Michael's pov
1973

She's..she's mine ! I never actually thought Mia Beverly was gonna be my girl ! I've never felt so confident , so loving , so happy she's not Marlon's not Donny Osmond's she's mine..my girl.

We finally came apart and I already missed her touch

"Michael, we cannot let this get out especially to my mother and your father and the media" she went on with a worried look on her face.

She looked really concerned about this with her eyebrows scrunched making her look cuter than before.

"Don't worry Mia, I wouldn't let that happen we're gonna make this work and it's gonna be okay I promise" I said reassuring her she gave me a small  smile and continued to rock back and fourth with me with her head on my shoulder and life in that moment seemed absolutely stable.

***

"5,6,7,8, and 1" counted off Suzanne de Passe she was guide to Motown before we were real big and she's been with us ever since.

"Come on guys smile ! The only one I got smiling right now is Michael" she said

Which was true I just couldn't stop smiling after being with Mia and sharing that wonderful moment with her, I left after awhile of us just talking and cuddling and a few kisses in between and I couldn't stop thinking about her. That's why I couldn't stop smiling.

"Alright guys let's take five" she said with a loss while walking out of the room

We all dispersed for water and seats, they all looked a little exhausted except for Marlon he just looked mad it was probably because I was in the room and didn't look miserable like him.

"Hey what's up with you mike, I've never seen you this happy rehearsing" asked Jermaine eyeing me

"You been smoking or something ?" He joked while poking my chest

"No, I haven't been smoking" I said laughing a little and swatting his hand away

"Then what is it" Jackie said over his shoulder from getting water obviously listening in to our conversation Tito looked back at us too wanting to know what was going on

"Nothing" I said while looking down still smiling

Then Jermaine finally got it

"He's got a girl" he gasped

"Oouuu mikes got a girlllll" Tito chimed in

"No, I don't got no girl" I said rubbing my neck with embarrassment and not knowing what to say because Mia didn't want this getting out because I would love to brag about her but she didn't want that.

"Yeah he does , look he's blushin" said Jackie pinching my cheek

"Stop it guys, I ain't got no girl !" I said getting a bit irritated at all their teasing

"I know who it could be! Mia Beverly" Jermaine stated

My eyes widen how would he know that, I mean I know we're close and all but we don't show our affection at all in public!

"Oh Michael, you're so great and I would never cheat on you with Donny Osmond" Jackie said in a high pitched voice trying to mock Mia and that's when I just had to open my big mouth

"Don't mock her like that !" I yelled a little

"Ouuu they're definitely together I mean he's defending her Tito tagged back

Then while I was steaming and Jermaine,Jackie and Tito were still laughing at themselves with their teasing We heard a loud noise from Marlon. He slammed his hand on the table that was near him and walked out of the Room obviously infuriated that the boys could picture Mia with me and not him.

"What's wrong him" Jermaine asked with a stank face in his direction

We all looked at each other and shrugged. Our 5 was over quick and we continued with rehearsing

Mia's pov

"Alright Mia I am going to need you to tilt your head up and have your hand under your chin" stated the photographer

I did as I was told and the camera started to click and flash I hated that noise and loved it at the same time ,all depending on my mood.

After the photo shoot my mother and I were escorted to a studio for a new film I was going to star in, another thing added to my 15 year old plate.

We walked in to where the set was, the lights and cameras the the people bustling around I couldn't deny it I loved the set feel and I loved Hollywood I really did I just didn't like the change it had on the people who live in it.

I was stuck in my thoughts when my mother interrupted them with her certain voice she only used when we were around directors and castors  especially if she knew them her voices turned posh

"Mia, this is Malcom Well he is the director directing this moving who wanted you to star in it" she said with a proud tone in her voice

"Hello Mia, nice to meet you I wanted you to play this part due to your electric persona" he stated while shaking my hand

"Nice to meet you, I'm very excited to star in this" I said in the nicest way possible

My mother and the director talked some more and I started to wander the set looking and snooping I noticed that this movie was taking place in the 50's due to going through the wardrobe and props

No one stops me when I snoop around even if I'm being rude or not supposed to do it, they just bight their tongue because I'm  Mia Beverly teen star with a father that's a movie star and a mother who is a very successful model i suppose you would say I'm untouchable, and I hate being that.

What I really wanted to do was go and be with Michael and act like two kids that weren't untouchable and we're vulnerable to the world but that couldn't happen right now.

                                 ***

When my mother and I finally got home my father was already at home with a couple of his coworkers, they were most likely directors trying to come up with a new movie idea.

My mother joined their conversation and I sneaked to my room.

Opened my door and stood in the doorway my bed was made records and record player in place their was no reminisce of the great memory due to our maids unaware that they erased a teen romance

I made my way to orange telephone and decided to listen to my messages, and to my wonderful surprise one of the messages were from Michael

"Mia when you get this come over, my father left for errands my mother decided to see her mother so we would be technically alone, Michael"

Then there was beep and the voicemail ended, my face flushed to a slight pink after thinking about how he wanted me to come over and be with him. So I decided to slip out the door with out much notice with my parents both being engrossed in their work.

I called my driver over and he took me to Hayvenhurst right away.

Somewhat of a cliffhanger! , what do you think will happen at Hayvenhurst??
