Michael's love

Finding out

Michael went to the bathroom and changed into Black PJs with planets, moons, and stars on them.

Michael was really tired. He was working day and night yesterday, so he fell asleep on the floor. I picked him up, he was heavy, and put him in my bed so he would be comfortable.
I heard a knock on my door. Michael was sleeping so he probably didn't hear the knock. I tiptoed to the door, making sure I don't wake up Michael.
I opened the door slowly.
It was Ashley.
"Heeeyy!"
"Shh"
"What?"
"Uh, nothing"
"Wanna hang out today or tomorrow?"
"No.."
"Why?!"
"I just wanna spend some time in peace"
"You got a boyfriend?"
"No"
Michael wasn't my boyfriend, we were just friends, besides us making out.....
"Then what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing... I just want time in peace"
"You aren't normally like this, Lavender! Tell me whats wrong!"
"Just... leave me.... alone"
I started getting annoyed. Can't she just leave?
"Just let me-"
I cut her off
"Leave"
I pointed to the door. I never felt so mean in my life.
Ashley gave me a sad, disgusted, and angry look, and went out the door.
I got a little stressed and shut the door slowly as she walked out.
At the same moment, Michael yawned and got out of bed to find me.
Ashley was still by the door, probably eavesdropping to figure out why I didn't want to hang out with her.
"Lavender!"
Michael called out to me.
"Yeah, Michael!" I called back out.
And then we both ran to each other.
We hugged, I could feel his soft clothes against my arms. I was relieved.
I heard the door creak. I didn't think of it as much. And the door opened, Michael started looking at the door, and I looked at it after.
Who was at the door?
It was Ashley. She heard everything me and Michael said.
"Lavender! Who's that?"
Ashley called to me. I quickly hid Michael in the fastest, and best hiding place I could find—that room under the stairs.
I wasn't quick enough. Ashley saw Michael before I hid him.
"Lavender! Michael Jackson's your boyfriend?"
Ashley was a loyal friend. Which was good sometimes, but it wasn't at this moment. She could be friends with the king of pop, but she would rather hang out with me. She was jealous of Michael. He was getting all the attention. But yet, 24 hours ago, she was screaming at Michael. Now, she's jealous as fuck.
"So this is why you didn't want to hang out with me. Because you got a boyfriend, specifically, Michael Jackson"
"Ashley, please understand-"
She cut me off.
"Understand what? That you don't want to hang out with me because of your quote unquote "boyfriend"? Is this why?"
"No, Ashley! I just wanna spend time with him. We'll probably never do this again, he's really busy. He's not even my boyfriend! We just met yesterday, and we're just hanging out! But don't worry, I'll hang out with you another day!"
Ashley's mood didn't budge.
"Lavender, this friendship, its not working out-"
I cut her off.
"Well it would if you'd understand! But if you want it like that, then, goodbye!"
I shut the door in her face. She got angry at me, but even more angry at Michael. More tabloids......
I started to get angry at her too, and stressed. I just lost my best friend because I hung out with Michael. Ugh..
I walked to Michael's hiding space and opened the door so he could get out.
"What happened?" He asked me.
"Well me and Ashley got in a fight because I was hanging out with you instead of her-"
"Lavender! I'm so sorry, I'll leave. I didn't mean to hurt your friendship"
His face turned red in embarrassment and he covered it with his hands.
"Michael no! You don't have to leave, it's not your fault"
"No Lavender, it's fine, you don't have to tell me this, I'll just leave, and it'll all be fine"
"Michael! I've already lost Ashley, but she's not that important, and I don't wanna lose you"
He uncovered his face and I hugged him.
"Michael, I'm sorry"
