Your eyes were wide, and Jade was standing in front of you - staring at Michael. For six years, you hadn't seen this man - and now, he was at your doorstep. Of course, you hadn't kept up with the news of him - so you didn't know what was going on in his life.
The two of you stared at each other, not knowing what to say.
"Hi," Michael finally breathed, his eyes moving to Jade. From the way they sparkled, you could tell that he recognized the young girl. He knew that she was his. "And, what might your name be?" he bent down to her level.
Jade opened her mouth to say something, but you gently pulled her aside.
"Jade, go upstairs to your room," you instructed her.
"Yes, mom," she responded before running toward the staircase - ascending it quickly. Once Jade had disappeared, you brought your eyes to meet Michael's.
"Jade?" he raised an eyebrow, his eyes tearing up slightly.
"Yes," you said coldly.
"That suits her perfectly," he smiled a little. "She's...gorgeous," he smiled a little. "She's got your eyes, and your smile,"
"What do you want?" you frowned.
"Can't I just be visiting?" he chuckled a little, clearly being sarcastic.
"No," you flashed him a fake smile.
"Listen, I know that you hate me-"
"That's an understatement," you mumbled.
"(Y/N)," he said your name, and after six years - it still managed to make your heart race slightly. Michael had always been the one you loved, and despite the fact that you hadn't seen him for six long years - your heart still beat for him.
"What?" you spat slightly.
"Listen...I just....there's something that I need you to know," he shook his head. "Something that I should have told you after you moved out," he closed his eyes before opening them again. "Can we talk?"
"No," you responded quickly.
"Look, hate me as much as you want - I just...need you to know," he sighed. "I need to get this off my chest,"
"Tough luck," you laughed a little. "Six years ago, you blatantly told me that you didn't want me," you scoffed. "What makes you think that I'll give you a chance to speak?" you bit your lip. "Besides, how the hell did you know that I lived here?"
"Frank, he told me," he studied your features. "(Y/N)...I know that you hate me, and I'm fine with that. But I need you to know that...when I said I didn't want you...it wasn't true,"
Your eyes widened, and you opened your mouth to say something - but Luisa and Dan had arrived.
"What the hell?!" Luisa exclaimed, making Michael turn around to face her. She clenched her jaw and slapped him. "What the hell are you doing here?!"
Dan held Luisa back as she attempted to hit him again.
"Did he hurt you?!" Luisa looked at you.
"No," you shook your head.
"All I wanted to do was talk to her," Michael sneered at Luisa.
"Hey," Dan stepped forward, protecting his wife. "Come on man, chill,"
"Besides, this matter is between (Y/N) and I," Michael turned his head back to face you.
You rolled your eyes slightly, looking away.
"(Y/N)-" Michael took a step forward to grab your hand - but Dan stopped him.
"Don't touch her," Dan studied Michael's features intently. "Leave," he ordered.
"I..." Michael trailed off.
"Leave," Dan repeated, making Michael sigh in defeat. Quickly, he shoved his hands into the pockets of his pants - fishing out a small card.
"The phone number extension is written there," he said lowly. "Hopefully...we can talk this out," he looked away. "I'm sorry," he said before turning around - walking away.
"Did he hurt you?" Dan walked up to you.
"No," you smiled a little. "Thank you guys," you bit your lip. "For being supportive,"
"Of course we would be!" Luisa exclaimed. "We're family now!"
You giggled a little as Jade ran down the staircase.
"Aunt Luisa!" she exclaimed, running into your best friend's arms.
"Wow, I feel the love," Dan remarked playfully, making Jade look at him.
"I still love you too, Uncle Dan," she grinned.
As you stood there, watching the people you loved - your mind began to wander to the card that Michael had given you. Holding it tightly in your hands - you exhaled deeply. You were very interested in what he had to say.
~•♡•~
Later on that evening, you were seated at the edge of Jade's bed, running your fingers through your daughter's hair as she laid there. Her long, black hair, was gorgeous. She was gorgeous.
Dan and Luisa had gone out for dinner, so it was just you and your precious angel.
Jade stared up at you, her big eyes sparkling.
"Mom, do you ever...miss dad?" she bit her lip nervously. "Do you ever wish that he was around again?"
You broke into a soft giggle, shaking your head.
"I do miss him," you responded. "A lot. Sometimes, I wish that he were still here," you thought about how Michael had told you that he didn't want you, all those years ago. "But...God had other plans,"
"Do I remind you of dad?" she questioned again.
"Yes," you smiled. "You remind me of him, very much," you inhaled deeply. "You're kind, like him - and you're smart like him," you leaned over, kissing her forehead.
"Thanks, mom," she said as her eyes began to close. "I love you,"
"I love you more," you whispered as she fell asleep.
Standing up quietly, you turned around and walked out of the bedroom, shutting the door behind you.
Fiddling with your fingers, you made your way down to the living room. Inhaling deeply, you fished into the pockets of your jeans - revealing the card that Michael had given you.
Walking over to the telephone, you picked up the receiver and began to dial the number. You didn't know what you were thinking, but you did it anyway.
The line rang for a few seconds before you heard someone pick up.
"Hello?" the familiar male voice greeted you.
Michael.
"Hi, is this Michael Jackson?" you inquired.
"Yes," he responded.
"Michael...this is (Y/N)," you breathed.
The man stayed silent for a brief moment before speaking again.
"(Y/N)..." he trailed off. "What made you decide to call?"
"I changed my mind," you kept your voice firm. "Let's talk,"
