It Is Meant to Be {MJ Fanfiction}

You Can't Leave Him!

Sierra's POV

When I wake up, Daniel is no where in sight. I look beside my head and find the popcorn bag. What's that written on it?

His number and a little message.

Sierra,
I had a wonderful time. Call me whenever. Have a great day.

Your Friend,
Daniel Clutterbuck

I giggle at his last name. I sit up. What's covering me? I grab the jacket and look at it. It's Daniel's. I smile to myself. I put it on and stand up. I stretch and grab the popcorn bag. I head back to the house.

I wipe my eyes. Last night was fun. I fell asleep before the movie was over.

I open the backdoor to Neverland and go inside. I hear someone in the kitchen. I hear crying. I go into the kitchen.

"Michael? "

His back his facing me. He takes a breath and says,

"Good morning, Sierra. Would you like some coffee? "

I walk over to him. I turn him towards me. His eyes are red from crying. I say,

"I would like to know what's wrong. "

He begins to cry. I pull him into a hug. He says, through sobs,

"Yesterday, Lisa had took the car...and left me at the reception...she hasn't been home..and she hasn't called....I don't know what to do....."

He looks me in the eyes and says so desperately, "I can't handle another break up! My heart can't take it. "

I take his hand and lead him to his room. I say,

"Shh, Mikey. Everything will be fine. Get in bed. "

He gets under his blanket. I lay on top of the blanket and cuddle him in my arms. I say,

"Shh, Mikey. Everything will be fine. You're OK. She isn't going to leave you. I promise. Just close your eyes and dream. "

His sobs become quieter as he drifts off to sleep. My heart is breaking for him. I need to have a serious talk with Lisa.

I feel someone watching me, so I open my eyes. Lisa is standing in the doorway looking at me with anger in her eyes. I quickly, but carefully, move my arms from underneath Michael. I don't want to wake him. I walk over to Lisa and say,

"Follow me. "

I leave the room and go out in the back. She follows. I turn around and she says, angrily,

"What the hell are you doing? Why were you in my bed with Michael!? "

"Shhhh! If you were here, none of that would've happened. He was crying his eyes out thinking you weren't coming back. He sounded so desperate! He needs you, Lisa! If you leave him, he'll never love again! You probably know by now that he and I were together. It ended badly, but we remained friends. When I say badly, I mean, badly. "

She pauses, then asks, "What happened? "

I sigh and say, "An idiot thought he could kiss me and Michael thought....well, thinks, I liked him. Anyway, Lisa, you can't leave him. You can't have him thinking you're gone. He's hanging on by a thread. Please, be his miracle. "

She seemed surprised at my words. She says,

"I will. I will. "

I nod and say, "He needs you. More than you think. "

She nods. She turns and walks toward the door. She stops and turns around. She says,

"Thank you. "

I nod. She goes inside. I take a deep breath and sit down on the grass. I can't believe I said that to her. I want him to be happy and it's too late for me to make him happy. It's up to Lisa. I hope she's the one.

I check my watch. Wow. It's 3pm. My day is gone. Oh well, I have nothing planned tomorrow anyway.

I go inside and grab the popcorn bag. As I make my way to my room, I hear,

"Oh, Michael, let me show you how much I love you. "

Oh God no.... I stop in my tracks. Please don't be what I think. That'll be so damn gross. I hear,

"Lisa, I've been waiting for this day forever. "

Don't puke, Sierra.

"Michael! You're huge! "

Oh hell no! I turn on my heels and bolt out of the house. Hell to the naw! No! I run out toward the rides.

I stop and take a deep breath. That was so gross! I don't think I'll ever forget that. There has to be another phone. I'm not going back in that house.

I go to the theater. There's a phone on the wall. I go over to it. I dial Daniel's number.

"Hello? "

"Hey, Daniel. It's Sierra. "

"Oh, Hi, Sierra. What's up? "

"Nothing much. Just bored. What are you doing? "

"Picking you up in about ten minutes. "

I laugh and say, "What? "

He laughs and says, "You said you're bored. My boss gave me the rest of the day off. So, I'll see you in ten minutes. Well, nine now. "

I laugh and say, "Nine minutes. See you then. "

I hang up. I smile to myself. Daniel is a awesome friend. I have to go back inside to change. Oh God.... I can do this. I can do this.
