Her Brother's Best Friend

25

When Anastasia and Michael finish their performance, Smokey walks up on stage.

"Wasn't that just beautiful?" Smokey asked the audience and they agree."Don't you think they sound spectacular together?" Smokey smiled at Anastasia and Michael, then says to them."Thank you for singing for us. I love you both, dearly."

Anastasia kisses Smokey's cheek and Michael pulls him into a hug.

"Well, it looks like the party is over." Smokey pouted and the audience laughs."Again, I want to thank everyone for coming. I hope you had a wonderful time. Goodnight."

After Anastasia says goodnight to some people she began to make her way to the exit.

Before she stepped outside she stopped then rolled her eyes and said to herself."Dammit, I forgot Kym drove me here."

"Anastasia, do you need a ride?" Michael asked and she looked at him.

She did a short laugh."You're joking right? With you and Lulu? Nah, I'll past."

He sighs."Ana--"

"Hey, Anastasia, you need a ride?" Prince asked and Anastasia smiled.

"Yes, that would be lovely."

"Come, baby." He said, hooking his arm around her.

Michael frowned, watching them walk out of the building.

Calm down, Michael. He thought to himself. Don't make a scene. Not in front of all these people.

"Anastasia, Prince over here! Are you two in love?! What about Michael?! When did this happen?! Kiss! Do you love him?!"

Anastasia and Prince ignore the paparazzi then get into his car and drive away.

"Thank you for the ride, Prince." Anastasia smiled then leaned over and kissed his cheek."Goodnight."

He smiled."Goodnight."

She gets out of his car then walks up to her front door. She gives him one last wave before walking into her house.

Anastasia goes to her room and takes a shower then brushes her teeth. She throws on her satin robe then walks out of the bathroom to see Michael sitting on her bed.

She jumps back scared."Fuck! Michael! What the hell are you doing here?!"

He looks at her then stands up."I wanted to make sure you made it home okay."

"Or to make sure Prince wasn't lying in my bed." She said and he rolled his eyes."Don't worry, he's not here. But he will be tomorrow night." She giggled.

He walks up to her and growls in her face."You know what, Anastasia--"

"What Michael?" She questioned with a smirk.

A smile formed on his face and he pulled her to his body.

She tried to push him away but he held on tighter."What are you doi--"

"Stop. I'm getting tired of this." He said then leaned down and kissed her lips.

"Mm--no Michael."

"Shh, let me give you what you want, Anastasia."

"I don't want anything from you." Anastasia said and Michael licked up her neck.

"You're lying, baby girl." He said then pulled away and stared down into her eyes.

"I know." She admitted then cupped his face and kissed him.

He backed her towards the bed and they fall on it.
