The next morning I woke up to a knock on my door. I stumbled out of bed half asleep and tired as hell and made my way to my hotel room door. “Ugh y-yeah” I mumbled eyes half open. “Well someone’s tired.” Joe said. I opened my door father and stretched. “Yeah…oh and good morning.” I said starting to wake up more. “Good morning” Joe said then continued. “Well I’m just here to remind you the meetings start in an hour.” Joe said. “Alright thanks Joe. Hey can you do me a favor?” I asked. “Of course isn’t it my job to?” he said. I laughed lightly and said “Yeah, yeah, yeah but you know I treat you more as family then just a body guard.” “I know.” He said smiling warmly at me. “So what’s the favor?” he continued. “Can you call up room service so I can have breakfast before the meetings?” I asked. “Already done. I ordered you an omelet with bacon and an English muffin.” he said. “What would I do without you?” I asked smiling. “Starve!” he said in a serious voice. I just started laughing and then he did too. We finished talking and I went back into my room to get ready. I took a quick shower and got into a pair of torn up jeans and a lose fitting shirt the hung off my shoulders a little bit and some heels. I gelled up my curly hair and did some light make up. I finished and had breakfast then made my way down to one of the meeting rooms with Joe. The meetings lasted a couple of hours and I was as so bored. I’m not really needed for them but it’s best that I go anyway.

We got done and I went back to my room. I plopped down on the couch and just stared at the wall. “Gosh I’m bored.” I said aloud. Then the wonderful memory of being with Michael came to mind. “Hmmm I could call him.” I thought to myself then looking at the clock to see what time it was. It read 10:30 I smiled and got up to get his number and grab the hotel phone and sat back down on the couch and dialed the number. Michael sat in his room feeling bored. Today was his day off but he had nothing really to do he thought about calling Mac or one of his other friends but decided not to. All of a sudden his phone ran he sighed and picked it up hoping it wasn’t work. “Hello?” he said sounding annoyed. Danielle bit her lip maybe she called at a bad time she thought to herself. “Hey Michael it’s Danielle…sorry if I called at a bad time.” I said. Michael smiled big hearing her voice he had thought about her all night after they had gone separate ways and hoped he’d hear back soon…he was so glad he did. “No, no not at all. Sorry just bored…how are you?” he asked. “Same, bored.” I said laughing lightly. “Well uhhh if you want you could come over to Neverland?” Michael asked hoping she would come. He really wanted to see her. I smiled big I wanted to see Michael and Neverland sounded amazing! “I don’t want to intrude.” I said trying to be polite. “Not at all. I would love to have your company.” Michael said. Danielle smiled bigger and bit her lip. “Ok I’ll be over soon.” I said. “Ok can’t wait.” Michael said and both hung up. I hung up and giggled lightly he had me feeling butterfly’s in my stomach. I quickly checked my hair and makeup making sure I looked good. I took off my heels and put on a pair of Toms shoes. I hated heals I only ware them for meetings and special events. I put on some light perfume and grabbed my shades.

I came out of my door to find Joe talking with one of the other body guards. “Hey guys can you get the car ready I’m going out.” I said. “Where are we going?” Joe asked. “To see Michael.” I said blushing lightly. Joe smiled widely at me. “You really like him don’t you?” he asked. “Hmm I don’t know what you’re talking about.” I said walking past him trying to hide my feelings but he could somehow read me. “Aha sure.” He said laughing lightly while fallowing behind me as we made our way to the back of the hotel where my car was. We got in the car and made are way toward Neverland and I found myself nervous I don’t know why but I was. He makes me feel all kinds of things and I just met him but I feel this strong urge pulling me toward him I just can’t explain it. As soon as Michael got off the phone he went and put on his make-up. He was in his pajamas so he quickly put on a pair of black pants and a red t shirt tucking it in to his waist and a pair of loafers and pulled his curly hair into a small pony letting some come in front of his face. He then began to pace his room in excitement. This girl had him going crazy she was beautiful, smart, caring, and he just met her but he can’t get her off his mind he wants to know her, be with her. He thought about her all last night wishing they could have had more time together but now she was coming over and he had to make a good inspiration. Just then Michael heard a car pull up he quickly checked to see how he looked. “Good enough” he thought and then went down to greet Danielle. I was blown away at how beautiful everything was the whole place was just gorgeous and the house? My gosh you could get lost in it. We pulled up in front of it and my heart was beating a little faster but then I saw him. Michael appeared from the door looking so damn sexy I couldn’t help but bite my lip. Gosh what’s wrong with me? I thought to myself. I got out of the car feeling nervous as hell. Did I look good? Michael was blown away she was even more beautiful now that he could see her in the light and her smile? Wow! “Welcome to Neverland.” He smiled coming up to her. “Michael it’s really so beautiful here, just amazing.” I said trying not to sound nervous. “Thank you…it’s so great to see you again.” Michael said talking my hand and bringing it up to his lips. Oh my gosh his lips were so soft and warm and having them on my skin sent shivers down my spine. Gosh he had me feeling so many things. He pulled away and we locked eyes. Those big gorgeous brown eyes staring into mine but I got nervous and blushed and looked down. He grabbed my other and pulled me a little closer to him. “You don’t have to be shy with me.” He said taking his pointer finger under my chin and lifting me head so I could see him. Gosh all these feelings I loved being so close to him everything was screaming something more than just friends. Michael was a little scared that his movement was a little too flirtatious but he wanted to do it and it looked like she did too. I couldn’t help but stare at his lips I felt myself wanting to touch them, to kiss them. So, I quickly looked down again and took my hands from his and called Joe over. She pulled away, she was fighting something, Michael saw that look in her eyes it was in his too. Michael had never been so forward with someone before but with her it felt right. “Um Joe I guess you can just hang out ok?” I said. “It’s very secure here so if you want you can look around talk with the other guards you know?” Michael spoke up. “I’ll do my walks and probably give Karen a call.” Joe said. “Oh that’s great! When you call her tell her I said “Hi” and also “Hi” to the girls and that I love them all.” I said smiling. Karen was Joe’s wife and they had two beautiful girls. I felt bad taking him away from them so much but the job called for it and he knew what he was getting into. “Well, how about I give you a tour of Neverland?” Michael said. I turned to him and smiled. “Sounds great” I said.

He showed me all of Neverland the house, rides, animals, pool. It was all so beautiful we talked about our lives and things about us and the more we talked the more and more I liked him. He was amazing and I knew we had a connection I knew that the moment we met. “So wanna go on some rides?” he asked smiling. I smiled big I’ve always loved fair rides. “Yeah!” I grinned. “Race ya?” “Oh you’re going to lose girl.” He said smiling big. “HA we’ll see.” I said then took off running as fast as I could while laughing. Damn he was fast and quickly got up to me I looked over and we locked eyes again. He then sped up and laughed thinking he was going to win but I had another plan. “Ah” I screamed then fell to the grown grabbing at my ankle. He stopped abruptly and came running over to me. “Are you ok girl?” he asked concern laced in his voice. “Ah, my ankle I think I twisted it.” I said putting on a booboo face. “Here let me help you” he said leaning down to me giving me his hand. “Thanks” I said taking it then all of a sudden pulling him down and getting back up quickly and laughing. “GOTCHA!” I called as I ran as fast as I could. “Hey! You cheater!” He yelled as I ran toward the amusement park. I just laughed until I finally got there. “I win!” I cheered. “No you cheated.” he corrected me smiling widely. “I don’t know what you are talking about.” I said innocently. “So that whole “My ankle! Oh help my ankle!” he began mimicking me in a very girly voice. “Wasn’t cheating?” he finnished raising an eye brow. I couldn’t help but just laugh the voice had me losing it. “Ok, ok maybe a little.” I said laughing. “Yeah a little” he said starting to tickle me. “No, no stop ahhh!” I screamed. “Oh someone’s ticklish.” He said laughing. “Please Michael stop!” pleaded laughing like crazy. “Nope this is payback.” He said with and evil smile. I couldn’t help it I was laughing so hard I fell to the ground and Michael fell with me. I laid there on the grass rolling around trying to get lose Michael hovering above me laughing and tickling me. “Say you’re sorry.” He said while laughing. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry!” I said laughing almost out of air.

He stopped tickling me and just stared at me. I slowly caught my breath and looked up at Michael and our eyes met. We just looked at each other in the eyes never looking away. His hand slowly came up to my face and brushed my hair behind my ear while softly rubbing my cheek with his thumb. Michael looked down on her she was so beautiful. Her curly hair surrounding her face and the bright green grass around her made he look so perfect. He just had to say it, he couldn’t not. “You’re so beautiful” Michael whispered. I froze. What did he just say? I didn’t know what to say to him I just kept looking into his big beautiful brown eyes. Michael leaned down coming very close to my face. “OMG he’s going to kiss me?!?!” I thought but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want him to. I know it sounds crazy but there was connection between us he felt it and I felt it. Michael kept going closer she wasn’t stopping him so he continued. Their faces now so close that they could feel each other’s breathing. I knew he wanted to kiss me and I wanted to kiss him. So I slowly brought my head up and boom we did the unthinkable…we kissed. We just sat there for a moment are lips just resting against each other’s until he slowly started to cares his against mine and began to do the same. His lips were so warm and soft and it felt so right to have them on mine. There was so much passion even though we just met. What was this? We are so connected it’s unexplainable. We stayed like that just slowly kissing each other. I brought my hand up to his face caressing it as our kiss deepened a little more. We slowly pulled away resting our four heads against each other’s. We didn’t say anything we just looked into each other’s eyes. “I-I’m sorry.” Michael finally spoke pulling away. He sat up and so did I. “Michael I don’t know what this is and it’s crazy but god I know you feel what I feel. I mean that kiss, I felt something.” I said looking at the ground. I suddenly felt Michaels hand on mine and looked up and over into his eyes. “I felt it too. I know this is going fast but I want to take it slow I don’t want to mess this up but you’re about to go to Europe for your tour and mine will be starting up soon. I don’t want to lose you there’s something here I can feel it.” He said looking me deep in the eyes. I sighed and ran my hand through my hair. “I know, I agree. We could do this but it would just mean we don’t see each other to often. I mean I could call you and you could call me, but still. Ugh!” I said getting frustrated. “Can you wait?” he asked. “What?” I asked confused. “Can you wait for me until you’re done with your tour and I’m done with mine?” he asked. That seemed to be the only way to make this work we had to wait until we were both done touring. There really was no other way.“If you’re willing to wait for me then I’m willing to wait for you.” I said holding his hand tightly. “I’m willing to wait as long as I need to.” he said pulling me toward him and I wrapped my arms around him as we held each other in a tight hug. I didn’t want to wait but I had to there was no way around it.

We spent the rest of the day together talking and just being around one and other. It was now dark outside and I had to leave. Michael walked me to my car and we just stared at each other. “Your still goen to call right?” I asked. “Of course I will every day.” He said bringing me into his arms to hug him. I wrapped my arms tight around his waist resting my head on his chest. We held each other tight not wanting to let go but knowing we had to. I started to pull away but lightly kissing Michael’s cheek before I did. “Good bye” I whispered. “Not good bye we’ll see each other again.” He said. I slowly walked away are hands still intertwined but slowly began to pull apart. I got in the car and watched Michael fade away as we drove off not know really when we’d see each other again.
