As expected, rehearsal was extremely awkward.
Natalie caught herself gazing at Michael unintentionally and Michael would respond with a faint smile.
"Natalie!" All of a sudden she heard Michael's voice holler.
Natalie caught herself and looked up at him. (She was on the ground stretching)
"Let's go! We're waiting on you!" Michael waved her over to her position.
And as soon as she situated herself into her spot, the music began.
"Oh no
Oh no
Oh no
You'll never make me stay
So take your weight off of me
I know your every move
So won't you just let me be
I've been here times before
But I was too blind to see
That you seduce every men
This time you won't seduce me
She's saying that's ok
Hey baby do what you please
I have the stuff that you want
I am the thing that you need
She looked me deep in the eyes
She's touchin me so to start
She says there's no turnin back
She trapped me in her heart
Dirty Diana, nah
Dirty Diana, nah
Dirty Diana, no
Dirty Diana
Let me be!
Oh no
Oh no
Oh no
She likes the boys in the bands
She knows when they come to town
Every musicians fan after
The curtain comes down
She waits at backstage doors
For those who have prestige
Who promise
Fortune and fame, a life that's so carefree
She's saying that's ok
Hey baby do what you want
I'll be your night lovin thing
I'll be the freak you can taunt
And I don't care what you say
I want to go too far
I'll be your everything
If you make me a star
Dirty Diana, nah
Dirty Diana, nah
Dirty Diana, no
Dirty Diana . . .
Dirty Diana, nah
Dirty Diana, nah
Dirty Diana, no
Dirty Diana . . .
Diana!
Diana!
Dirty Diana!
Its dia . . .aa . . .aa . . .come on!
She said I have to go home
cause I'm real tired you see
But I hate sleepin alone
Why don't you come with me
I said my babys at home
She's probably worried tonight
I didn't call on the phone to
Say that I'm alright
Diana walked up to me,
She said I'm all yours tonight
At that I ran to the phone
Sayin baby I'm alright
I said but unlock the door,
Because I forgot the key,
She said he's not coming back
Because he's sleeping with me
Dirty Diana, nah
Dirty Diana, nah
Dirty Diana, nah
Dirty Diana, no
Dirty Diana, nah
Dirty Diana, nah
Dirty Diana, nah
Dirty Diana . . .
Come on!
Come on!
Come on!
Come on!.."

After a few cuts of "Dirty Diana" and the working out of "Leave Me Alone" the crew a took a break.
"Natalie." She heard a voice from behind her.
"Michael." She shot back.
"You did really well in practice." He said, smiling.
"Thank you." She smiled back.
"I'm, uh, really excited for later." He blushed.
"Me too." Natalie was so pink now, as she looked to the floor.
"Hey, I'm gonna go grab some water and stuff." He said walking towards the table full of refreshments.
"Alright." She said under her breath, and walked toward Jaime.
"What was that......?" Jaime asked, still looking down at the table of refreshments.
"What was what?"
"That encounter with Michael....." She gave Natalie this devious look.
"Oh that...? Oh. It was, it was just nothing." A hungry Natalie stuttered.
"Sure."
"It was nothinggggg."
"Whatever you say..." Jaime rolled her eyes.
"ALRIGHT CREW! FIVE MORE MINUTES TILL WERE RUNNING THE WHOLE SHOW THROUGH." Yelled the stage manager.
Natalie looked back at Michael, and lost herself. To her surprise, he looked back and gave her a huge smile partnered by a small wink.
She felt her face turning pink.
"ALRIGHT EVERYONE!!! BREAKS OVER!!! FROM THE TOP!!!"
And rehearsals began, yet again.
