Chapter 9
Michael Pov
"Janet, slow down." I was currently on the phone with my younger sister Janet, who, at the moment, was ranting about something I have done recently. "She did what?" I asked. "She came over by my house and said "I'm so sorry for your loss" Janet replied. I slapped my forehead in annoyance. "Do you care to explain yourself Michael Joeseph Jackson?" I smirked. "Do I have a choice Janet Damita Jo Jackson?" I teased. "No." I sighed. "Well, I'll talk to you later Janet." I hung up before she got the chance to oblige.
"What am I going to do with myself?" I muttered. I sighed as I looked over to my phone. "I do owe her." I walked over to the coffee table and dialed the number. "Hey babe, what's up?" I smiled at Stephanie's high pitched voice. "I-I was wondering if you would like to come over for dinner?" She gasped loudly and I chuckled. "I would love to, I'll be there in 20." She hung up and I went in my kitchen to prepare dinner.

"So Alex, how are you and Veronica?" I asked while taking in a spoonful of ice cream. He shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know." He mumbled. I was confused and by the expression on fred and donnas face, I could tell they were confused as well. "What do you mean you don't know?" Fred said while munching on some chips. "We broke up!" He blurted out. We stared at each other wide eyed. "What-what happen?" Chelsea screamed. He shrugged his shoulders once again. "She was messing around with that guy... What's his name? I believe it was Mason." He started back to eating his ice cream. "Damn son, I'm sorry." Fred said patting his back. Alex just nodded.
"So on this so called "topic" of relationships." Alex started. We all chuckled at his attempt to lightening the mood. "Are there any people your involved with." The whole group fell silent. "Oh, so no ones talking now aye?" He stood up and walked around us, like he was going to interrogate us. "You!" He pointed at ally, who was too involved in the jar of Nutella. "Are there any boys I should be concerned about?" She just busted out laughing. "No, I'm still single Sherlock!" We all had a good laugh until Alex stopped. "Ana, what about you?" Alex asked. All eyes were on me.
"Yeah, what about you Anastasia?" Alex asks me. I blush. "Well.." I start, but I don't get that far. "ANASTASIA ROSE-BELLE MENDOZA!" My father stated at the door. All our eyes averted over to my father who was taken back. "What?" I ask with my arms in the air. "I didn't say anything!" He shook his finger. "Any guy who thinks he's good enough for my daughter" he says while cracking his knuckles." Has to go through me!" I run over to my dad and place a kiss on his cheek. "Of course daddy!" He Ruffles my hair as he says goodnight to all my friends. "I'm heading to bed you guys, don't cause any trouble." He points to both Fred and Alex. "We promise." We say in unison. He nods and walks away.
"Ana, you were saying?" Ally asked. I sighed. I didn't know who I would be talking about. Of course I was thinking of Michael. What was I going to say? I'm smitten for my music teacher!? Plus, it's against the rules and he has a girlfriend. I didn't see how she looked but I knew it was a woman by the pitch of voice. "Uh, no, I'm not involved." Donna eyes me suspiciously but decided to let it go with a shrug.

"Stephanie , stop it!" I laughed. She was chasing me all around my house. I made a sharp turn and ran up the stairs. I bet she didn't know where I was because there is a flight leading to the basement and there is a flight leading up to the room. "Michael, where are you?" She taunted. I crouched down and kept quiet by my bed stand. She sighed. "Okay Michael, i give up now." I slowly rose from my spot and she gaped at me. "I can't believe I didn't see you!" She said. I shook my head. "Come on dinner is ready."
"Baby, dinner is so delicious!" Stephanie praised. I nodded. "Thank you." I mumbled. "So, how are you... You know with your aunt dying and all?" She asked. I rolled my eyes as I was facing my plate then I looked at her. "Uh, I'm fine we weren't close at all so I'm not really fazed by it." I lowly said. She shook her head. "I took a visit to Janet's house, you know, to see how she was doing." I nodded as we continued eating dinner.
"Babe, I know you said you want me to go to my aunts wedding but-" "Baby, I told you to go to the wedding, I'm a big boy, I'm fine." She continued playing with her food with her fork. She looked sad a little so I put my fork down and motioned her to come over to me. She rose from her seat and sat on my lap. "Michael, I'm sorry I just wante-" "Girl, I understand everything your saying, how about we go watch a movie. She nodded as we went to the living room. We watched her favorite movie, Jurassic Park. She was slowly falling asleep so I decided to go on Facebook. I saw her name and I quickly pressed "friend request" I sighed and watched the movie.

We were all in the kitchen, getting some more snacks. Miguel was now hanging out with us because he had come home late for some reason. "So what are we going to do now guys?" Donna asked. I shrugged. "How about a movie?" Everyone agreed and we headed for the movie room. Alex played "rush hour" and we all sat and watched. I heard a notification erupt from my phone and saw it was from Facebook. I smiled. I saw Michael had requested to be my friend and I gladly accepted. I got another notification minutes later
Michael: hey
