Michael woke up to the screaming of his daughter, having a fit over her dolls. "Mommy give them back! I wanna play!" Cateleya yelled. Lena took her hand and pulled her into the kitchen. "You have to eat first, then you can play." she said sitting her down.

Michael got up and went into the kitchen. He kissed Cateleya on the cheek and sat down. "Morning." Lena said quietly. "Morning." he replied.

Lena sat down and looked throught some papers. "Whats that?" Michael asked. "Just some records that Kim wanted me to go through. Im going back to work." she said.

Michael's eyes widened. "You are? When?" he asked

"Tommorow morning. I just wanted to get a head start today though." she said. "Lena can I speak with you a minute?" he asked. "Sure." she said smiling. They both got up and went into the living room. "About last night....Im sorry I yelled at you. I said some really bad things that I regret. I dont want to split up Michael. I love you too much." she said sadly.

"Thats what I wanted to talk about. Is there some way that we can reconnect like we used to? I think its silly to argue all the time, especially when we can easily work things out." he said smiling.

"We're in this together right?" she asked

"Of course. When did you think that I wasnt? You and Cateleya are my life. I love you both more than anything. So when Im gone for too long, or I come home late, just know that Im doing this because of you guys, and my fans." Michael said

"I know. I just....want to spend more time with you I guess. I miss you. We miss you." Lena said

"How about this.....tonight I take you somewhere special. And tommorow I can take a day off and spend some time with you and Cateleya. Hows that sound?" he asked

"I like that idea." she said smiling. Michael smiled and kissed her cheek.

"I miss your lips Michael." she whispered.

"Are you trying to ask me somethin?" he smiled

"Yea. Kiss me like you used to." she said inching closer. Michael smiled and gently pulled her closer. His lips met hers and they both kissed passionately. "I love you." she said. "I love you too Lena."

They both went back in the kitchen to eat breakfast. Cateleya finished and kissed her parents on the cheek. "Can I go play now?" she sweetly asked. "You sure can." Lena said. "Thanks for the pancakes Rosie!" she said hugging her. "No problem Little bear." she said back

After breakfast Michael was off to the studio. "Bye Papa bear!" Cateleya said hugging him. "Bye little bear, and be good for me ok? Help Mama bear. Shes a little slow on her paws." Michael joked. "Dont start Papa bear." Lena warned playfully. They all laughed.

~At the Studio~

"Michael Michael MIchael!!! We have some great ideas for this album. Its gonna be off the hook!" Teddy said patting his back.

"Well alright! Show me what we have." Michael said. They both walked into the studio and a woman was there. "Oh Michael, this is Michelle, the new studio assistant." Teddy said. Michael smiled and shook her hand. "Nice to meet you Michael. Its a pleasure." she said. He nodded and sat down.

"So, where are you from?" he asked her.

"Chicago." she answered

"Cool. Most studio assistants around here are males." Michael said

"Anything that you men can do I can do it. I can do it and perfect it, having it done before you blink your eyes." she said confidently.

Teddy laughed. "Whoa! We've got a fiesty one on our hands." he said. Michael agreed. "I like your confidence. If you wanna make it in this business you gotta come strong." Michael said. They all agreed.

Michael was doing his usaul thing in the studio, and Michelle went off to snoop around. "Man he is sexy." she thought. "Too bad he's married. If I had the change he would be mine." She came back into the studio with water bottles. "For your hard work." she said giving one to Michael and Teddy.

"Thanks." they both said. "Now Michael, you're done with the last song. We'll call John up and tell him that we're ready for music videos.'' he said. "Great. Let's get started as soon as possible. I want "Dangerous" to be a hit." Michael said. The session was over and Michael walked to his car. He heard someone crying and looked around. Michelle, sitting on a bench with her head down, cried her eyes out. Michael walked over to her and sat down.

"Hey are you alright?"

"No....I just got dumped." she lied

"Ohh....Im sorry Michelle. Were you close?"

"Yes. Just when I thought things were going great, he said he was in love with another woman." she said

MIchael rubbed her back and sighed. "Men like that build you up only to tear you down and make you sad. Dont worry Michelle, another will come along. You're a beautiful, talented, confident woman that carries herself well. Dont let that break up overwhelm you. You will be just fine." he said. 

She looked up into his eyes and smiled. "You think so?"

"I know so." he said smiling. She smiled back and hugged him. "Thank you Michael. I feel much better now."

"Well...I have to get going. Family's waiting on me." he said

"Me too. Have to go too." she said getting up.

"See you tommorow Michelle, and remember...you're too good for him." he said walking to the car. She looked back and smiled. She got in the car and laughed. "Wifey's goin down!" she said driving home.

~At home~

Michael went upstairs and found Lena and Cateleya watching a movie. "Papa bear!" Cateleya said jumping up and kissing MIchael."Hi little bear." he said hugging her. Lena smiled. Michael let Cateleya go and kissed Lena. ''How was your day?" she asked. "Great. Album is finished and we're getting ready for music videos." he said. "Thats great Mikey."

"We also have a new studio assistant." he said

"Oh? Whats his name?"

"Uhhh...her name...and its MIchelle." he replied nervously

"Oh thats nice. At least you have some more help around there. It can get pretty crazy."

"Yea you're right." he said calmly. Lena got up and walked to him. "I have a suprise for you." she said smiling. Michael smiled. "Oh yeah? What is it?" he asked. "Go and change. Come downstairs when you're done." she whispered.

He smiled and went into the bathroom. "What could it be? A gift?" Michael wondered. He was supposed to take her out tonight, but he guessed it was a change of plans. Lena went to Cateleya and told her to stay in the room and watch a movie, so the suprise dinner she had made for them would be alone.

She put on her short red dress and let her long black hair down. She put on some make-up and threw on her heels. She went downstairs and put on some slow music and dimmed the lights. Just then she heard Michael come down the steps. She met him there and told him to turn around.

"This must be a big suprise." he said giggling

"It is." she replied. She put her hands over his eyes and guided him to the dining room. She uncovered his eyes and smiled. "Suprise!" she said smiling. Michael giggled and looked at her. "You made dinner for me?" he asked. She nodded. "All of your favorites." she said. Michael smiled and kissed her. "Thank you Lena. This is sweet. And you look beautiful by the way." he said blushing.

"Thank you Mikey." she said grabbing his hand to sit. They started eating. "You make the best fried chicken." Michael said with crumbs on his lips. Lena giggled. "Man I miss that laugh." he said looking at her. She got shy and looked away. "Lets never fight again ok?" he said. "Ok." she said back

They sat and ate, enjoying themselves like old times. Michael looked over and pointed to a pie. "I know you didnt girl." he said beaming.

"Yes I did. You're favorite. Banana Creme Pie." she said. "Oh baby girl. All of this...its wonderful." he said. "You're wonderful. All of the things Ive done, I wanna make it up to you. I love you Michael." she said cutting a piece of pie for him. She cut one piece and told him to open his mouth.

"Damn baby this is good!" he said smiling

"Im glad you like it. I had Rosie help me on this one though." she said laughing

MIchael dipped his finger in the whipped creme. "Taste it." he said licking some off his lips. She smiled and licked the creme off his finger. "Its finger-lickin good." she said giggling. They both laughed. Lena leaned in to kiss him "You taste like bananas." she moaned. "You taste like whipped creme." he moaned back.

Michael picked her up and took her to another room. He put her on the bed and locked the door. "I want you now Lena." he said climbing on top of her.

"Then take me baby." she whispered. Then they made sweet passionate love all through the night. Afterwards they cuddled up and stared at each other. "I got the woman I married back." Michael whispered. She smiled and laid on his chest.

"I promise that she will never leave again." she said falling asleep. Michael smiled and kissed her forehead lightly. Everything was going great.

For now....
