MJ Story: The Nanny

Chapter 19

*I would like to briefly say Rest in Heaven to Lisa Marie Presley. No disrespect to her real character as my stories are untrue and only fantasy. The show must go on, but respectfully.*

Aaliyah woke up hours later after her accident, squinting at the bright lights above her. Her mom appeared above her, softly calling out, "Honey?"

Aaliyah attempted to speak but she was very weak and extremely tired. Her mother shushed her as she saw her daughter was struggling to speak. A small tear left her eye as she grabbed Aaliyah's hand and held it tightly.

It was the next morning when Aaliyah finally woke up and realized her whereabouts. "Mama?!" She called out to her mother who was lightly sleeping in the chair next to her bed. Her mother jumped up and kissed her forehead, "How are you feeling, honey?"

"Well, my head is hurting a bit. I'm in the hospital? What happened to me? Why am I here? Omg! My baby!" Aaliyah cried as she placed her hand to her stomach.

Her mother's face grew sad as she stroked Aaliyah's hair and sighed heavily, "Sweetie... you were involved in a car accident. I'm so sorry, honey, but the baby didn't make it."

"What?" Aaliyah responded faintly, almost whispering. Her heart fell into her stomach and her world fell apart in a matter of seconds as she looked up to the ceiling. She started feeling sick to her stomach, going numb as she tried to process those heartbreaking words.

Her mother allowed her to have a moment to herself. When the doctor came in and further explained her loss, Aaliyah laid there still. She was so confused as to why this had to happen to her and she completely lost it when she heard her doctor say, "However, a woman named Lisa brought you in and made sure you were in good hands before she left."

Later that night, Michael was preparing dinner for the kids when the door opened and Lisa stepped in. She was limping, pretty bruised up. Michael ran over to his hurting wife and asked, "Oh God Lisa! Are you okay? What happened?"

She cried softly, "I had an accident. I ran a stop sign and I crashed into Aaliyah, Michael. Oh Gooodddd! She was bleeding so bad. I think she lost her baby."

Michael's face formed into confusion, "What?"

"You probably think I did that purposely, but I promise I didn't. I avoided the stop sign, Michael! I crashed into that woman and I made her lose her baby! Omg!" Lisa screamed as she began falling to the ground. Michael attempted to catch her as he remained silent, trying to understand what he had heard. Once Lisa was calm, she gave him the information to the hospital where she took Aaliyah in. She decided to stay home with the kids while he stepped out.

At the hospital, Michael received his visitor's badge and Aaliyah's mother met him in the lobby.

"Oh Michael! Thank you for coming," she said as they hugged.

"How is she?" He asked as they began walking towards the elevator.

"Silent. Hurting. Lisa told you about the accident huh?"

He nodded, "She did. I was on the phone with LiLi at the time. I tried her back multiple times and couldn't get through. I had no idea this was why."

As they entered the room, Aaliyah laid there, staring to the side blankly. Michael gently reached to touch her hand and she glanced at him, tears filling her eyes.

"I'm so sorry, LiLi," he squeezed her hand, bringing it to his lips to kiss as he sat on the bed. She watched him, sobbing so hard it brought tears to both Michael and her mother. He stood to his feet to bring himself closer and held her in his arms. He rocked side to side slowly until she cried herself to sleep.

When Aaliyah was discharged, Michael was there to help her home. She was still in pain, but moving around just a bit better. The car ride started out silent and Michael eventually said, "I don't think now is a good time but Lisa did see about you, LiLi."

"I don't give a damn, Michael! Lisa is dead to me."

"She seemed genuine to me. I promise I'm not just saying that because she's my wife. She admitted to not stopping, LiLi. She broke down and seemed really hurt by what she had done."

"Lisa is everything to you but the true cold hearted bitch she really is. You are still so blind to her bs, Michael! That's the reason I can't be there for you and your family now. She's the reason I can't give those babies all of me anymore! You are becoming just as sick as her!" Aaliyah yelled.

"LiLi, please. That's not fair. You know that I would never do anything to hurt you. I appreciate you so much for coming into our lives and making things better. Easier. Lisa just-"

Aaliyah interrupted him, "Save it. You don't have to continue making excuses for your poor excuse of a wife, mother, and woman. I will be getting a lawyer and I will seek to press charges against your Princess."

Michael sighed, "Charges, LiLi? I can't stop you. I can't ask you to not take that route, but I have to support Lisa. You do realize that this could jeopardize us?"

"Us? There is no us! You don't need me anymore. I don't believe you ever needed me, Michael. This was something I imagined being the best part of my life and all I got in return was SCREWED! This lady poisoned me and ki-ki-killed my unborn child! I've made her kids feel nothing but happiness and love. I've done more for those babies than she probably has her whole motherhood and this is the way I get treated! This is what my life has to be like for devoting myself to her family! I'm tired, Michael. This has gone too far."

Michael pulled to the curb, placing the car in park. He sighed heavily as he grabbed Aaliyah's hand and looked into her eyes, "LiLi, I love you so much for coming into my life and loving on my children and showing them true feminine love. I never imagined Lisa to be this sick person. I would never put anyone in your shoes if I knew she could go so low. I'm so sorry that I've made your life this way by bringing you into our home and making you apart of us. You didn't deserve any of this."

Aaliyah's eyes leaked water as she slid her hand away from his touch. She was hurting so badly on the inside and outside. They hadn't noticed the car pulling up behind them. Calvin rushed out of his car and Aaliyah sat up as she noticed through the mirror.

"Oh no! Calvin!"

Michael turned to look, "Your ex? The baby was his?"

Aaliyah nodded, startled as Calvin banged on the window.

"You got some nerve, Aaliyah! You fucked up keeping this from me!"

"You didn't tell him, LiLi?" Michael asked as they watched Calvin curse through the window.

"I hate him, Michael. I never wanted him involved."
