Strangers In Moscow

Chapter 4 Pt. 4

Shirley's P.O.V.

When I opened my eyes, it was more than I imagined! There were candles everywhere. It was dimmed lighting. There was a long, white, beautiful table and sitting at the table was the entire Jackson family! I turn back to Michael, who has the hugest smile on his face. To say I was surprised was an understatement!!!! "Oh my God, Michael! Are you sure you're ready for me to meet your family?!", I ask, glancing at everyone from Janet to Marlon. "Honey, I've never been so sure in my entire life!", he says sweetly. "He's right. He hasn't been this sure even when making an album," Quincy jokes as Michael playfully punches him. Michael takes my hand, looks deeply in my eyes. Those brown eyes melt me every single time. I've always said his childhood lives through his eyes. They light up anybody and can brighten anyone's day. "Shirley, I enjoy having you beside me every minute. I enjoy spending time with you. I can't pinpoint one thing I like about you, because there's too many to count. I would like to know if I could have the honor of being your boyfriend?", he asked as he graced me with a beautiful smile. "AWWWWWW!" Janet, Latoya, Rebbie, and Katherine say in unison. Michael and I burst out in laughter. "Yes Michael! I would love to be your girlfriend!", I say while blushing. The family claps and cheers for us as if we just said our wedding vows. Michael picks me up in a hug and spins me around in a circle. The three of us walk over so that I could be officially introduced to the family. I can't believe we're official. Never in a million years did I ever think I'd be dating my favorite singer. A dream I'd thought never would happen...
