~Mary~

I was in the dance studio dancing and stretching my legs. Michael walked in and smiled. "Oh shakin it that way little mama?" he teased.

"Oh Michael! A pervert this early in the morning?" I asked giggling

"Maybe babygirl." he moonwalking to me. "Do you have to show off?" I asked smiling.

"Im just letting you learn from the master." he said kissing me. We danced around a little more when Anna came in shaking her head. "You guys! Feet should be turned out! How many times do I have to say that?" she said fixing our feet.

We both giggled at our adoptive daughter. She was eight and busy as ever. She finally called me mommy instead of Mary. But of course I didn't mind. "Mommy! How about some of those chocolate pancakes?!?" she said running away.

"Lord have mercy Michael what have you fed that child last night?"

"Oh....just some candy and ice cream. Harmless." he said shrugging.

"Ill harmless you mister. Just wait."

"Ooooo....I am so scared." he teased.

I grabbed his crotch. "Scared now?" I asked

"TERRIFIED!" he said squinting in pleasure and pain. I smiled because I knew I was in control at the moment. "Now....are you ready for breakfast moonwalker?"

"Yes I am baby." he said winking. We both laughed.

"DADDY STOP HOGGING THE SYRUP!" Anna yelled at Michael as he covered his pancakes in syrup.

"Michael! Give my baby the syrup!" I said playfully smacking him in the head. Anna giggled and Michael said ouch playfully.

"More eggs and hot sauce please!" Michael said like a kid.

"Oooo I want more sausage please!!!" Anna said back

"Im coming you hungry bears." I said fixing myself a plate. I sat down after giving them their second helping and ate with them.

"Did you call Angie about the wedding plans?" Michael asked

"Yes I did. They are almost set."

"WITH ME THE FLOWER GIRL!!!" Anna said excitedly.

"That's right honey. The most beautiful flower girl Ive ever saw." Michael said to her.

"I agree." I said smiling at them two. I have never seen a father/daughter duo like Michael and Anna. It was almost too heartfelt.

"There's gonna be dancing and goodies and happy faces and Luca...." Anna stopped.

"What was that Anna?" Michael asked

"Yea. I almost thought I heard you say..."

"NOTHING! NOTHING! IM GOING TO GO PLAY ON THE RIDES!" she said running off. Michael and I looked at each other with a puzzled look. "Lucas? Oh boy." I said giggling.

"I don't want no funny monkey's between those two at the wedding." Michael said with a serious look. "Oh Michael....its our wedding. It wouldn't hurt for our daughter to experience young love." I said giggling.

"Yea...but no kissing." Michael said drinking his juice. I laughed. "How bout we kiss?" I said looking at him.

"Mmmmm..." he teased. I leaned into him and kissed him. "I love you Michael Joseph Jackson." I said grabbing his plate.

"I love you more babygirl." he said pulling me back down to him. "Take a rest. Sit with me."

"Ok." I said leaning into him
