Show Time
I walk through the gates and down the long path past the rides to where the ice cream stand is stationed at. From afar I can see Michael talking to this younger girl with pig tails in her hair, he hands her ice cream and she leaves as I walk up. Michael is wearing my apron that I had left there last night, the only problem was he had spilled chocolate syrup on the top of it. I laugh as he approaches me in his 'disguise' which was just a pair of shades.
"What have you been up to?" I ask reaching for the napkins so I could clean off the apron he was wearing.
"Well, I served three of four people....they were really nice, but the first kid wanted the most difficult order and I kinda needed your help but you weren't here yet so I did my best and this happened." He laughs nervously and faces me so I could wipe the chocolate syrup off.
"Well its okay, as long as no one got hurt. How long have you been here?"
"About ten minutes why?"
"You served four people in ten minutes?! I get like at least two to three people in a half hour! How did you do it?"
"You see I just got that kinda affect on people, you know? They can't get enough of me." He smiles and laughs. I laugh along with him.
"Well that must mean I'm ugly or something, but anyway let's get to work." I state pulling him back towards the stand.
We start work but Michael insisted that we had to listen to music so he turns on the small radio that was next to the stand and comes a station that played motown music. The temptations come on and Michael starts dancing and helping me with the orders I had. The day goes by quickly and my shift ends. I clean up the stand and we head back towards the gates.
" So you know I have a show tonight" Michael starts
"Yes"
"Well then why are we heading towards the gates?" He asks confused
"Because I have to go home silly" I giggle
"You're not staying for the show?"
"No I can't" I say
"Well why not?" He asks a little saddened
" Because in order to stay for shows you have to pay an extra 70 to 100 dollars for a ticket, and right now I don't have that. I'm sorry Michael, I will try and-"
"You can still go! I can get you in as my guest! You would have to stay backstage though" Michael cuts me off.
"I don't know if I coul-"
"Nonsense come on" he says grabbing my arm and pulling me towards the castle where the stage is set up. Its around 8:00 at night and there is a small crowd gathered around. Michael pulls me behind the stage where they have small tents set up everywhere. Michael runs to the far end and leads me into the tent that was suppose to be his makeshift dressing room. ( which basically was two tents put together...) I sit in one half while Michael changes into his wardrobe on the other end behind curtains separating the two.
He enters my side of the tent in a white button up and black pants he sits at the mirror in front of me as a lady with blonde hair enters with a bag and begins to put his stage makeup on, he used to have to get this done when he was younger but not exactly with as much makeup as I had seen before. The lady finished doing her thing and left me and Michael alone, he turns around in his chair and grins.
"I go out in around ten minutes, there is a cooler over there if you need something to drink alright?"
" Okay" I agree with him
"Just don't drink any alcohol, I don't think your legal yet" he laughs
"Neither are you, we are the same age remember? And besides I don't plan on drinking alcohol." I smile
"Okay just be safe and don't hurt yourself doing anyth-" he gets cut off by a staff member telling him that he had five minutes left. Michael checks himself in the mirror and sprays some cologne on before standing up, he reaches for my hand and pulls me up to give me a hug.
"I'm nervous" he whispers into my ear
"It will be fine, you will do great just like you always do, and i will be here when you finish" I say as he reaches for his shades
"Thank you Nicole" he says before leaving
A few minutes later I here him singing to the crowd and I see him on a small monitor that was in front of the tent. He was dancing, and spinning, making the crowd go crazy. Later during the show an assistant comes in and says that Michael had wanted her to check on me, she hands me a bottle and leaves, the bottle had something written in french on it, I didn't know what it was but when I opened it, it had smelled like grapes so I took small drinks of it. Towards the end of the show Michael had started singing throwbacks from when he was younger and in the Jackson 5, I knew these songs so I started singing and dancing along with the music. I had to stop because I became really dizzy and a little sick. I sat back down in my chair and watched the remaining of the show from the little monitor. Michael thanked his fans for coming out to see him, said I love you and left the stage. He soon came back to the dressing room and removed his wardrobe and placed the clothes he had from before back on, he comes from behind the curtain and finds a towel to wipe his face. He sees me andgives a look of concern.
"Are you alright Nicole?" He says. I couldn't hold it in, there was just something way too funny about his voice, I burst out with laughter and get up from my chair. I still feel dizzy so I had to wobble over to him.
"Of course I'm fine, why wouldn't I be?" I say a little to loud
"Well, your eyes are a little red, and you can't exactly walk" he says wrapping his arm around my waist.
"I'm fine, I promise" I yell holding my arms in the air to prove I'm okay I fall backwards a little and Michael pulls me up.
"What on earth? Okay what did you drink?" He asks. I laugh again and point towards the mirror
"I had that grape stuff , its..... its in that uh bottle over there with- all the fancy writing on it yea" I whisper into his neck. He giggles softly and shakes his head, my head suddenly hurts like crazy and everything goes black.
..................................................................................................................
I am awaken by a bright light shining in my eyes. I squint and sit up, my head feels like an elephant had sat on it for about three days. As I gain my eyesight I see that I am under silk sheets and there is a blanket at the end of the bed. I look to see that there is paintings of Disney characters around the large room I'm in. Wtf? The last time I checked my room had posters of James brown, Stevie wonder, and Michael(not in a weird way). Where am I? I look back down at the bed and see that I'm in a button up shirt? I panic and jump out the bed. Someone groans from next to me and I scream. I turn quickly to see an alarmed Michael staring at me.
"What s wrong, what happened, are you alright?" Michael asks
"What? How did I get here and what did you do, where am I ?" I ask backing up towards the window. Michael gets up and stands near the bed,wearing a white t shirt and plaid night pants. He rubs his eyes and stretches
" You got drunk last night, you were drinking some kind of alcohol, I mean I don't exactly know what it was.... but after the show you were acting crazy and passed out. I had my assistant help me take you up here and she changed you into one of my shirts and placed you in the bed, I just laid next to you and here we are, I promise I didn't do anything. You were knocked out the whole time."He catches his breath and yawns walking over towards me
"Promise?" I ask holding out my pinkie
"Promise." He says locking his pinkie with mine. I then remember how stupid I was acting and turn bright red. I embarrassed myself last night. My stomach starts to hurt. Great.
"Michael, quick question." I gasp
"Yes?"
"Where is your restroom?" I ask
He points to the left and I see a door with a jacket hanging on the door knob. I take off running and kneel over the toilet, all the alcohol from last night returns and I begin to cry. I hear Michael call my name and he comes into the room. I feel him kneel next to me and he pulls my hair back until I'm finished crying and everything is gone.
"Michael?"
"Yes?"
"Thank you"
"Your welcome" he says
I take tissue from next to me and wipe my eyes, Michael let's go of my hair and I turn and hug him laying my head on his shoulder. We sit there for a moment and I begin to cry onto his shoulder again.
"What's wrong?" Michael asks
"I feel horrible" I mumble
"There is pain reliever in the top cabinet" he says getting up pulling me with him I sit on the chair next to the mirror. He finds it and hands me two pills and a small glass of water, I take it and hand the glass back. He smiles and reaches for my hand leading me back into the bedroom.
"Is there anything you need?" He asks
"Uh- a toothbrush?"
"They are in the drawer under the sink, what else?"
"A nap?" I smile and turn back to the bathroom, I find a brand new tooth brush and brush my teeth. I go back into the room and find my bag, I look for my makeup bag and go back to the bathroom I rinse my face and place eyeliner and mascara on with a lip gloss and go back into the room to find Michael writing in a little book. I tie my hair into a messy bun and look for my clothes.
"Michael? "
"Yes?" He responds looking back over at me
"Where are my clothes?" He thinks for a moment
"My assistant had taken to clean them last night, she took mine too, but I might have something if you need it" he says
"When will she be back?" I ask sitting next to him
"Around four maybe" he says unsure I look at my watch and see that its only 11:00. What now? I guess I have to call in sick for work
"Do you have a phone?" I ask
"Yes its right next to you if you need it." He says muffled from the toothbrush in his mouth. I pick up the phone and call my manager. I tell him that I was sick and I had to take a day off, all he said was if I had missed another day I would be fired, apparently he was mad because he had hung up too fast. I groan and place the phone down. Michael comes back into the bedroom fully dressed and throws clothes at me.
"Hey!" I smile
"Hi." He laughs sitting at the end of the bed to put on his shoes.
"What is this for?" I ask
"You to wear" he smirks, right. Like I can fit onto Michaels clothes...
I go into the restroom and place the clothes on. The pants were a little snug, like form fitting. I can go with it , I place on the button up Michael gave me and walk back out the restroom. Michael stands at the window looking outside. I slowly walk up behind him being careful not to make a noise. I get closer to him and jump on his back. A small shriek comes from him as he turns around and I laugh.
"Thank you!" I yell, he realizes that it was me and grabs the bottom of my legs so I wouldn't fall. He spins me around and I scream hiding my face onto his shoulder. Michael sits me onto the bed and runs away.
"I have to get my shades!" He says running into another room
I giggle and sit up placing on my converses on, Michael comes back and smiles.
"Those look nice on you" he says
"Thanks" I smile
"Ready to go?" He asks
"Yea but where?" I say grabbing my bag and walking over to him.
"Breakfast, and I have to run some errands, did the medicine work?" He asks
"Yes thanks, you saved my life" I say walking out the door
"Well you know, thats what I do" he says locking his door and leading me to the elevator I laugh and shove his shoulder.
"Yea okay" I smile.
..................................................................................................................
At the restaurant...
We had left Disney and arrived at a small restaurant down the road.
"Hello what could I get you guys today?" The lady asks standing in front of us. I look at Michael and see that he is already looking at me we both grin at each other and look back at the waitress.
" French toast!" Michael and I say in sync. I giggle and the waitress looks at us like we are crazy. She then smiles
"Is that all?" She asks.
"Yes thank you." Michael states trying to contain his laughter. The Lady leaves and Michael bursts out with laughter.
"I guess we haven't changed" Michael says
"Yea we still eat the same thing for breakfast" I giggle. Michael suddenly stops laughing and looks down.
"Whats wrong?" I ask confused. He looks up a little and points towards the door. A girl around our age walked in with a tall muscular guy holding her around her tiny waist. The girl had dark hair that was long and placed into tight curls. The sound of her heels feel the quiet restaurant and she stops. I quickly turn around but she noticed us. I here her loud heels come up behind me , she stops in front of us with the huge guy holding her and smiles. Michael looks at her with pain in his eyes.
"Hey Tatiana" he says a bit quiet
"Hey Michael, look I only came over here to let you meet Danny, he is my new boyfriend, he does weight lifting. I met him at a club, and I told him how you left me and he took me in, oh wait, I see you moved on too.Who is she one of your maids?" She laughs. I can tell now by her laugh that she's an annoying person. I look back towards Michael confused. I thought she left him? He looks at me and then back at her. The waitress quickly comes by and drops our food off, I reach in my bag and find thirty dollars to pay her she thanks me and walks away. Michael then speaks up.
"First of all, she is not my maid. Meet Nicole my childhood friend. And if I'm correct it was you who left me after you got what you wanted so don't blame everything on me. And yes I have moved on, so its best if you do the same and keep walking. Goodbye." He says facing back towards me. How could he have moved on, he was just upset about it a couple of days ago. Tatiana scoffs and rolls her eyes
"Well you and your little childhood friend can be together, but let's face it she'll never be half the woman I am" I feel a little saddened by what she says but I decided to stop listening and start to eat my french toast. I place a river of syrup on my food and start to cut in when Michael begins to talk again, I keep my head down.
"Yea you're right Tatiana, Nicole has traveled all the way here to find me again, in fact we just met up again a few days ago, she has never wanted anything from me but our friendship. You on the other hand only wanted to sleep around with my friends, spend all my money, and leave once you got a modeling contract. So you are right, Nicole would never be a selfish bitch like you. Oh and by the way Danny I wouldn't buy her anything expensive if I were you, she's only gonna sell it." He says getting up
"Let's go Nicole, we can find somewhere else to eat." He says holding out his hand. I put on my bag and walk by Tatiana.
"Fake ass bitch" she mumbles. I smile at her and turn around picking up my french toast and smash it into her face
"Nice to meet you Tatiana, have a great day" I smile before taking Michaels hand and leaving. I can here Tatiana scream before I get into the car and Michael drives off.
"Thank you for standing up for me in there" I smile, Michael chuckles and looks towards me before looking back at the road.
"I think you did a pretty good job yourself, and she didn't even have the right to bring you in this, I think she was jealous" he smiles. I feel like this is gonna be a crazy year.
