Partners {Michael Jackson}

Y/N

I stared at Michael, wide-eyed to the fact that he has confessed his love for me. What the actual fuck? That can't be true. My heart is for Alex... but now... I'm not sure. "Co-come again?" I stuttered, reminiscing the last four words he said.

Michael looked at me with despair. I could tell he was embarrassed. The redness from his cheeks started to show a little more. "Just... I... Let it go, Y/N. It's not worth explaining." he replied. The hell is not?

"No. No, I'm not going to let it go. You just stood here and basically spilled your beans about your love for me. Though... I don't see how. Since you've been me treating like shit for the past five years!" I commented.

"Well, what goes around... comes around, Y/N. Ever thought about what you did to make me treat you like shit?" "THAT'S WHAT I AM TRYING TO FIGURE OUT!" "THERE'S NO NEED FOR YOU TO YELL!" he shouted. I'm about tired of his bull.

"Then tell me. What did I do? What did I do?! That's all I want to know! I'm tired... I'm tired of this. Tired of you. Tired of not knowing what the hell is up. Why me, Michael? Huh? Why? Why can't you just tell me?" I asked. Practically begged as tears formed through my eyes. Michael's figure was glossy as I waited for him to respond.

"You... hurt me, Y/N. To the point where I felt like dying. You mean to tell me you don't remember what you said about me?" Michael asked, sniffling himself. "Michael... it was five years ago. How can I remember?" I questioned. "Because you don't give a damn about anyone but yourself. I remember that day like it happened yesterday. I was going to ask you out. But, then I heard your conversation with Chelsea. The things you said about me. How I was a loser.. regretting to be my friend. You don't remember saying that? And on that very same day, our friendship was done."

Oh my God... I remembered... I'm such a bitch.

I looked at him. I saw the pain through his eyes. I can't believe this. I'm the reason. Now I regretted saying those things I've said about Michael over the years. And... he still loves me.  "Mich-"

"No... save the apology. I don't need it. I don't want it. I just want you out of my life. Since you now know why."

Michael walked away, not looking back. Me, on the other hand, stood there and watched. What am I doing? Go after him!

"Michael! Please! Wait!" I shouted, running after him. I saw him about to leave the building. I needed to catch up to him.

"HEY!" I yelled through the hallway. Michael paused, without turning around to face me. "I'm sorry. I'm deeply, outrageously, tremendously sorry. I was young. I was stupid. I'm a total bitch. You have every right to be pissed at me...." I explained, walking slowly up to him. Michael  stood there, but I continued.

"I understand if you don't want to deal with me, anymore. Because I don't deserve your love or friendship. But I want you to know.. from the bottom of my heart. I am sorry." I cried, grabbing his hand. I gently grabbed the side of his cheek, forcing him to look at me. Tears swelled through his eyes as I cried with him.

"You don't understand how long I've been waiting for you to say that." Michael said. I smiled small, pulling him for a well warm embrace.

Does that mean I love him, too?

Chapter 16 is up next...

So... Y/N finally got the answer she was looking for. Though it was her fault. This is actually a love triangle because not only she loves Alex... but she might be in love with Michael. I guess going back to the past, leads you to your future. But... who are you? TeamAlex or TeamMichael?
