I suddenly changed my mind about telling him!

"Peyton, you wanted to tell me something? you've not said anything for three minutes!" Michael said laughing. I sat there staring at him like an idiot, he snapped his fingers and yells my name and i snap out of it.

"Ohh it must not have been important because i forgot what it was!" i said with a fake laugh. Michael just looked at me and raised one eyebrow.

"Okay, if ya think of it let me know, i will be in the dance studio." Michael shot me a wink before he walked away. Why didnt i just tell him! it's two in the morning and he is dancing! he knows something is up with up or else he would've went to bed. I will just wait until morning. I went and told Michael i was going to lay down we told each other goodnight and hugged and kissed each other (on the cheeck). I layed in my bed for hours just thinking what he was going to say when i tell him. It was 5:45am when i feel asleep it seemed like i only slept for an hour until my clock went off at 9:30am. I get up take a shower get dressed do my hair and makeup, if i'm going to tell Michael how i feel i want to look good! I walk down stairs to see Michael playing with Prince and Paris in the play area. Michael see's me coming.

"Wow Peyton! where you going lookin all beautiful!?" He said with a smile on his face.

"Ohh no where i just felt like cleaning myself up today is all." I walked over to the coffee pot and poured me a cup of coffee and out of the corner of my eye i saw Michael staring at me smiling, my heart started to pound faster and faster!

"Hey um Peyton... since you're cleaned up what do ya say i clean up and we go out to dinner tonight?"

"Ohh that sounds nice! where to? Italian? Mexican? chinese?"

"I'm feeling like.. italian!" He said and snapped his fingers. We both laughed at how silly that was. I was drinking my coffee and Prince walked up to me.

"Peypey, daddy says he wants you to be my new mommy!"

"Ahhh he does!? i asked in a baby voice. Prince looked at me and shook his head and laughed then asked for juice. I gave prince his juice in his cup and he went back to playing. Hours went by and finally it was 8:00pm

"Peyton lets go i made reservations for us at 8:25 we only have 25 minutes to get there! Michael yelled. I was upstairs doing some touchups on my makeup.

"I'm on the way mr. Rusher!" i said laughing coming down the stairs. Michael looked at me and smiled.

"Woww, you look beautiful Peyton!"

"Thank you, it comes naturally!" We both laughed at my silliness and went to dinner. We had dinner in a beautiful resturant private booth, candlelit, flowers, and charming music. Michael and I had a wonderful time, on the way home we laughed and pushed each other around the limo and we watched rugrats on the tv. We finally made it back to neverland, we went inside and sat down on the sofa. Okay now is my chance, i'm going to tell him how i feel!

"Mike, i remember what i was going to tell you now." i said neverously. Michael looked at me and smiled.

"About time, i thought you would never remember!" he said laughing. So what is it you want to tell me?" I take a deep breathe and look into his eyes.

"Well michael, i've got these...um... well these.. um..."

"Spit it out!" he said laughing. I giggle and look at him again.

"Okay, Michael i have these feelings for you, i've had them for a long time now and i've been to scared to tell you, and i thought now would be a good time to do it so yea...thats what i wanted to say!" I look at Michael neverously while he just sits there staring at me, its like he didnt hear what i said or something. What did i do? Oh no i made a mistake telling him this! Michael looks at me for another minute.

"Mike? are you okay? did i freak you out? you're not saying anything!" i said neverously.

"Peyton..I..I..um... i'm actually speechless.. i dont know what to say really. You have had these feelings for a long time huh?"

"Yea actually i have, ever since we first started getting close." I told him

"So for seven years then?" he said smiling.

"Um..yea since 1990 its 1997 now so yea for seven years." Michael looks at me and smiles, his smile was bright enough to light up the whole room. He stands up grabs me pulls me off the sofa.

"Peyton, thats funny because um... i've um.. well i've had um... feelings for you since i first layed eyes on you backstage in 1988!" He said while rubbing my face gently. Wait Michael has had feelings for me for that long! How did i not notice! Why didnt i tell him sooner!As i was getting ready to say something Michael cut me off.

"Michael i..

"Shh dont say anything!" Michael grabs my face and gently rubs his thumb across my eyebrow and leans down for a kiss. He kissed me so passionatly we kissed for exactly three minutes. It was so amazing how everything went! we went to bed and hugged each other all night we didnt let go until morning. It's been two months since Michael and I shared our feelings for each other, we are still together and going strong in fact we are expecting! I cant wait to raise my little family with Michael! We are happy and we will always be!
