When I Say, I Love You...

Chapter 12

In the middle of recording, video filming, rehaersing and interviews, I was helping my little sister out with her career. Her first album came out a year ago and it was making the charts making over one million records. I was proud of her, the world doesn'tknow,that,she's,my half sister yet, and I haven't made,the,decision to let them know. Some are just,meant to be unknown. If she want to tell them then fine, but for as for me I'd rather not have any other unnecessary questions thrown at me every time I did a interview. People were already asking me if Michael and i are really together or is it just for fame, and now they'vecame up with the idea that Michael were only together so he can cover up the fact that he's gay. How stupid is that? Why.would someone do something that ridiculous?

It was was Keisha's birthday, so we went to our favorite restaurant. We had become very close over the years,even though we were different as far as our personality, we were also.the same as far as the way we thought. It was like we were twins or something. The restaurant was pretty much full when we got.in but the waitress found us a spot in the VIP section. I sat.down in the chair and started looking at the menu.

"Soo," she said in her little Tinkerbell tone of voice raised my eyebrow up at her."So what." Any time she said So randomly like that, it wasn't she was about to either ask me about work, upcoming events or Michael.

"I'm going on tour soon." She said with a excited smile on her face.

"Really? For how long" I asked.

"Eight months, I go after Motown 25."

I took a sip out of my orang juice."Are you nervous? " I asked.

She shook her head."No not rely, I think its good to be able to interact with the fans."

I shrugged my shoulders."Well I'll tell you one thing, it's not easy at all. Especially when you start touring these countries, and the Times are different."

She laughed light heartedly."I'm very well aware or that Aaliyah, thankyou."

I laughed."I'm just being completed honest with you, this fame life can be hard you know, take it from somebody whose been in the business since she was eight."

She gave me an ' You have a point there ' look." Yeah but you should be use to it though."

I shook my head."It takes longer then you think."

Then the waitress walked up to our table."Can I take your order?" She was a little sixteen year old, with the cutest little dimples.

"Umm, Can I have the lasgna with the salad." Keisha asked.

I gave her a look,because I was going to order the exact same thing."I will have the same." I said with a smile.

She scribbled it dawn in her notebook then smiled and walked away.

"DO you ever think about having kids?"

"What?"that question caught me off guard.

"I mean seriously, your then one whose crazy in love, and believe,Aaliyah, I can look at you and Michael and

tell y'all are meant to be together."

"Well Michael and I have talked about it from time to time, but as crazy as our careers are I doubt It'll be anytime soon. Besides, I want to be married before I start having kids." I said.

"Girl, Michael is definitely going to marry you, he ain't go his eyes set on anyone but you." She said with a huge smile on her face."I can tell he doesn't want you with anybody else, because how jealous he gets when he see you dance on those dudes in your videos"

I shook my head and blushed. "You have a point there."I.said

"I don't know about you, but that's true love to me." She said with a smile.

The waitress then came over with our food. She asked us if she could have our autographs and we signed her little notebook. Afterwards we ate and continued on talking about our plans for the future.

It quiet night at Hayvenhurst, because all of Michael's family was.either out of town or was out for the night. The maid let me in and told me Michael was in the den. I walked through the very family house turning every corner until I reached the den. In a distance I could see Michael reading the daily newspaper which was a thing that he dis everyone he got the chance. I snuck up behind him and wrapped my arms around his neck kissing him on the cheek."Hey." I said.

"hey." He said in a dead tone of voice

I knew then that something was not right with him. I walked around and sat next to him giving him my ' Whats wrong with you?' Look.

He looked up at me and read my expression." Nothing." He lied

I smirked at him."I know its something

He rolled his eyes and handed me the paper. I grabbed the paper and looked at the headline.

IS HE GAY, WOMAN HORMONES, MORE PLASTIC SURGERY? I looked at him. "Your kidding right?" I asked

He looked at me." Does it look I'm kiddimg?"he asked in a serious tone.

"This is ridiculous, baby."I said , I looked back down at the newspaper."I mean seriously, you know you never had your,lips thinned,or hour cheek bones altered. I didn't even know that was possible." I Saud." Look baby, your making a big deal.out of nothing, you know.people are gonna be righting things about you, because it's part of the career. We've been dealing with this since forever, you know that."

He rolled his eyes then turned the page and handed it to me, this article wad about me.

AALIYAH NO LEFT EYE!!!!!!!!!

I read over it and it said the reason why I wore my hair over my left was because I had,a glass eye. I altered into my laughter when I finished.

Michael.stared at me in disbelief he blinked his eyes twice."How is that funny." He asked

" Its funny because its ridiculous."

Michael shook his head," I really don't understand you right now, Liyah."

I through the paper to the side and wrapped my arms around his neck again." Look you shouldn't care what these people write about you, as long as it isn't true you shouldn't worry about it. The only thing you should be worried about is that bad and album you got out right now, and some of the works you got planned for the future not what people say about you. Okay." I said.

"Okay."

"Can we kiss on it?" I asked with a smile.

He chuckled and the pressed his soft possible lips against mine.
