School went pretty well, Brooke gave me her usual stare downs here and there but other then that it was great. Aaliyah and I ditched our old lunch table and sat at Michael's table. It was so much fun to be around them. I have no idea where Michael gets popcorn from but he always manages to throw popcorn at Marlon.

After school Aaliyah dragged me to the music room. "Your not missing another rehearsal". I giggled and rolled my eyes. When we walked in Aaliyah dragged me up on to the stage and asked the teacher to play the song. We went over the song 3 times and each time we sounded amazing.

"We need to add some dance moves, we look like 2 idiots just standing there singing." Aaliyah said deep in thought. I walked off the stage and looked up at her. "And how are we going to do that, we know nothing about dancing and we don't know anyone that can even help us practice or come up with something".

Michael hugged me from behind. "I can help you guys come up with a dance". I turned around to look at him. "Wait are you serious...you would do that for us". He grabbed my shoulders.

"I'll always help you and Aaliyah". My heart started to beat faster. He was staring deep in my eyes. "When are you two going to kiss already" Aaliyah said giggling as she walked up to us. Michael and I quickly looked away shyly.

"Michael so when are we going to practice?" I asked trying to break the awkward silence. "I'm free everyday after school, we can practice whenever". He said.

"So we should practice every Friday and Saturday...the show is only a few weeks away so we have to figure out something fast." Aaliyah said.

"Good enough for me" I said. Michael Walked on stage and fixed the microphone stand. Aaliyah and I sat down in the chairs up against the wall. Michael started to sing but it wasn't P.Y.T. It was something a lot calmer. His voice was so beautiful and passionate.

"I'm starting with the man in the mirror..." he sang. As he sang the song I understood the deep meaning to it. It sounded so good but it would be great if he had back up vocals to it. When he finished singing it, Everyone in the music room started clapping and when I glanced over at the music teacher he was wiping his tears and clapping.

Michael walked off the stage and I walked up to him and hugged him. "Michael that song was so amazing and beautiful" I said. He thanked me in the sweetest tone. "Why did you choose a different song to sing?" I asked.

"Because I wanted to sing something motivational, hoping that some people will be encouraged and change there ways". I could tell he said that with the severity of his heart. Aaliyah fake coughs "Brooke Shields" then coughs again. "Sorry guys I don't know what's going on...must be my allergies." I hit her shoulder gently and laugh and Michael even started laughing but hid his face into his hands.

"Jasmine, can you come with me to my house after practice I really need your help with something" I shook my head, "of course, are you ok". I put my hand on his shoulder and he froze there staring at me. "Michael are you ok?" I asked and he shook his head. "I'm sorry Jasmine I got nervous".

"Why did you get nervous?" I looked at him tilting my head. "Because I- um". I stared into his eyes. "It's nothing...I'm going to go practice my song again". He walked away and I even saw him hit his forehead.

"What was that about?" Aaliyah asked. I shrugged my shoulders. "Come on let's go try to make up some dance moves" I said while dragging Aaliyah to an area in the room that had enough space to move around in. After about 10 minutes of struggling with dance moves Michael walked over to us. "You want some help". He giggled. Aaliyah and I shot daggers at him with our eyes.

"It's not funny this is hard". Aaliyah said. Michael did a spin and did some moves that had me convinced that he was part robot. "No it's not dancing is easy". Aaliyah and I looked at him with our mouthes open. "I'm glad your teaching us how to dance". I said blushing. Michael smiled and looked down at his feet.

"Oh my god are you free now Michael, because we can start practice today" Aaliyah asked all excited. "Well I needed Jasmine to come over..." Aaliyah made a loud screech cutting Michael off. "Great so let's go to your house". She grabbed Michaels wrist and drags him towards the door. He looks back at me with a confused look and I couldn't help but giggle and shrug my shoulders.

When we got to Michael's house Aaliyah took a seat on the couch and Michael dragged me upstairs to his room and shut the door. He took off his blue sweater and the white shirt he had on under it. He grabbed something off the top of his dresser and hid it behind his back.

I couldn't help but look at how tone his body look and the vitiligo just made him more perfect to me. This was something unique whether he saw that or not. He walked up to me and with every step he took my heart started pounding faster. He stood in front of me and smiled. I looked up at him then at the spots on his chest and stomach. "So how's it going since the last time we were at the doctors". I said while running my hands lightly over the spots.

My finger traced over the barely visible six pack that he had. "It's been going well I'm using the cream she prescribed me". He handed me the cream that he was hiding behind his back. "Can you put it on me?" My eyes grew wide. "W-What...Michael are you sure....it's not going to be crossing boundaries or uncomfortable for yo...." he quickly cut me off

"Woah Silly, I meant on my back". He said giggling. My face turned red and I looked down at my hands. He sat down on the bed next to me and put his hand in mine. I looked at him and he kissed me on my cheek.

I wish he'd actually kiss me already. I smiled at him and kissed him on the cheek to let him know I felt the same way and his face turned red. I took the cream and put in in my hands he turned around so that his back was facing me and I started to rub it on his back.

I got so into it that I basically started giving him a back massage. He let his head hang down and I can tell he enjoyed it. After 10 minutes, He turned around and stood up. "How did you learn to give such good massages". I looked up at him and giggled. "I never learned it was just a gift I always had".  He held my face, "thank you for helping me today".

"What are y'all up to, you disappeared for about 15 minutes...oooooo sorry". Aaliyah Came bursting through the door. Michael looked behind him and I peeked out from the side of his body with his hands still on my face. Aaliyah started laughing. "I didn't know y'all was about to get down and dirty". Michael quickly stood back and I got off the bed and stood next to him.

We both tried explaining what happened. "No it wasn't like that, we weren't doing anything". Aaliyah smirked at our nervous explanations. "Woah Michael your skin...are you ok?"

He looked down at his bare chest and quickly picked his shirt off the floor and covered it. "I'm fine" before Michael could walk off in embarrassment I grabbed his hand. "Michael you don't have to be embarrassed Aaliyah and I would never judge you, we care about you". He smiled at me, "thank you guys I appreciate the both of you". We all leaned in for a group hug. This was the start of a trustworthy friend group.
