brandon. "Wow! te were great! Both of te were!" She said.
I giggled and said, "Thanks, but Michael was better."
Michael turned to me. "No, te were." He said.
I poked him. "No, te were."
He poked back and we had a poking war start. Kelly, Sean and Brandon giggled at us. Then they heard a horn honking.
"Well, that's my mom. See te guys tomorrow! Come on, Sean and Brandon."
Kelly soon headed out with Sean and Brandon. Michael and I stopped our epic poke war and waved at them. Michael turned to me and put his arm around my waist.
"Wanna go on our picnic lunch now?"
I turned to him and smiled. "Sure, Michael."
He smiled, took his hand off my waist and held my hand. Soon, he and I headed to the park.
At The Park
We walked through the park and found the albero we were in a while back. There was a blanket, a basket and no one, but us, was around.
I looked at Michael. "A private picnic lunch?" I asked. "You planned all this?"
Michael looked back at me and smiled a little. "Of course. I wouldn't want anyone, especially the paparazzi, to bother us." He stated.
I nodded. "Good. Smart idea."
He giggled and we sat down and got the Cibo items out of the basket and started eating. We also chatted away and he even suggested for me to dance and sing more. I had only shown him the video my parents taped of me dancing and Canto along to Billie Jean when he was on Motown 25. Although, I have always wanted to dance and sing più often than I did. We were so busy laughing and having fun, that we didn't even notice a few paparazzi members hiding in the bushing, snapping secretive shots of me and Michael, having our picnic lunch date. Soon, Michael and I (after we finished eating and put everything up) left the park and he walked me home.
Arriving At My House
Once we got to my house, I noticed that no one was home. Both cars were gone and so were the skateboards and the bike.
'They must have gone out with their Friends and such...people that bug me about what I do, really.' I thought.
I turned to Michael and smiled. "Do te wanna come inside? te can, if te want to." I said.
He smiled back and nodded. "Sure, thanks." He said.
I unlocked the door and we walked in and put the basket on the tavolo and went to the couch. I turned on the VCR and put in The Wizard Of Oz. Michael turned to me in shock.
"How did te know The Wizard Of Oz was my preferito movie? Oh wait, I told you. Woops haha." He giggled.
I giggled and we sat down on the divano and watched the movie. He put his arm around me and I put my head on his shoulder. We looked at each other and kissed and then started watching the movie, eventually falling asleep.

te believed te were alone
That no one truly loved you
te can try to hide your pain from me
But I feel it either way
When your cuore breaks, so does mine
Does that tell te how I feel
When I'm upset I look to you
Your smile makes it all vanish
No one else can make that happen
The world took so much away from you
But they'll never take away your memory
Its one thing we'll always have
te never knew me
You'll never know my love
Of maybe te already do
For I always feel te near
You're gone from me mortally
But my cuore will always remember you
My cuore mourns for losing you
Yet it rejoices for your homecoming in heaven
You're far away, yet you're where te belong
You're smiling down on all of us each day
I believe you've forgiven me for the past
And the future I see only increases my Amore for te undying.
That no one truly loved you
te can try to hide your pain from me
But I feel it either way
When your cuore breaks, so does mine
Does that tell te how I feel
When I'm upset I look to you
Your smile makes it all vanish
No one else can make that happen
The world took so much away from you
But they'll never take away your memory
Its one thing we'll always have
te never knew me
You'll never know my love
Of maybe te already do
For I always feel te near
You're gone from me mortally
But my cuore will always remember you
My cuore mourns for losing you
Yet it rejoices for your homecoming in heaven
You're far away, yet you're where te belong
You're smiling down on all of us each day
I believe you've forgiven me for the past
And the future I see only increases my Amore for te undying.
"Michael was doing on an epic scale what all humans must do, keep going through the illusions, mistakes, hurts, conceits, self-hate and masks of human life, sometimes not having any idea if what is important to te actually has any value, o even knowing what is important to you."
This is an excerpt from Mary Gaitskill's wonderful essay (with videos) on Michael. Check it out:
