Ramona's POV:

I wake up and have a shower then I look in my closet, I got told smart clothes today so I go with the casual blazer and trousers look. I apply light make up even through I was debating the full on make up barbie look but my parents would kill me, well my dad wouldn't but my mother would for sure.

"Ramona hurry up" my mother calls from downstairs as soon as Megan left

"I'm getting ready" I shout down whilst looking at what earphones to use today

"Ramona now!"

"no!" I pick my black beats then I put them in and turn on the first song that I see heading downstairs, I see my mother talking to me but I can't hear her due to my music.

"listen to me when I'm talking to you" she says as soon as she pulls my earphones out

"don't touch my earphones!" I snap

"Ramona, please. come on and lose the attitude please" Dad sighs walking away.

I feel sorry for my dad cause he always gets caught up in mine and mother's arguments which is every hour of the day. Me and my mother have a love hate relationship, mostly on the hate side. I have no idea why but since as far back as I can remember we just never got on, I would rebel against her and even when I tried not to I still did, it was like my brain wasn't listening to me and making me do the complete opposite of what I want. My dad on the other hand is completely different, I'm his little princess always have and always will be. I know he hates me and mother arguing cause he's a family man and he always remind me that I should be nicer to mother and only one mother I'd ever have.

"thank you" dad smiles as I leave and get in the car, I keep my earphones in not speaking a word and I look out the window to see where we are going.

Michael's POV:

As much as I hate this I still gotta look good to make a good first impression. I go with causal clothes and puts on my favourite shirt I make my way downstairs and I get myself a drink.

"Michael they will be here soon" Mother smiles

"ok" I half smile back

"you know it's for the best"

"really? cause I don't think so"

"you was the hardest to find someone for out of all your siblings. we found the perfect girl"

"can I go back to my room until they arrive?"

"of course"

I walk off and goes to my room, how was I the hardest? I'm not that bad am I?

"Michael come downstairs please" Mother calls after I heard some talking downstairs but I didn't hear who the guest was. I get up and look in the mirror

"ok you can do this" I say to myself then make my way downstairs

Ramona's POV:

we arrive and my eyes goes wide, no not a Jackson. I take my earphones out and I put my ipod in the glovebox, I made sure I was the last to get out the car.

"it better be Randy or Marlon cause I ain't marrying afro" I say referring to Michael

"you'll marry who we tell you to" mother says

"whatever" I say rolling my eyes

"Ramona" my father warns and I go to answer but I keep quiet.

we greet Katherine and Joseph then we take a seat, I sit there nervously whilst tapping my foot in the floor which is what I do when I'm nervous. wouldn't you be nervous too? you're at a house about to see which one of the 3 possible people you have to marry bearing mind one of which you don't get along with great.

"dork" Michael greets as he takes a seat

"afro" I say back then our eyes goes wide, great just great.

"what, it's dork I gotta marry?" Michael says

"I'm not marrying him"

"and I'm not marrying her, I mean look at her"

"oh thanks"

"what? it's true, we're opposite. we have nothing in common, we don't even get along 100%"

"well you two are getting married end of" Joseph says

Michael's POV:

ugh why her? out of every girl in the world they picked her. we both sit there giving eachother death glares and eye stand offs. finally they leave after 2hours, I don't say a word to mother or Joseph and I go to my room. I log into Twitter and post a tweet before anything else

@MichaelJackson7: so I met my future wife today...let's just say it will be a long time before it ends up being good

Ramona's POV:

I log onto twitter and I notice Jermaine tweeted Michael

@Jermaine_Jackson: @MichaelJackson7 ha, guess you're going the same way I did. good luck buddy

I click on Michael's page and yes, it isn't private unlike mine so I can see everything. I saw his tweet and wow, that was deep. I actually like Michael, a lot. Yes I know that is shocking but I don't know why, it's just something about him. I favourite his tweet, not like he will notice cause it's been up a few minutes and already has over 400 favourites. i then accept my follower requests and then I go and make a video for youtube

Michael's POV:

I was about to log out but my notification went back to one after I clicked on it, wow I wasn't expecting that

@thatretrogeekramona favourite your tweet

I go onto her profile and damnit, it's private. I wanna actually be nosey and try to get to know her but how? I go to her Instagram page, private. I go to her facebook, not open. she don't have any other does she? there's only one last option.....youtube. I see she's on the homepage, again. It's a new video which got uploaded 3 minutes ago and already has over 1, 000 views/thumbs up. I decide to watch to see why she has so many views and subscribers

"hey guys, thank you all for your good luck comments for today. I met my future husband and lets just say it wasn't good, I'm not reveling the name yet cause that means admitting it's true and that my life is well en truly ruined. The thing is the boy....I know him, I practically grew up with him. we don't get along too well so that's just great."

I turn it off, I can't watch anymore. she isn't the only one with a ruined life.

Ramona's POV:

"but underneath all of this I kinda like him, but I doubt that he likes me. so my question to you guys is what would you do if you was in my position?" I smile and say bye then end the video, that was my first live video thanks to youtube finally putting live camera on. Yes you heard right, I do like Michael. I have for a while but we never get along so how is that possible?

"Ramona have you started to pack yet?" Mother calls up

"yes" I call down, obviously a lie. Me and Michael have to move into a house together, well it's a ranch and is 3 acres so if he gets on my nerves I can be far away from him.

Michael's POV:

I finish packing, I'm so glad the ranch is big so we can stay away from each other meaning we only have to act all loved up in public, acting can't be that hard can it? I done some shows that involved acting for example the cereal one I did with my brothers. Today has been the worst, not only did I find out that who I gotta marry but I also found out that I'm moving out tomorrow so I guess that's it, this is my life now let's just hope it works out.
